    No I never heard of CONLANG? :confused:. Meanwhile, Sryanonese is still being made! :cool:. See how many things you have to learn Grammar-wise in Sryanonese before going onto much trickier words like "Oscillation", "Tenebrous" or "Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia".

    These rules only apply to REGULAR VERBS.

    Make sure to cross off the ending 'íon' if the verb has it.

    Verbs starting with a vowel but don't end in 'íon' (Example: Airríne - To arrive)

    Uai - 'til'
    Phai - 'tim'
    Rei - 'til'
    Trei - 'til'
    Lei - 'atomi'
    Luie - 'atomu'
    Reie - 'atol'
    Treie - 'atol'

    Verbs starting with a consonant but don't end in 'íon' (Example: Lín - To light)

    Uai - 'il'
    Phai - 'im'
    Rei - 'il'
    Trei - 'il'
    Lei - 'mi'
    Luie - 'mu'
    Reie - 'ol'
    Treie - 'ol'

    Verbs ending in 'íon' (Example: Púshíon - To push)

    Uai - 'tol'
    Phai - 'tom'
    Rei - 'tol'
    Trei - 'tol'
    Lei - 'tomi'
    Luie - 'tomu'
    Reie - 'tol'
    Treie - 'tol'

    More examples of regular verbs - Regglíe

    Stearíon - To start
    Cathias - To catch (like catching a ball or an object)
    Ceinoir - To catch (like catching an illness)
    Lín - To light
    Baení - To fight
    Fial - To fail
    Bioy - To bowl
    Airríne - To arrive
    Sende - To send
    Tíochíon - To think

    Unlike the words 'would' and 'could' which place a word after the verb to translate into Sryanonese, the word 'should' is when you add the ending 'íacain' to the end of the verb. For example:

    I should ask - Uai poutainíacain
    I should turn - Uai tiaíacain
    He should like - Rei míxíníacain
    I should be going - Uai destíacain shilín


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,666 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    My - Gla / Uail
    Mine - Glangel / Uailt
    Yours - Gute / Phainte
    Your - Gut / Phaint
    His - Paas / Reirine
    Hers - Treine / Treirine
    Her - Trein / Treirin
    Its - Vors / Reirine
    Our - Leisuss / Leiaint
    Ours - Leisusse / Leiainte
    Their - Reiedich / Treiedich / Reieirin / Treieirin
    Theirs - Reiediche / Treiediche / Reieirine / Treieirine

    *Note there are TWO translations for each. Therefore, you get to choose which one you want to learn. The first words are more trickier and the second ones after each / are much easier as they are closely related to the pronoun they are talking about. Example

    You - phai
    Your - phaint
    Yours - phainte

    You - phai
    Your - gut
    Yours - gute

    ^ Second group is harder to learn. So I'd go and learn the ones that are closely related to the pronoun if I were you.

    *Like the pronouns with the extra 'e' for they - an extra 'e' is added to "their(s)" to separate from his and hers.

    Conlanging is the creation of constructed languages or conlangs, such as El esperanto, lojban, or klingon. A conlanger is someone who creates or constructs languages or conlangs. Conlang.org is a site for conlangers, would-be conlangers, those interested in or curious about conlangs, and anything else to do with conlanging? :confused:

    There is no translation for the word 'every' in Sryanonese.

    When talking about the word 'every', however, to separate it from confusion, we use multiple different words which don't literally mean 'every' as there are plenty of different ways to say it in Sryanonese and therefore, just have to be learnt off by heart. For example, every Tuesday would be "ouil Muire" whilst every month would be "míonta díoin".

    Vocabulary:

    Everything - hiesses
    Every(a day of the week) - ouil ____
    Every month - míonta díoin
    Everyday - bes díoin
    Everybody - mogotrevís
    Every(an object like every horse) - ___ (object) hies

    Phai ceinoiru - You caught an illness
    Rei ceinoiru
    Trei ceinoiru
    Lei ceinoiruin

    Trei tian ceinoir
    Lei tion ceinoir
    Luie tiev ceinoir
    Reie tiane ceinoir
    Treie tiane ceinoir

    *Note: You needn't say the word "illness" (ethosien) in your sentence as it is already built into the verb "Ceinoir".
    *Note: Ceinoir is a regular verb.

