Today we're going to be working on names in Dawn and Dusk. I want to get a general idea of how they work and what sources they'll come from. Stream in 30 minutes! #conlang #language #linguistics #dnd #ttrpg youtube.com/live/kVxM-u_...

I spent one hour writing down particles for my conlang instead of studying german. This is why I am still kinda crap at german, in case anyone was wondering.

Tongues and Runes S2E63 We are going to continue working on documentation for Dawn and Dusk. I think I want to do some work on articles: when exactly they are used and what they mea...

In 30 minutes we go back into Faerie to talk more about Dawn and Dusk. I think I'll be working a bit on how articles are used, since those are a new feature after Middle Fae and I want to have some guidelines established. #conlang #language #linguistics youtube.com/live/NxNL-z6...

Tongues and Runes S2E60 Gonna switch focus today and make sure that we get our initial mutation tables done. Maybe if we are good kids and finish that, we'll have time for another a...

The turn of the year Thanks to @MadelineJamesWorldbuilds for the prompt, and to @LangTimeStudio, @Biblaridion, and @LetsHaveaBouba for a fun month of word prompts.What word did y...

It’s the last day of #lexember, and our prompt from @madelinejames.bsky.social was “something associated with the turn of the year. A bit of a challenge when my speakers live in an eternally frozen day.

A word for the elders What societal role did you name today? Thanks to @MadelineJamesWorldbuilds for the prompt.

Our second to last prompt from @madelinejames.bsky.social is “A role in society”. #lexember

Do not eat Faerie food until.... What greeting did you create today?Thanks to @MadelineJamesWorldbuilds for the prompt!

@madelinejames.bsky.social’s prompt for today was “a formal greeting”. This is among the most important things you might hear in Faerie. #lexember Do not eat Faerie food until....

An amulet What culturally relevant clothing or symbol did you name today?Thanks to @MadelineJamesWorldbuilds for the prompt.

Today’s prompt from @madelinejames.bsky.social was “Ceremonial or symbolic article of clothing/symbol”. This one led to what I feel is a cool worldbuilding moment. #lexember

What the Fae value What cultural value are you describing today?Thanks to @MadelineJamesWorldbuilds for the prompt.

Our first prompt from @madelinejames.bsky.social is “A societal/cultural value”. The Fae may or may not be very like humans for this one. #lexember What the Fae value

We are starting @madelinejames.bsky.social’s prompts today. He theme is all about society and culture. Be prepared to do a little extra worldbuilding these last few days #lexember

Tongues and Runes S2E54 We'll be finishing up our patron name animals so that we can hit the ground running in developing out Dawn and Dusk in the new year!Enjoy Tongues and Runes? ...

I’m going live in about 30 minutes to finish out our patron names for Khyisfafȕ. Getting ready to roll into 2026 and serious work on the Dawn and Dusk dialects #conlang #language #linguistics www.youtube.com/live/1PhUrf0...

A word with two paths. What astronomical phenomenon did you name today?Thanks to @Biblaridion for the prompt.

Today’s prompt is the last from @biblaridion.bsky.social, “an astronomical phenomenon”. You’re going to get two words for one (well, kinda three words), due to diverging senses. #lexember

May your sky be pwukhža What weather condition will you describe today?Thanks to @Biblaridion for the prompt.

Today is another prompt by @biblaridion.bsky.social, “A weather condition.” #lexember

A very dry word. What biome or landscape did you name today? Thanks to @Biblaridion for the prompt.

Today's prompt from @biblaridion.bsky.social is "A kind of biome or landscape." It's a dry one for me! #lexember youtube.com/shorts/-lfrF...

The thing no man is What oceanic landform did you name today? Thanks to @Biblaridion for the prompt.

Today's prompt from @biblaridion.bsky.social was "an oceanic landform". My word is pretty conventional. #lexember youtu.be/Wz2THgHbMZA?...

What does a mountain eat? What landform did you name today? Thanks to @Biblaridion for the prompt.

Our first prompt from @biblaridion.bsky.social is "a terrestrial landform". Let's learn a little about how Fae think about land in the process. #lexember youtube.com/shorts/kQ-JZ...

Our next set of prompts is from the great Biblaridion. He's taken a theme that I would call Earth and Sky. Be ready to start them tomorrow! #lexember

May I have.... What kind of gift did you name today? Thanks to Jake of @LetsHaveaBouba for the prompt.

Jake's final prompt is "Something you'd give as a gift." My thought is... unconventional. #lexember youtube.com/shorts/Z-Xs_...

A graphic showing the word “nguza” in the Valya script, as well as the translation “climb.”

A graphic showing four Valya words and phrases with transliterations and translations. They are “ksunguza,” meaning “ladder” or “stairs;” “ksunguza tarku,” meaning “stairs;” “ksunguza klafiri” and “ksunguza ksütüsu,” both meaning “ladder.”

Today’s #Lexember word is *nguza*, meaning “climb” in Valya. The word *ksunguza* is derived from it, meaning “stairs” or “ladder.” There are various ways of distinguishing those if you need them!

What to call your faerie loved ones What term of endearment did you coin? Thanks to Jake of⁨ ⁨@LetsHaveaBouba for the prompt!

Today’s prompt from Jake is “A term of endearment”. I’ve got a couple structural options I can slot words into. #lexember
