Talk Between Two Turf war tryhards....thee yangapwâo chronicles

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Translating whole sentences and trying to capture their feel is an amazing way to add flavor to any conlang! Plus, in this case it gives YW some much needed idioms and expressions. I didn't think to make it tooooo naturalistic, since it's not spoken by humans, but I want the language to portray that alien feeling through expressions AND grammar! I'll update this as time goes on :) have a good day!

Tsânga : ssòchâofrozyeye, kneppasu nyitizijiyoi ngwe... I’m pretty nervous, my team doesn’t have the best synergy…

another random sentence...clong....jajaja

kwonngiska wàypyâuey sñûnzu

clowns in a marketplace don't blend in

kwo[n]ngis-ka (w)àypyâ -u[e]y sñû[n]zu [in]bazaar -topic (ᴘʟ)clown-[ɴᴇɢ]hidden [in]colored.ink

my sister gave me this sentence, absolutely goated for that business. Anyways, the word kwongis denotes an open-air market. This is the impression I get from the word "marketplace", but it could've also referred to a trading organization (ikinshron) or just a supermarket (nmako).

The phrase meaning "blend in" literally translates to "being hidden in ink." sñuzu refers mostly to the ink used during Turf Wars, whereas wâu is ink in general, with a tinge of animalistic connotation (like the difference between hair and fur). This is the word for ink in yangapwâo!!! "ink language"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

as a side note, i'll just say that conlanging is an absoute joy to do and i really enjoy this one in particular. yangapwâo is so different from any clong i've made before and i adore it. WITH THAT SAID! school is taking up a lot more time than i thought it would, so I'll have to focus on the weekends to clong as much as possible!!! translating random sentences that i find around the world (or ask randoes for) makes my day. thanks for reading!

zabis eraryàtini! (art for your hearts!) <3

Thank you so much for reading! I'll definitely try and gloss this when I get a chance, school is ALREADY heavy even though it just started, but I won't give up conlanging for anything!

Shorter post for today's YW!!!

mimisikki sju (o) bwây nau sn’yî imosikko unu school is kicking my ass even though it hasn't yet started

mi -m[i]sikki s -ju (o) bwây ɪɴᴛs-[ᴍᴏᴠ]school 1sg-ass ᴀᴅᴠ unpleasant

nau s -n’y[î] i -mosikko un[u] despite 1sg-[ᴍᴏᴠ]body to-school [not]_yet

The adverbial o is completely optional in this case, with the meaning barely changing. Its inclusion suggests that school is unpleasantly kicking one's ass, while its absence suggests that the speaker feels unpleasant about school's aforementioned ass-kicking.

Have a nice day!

Vampire Squid (Vampyroteuthis infernalis), family Vampyroteuthidae, photographed in the deep sea off the Pacific Coast of North America

Vampire Squids are not actually true squids, but are in their own distinct groups of Cephalopods (most closely related to the Octopuses).

These octopods live at depths of 600 to 900 m (2,000 to 3,000 ft) in oceans around the world.
