Sapphirean Language

[Faliara]

THIS IS A MADE-UP LANGUAGE.

Basically, I was looking around FanFiction, then someone called fantasybookworm2012 (otherwise known as Talia) visited my forum. She also said about her forum, and I visited it. It's called 'Sapphieran Chat' where she teaches other people about her language, Sapphirean! I stayed there for a while and made a topic where I take notes of every little thing I learn. Then I got Talia's permission to spread it to here. So, here I am!

Sadly, you need a FanFiction account to attend it.

I'll also copy and paste my notes if you don't want to bother making an account.

Does it follow English grammar?

 

[Pikmon2]

Odd to say the least.

 

[Faliara]

Does it follow English grammar?

Not exactly, but yeah, sort of.

For example, I say 'I like stuffed animals!' that in Sapphirean would be 'Ji vira sop Animallia!'

Ji- I
Vira- like/love
Sop- stuffed
Animallia- Animal

You don't need to add any 's or stuff like that, but you do need to add coma and quotation marks.

Also, one could also say 'Gaunna za' which is 'Good morning' in Sapphirean. Gaunna is good and za is day/morning.

Some words have the same meaning...

I used to have my own language, and 'I like stuffed animals!' is translated into:

Carta incentium carte nimallium den likto tet uno!

Sorry, I don't have time to explain all that. It's meant to be complicated.

The whole point of a language is to make communication simple, this seems more like a silly word substitution with English than anything. If you're going to learn a novelty constructed language, try Klingon!

Okrand was presented with a difficult task of contriving a language that sounded alien, while still simple enough for the actors to pronounce.[5] While most constructed languages or conlangs follow basic tenets of natural languages — for example, all languages have an "ah" sound — Okrand deliberately broke them. He chose the rarest form of sentence construction, the object-verb-subject form: the translation of the phrase "I boarded theEnterprise", would be constructed as "The Enterprise boarded I."[36] Okrand reasoned the language would be indicative of the culture, the Klingon's language focuses on actions and verbs, like Mongolian. Adjectives do not strictly exist; there is no word for "greedy", but there is a verb, qur, which means "to be greedy".[37] The language does not contain the verb "to be", which meant Okrand had to create a workaround when director Nicholas Meyer wanted his Klingons to quote Shakespeare and the famous line "to be, or not to be" in The Undiscovered Country.[5] Initially, Okrand came up with "to live or not live", but Plummer did not like the sound of the line. Okrand went back and revised the phrase to "taH pagh, taHbe' ", roughly meaning "whether to continue, or not to continue [existence]".[5] The Klingon language has a small vocabulary compared to natural languages, containing around 2,000 words.[20]

Well, it's fun learning new languages, and that's why I took Ms Talia's class up. It's very fun learning, you know?

Ms Talia translated my signature for me;

'Sat' is bunny, 'Ba' is copy, 'Earthling' is world, and cantall is domination.​

I'm way too obsessed with my sig.​
