Another interesting way to generate words: try acting as if other languages borrowed your words, then reanalyze the results This is how "anime" came to be. Japanese took "animation" shortened it to "anime" and that word was reincorporated into english. Another example: karaoke. Japanese took "orchestra" turned it onto "oke" and put "empty" (kara) in front. Then the word was taken back into english with the pronunciation changed drastically once more

What I like to do is write down a normal, everyday conversation between people who speak my conlang, and then translate it into said conlang. Maybe two neigbours talking about current events, or someone buying food from a market and having a little convo with a vendor, or maybe a family having a discussion at the dinner table. It helps flesh out both the world and the language at the same time.

16:24 I love the hamburguer example because we reanalized again in portuguese. The word "cheese" sound a lot like the name we give the letter X, /ʃis/ so in brazil, we turned cheeseburger into X-burguer. And then we replaced "burguer" with the flavor. X-bacon, x-salada, or my favorite X-tudo (everything burguer)

16:10 Banana > Banan-er > to banan

An interesting cross language reanalysis example: in portuguese it's common to call a burger a "xis" (aka the name of letter x), and then attach a word representing the type of burger to the ending, like x-ovo (burger with an egg) or x-frango (chicken burger). The funny thing is that xis comes from the english cheese, as in cheeseburger.

Some more tips I have are: * avoid single-word definitions; in fact, have both a field for a more detailed definition as well as one for how that word might be translated into the metalanguage * more controversially, always role-mark arguments of a verb; for instance, the definition for *triłit* in Ŋarâþ Crîþ v9 is ‘(S) recommends (I) to do (O)’. In fact, I even do this for some nouns, such as *nalda*, which has the definitions ‘the boundary between the interior and exterior of (GEN)’ and ‘a bound on the quantity of (GEN)’. * whenever you coin a word, look up the definition of the metalanguage equivalent in the dictionary to get a feel for the senses in which it can be used

So pavement gets damp when it's spitting with rain, but becomes moist when it's bucketing rain; (living) moss is always damp, but becomes quite slippery when moist; and clothes are moist when you pull them out of a bucket of water, but are damp when moving them from the washing line to the drier in the afternoon.

fantastic content! ive never heard of conlang before but now im all in thanks to you

For me, i use the just do it method for choosing sounds, though i don’t think them up; i usually just speak gibberish until i find something i like and or fits with the meaning of that word. And i also obscure natlang words, though this is also mixed with random inspiration in the form of references or jokes hidden in the lexicon (though at times it is a bit too obvious). And also if you were wondering what i edited, i added paragraphs instead of it just being a block of text (along with a few grammatical mistakes).

Gonna start a conlang now. It's quite easy for me to just come up with any random sound, so before I do that, I'm just gonna set out random rules of the language as it comes to mind. Then as I develop it further, I'll contextualize it and see what would drift, how common words are, if any of the rules would be too inconvenient for native speakers, if specific applications of the rules difficult to speak, etc.

As for "random inspiration", one of my friends once saw so much advertisement from random companies with nonsensical names that he started keeping a list of them, and ended up with over a hundred such names. I ended up using a few of them as words.

7:43 another problem with the Swadesh list (if your making a naturalistic conlang) is that it presumes the words listed to be core vocabulary and unchanging. This is untrue, the word ‘woman’ is a good example. In English it came from a compound that replaced the original word: OE wīf mann (women person) > ME woman. Incidentally, the original word ‘wīf’ changed semantically itself to modern English ‘wife’. Similar things happen all the time in many natural languages.

I think the swadesh list is probably a good place to start for a basic lexicon, even when taking your mentioned caveats into account. As it includes a lot of very basic words, you can also start building compound words from those, as quite a lot of contemporary words are just compounded words from other languages (for English). It would also be neat to have a list of proto-Indo-European words, both for generation purposes, but also as sort of a basic list of roots to start from.

