Show Notes

In this episode, we wrap up our discussion of some best practices and other advice for Romanizing a conlang. While chatting, we used a Pages document to take some random notes, and a PDF of that document is attached here. (When I say random, though, I mean it. The notes won’t make sense without listening to the episode.)

In this episode, we chat with Jonathan about the practice of conlanging in general, including how taking different approaches can be helpful! They talk about their experiences working with different processes (evolving a language, creating a language as is, creating languages that stretch the boundaries of how we might currently think about languages…). It was a great conversation with Jonathan, and we hope you all enjoy it!
