Quite inofficial revamp of the whole wiki. Any opinions are appreciated! Always!

BlogEdit

This blog is currently my only way to disperse my ideas of the reconstruction, and really ought to be read!

About meEdit

I am, just like the vast majority on this site, a complete and utter language nerd. Languages and lingustics are a dying art. Many satisfy, especially in the UK and US, with their native English. In my country, Sweden, the case is similar, and we tend to settle with learning one foreign language - English.

My signature is simply a translation of Quod erat demonstrandum into Nāmic - Royal Arms of Atzlā.png kyām dēkәr 21:03, April 8, 2012 (UTC)

To do...Edit

To Remember...Edit

  • Personal demonstratives; compared to proximal-distal ones.
  • Simple active-stative distinction.
  • Gender-based conjugation.
  • Collective standard number.
  • Aspect-richness through periphrasis.
  • Some fun diatheses...

To Remember for NāmicEdit

  • Word derivation.
  • Complete phonotactics.
  • Lexemes with initial "ә-" receive the plural form "-ni".
  • Transitive word order may be OVS in question?
  • Word order should be altered to be Np-Vp, rather than mixed.
  • Remove the future tense and replace.

LanguagesEdit

I have decided to implement the full Neumatic League of languages, all inspired by different language families, though with great similarities in between. They all have the same foundation, lexically, but differences in grammar and phonology. Sooner or later, all these languages will be represented on the site.

Neumatic LeagueEdit

Naṃkrthāvāka - an Indo-European and Indo-Iranian influenced language.

{C}Nūi Nhā - a Polynesian inspired language.

Atzlā ātlau - an Uto-Aztecan language, with features from my old languages.

Ddánna Náir - a Celtic inspired language.

Мıpсκя Иaɔьyκa (Mırskya Jazȷyka) - a language with Slavic influences.

QuotationsEdit

I also have horrible fascination of quotes, and there's a reason why they intrigue me, you know why?

The next best thing to being clever is being able to quote someone who is. - Mary Pettibone Poole

I like quoting Einstein. Know why? Because nobody dares contradict you. - Studs Terkel

Από τον ΘαλήEdit

Τί πρότερον γεγόνοι, νὺξ ἢ ἡμέρα; νύξ, μιᾷ ἡμέρᾳ πρότερον.

"What is older, day or night? Night is older, by one day."

Τί καινὸν εἴη τεθεαμένος; Γέροντα τύραννον.

"What is rarely seen? An aged tyrant."

Τί εὔκολον; Τὸ ἄλλῳ ὑποτίθεσθαι.

"What is easy? To counsel another."

- Thales
