A belated Happy Halloween to you all!  Did anyone make any candy words for the occasion?  I created a few taste adjectives like sweet, sugar, salt, and things like that.

I'd like to post our current stats:
#Conlangers was created on April 13th, 2010.

Currently it has:
:bulletpurple: 122 members
:bulletyellow: 13141 page views
:bulletpurple: 151 watchers


:iconwoahplz:

Now that's what I call GRAMMARINTENSE!



NACOWRIMO
As some of you may know November is National Novel Writing Month, we here at #Conlangers edit that a little to make it National Conlang Writing Month!  The aim of NaNoWriMo is to write 50 000 words.  Clearly that is a bit much for a conlanger at this point. Hahah.  So here are the requirements for NaCoWriMo!
:bulletpurple: 200 words in your conlang (not the orginal language)
:bulletyellow: A passage written by you!
:bulletpurple: Finished by November 31st!
:bulletyellow: Post here for all to see!

You could also write it in your script if you're feeling ambitious but that is not necessary. c:



A belated welcome to all of the new members too!  My name is Jai and I am one of the co-founders!  I'm happy to see that this group is growing so much, but at the same time the growing number of people makes it harder to get to know each other.  I have a few ideas for this. We could make a journal with little profiles of everyone!  I have a few other ideas too, but if anyone has any other ideas feel free to post them here!




Also!  If you haven't been added to the google docs yet please note the group your email and we'll add you A.S.A.P.  And as always if you have any questions feel free to ask on the #Conlangers main page! That is where you will get the quickest response!

~Jai

And done, and submitted to the NaCoWriMo gallery just in case.

I wish I could do a story but I don't know if I'll have time. I've got 18 days, several of which will be without a computer and all my language files, and the best I might be able to do maybe is just transliterate something I've already written rather than come up with something new like last time. If that's acceptable I'll give it a shot I guess. How many new people are there anyway?

Something you've already written is fine! Wellll considering the last time I checked there were fewer than 100 members and now there are 120+ that means at least 20 new members! :gasp:

That's awesome! :) I hope even more people decide to join by the next census, haha. And I'll try transliterating then! ^_^

Bahaha, the word census made me giggle but that's just about right! Can't wait! :)

Conlangery needs to know about this. Email is away.

I might use this as an excuse to start up my learner's grammar of Hra'anh. I'm going to model it after my Attic Greek textbook, which uses stories to teach the language, interspersed with grammar, history, and vocab lists.

Conlangery needs to know about which part? Haha, NaCoWriMo was not our idea so I expect they've probably heard of it, but they might have slightly different rules. Unsure...

Oh that's a great idea! Hope you're planning on sharing it when you're done! :eager:

Yeah, about NaCoWriMo. As of last year, apparently they didn't know about it. They were brainstorming ideas about, "What could a November conlanging thing be? Create a conlang in 30 days?"
