Eccentric Iconoclast Hawk_McKrakken I've made plenty of alphabets, but I have... NO idea what a syllabary is. confused Anyone have examples? It's where you write syllables as letters instead of phonemes. wink Japanese uses the kana syllabaries; instead of writing, for instance, the letters 'h' and 'i' for 'hi', they just write the letter for 'hi'. Sorry if my explanation doesn't make sense. gonk Yours makes sense. 3nodding But whenever I see someone ask that, I'm always thinking "WTBH! I knew what a syllabry was long before I knew what a foreign language was!" Of cousre I never say it outloud 'cause I don't want to sound rude.

Chill, kids... So Pistil didn't know... I didn't know what a case was till after I started learning Russian, and I didn't really get it until E.I. kinda-sorta explained it. Maybe we should put these things in the conlang references thread or a similar thread. None of us were born knowing these words!

A linguistic vocabulary thread? surprised I'll work on writing one of those.

Pistil doesn't know a LOT of things regarding languages. crying I only do after extensive study. sweatdrop I think I've said this elsewhere but: I know what a noun is! But I have no clue what verb, adjective, etc. are. sweatdrop It's not even that I've forgotten things taught in school - it's that I was never taught these things in the first place. I do have one memory of nouns and things at school - but I only remember it because I had no clue what I was doing and wondering why they weren't telling us what these words meant. Yet we were somehow supposed to 'underline the verb in this sentence'.
