Description

“In the kingdom of Narsus was Addorogg, the walker of the warred plains of battles, drabbed in the black fire has it devoured light within even the nights and bats. When even the destroyer of beauty that’s fire, can be burned by Addorogg’s abysmal spews, then so can existence be routed. The black burns plead to be understood for it devours understanding, and engulfs the beholders in delirium before their awestruck eyes. They never sense if they’re burning, or that their loved ones and possessions follow them to death with a kiss, eating the last kiss to non-existence, as if the kiss never happened. Addorogg: Widowmaker of Gods, burned by the stakes, it loned for life as it lived in its own shallow bubble. It never screams but spews the black fires as it calls for atonement, hoping the souls would at least find the darkness, that it was breeded from.”

I used to not be amused with dragons both literary and visually until I discovered that people through history have described dragons by comparing animal bodyparts together, that ignited my creative fire and now I can't stop myself wanting to draw dragons.

Lol yesss! Now where to go from there? Well I can make a conlang (constructed or made up language) to accompany the name, should I? If so it'll be the only language in my repertoire that uses double consonants.

Is it a dragon, dragonborn, or other race language? Is the name Addorogg either a loanword, a compound word, a whole word, archaic word? What exactly does it mean? Why if compounded is so? Etc.. Maybe you can give me a headstart.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. In short, yes it's god fucking awful hard, especially when the language one imagined and constructed is totally different. It's easy to express a conlang by babbling some made-up words that fits so well aesthetically, but when as an actual language it has a different aesthetic. One has to be smart with the patterns studied from existing languages that they want to implement into one's conlang, in order to really control what is created, just as with practice one can control what is expressed through art.

I still think art is really fucking hard, it's no wonder I don't post often. But sometimes it's best to lower the bar so that it isn't painful than enjoyable.

Yes since two years I've created, deleted, rewritten, learned, experimented, etc.. Before, my conlangs were relexes, then I made conlangs constructed from aesthetics solely, then conlangs constructed by logic. I was passionate about making a demon language. Before it sounded rather guttural elvish, but now I can create two versions either this fire breathy sounds by using mexican x, old norse þ, and polish ł just more fricatives, or the raucous, impious greek x, k, j, z, (more to come) with vowels leaning more towards the front than back.

It's hard to come up with the perfect language, but I think it's impossible to make the perfect writing system, especially drawing glyphs. For the demon language I wanted the glyphs to seem evil (obviously), but nope it was sterile, only until I attempted metal logo calligraphy that I'd my breakthrough. Creating glyphs I think is an artform in itself, but it's its 'font' that gives the mood, and texture, and the spelling its beauty. I still have a fuckton to learn.

Do you have any conlangs and 'con-scripts' if you care to share with me? It's ok if you don't want to.

Oh it's gotta be useful to know. Constructed language (or conlang for short) is a language that is deliberately constructed to serve communication in some form. There are subtypes such as: Natlang (natural language that is developed through time or not, perhaps Trigedasleng from The 100 may fit in this type as it's developed from some commonly spoken existing languages), artlang (art language such as our demon language, Dothraki, Na'vi), auxlang (auxilliary language such as Esperanto, Ygyde, Ithkuil, Toki Pona, Voläpyk)

Constructed script (or conscript for short) is a script that is also constructed with the same premise, although they're for the most at least accompanied with a writing system, if not they're asomatic. They can be developed naturally like ideograms, auxilliarily, or just artistically. Hangul which is an analytical writing system, has an easy-to-learn conscript since it's based on tongue articulation so it has relatable patterns. Mine in this case is trying to invoke a specific mood.

In regards to having more realms and stuff, I only realised when I got my hands on Dungeon Masters Guide for DnD 5e when I discovered 'Limbo', 'The Abyss', and some other hells. For my world, I chose to make my secondary devils' and fallen angels language develop from the angel language, and the actual demon languages be awfully branched and primitive by taking inspiration from the devil language so they've a radically different vocabulary, yet they've the devil language as their second language if they're even smart enough to master them. They may also have been influenced by the prime devil language which began independently and parallely from the heavenly languages from the time the world was created. Then there's the abyssal language which is hopeless.... Words are so consonantal and gagging not to mention vague that it's probably the hardest language to communicate with, but it's no problem for them in the abyss because they've telepathy. I even made the devil language influece an existing human language for a kingdom in form of eroded spelling traces.

But yeah I love when there's depth to language and its history. Still I think my world isn't varied enough.
