Just noticed this was up! Maybe I’ll have something more substantive to say later, but for now: is ⟨m⟩ really /n/, or is that a typo?

EDIT: while I’m at it, on the visiting Eretald page: Wolancyzk → Wolanczyk.

Those are both typos— thanks, should be fixed.

[Reál]

I noticed a typo as well. In the example sentence where the boy is given the date-figs, Vokyon should be Gêkyon.

Thanks! I'm impressed when people find typos in the samples, it means they read them.

'The Dual is formed by repeating the last syllable. If the noun ends in a consonant, repeat the syllable instead.'

Should this be 'the first syllable instead'?

[Leilis]

Coming back (now that I've read the whole thing) to add that I really enjoy this kind of 'in-world' grammar. Now I want to write one myself but I think I'd need a second well-developed conlang.

Fixed.

No, but I see that my examples were unclear as they were one-syllable words. I've added a two-syllable word to clarify.

Thanks to both of you!

under "nominal sentences", i believe that it is also possible, and common, for sentences to have no noun at all should say have no verb at all instead, based on the example sentences

I got a kick out of the 1700s-style English (with the associated capitalization) used to translate the grammar. I don't think I've seen it anywhere else in Almea-related material.

Correct, and corrected, thank you!

Mildly unrelated, but I'm rather pleased that the variation with one-side-knights/one-side-archers made it in! Also that the "water" tiles from the earlier version made it in, albeit in altered form and only in archaic versions. (Honestly I'm pleased as punch any of it made it in at all!)

Pedant, you know I made a set with linocut (so in theory I can make more) and playtested it? Pics here.

It’s a fun game! I sent the results of the playtests to zomp, if you like I will forward them on?

Ohmygosh yes, this is amazing--

Haha, glad you like, here are the playtesting comments.

I want to make another (bigger) set of linocuts so I can reproduce the sets more easily. This one was very fiddly both to make and to play. It may take a while but I’d happily make you one, if you like.