    I caught the mumps - Uai ceinoiru ton míle
    We will catch cholera - Lei tion ceinoir bistup
    He caught the flu in the afternoon - Rei ceinoiru ton flio ton plakill faminamentes

    Confusion sorter. There are two translations for each of the following and it depends if the sentence is a statement / phrase or a question.

    Underlined = Question form
    Bold = Sentence form

    Are: 'Í' vs. 'Dien'
    Your: 'Ti' vs 'Gut' OR 'Phaint'

    'Ti' can be hard to figure out what it means in English by reading the start of the sentence and guessing what it is. So, once you read the full sentence, it should make sense to you which it translates as in English. It translates as either "Your" (Question form) or "Been".

    Example:

    Si-ire ti lariess tyanoín phai - How's life been treating you?

    Which makes more sense?

    Si-ire ti lariess tyanoín phai - How's life your treating you?
    Si-ire ti lariess tyanoín phai - How's life been treating you?

    Obviously, the "Been" one.

    Abnormal verbs are like irregular verbs in that they don't follow the rules of regular verbs. However, unlike the irregular verbs. They don't need to be overly complicated-conjugated.

    For example, the first abnormal verb you are gonna learn (since we were talkin' about Meats last night) is the verb To eat. In Sryanonese, it translates as "Pion" (Pee-own).

    Past tense of Pion is simply "Piont"

    So say, I ate > Uai piont
    You ate > Phai piont
    He ate > Rei piont

    And so on,

    The present tense of Pion is simply "Pioní" (Pee-own-eee)

    So say, I eat > Uai pioní
    You eat > Phai pioní
    He ate > Rei pioní

    And so on,

    The future tense of abnormal verbs are the same as regular AND irregular verbs! - No difference, thus

    I will eat > Uai tia pion

    Abnormal verbs participles - goes for all of them! No different!

    Past participle > "t"
    Present participle > "í"

    Fortunately, there are very few abnormal verbs and are thus extremely easy to learn! Fact: The verbs you use most in Sryanonese are either abnormal verbs or irregular verbs and you use regular verbs less frequently!

    Saying your birthday in Sryanonese is fairly easy as you translate the phrase nearly literally! So for example,

    My birthday is on the eleventh day of November (it actually is :pac:)

    Uail biebes dest ton norf s'hipon bes ia novimbrée
    (My) (birthday) (is) (the) (on) (eleven) (day) (of) (November)

    Speaking of manners :D.

    Thank you - Iodú phai
    Thank you very much - Iodú phai mi-li (always remember that "very" ("li") comes after the word you want to say in English that emphasises)
    Excuse me - Excuizaime (pronounced ex-gwiz-ah-meh), no need to put in "Uai" in this phrase (which is me or I)
    Please - Pliedír
    Mind your manners - Vallum gut / phaint mineire (your choice for the "your" part but preferably "gut" by the sound of it)
    You're welcome - Phai dien riem
    May I - Maine uai (no difference from the month, May which is also MAINE)
    Pardon me - Pardaime (again no need to put in the 'Uai')
    I'm sorry - Uai dest soir
    I am very sorry - Uai dest soir-li
    No problem / bother - Baes príebla / bríebla (might be confusing at times)

    As can be seen from the past few vocabulary, most of the time in Sryanonese, things can be taken literally as in translated the exact same way as they would in English. Notable differences, however that you've seen:

    *Very comes after the word you emphasise in Sryanonese
    *When doing prepositions such as "out of the", "in the", "on the" etc, "the" always comes first in Sryanonese. For example,
    In the = Ton plakill = literally translating as "The in"
    *When talking about the time such as "Half past" or "Quarter past" - "Past" comes first in Sryanonese. For example,
    Half past = Luím hial = literally translating as "Past half"
    *When translating the names of the tenses such as Past Tense or Present Tense - "Tense" always comes first in Sryanonese. For example,
    Past tense = Nontíot luím = literally translating as "Tense past"
    Present tense = Nontíot luíp = literally translating as "Tense present"
    Future tense = Nontíot luíc = literally translating as "Tense future"

    It is in the past tense = Rei dest ton plakill nontíot luím

    Aiduin is an irregular verb and in English, it translates as the verb "To have". Hint: For the past and present tense, nearly every pronoun's ending is the same as "Éloin" (To be).

