I think that it's a shame this group isn't being used as much as it could be. After all, Prof. Barker himself reads it and comments on it on occasion – and...
Hi, I think that's a great idea. Remember too that words don't exist in a vacuum and that by learning one word, there are natural variations and associations...
Okay, let's get started! Today's word is ssyúkoi, sword. It is a noble noun. Used in a sentence: lúm mén máisur, tlassyú "I have a sword." Broken down,...
Please keep in mind that I'm relatively new to Tsolyáni (a kenggyélkoi, perhaps?) and I'm sure I'll make mistakes. If you catch any, please point them out....
Today's word is jayulénikh, armor. It is an ignoble noun. (As much of the audience probably uses Tsolyani for role-playing games, I'll cover a few words that...
Scott: Thanks for your word-a-day effort. I find information like this very interesting, and I'm happy you're doing it. Thank you very much, -- Rob Robbins ...
Thought this might be handy and/or fun for folks on this list; it's a chart of the International Phonetic Alphabet that will play an audio clip of each phoneme...
Today's word is a quick one, but it might come in handy. chegukh! It means "kindness," but idiomatically it means "please," "thank you," and "may I help you?" ...
... Hey, thanks, this is very cool. For others who check it out, you may need to have a Barker reference at hand though. The symbology is different from what...
... Good point; the webpage uses the International Phonetic Alphabet, without much extra explanation, assuming it's going to be used by elementary linguistics...
Hello all, I've just recently discovered this list, and am very happy to see it in operation. I haven't had a chance to peruse all the messages posted thus...
Today's word is máugha. Máugha is a cinnamon-like spice. It is relevant to us as the hated Enemies of Man, the Ssú, smell like this spice. Let's use this...
First of all Scott...thanks...this is fun, yet simple enough not to fry my sad little brain. one question...where is the accent on dlütüne ? off topic... ...
... I've got it as dlütüné. My GUESS would be dlü-tü-NÉ. Propounced (sort of) dlue-tue-NAY. Anyone with a better grasp of Tsolyáni care to take a stab...
And please, keep in mind that I am NOT the expert here. I'm just an interested student who loves the subject. (I keep expecting Prof. Barker to come in and...
... I remember reading somewhere that a beginner is an expert with no experience yet. Or something artsy-fartsy like that. ;) By all means, please continue...
Hi all, I'm working on the art for Mitlanyal (although it always feels like I'm working on it....) and thought I'd hit the group up for some inscriptions....
Greetings all, I have just received my Tsolyani language products and am eager to get into the fray. I found the CD to be very useful. Now if only I could...
Greetings all, In the Primer, the Tsolyani for both the numbers "nine" and "eleven" are spelled the same, with the exception of emphasis. Is this a typo in...
Greetings listfolk, I thought I had posted this question to the list, and it turns out I had posted it to the Professor privately. He asked that I repost his...
You did post it to the list, but the Tsolyani list is very quiet. Most of the activity is on the Tekumel list right now. There are more of us here, but we ...
... That's odd, I don't recall getting the message in my email. Oh well, no biggie. Yes, the list has been quiet lately. I'm currently working my way through...
... I'm not even slightly capable of reading Tsolyani script (except for some of the numbers), but I can recognize a small number of words and endings in ...
... Cool, that must be interesting! :) I've achieved perhaps 80% fluency with the script, but I'm only on lesson 7 in the primer. Just figuring out how to use...
