schwa
whyyy

leaden latch
#

because lojban, I suppose

north saffron
#

also for esun i'd replace "for reason" with "from"

#

because esun is trade first and foremost not just purchase

#

and instead of "price" do like
x1 gets x2 from x3 in exchange for x4
or maybe
x1 and x2 trade, the former giving x3, the latter x4
idk

#

also x1 is a [] of species/breed x2 doesn't feel very doable unless with loans

#

also also i know lojban has a ton of arguments but i don't think it does for reason often

#

prepositions exist

north saffron
#

:°

#

hmm for ijo idk if you should have "noun"

#

since lojban doesn't really have nouns

#

i'd also argue against "object", instead making it a fully generic preposition, but that's not a fully standard take

#

see:

#

... ijo

The word ijo is often defined as "thing", which implies that it only refers to inanimate objects. However, it's common to use it for animals and people too¹, and some even use it as a generic verb (instead of pali)². A more apt single-word definition might be "jawn"³ or "smurf"⁴.

i wanted to make something like this first :(

#

except like, its a loglang, not really a lojban clone

umbral grail
#

i don't like lojban

#

i mean i do but i don't like it as much as i like toaq

north saffron
#

tonal loglang where the tones do grammar stuff

#

marking part of speech sorta

true drum
#

new roots added for wan, tu, san, po, kulu, likujo

#

should 5 be luka?

#

my

#

ok

#

pi is a word

#

so 8 should be different as well

#

ok

true drum
#

should la end lo/laj nouns

#

joking proposal: 0-ki, 1-je, 2-te, san, ta, ka, lu, po, lin, pin

#

more serious proposal would be something featural, e.g. vowels being aeiuoaeiuo to mark divisibility by 5

#

but we don't have enough consonants for that i don't think so maybe seximal