    For example,

    Éloin - Uai dest
    Aiduin - Uai aidest

    Éloin - Rei deos
    Aiduin - Rei aideos

    *The only difference (apart from some of the pronouns' endings, lei and luie in the past tense in particular) is that "ai" is put in front of the ending.

    Nontíot Luím - Past Tense

    Uai aideos
    Phai aideos
    Rei aideos
    Trei aideos
    Lei aideosríl
    Luie aideosríoun
    Reie aideos
    Treie aideos

    Nontíot Luíp - Present Tense

    Uai aidest
    Phai aidien
    Rei aidest
    Trei aidest
    Lei aidiest
    Luie aidial
    Reie aidiet
    Treie aidiet

    Nontíot Luíc - Future Tense

    You have already learnt 7 of the 23 irregular verbs in Sryanonese! P.T. = Present tense

    Tias - To turn
    Éloin - To be
    Nimbí - To take (P.T. only)
    Siopp - To play (P.T. only)
    Míon - To like (P.T. only)
    Toogias - To do
    Aiduin - To have

    In the next two weeks, I am planning on giving the other tenses of the verbs I marked that I only gave the present tense for and another 4-6 irregular verbs which will bring you up to 11-13 irregular verbs out of the 23. Jesus, didn't realize I was that far ahead in giving these conjugations and lessons.

    Answering to a question such as "Si-ire í phai?" - How are you? is very easy in Sryanonese. You simply say "I feel _____" or "I am _____". BOOM, there's your sentence.

    Uai dest granpo - I am grand
    Uai dest feelín granpo - I am feeling okay (grand)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,666 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    Is Sryanonese getting any easier and straightforward or is it still complicated to y'all?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,229 ✭✭✭Nate--IRL--


    It all sails over my head, but I've found it interesting nonetheless. Always had an aversion for learning other languages since (because of) school. I never really paid attention to how language is constructed. Seeing one created from scratch kinda makes the construction easier to comprehend.

    Thank you very much - Iodú phai mi-li
    I am very sorry - Uai dest soir-li (I am sorry would be "Uai dest soir")
    A good start is half the battle - Dest stearíon goode líon ton hial liev
    A good start is half the work - Dest stearíon goode líon ton hial jobíon
    You're welcome - Phai dien riem
    Mind your manners - Vallum gut / phaint mineire (again you choose the "your" part, gut OR phaint)
    A language lives if it's spoken - Iesttol lean líon riaon rei dest feilchuim
    No problem / bother at all - Baes príebla / bríebla eu iad

    That's all the phrases I have come up with so far

    Vocabulary

    Jobíon - work / to work
    Soir - sorry
    Goode - good
    Riem - welcome
    Vallum - mind
    Iesttol - lives (present tense of iestíon - to live)

    *One thing to say before I go onto the topic is notice that lí = verb and li = very? When speaking, how can we separate each from nearly the same sound, well,

    Li is pronounced like - lEE (2 e's)
    Lí is pronounced like - lEEE (3 e's)

    ^ Always remember this and try not to get confused

    Notice also how lí is built into the following:

    Regge - Regular verbs
    Irrege - Irregular verbs
    Abnorme - Abnormal verbs

    Anyway, people may find it confusing when to use an inflected form of the verb or the infinitive in Sryanonese.

    *Well, when saying "It's" - You say Rei dest - which is literally "he is".

    *When saying words such as "gives" without a pronoun or object or name, you say the inflected form of the verb like it were a Rei or Trei (he or she).

    *When saying words such as "work" or "start", you use the infinitive form of the verb, you do not use it like in English when you say for example, "I work" (no s) or "We work". You use the INFINITIVE!!!

    Hopefully, this clears confusion?