Regarding translation and loanwords, one anecdote I read once (maybe in a youtube comment?) was a persons first language arabic parents replacing the 'al' at the start of a word with 'the' in speech, so a word like "alzheimer's" becomes "the zheimer's".

I have several go-to dictionaries for my conlangs, that have words that sound right for my languages' phonologies. I mostly use Sumerian and Basque because they are very little known, and then scramble up the meanings and sounds a bit.

"one who serves the algorithm" earned a like and sub right there.

I have to say that generators are a deep subject. I mean, not only do you need to be able to generate a class III(c) verb borrowed from Western Fn%pqq^ (remember those trade routes!) after the consonant rotation but before the second spelling reform, but ideally (er, right) you'd be able to generate the _existence_ of class III(c) borrowings from Fn%pqq^. Um, let me try and reverse that thought into something useful. It's fun to work out your classes and cryptoclasses and make them _parameters_ to the generation process. This even makes things like lists of conserved words useful again: they should be statistically different from borrowings. Similarly, it's nice if there are statistical patterns relating phonology to inflectional and selectional subregularities. If nothing else it gives you something to feel smug about.

I appreciate the use of lungs when you say inspiration:)

Showing interest

A method I like is choosing phonotactic constraints, then trying to make words through onomatopoeia that fit the constraints

Ok, so the first thing I'm doing with my mermaid language is translating The Little Mermaid.

I think that the very first rule for creating words is the length. The second is using realistic sound combination, and consistent combination frequency patterns.

The best words sound like their meaning, which makes them easier to remember and easier to understand. English has a lot of these - Ocean. Spiky. Bubble. Soothing. (to name a few)

For words I need I start thinking about what words will definitely be needed, I happened to start with translating fruit. Then for some I agreed that referring to color is good, so I started making colors, I also try to make example sentences, I randomly thought of a word and decided it HAD to be the word for "to fly" so then I figured out how to make my first sentence structure and thought of what words I'd need for that :D

Man you're impressive

My technique is to create an analytic protolanguage with ~100 basic words, generate compounds and use a basic grammar, and then evolve that language into 3 or so descendant languages, with the ocassional word borrowing if the history allows for it.

Thanks!

I don't do whole conlangs, but 1.5 is a method I use a lot for names. Here are a couple of my favorites: My family likes to mispronounce Cereal. From that I got "Cyrril." Someone playing games on KZread was having trouble navigating around a door. From their quote "Door negotiation" I got Dornigoche. Baby talk with my cat turned "Stretch" into "Skwetch" which is a great name for a goblin or kobold.

Okay, I don't know about "burgle", but "sculpt" as a verb definitely follows a pattern of deriving the verb from the past participle, and -or was a Latin suffix. I haven't researched it, but I'm confident that both "sculpt" and "sculptor" are derived from the same verb "sculpere", using Latin derivational morphology: sculpere > sculptus (stem sculpt-) > sculptor. No back-formation required.

2:43 « I died »😂

I personally use AIs to generate the word "forest" in 50 languages, I choose 4-10 words that I like the sound or how they look, an then ask the bot to combine them in many different forms, also changing some things by myself, until I have a word that I like.

A big problem I've run into in my conlang is making words managable. I'm using method 3, as I want the language to give the impression of being Indo-European in descent and particularly close to scandinavian and celtic languages, so I start each word by reducing it to its PIE roots, referencing Irish, Gaelic, or scandinavian versions of the word, and putting together those root concepts. But this frequently leads me to make several base words that I instinctively combine to form more complex words, and those rapidly get cumbersome.

How I do it is by making random monosyllable words which I will in turn use to make giant words, like how in Sonpe Pra Dindi, Bihesavnhekan, or air domesticated land animal means chicken.

Another option is to take a root word and put it through a series of phonetic transformations.

To be fair to -or, it's technically productive as it is just -er for verbs with a state/action noun form ending in -ion, so any words created with that ending will have an -or suffix. So Funimation staff are Funimators rather than Funimaters (because they aren't fun to... you get the idea).
