#Supergirl has been out a week or so, so I figured it’s time to release all the #conlang dialogue @quothalinguist.bsky.social and I translated. Lots of #Kryptonian plus three new full languages and four conlang sketches. A LOT of work, but a lot of fun! archiveofourown.org/works/88310311

That goal was the worst thing I’ve ever seen in soccer—and I saw Germany beat Saudi Arabia 8-0 24 years ago.

Here’s the #HighValyrian dialogue from episode 303 of #HouseOfTheDragon: archiveofourown.org/works/871702... #conlang #language #Valyrian

Today is the third episode of #HouseOfTheDragon, so for fun I thought I’d do a post of some of the dragon names we’ve seen thus far in #highvalyrian (both in the orthography and in the romanization). #conlang #hotd #asoiaf #dragons

FML Norway 1 Brazil 0 #WorldCup

I’m getting up to go to the bathroom right now, so everyone get ready for the first goal in #NORVBRA It always happens to me. #WorldCup

I post #conlang dialogue from the various shows and films I work on on #Ao3 ( @archiveofourown.org ). Latest is the #HighValyrian dialogue from #HouseOfTheDragon for episode 302: archiveofourown.org/works/871702... #Valyrian

Gen A.I. barons want us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to build hell and have us pay for it.

Today’s the day! #HouseOfTheDragon season 3 premieres today, and the last #Valyrian glyph for the lead up is munnon “sorrow”. Hope you have a chance to watch today! #conlang #hotd #asoiaf #language

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is ñelly "flesh”. An odd word, but I did get some use of it. The season 3 premiere of #HouseOfTheDragon is TOMORROW! #conlang #language #hotd #highvalyrian #asoiaf

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is sēnagon “to kill” whose long vowel has always irked me. I wish it had been short… #conlang #language #highvalyrian #hotd #houseofthedragon

Good GOD. #WorldCup #Mexico

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is ñuqir “ash”. I feel like this is a word I’ll never forget. Kind of seemed obvious when I coined it: ñuqir. Can’t say why. #conlang #language #highvalyrian #asoiaf #hotd #houseofthedragon

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is qlādugon “to drag”. The glyph itself is an image of a farming tool being dragged through the earth. #conlang #language #asoiaf #hotd #houseofthedragon

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is lōta “solid”. This glyph may look familiar as it’s essentially an inverted <s>. It actually represents a tripod, which is a solid/stable structure. #conlang #language #hotd #houseofthedragon #asoiaf

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is gīmigon “to know”. This is a useful word that shows up a lot. It’s specifically for knowing information, not a person. #conlang #language #hotd #houseofthedragon #asoiaf

CuraWOW. #WorldCup

ppl who shit on sports to prove socialism credentials are extremely funny, like genuinely

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is lioragon “to sell”. Again, I expected this glyph to enjoy a lot more use throughout the various series than it’s gotten. Nice one, though. I like the word and the glyph. #conlang #language #hotd #houseofthedragon

This kid has yet to be impressed. #NBA

The only Finals game the Knicks lost was the one with Trump in attendance. lol.

Ecstatic to see our original Sun Mikal Bridges win a championship. Just wish it had been with us. 😢 #NBA @sunsphx.bsky.social

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is iemny “stomach”. I Iike the way this one looks. #conlang #language #hotd #houseofthedragon

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is nerny “door”. It enjoys a lot of use as a determinative. Don’t think I’ve gotten to use it in a script yet… #conlang #language #HotD #HouseOfTheDragon

In the lead-up to the season 3 premiere of #HouseOfTheDragon, I thought I’d release some more #Valyrian glyphs. Today’s glyph is grevy “wheel”. #conlang #language #hotd

Haaaaaaaaaaa I walked in the room to see him get booed, haaaaaaa

Btw this is where I live. We are currently evacuated, but this has been done as a precaution. Even if there is an explosion, it likely will not be a catastrophic event, as the chemical in question is heavy, and very much WANTS to fall rather than disperse. The area of effect will likely be minimal.

For my local OC folks.

The Internet is disappearing before our very eyes and it’s why we should all support that absolutely critical work of @archive.org

Now that the #WNBA is back in full swing, it’s time for a new edition of my one of my all time favorite past times: sports logo ranking—WNBA edition! The W has some of my all time favorite logos—and a couple of my all time least favorite. Here goes!

@dedalvs.bsky.social I maintain that high valyrian is some of your finest work

We’ll share more at some point, but for those curious about our #conlang work in #ProjectHailMary, I did a video overview about how a musical conlang could work for my YouTube channel a while back. This kind of points the way, so to speak. youtu.be/Tc8oneLuL0I

I did a basic introduction to stress and tone for a class a few years back and just posted the video: youtu.be/RDl8texptro #conlang #language #linguistics

Way back during the height of the pandemic I did a class presentation on how language can be used in Dungeons and Dragons (or any TTRPG). I recorded it, but, for whatever reason, never released it. Here it is: youtu.be/k5g2Tr5jVAI #conlang #language #dnd #d&d #ttrpg

If you haven’t seen this court in San Antonio, please—PLEASE—take a look. You don’t need to be a sports fan. Just look and appreciate how far we’ve come from the “pink is a girl color!” days.

I put up a new work stream. I recorded myself creating part of the #Chakobsa writing system for #Dune, but didn’t record any audio. Jessie and I watched it today and recorded commentary. #conlang #aoli www.youtube.com/watch?v=--nP...

Oh, Orlando… #NBA

I’m guaranteeing a @sunsphx.bsky.social victory because I must. #Suns