    Towee - Noisy
    Oreou - Old
    Ligma - Powerful
    Vexto - Quiet
    Dinal - Slow

    In most of my example sentences from now on, I am gonna be using more adjectives to help learn them as fast as possible!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,666 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    The Superlative Adjective in English is when you say for example, best, greatest or most amazing etc.

    To say the NIEMBERT TON GULIOLOGRA in Sryanonese, you simply have to learn off vocabulary to do with the adjective - normally is a simpler version of the word.

    For example,

    Hard = Sealt
    Hardest = Sael

    Soft = Eupocl
    Softest = Eup

    I will give a list of Niembert Ton Guliolograe someday!

    Here is a sample conversation in Sryanonese:

    Uai: Sevit!
    Phai: Sevit!
    Uai: Si-ire í phai?
    Phai: Uai dest granpo!
    Uai: Si-even nu ti reen?
    Phai: Litz reen nu Ross.
    Uai: Si-rie í phai to?
    Phai: Uai iesttol plakill Eieren.
    Uai: Si-pol rie phai diontar?
    Phai: Si-neve phai poutan?
    Uai: Granpo, morat vallum.

    A strange conversation in my opinion :D. Here is the English translation

    Me: Hi!
    You: Hi!
    Me: How are you?
    You: I am grand.
    Me: What is your name?
    You: My name is Ross.
    Me: Where are you from?
    You: I live in Ireland.
    Me: When were you born?
    You: Why you ask?
    Me: Okay (grand), never mind.

    *Notice:

    How "Si-rie" = Where

    whilst

    "Rie" on its own = Were

    This only goes for questions because if you want to say like "You were", you say the past tense of Éloin - To be = Phai deos.

    Woman - virtek
    Boy - jóin

    Father - reieirint (again to not get confused with brother, there is an extra e in this)

    Rei - He
    Trei - She
    Reie - They (masculine)
    Treie - They (feminine)
    Reirine - His
    Treirine - Hers
    Reieimé (scoíal) - All boys (school)

    There are a few more to come but these are the ones I have right now. Remember how to form the tenses of each? Look back in this forum if you don't.

    Drín - To drink
    Fuaríon - To cool
    Cheartis - To make
    Allegíon - To get (clue: Allegro = loud and you could think of it also, to get louder)
    Brísón - To bring
    Sienon - To seem
    Deiron - To say
    Hoaditíon - To hold


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,758 ✭✭✭RedemptionZ


    You say you want people to speak the language, yet you go out of your way to make it hard? I think what you're doing is cool but having all these irregularities seems counter intuitive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,666 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    I did this for the LOL's but they give you some good vocabulary anyways :D:pac::P

    Nacht der Untoten (Night of the Dead) - Socizersing ton ia dierl
    Buried - Béarí (past tense of Béaríon)
    Der Riese (The Giant) - Ton gant
    Origins - Fiblouge
    Green Run - Glúim rúinín
    Town - Tiomier
    Farm - Fiomier
    Bus depot - Depismarth (a mix of dep (depot) and bismarth (bus)
    Diner - Duximi
    Mob of the dead - Mella ton ia dierl
    Nuketown zombies - Tiomier ník zoimbae
    Die rise - Dierlínt risíon
    Kino der Toten (Cinema of the Dead) - Cineimá ton ia dierl
    Alcatraz Island - Isla Altraz
    Five - S'nacy (like the number)
    Dead Ops Arcade - Dierl ionópese arcáid
    Shi No Numa (swamp of death) - Swí ia dierl
    Verrückt (crazy) - Cott
    Moon - Vilmodin
    Borough - Bíllmotin
    Turned - tura (past tense of "Tias")
    Call of the dead - Revertíon ton ia dierl
    Shadows of evil - Inquise ia eunrí

    *Note: Even if the words are made up, they are translated differently, some words are exceptions such as "map" as seen in the title (with the e = maps)
    *Note: Dierl is note the past tense for dierlínt - to die. When talking about "dead" without a pronoun, you use "dierl" instead of "dierlíntu" which'd you use with all other verbs - as in the pattern of endings. Dierlínt isn't an irregular verb however, it's regular! Dierl literally means "death" btw.
