Elmendayisselin, ta pan yomeniëlma diëndëo.
(As is necessary for such an incomplete conlang, I had to invent a couple of neologisms. Elmendayissë from "Elmenda" (Wonder), meaning "curious (person)." Diëndë means "Dungeons and Dragons" from the acronym "DnD.")

Re: Á Quetë Quenyanen!
Let's go back to English, I'm awkward with Quenya anyway, though ironically I'm better with it than I am with any non-english natlang.

Re: Á Quetë Quenyanen!
Well I had no idea what you were saying.
It just sounds like something Inyauk would brand as blatantly foreign.

I wonder, maybe "Dungeons and Dragons?" (Literal translation rather than a rebus).Micamo wrote:Elmendayan, cenasta "hrótar arë lóci?"

Well I thought I wouldn't be the only elvish fan ;-; (Agyonnar's phonology is a pretty big ripoff of Eldarin in general)

Re: Á Quetë Quenyanen!
Do you take any foreign language classes?
Re: Á Quetë Quenyanen!
Nope. Self taught in basically everything.

Re: Á Quetë Quenyanen!
Yeah. You'll never learn if you don't have any practice. That's why I forgot all of my German. (Ich spreche kein Deutsch.)
I've been translating a lot lately, so I guess it stuck.

It's not just languages, I'm incredibly slow to learn basically everything.

I think I just got lucky in that I'm good with learning languages. (I also like to think I'm quite clever, but I'm hardly a good judge of that.) But I suck ass at naming terms or the abstraction of language.

If there's anything I'm less bad at, it's abstraction to the point of absolute insanity. Care for some Category Theory?
