Day 12 of #Lasat #Lexember, and @conlangery.com 's prompt was "A word for flight-related anatomy". I was convinced I had a word for "wing" already, but my dictionary says otherwise.

#Lexember Day 12: word for flight-related anatomy
ŋ̰ɘg, a whisker or feather
G'sunan speakers group any hard, sturdy hair-like things together: whiskers, wings, even prominent eyelashes would be called ŋ̰ɘg.

Today, my prompt is “A word for flight related anatomy”. The easy way is to coin a word for “wing”, but you could also do parts of wings or, as I did, a support structure. #lexember

Day 11 of #Lasat #Lexember! The prompt from @conlangery.com was "a specific type of tooth". I saw the opportunity for three good ones. That consonant cluster in kusvrahdz is a mouthful - pun intended.

For Lexember 11, my prompt is “A type of tooth”, aiming for something specialized like a molar, a fang, or a tusk. #lexember

Today's #Lexember prompt from @conlangery.com was "an animal weapon". I ended up with three for #Lasat! Suprisingly, the hardest was elchet, "venom".

Another day, another Lexember prompt. My prompt for today is “an animal weapon”, essentially an animal body part whose function is to fight other animals, like a horn or antler. #lexember

#Lexember 9 has the odd prompt "the body part of an insect" (blame @conlangery.com, not me!). Using Aq Sharush, the heavily inflecting language of a northern steppe empire, I formed the word "awudekh" - meaning "exoskeleton" (lit. guard-bone). With a relevant sample sentence to give a feel for it:

Today's #lexember prompt was "A way of making food". Given the examples, I assumed this was the cooking part, though I suppose you could do with whatever final preparation is done for a food that isn't cooked. Thanks to @quothalinguist.bsky.social for the prompt youtube.com/shorts/qex56...

Sylvan has a proper internal name. Henceforth it is Khyisfafȕ [xʲis.faˈfyː˨]. This is a compromise form from Dawn’s Khyisefafȕ and Dusk Khithfafű, both contracted forms of a phrase meaning “The Fey’s Tongue” altered to have a class IV (parasite) suffix. #conlang #language #linguistics #dnd #ttrpg
