Hey #writers and #conlangers! I've enjoyed participating in these #writing #hashtaggames, and thought of hosting my own. Anyone up for a month of daily #conlang building prompts in November?

#conlang #conlangers where can I find #conscript people here!
Hey #conlangers. How do you say, "to feel love is to feel alive" in your conlang?
In Puca, it's: Ka i cin sa ona e uta ẹlu.
literally: To have people in your heart is to live.
#conlang
an empty and hot room =
kawa koronda mahini
a blue and grey car =
kare sẹlundan ahi
kare sẹludan ahi
What do you think flows better? #conlang #conlangers
Hey, hey, #conlangers. What's the word that expresses "disability" in your conlang?
Just woke up from a nap and had the weirdest thought. We know dogs can learn and understand the meaning of words. Are there any #linguists or #conlangers out there who have tried to create a language that would be speakable with a dogs mouth, throat, and vocal chords?
Language creators and #conlangers: What are some ideas for ways we can use our #conlangs to help with all this... everything?
#PeriApocalypticConlanging
Where are my #conlangers at? who does #nationstates?
As I’m on here, I’m learning that I have the possibility to make a new… persona? A customisable timeline of all things?
I am hoping to find enough #conlangers on here to influence me on enjoying the hobby again in the midst of my brain currently on survival mode and cyber security.

For the people who like #conlangs or #worldbuilding, I made a special feed for #conlangers!

#conlang #conlangers can someone explain consonant harmony like I’m five? Trying to do nasal harmony for a language and worried I’m messing up and also losing my mind reading the Wikipedia article on consonant harmony.
Update: Looks like the subdomains were restored but not pushing new changes. I tried to add a new page to one of my hosted sites but it still errors instead of displaying what I just uploaded (persists upon multiple and spaced-out refreshes).

The LCS subdomains are currently not viewable. You can FTP in but that’s it. I’ve let them know.
