The main five profane words in my language all are relate to genitals, diu (same character means penis in Mandarin) means fuck, gau means erect dick, lan means dick in general, tsat means flacid dick, and hai means female genitals. In my country history, religion isn't that much important in our society so profanity is all relate to dirty, inappropriate or vulgar things. Aside from general profane particles, one phrase of offence to be directed at someone that is commonly used is puk gaai which the characters is composed of is "fall towards" and "street", so literally means drop to the street, basically "go to hell". You could also use the less common but infinitely more offensive diu neih lou mou or even diu neih lou mou cau hai, which use or iconic profane particles, but I personally wouldn't go around saying those. We do take family very seriously, so defaming one's ancestors is a serious phrase of offence. It's also why egg is an insult cause it implies you have no family like you hatched out of an egg like a lizard. Oh and as for why we don't have swear words based on ethnic slurs is that we don't see anything wrong with derogatory ethnonyms... we literally called our neighbors barbarian in four different ways, we called the Japanese "倭" which has a whole bunch of condescending meanings, and of course the general rule that everyone in Asia except for Mongolia is racist.

Idea: Terrestrial. We make a language combined from the communicatory sounds of all terrestrial creatures on Earth.

Humans initially were not one species. Long ago there were many "advanced" homonids in the Homo genus, but they mixed with one another so much that they all coalesced into a single species, creating modern humans. Orangutans, which are also great apes like us, can produce the sounds of human speech, btw. Perhaps all the different ancient hominids had their own language, like Neanderthal, Cro Magnon, Denisovans, Homo sapiens, ect all had different languages but when we all became a single species the languages mixed and hence different languages. It would make sense as often substrates will make a language different from related languages.

It's kinda funny how in some things between some languages, there just isn't really a same word and the translation isn't like some solid thing it's more like a rough equation... even though they work a bit differently. Since the ascension of Qin, our emperor has used the characters 皇帝 as their title. These two characters are both from the first period in our history, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period, where the character 皇 was used to refer to the sovereigns which were more like gods, and 帝 to the emperors who were sort of like borderline demigods, like prophets or something. During the Xia Dynasty, the first dynastic regime, 帝 was used as was created by the five emperors. Later during Shang and Zhou, 王 (king) would be used. Afterwards, emperor (皇帝) came to be the ruler of China, the center of the world, while its satellites' rulers were king (王). Minor states in periods of fragmentation also used 王/king, so as to not, well, paint as big a target on themselves. Japanese use characters 天皇 which is different from what ours use. Although other places in the Sinosphere did have emperors, they were kind of like "emperor at home, king abroad". Korea just chose to be king at home too because they were just that loyal and humble ig, major W for them. We mostly ignored Japanese emperor, and shogun was like King of Japan.

Thanks for the analysis! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). How can I transfer them to Binance?

Cheer~~~any of the perceptually distinct units of sound in a specified language that distinguish one word from another😊

the creation of logban/lojban is so funny "We think that language effects how people think, so we made a language based around predicate logic to see if it will effect how people think. Please ignore that everything that went into the creation of this language, ie all of our thoughts, is, according to this theory, contingent on our birth language and how it effected our conception of predicate logic and language itself." A language like what lojban aims to be would be impossible according to it's own guiding theory. If all of our knowledge is contingent on how our language shapes our perception of the world, then that includes the knowledge required to make a new language, and thus the new language couldn't be any better at representing reality in an any more "objective" way than the language it was crafted within

When was the last time that you heard an informed / educated black professional use AAVE on TV news ? You don't, because it is not correct or acceptable by the general population. Remember that AAVE is just Ebonics, and Ebonics started from uneducated blacks 5+ generations ago. GOOGLE it !

Hello Xidnaf, I am going to make a small competition of well-known conlangs to see who wins, could you vote? This are the first round duels: 1. Volapük vs Toki Pona 2. Dothraki vs Poliespo 3. Esperanto vs Quenja 4. Ithkuil vs Na’vi 5. Brythenig vs Láadan 6. Ido vs Klingon 7. Interlingua vs Lojban 8. Kelen vs Kay(f)bop(t) You just put the number and the conlang you prefer of each battle, thank you a lot!

And today you still have westerners claiming they invented Sanskrit and some claiming that some European dude had a language before Sanskrit and flew to India and gave us civilisation watch alternative media and it’s ripe with supremacy ideology masked as conspiracy

great video

You forgot Knaanic, the language of the West Slavic Jews

Interesting how the otomotpias are left out, was that for a particular reason?
