You’d only need a sufficient grammar to decipher the text. You don’t need to go into a huge discussion of how your language encodes the eye color of the addressee if it doesn’t come up at all.

All right, then I'll have to cook up a relay text.

OK, how does a week sound?

These sorts of relays typically run three or four days per round by default, though extending this timeline is usually granted if requested (and, of course, it's perfectly fine to finish sooner).

OK, so how about a tentative schedule for the relay? Maybe first-come-first-serve, with bradrn moved to the end: Man in Space Rounin Ryuuji quinterbeck Moose-tache Emily Darren Zju Vilike bradrn I like the April 1st start date. Are you up for that, Man in Space? EDIT: OK, maybe bradrn doesn't go la...

I have successfully navigated customs forms! I think.

Classical Ĝare n Tim Ar (formerly known as Classical Ngade n Tim Ar). I believe I've already given you the numbers for this language; if I haven't, let me know and I'll send them along again.

I have once again redone how CT cuneiform works. https://i.imgur.com/pvU7P52.png ĝa-ri-e GEN ti-mi PL /ŋàɹè n̩ tìm àɹ/ [ŋàɹè n̩‿dɹìm àɹ] ĝare n Tim Ar 'Ĝare n Tim Ar ( i.e. CT)' So we have the following phonograms: ma, mi, mu na, ni, nu ĝa, ĝi, ĝu ra/ta, ri/ti, ru/tu la/ła, li/łi, lu/łu ga/ka, ge/ke...

Had the day off work so I redid CT cuneiform again.

What kind of music do you make? What is the name of your band?

Death metal; Amniote.

A few questions about Classical Ĝare n Tim Ar. First, the phonology, in its current state, is as follows: /m n ŋ/ m n ĝ /θ s x h/ d s ḫ h /ɬ/ ł /ɹ ʕ/ r g /l/ l /à è ø̀ ì ỳ ɤ̀ ò ɯ̀ ù/ a e ö i ü ë o ï u /á é ǿ í ý ɤ́ ó ɯ́ ú/ á é ô í û ê ó î ú /m̩ n̩ ŋ̩ l̩ ɹ̩/ m n ĝ l r (C)V(C), unless V is one of the ...

Not even a full grammar is needed—only enough of a grammar to figure out that specific text would be required.

what does a translation relay entail? I start with translating some text into a conlang. I give the conlang text, plus a brief grammar and lexicon, to the next participant (this is called a “torch”). Participant 2 translates the text from my conlang into theirs, messaging their torch to the next pa...

I just finished tracking the drums (for the fifth and hopefully final time) for our album.

I had an infusion of Remicade today and it appears I am allergic to a particular brand of face mask. We got it sorted out though and it wasn’t serious.

Bumping this to see if we can gain any more interest. How does April sound for a start date?
