so I've been working on my latest conlang, irkan osla (or just osla for short), for a bit now and would like to showcase its writing system in this post! osla has a syllabic alphabet, not too dissimilar to korean hangul, where letters are stacked according to certain rules to make syllable blocks.
osla's syllable structure is (C)(C)V(V)(C), here's how the stacks work for each type of syllable:
Tumblr media
all letters have small, wide, and tall forms depending on their position in the syllable. here are all the letters with their IPA value and romanization:
Tumblr media
and here's an example text! i translated parts of the minecraft end poem into osla. maybe i'll make another post just focusing on the grammar when it's more developed. the poem says in english:
What did this player dream? This player dreamed of sunlight and trees. Of fire and water. It dreamed it created. And it dreamed it destroyed. It dreamed it hunted, and was hunted. It dreamed of shelter.
Tumblr media
Does it know that we love it? That the universe is kind? Sometimes, through the noise of its thoughts, it hears the universe, yes.
Tumblr media
this post is getting long, so under the cut you'll find a "sans-serif" version as well as the poem in osla and its gloss if you're also a linguistics nerd and wanna know what's going on under the hood (the roman numerals stand for the 3 noun classes)! thanks for reading!
The way regular people would write something quickly on a piece of paper with a regular pen is an aspect of creating neographies that I feel is often overlooked, so I developed this sans-serif version that people would probably be more likely to use when writing their shopping lists or diary entries:
Tumblr media
And, finally, here's the poem translation:
pak oṇḍul phan wimbakis?
DET.I.SG.PROX play-AGN what dream-PST.3SG.I?
pak oṇḍul lümaṇiuṣerothi han buloni an wimbakis. kaṣkhaothi han nilothi an. wimbakis, run sëmamkis. wimbakis, run xokthakis, han bumxokthakis. zöga an wimbakis.
DET.I.SG.PROX play-AGN sunlight-II.SG.DAT and tree-II.PL.DAT of dream-PST.3SG.I. Fire-II.SG.DAT and water-II.SG.DAT of. dream-PST.3SG.I, that create-PST.3SG.I. dream-PST.3SG.I, that hunt-PST.3SG.I, and PASS-hunt-PST.3SG.I. shelter of dream-PST.3SG.I.

TW// Suicidal thoughts, mental exhaustion, lack of self worth
Doubt anyone's gonna see this but fuck it i might as well drop this in here
I'm so tired
I'm 15 years old male in 10th grade and i'm just so tired of everything. Tired of doing so much and putting in all the effort i can only to be criticized at the slightest mistake, tired of always trying so hard to be nice to others yet only being noticed when i'm rude or doing something bad or embarrassing, tired of this garbage world filled with wars, pollution, genocide, hunger, poverty, discrimination, disease, etc.
I feel like i'm losing more and more motivation with each and every single day that passes, beit for doing things i like, things i don't like, things i have to do, etc. I'm not particularly angry or sad or scared or frustrated, i guess i'm a little melancholic but overall i'm just exhausted, numb, and, most of all, bitter.
I still feel some amount of joy, but it feels so vain and empty. I eat something delicious, i listen to some music, i watch something funny on YouTube, on TV, etc., then i go right back to my misery. I just want someone to hear me calling for help. I just want to feel like someone actually gives a flying fuck about what i have to say, or wants me to feel better, or even just cares about my existence at all.
I don't even know anymore man. I'm just running out of options. I'm probably just experiencing burnout, which coupled with the fact i live in what is essentially a small village in the middle of nowhere, really just makes me feel hopeless.
Fuck this shit, man.

my gamedev project is giving me mad anxiety to the point of nausea and sleeplessness ;;A;;
you may or may not know but i am in the process of making a game with a team in chile. there's a big language and timezone barrier with only 2 people on the team comfortable speaking in english.
the issue is that i am supposed to be the art director on the project and while i did make a lot of important art decisions at the start, now i have almost 0 control over the art. the artist in the team almost exclusively makes the art and does whatever she feels is right and i am only informed about what's going on later.
i understand that since she doesnt speak english, it's hard for her to discuss things with me, plus timezone diff is a bitch.
there's a difference in power between me and my mentor (who's the head of this team)because obv while this is my game and vision (that i've been developing for 3 years alone), it's HER team thats helping me realise it (for free)
i feel so uncomfortable because i am indebted to her for this opportunity but also like, i dont like the direction where it's headed (aesthetically)
this thing has been sapping my mental energy for weeks now and i feel so detached from this project at times (even thought it's my baby). i know i should speak to my mentor but i am so afraid of sounding ungrateful, jealous or entitled, esp because the artist is close friends with her.
i did ask my mentor if we could have a talk sometime this week (without going into details) and she said we'll see, so if she doesnt set up a meeting my tomorrow, i will have to tell her everything over chat which i dont wanna do (since it may be misinterpreted)
anyway, i am writing all this just to get it off my chest. at times i feel i should just let the project finish without interfering and then make something else thats closer to my heart but i also feel like it's wrong if i dont fight for my vision. idk
i feel constantly on the verge of tears because of this because i know they're not doing this maliciously which makes it harder for me to speak up and i am just terrified of sounding unprofessional or bratty

I need WebMD but for autistic spectrum feelings, and not the "you feel like shit" website (though it's good) I'm talking about "why did I eat three full sized meals in 8 hours, have a mildly elevated heart rate while also feeling sleepy, and have spent all day wanting to run laps around the neighborhood?"

Feeling a little sick to the stomach atm.
I gained the courage to say that I don't need to be part of a thing after a whole year of technically not needing that thing. And during the part where I say I don't need the thing anymore I say that I felt bad cause i felt like I was taking advantage of said thing.
In response to that sentence, the person helping to run the thing said "yeah, true."
And now I feel horrible.
