	Zompist.com - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zompist.com, also called The Metaverse, is a website created by Mark Rosenfelder, a conlanger.
		The website is also the home of the Language Construction Kit, Rosenfelder's article introducing new conlangers to the hobby.
		The board has various ranks, the names of which are based on Mark Rosenfelder's Verdurian language.

	How to create a language
		As Mark Rosenfelder says, the key to a naturalistic language is to add (or substract) dimensions.
		An ergative language, as we saw, is one that marks the subjects of transitive verbs with one case (ergative, ERG), and the subjects of intransitive verbs and objects of transitive ones with another case (absolutivo, ABS).
		Fluid-S), in which the decission to mark the subject as A or P depends on real-time semantic considerations and must be taken by the speaker according to his/her intention and the context, since the meaning of the expression can be changed.

		A personal web site I am always impressed with is Mark Rosenfelder's Metaverse which is located at http://www.zompist.com/.
		Rosenfelder is one of those people who puts stuff on his site that make me go, "Cool, I wish I'd thought of that."
		A linguist by training, Rosenfelder has an amusing look at foreign language phrasebooks for American tourists, They Thought You'd Say This.

	Lime Flavored.com - The Experience (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The fact that Mark Rosenfelder has everything he's ever written or created (web-wise) available and accessible on his website.
		That is something that I have wanted to do for some time but I keep "wiping the slate clean" and starting over from scratch.
		Mark Rosenfelder has the Metaverse and I will now have my own "verse."

	Language Log: The sci.lang FAQ
		Originally written by Michael Covington, and now maintained by Mark Rosenfelder, the sci.lang FAQ is well worth consulting.
		Because it emerged in the late Cretaceous, when giant newsgroups roamed the earth, some may regard it as a sort of living fossil, and may even be surprised to find that it is still very much alive.
		Wandering the corridors over the sci.lang FAQ, you might run across other little treasures, such as this page explaining how to estimate the probability of chance resemblances between words in unrelated languages (written by Mark Rosenfelder, the current maintainer of the sci.lang FAQ site).

	Languages of Almea (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.virginia.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The most well-known (or least obscure, if you prefer it that way) of these is Verdurian; this is also the language which is best described: it has the most complete grammar and the largest lexicon.
		Soa etëlevi Ihanei: The beginning of the Gospel according to John, as transcribed from an old manuscript Mark was kind enough to send me. NOTE: this document was written before the "big relexification", and a fair number of words used are no longer official and have been replaced by others.
		Later, Mark withdrew the offer (it's not on the current version of his web pages, as of 2002-04-06; it was there on 2001-07-17 when I printed out many of his pages), perhaps because the document wasn't in HTML or even in Microsoft Word format but only as a set of manuscript pages.

	The Universe of Discourse : Doubling productivity and diminishing returns (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The real point of my article is to mention this funny thing from the Rosenfelder article.
		It's funny because M. Rosenfelder is trying to make an argument from pure mathematics, and doesn't realize that if you do that, you have to get the mathematics right.
		Sure, once your workforce participation, or anything else, is at 51%, you cannot double it again; it is mathematically impossible.

	Babylon Five: Mark Two (JBR Wishlist)
		This essay is supplementary to my ancient "Star Trek: Mark Two" rant, where the topic-drift of my Babylon Five postscripts is getting ridiculous, so I'll make a fresh start here.
		But (if you'll pardon a digression inspired by Mark Rosenfelder's lament that Science Is Killing SF) that's not because the horizons of modern science have grown too restrictive, it's because there are too few real science fans and too many downdumbers in the Meejuh.
		Any setting involving aliens or the marked lack of them needs some answer for this paradox, preferably showing some understanding of the depth and scale of cosmic history, and how full of von Neumann probes, billion-year-old civilisations and Big Dumb Objects space could be!

	Talk:Mark Rosenfelder - Langmaker
		User pages should be from their perspective, where people pages should be NPOV, providing lists of their languages, regardless of whether or not they were the ones who submitted them.
		(In Mark's case, for instance, I think I submitted quite a few of the conlangs.) --Jeffrey Henning 23:24, 1 April 2006 (EST)
		I agree; a user page isn't encyclopedic, it's just a place for the user to say hello.

	Hitlist for Conlangers
		First, I must say that I am indebted to Mark Rosenfelder for his Language Construction Kit; it has been an absolutely wonderful starting point.
		This is where you determine what grammatical features are marked on words.
		I have the various classes of word listed below; inflections I have not listed because they can mark only the same things as verbs.

		The files are zipped; a version of unzip is usually available on whatever host you use to ftp with.
		The neuter plural in all IE languages is not descended from this, however-- active/stative languages typically don't mark plurals for inanimate nouns-- but is instead a collective noun, treated grammatically as a singular.
		This collective noun ended in *-a in the nominative and accusative, and eventually it developed into the feminine, which in all the old IE languages has the same form in the nominative singular as does the neuter plural nominative- accusative.

	LINGUIST List 5.806: Proposal for an ASCII version of IPA, v.2.13 revised
		This symbol, the "back tick", must be distinguished attentively from the single quotation mark '.
		But the question mark is such a powerful symbol that it could easily be misread to mean "uncertain" or "unknown" in the middle of transcription.
		There is a Shanghainese tradition going back to the beginning of this century in which final glottal stop is written with a letter q, and based on this perhaps Q can substitute for glottal stop.

		The simple and direct approach seemed the best one for so early in the game, but those with more surreal or explosive suggestions take heart -- your time WILL come.
		Carl decides to drink, so he throws away the car key and decides to walk instead.
