I’ve just (re)published the dictionaries for <https://langdev.ladys.computer/urn:fdc:langdev.xyz:20160819:jsv:eho/>="Eho", <https://langdev.ladys.computer/urn:fdc:langdev.xyz:20160819:jsv:lrx/>="Elrex", and <https://langdev.ladys.computer/urn:fdc:langdev.xyz:20160819:jsv:jtl/>="Jastulae", three “fictional” languages I developed in high school. The number of words in these languages is relatively tiny, so I always use them to test my processes before moving on to bigger things.

They are marked C·C·0, of course.

There are larger languages in the pipeline which still need some work. Jästūgā, despite being a fork of Jastulae, needs serious remediation thanks to a constantly shifting orthography. Proto–Jastu‐Sevensi, which combines all of these, has some confusing information and really should be double-checked against its sources. Fizonal hasn’t been touched since 2017 and its data—if it is even complete—is in an extremely old X·M·L format.

My ultimate goal in archiving and uploading these languages is to kickstart development again on Sevensi using these languages as the base. Constructing artificial languages has been a hobby of mine since at least 2009, but it’s been a long time since I seriously put work into it, thanks to running up against some technical barriers and the limits of what I could feasibly manage with my existing workflows.

I will post more about these technologies as they develop. Again, Langdev work is as a rule C·C·0 so feel free to rip off both the languages and the tools. These early dictionaries are all T·E·I documents with embedded X·S·L·T, but I’ll break with that model once I reach things in active development.
