Almost All of My Conlangs Are Technically More Like Codes; They Have A Key For Translation, So I Can Easily (And Automatically Existant-ly) Translate [Usually?] Any Word In English.
It Is Unknown What And When My First Conlang Was, But It Was Probably In The Same Class of Conlangs: Conlangs That Were Practically Simply Cryptograms With A Demonymic Name.

It Is Just A Word Along The Alphabet, And The Name of The "Conlang" (I Called Them "Languages" (As I Did Until I Found Out That I Was Actually A Conlanger)) Plus The Suffix "-ium" at The End (Which Is What A Suffix Is; Kindof Redundant).
Some I Remember Were Mercuryian, Earthian, Probably The Rest of The Planets, Hydrogenian, Heliumian/(Helian?), and The Corresponding "Conlangs" For All The Other Elements, Including Ununoctiumian/(Ununoctian?).
Back Then, They Were All Mostly Just Jumbled Gibberish; Too Many Consonants In The Wrong Places, Not Enough Vowels In The Right Places. I Think Maybe I Was Unsatisfied With This Kindof (But Maybe Not; This Was Way Back In The Earlier Half (or 75%?) of Elementary School). But I Do Know That I Liked Ununoctiumian/(Ununoctian?) (It's Not Even Called That Anymore; It Was Renamed "Oganesson" Several Years Ago). It Had More Vowels.

I Wrote It In a Phone Book (I Liked (And Continue To Like) Phone Books (I Like To Collect And Compare Them Between Years)); I Liked How It Was More Pronouncable-Looking.
Sometime Around Then-ish (Unknown?), I Also Made Backwordsian (Originally Typo, But I Kept The Spelling Because It's Kindof A Play-on-Words) and Alphabetian (Words With The Letters in Alphabetical Order). And Later, While Playing Minecraft on The Then New PS4 (I Think It Was "4"), I Made More Conlangs. One Of Them (I Can't Remember Its Name) Was One Where The Letters Were The Letter Versions of Their Place in The Alphabet (e.g. a=1=a i=9=i j=10=að) (This Later Was Brought Back as Ennelphibati, Then Renamed as Enfibo, Then Renamed Again to Nelpu).
Then I Really Started Making Worthwhile Conlangs, Namely Creeper Latin and Northern Smil(y)ian. I Wrote The Keys on Them on Napkins. Unfortunately, My Mom Had Thrown Them Away Or Something Not Knowing That They Were Keys (I Think Maybe She Didn't See The Writing? (Possibly (But More Likely She Just {{Wasn't Paying Attention}/{Didn't {{Notice}/{Realize}}}}))). One Was Fully Recovered, While The Other Mostly, But Not Enough ("G" Wasn't Recovered, Amongst Others).
Creeper Latin Was Based On The Same Simple Practically-Cryptogram Concept (It Would've Been Known As "Creeperian"), But With Some Letters Kept The Same as English (Namely The Letters in The Word "Creeper"). Some Other Letters Were Also Different From {"Creeperian"}. It Also Was The First To Have More Features: Double Vowels Became One Vowel (Possibly With A Circumflex (I Couldn't Remember)), And {It Differentiated Between Hard and Soft "C"}. Also, For Some Reason I Decided To Make {"M" and "N"} {"!" and "?" Respectively}.

Creeper Latin Was {Mostly Reconstructed} By Using "Artifacts" of Creeper Latin.
Northern Smilian is A Conscript Based On The PS4 On-Screen Keyboard. Each Letter Becomes The Letter That The "Cursor [?]" is On When Switched To The Special Characters Thingy Using The Button Shortcut Thingy. I Chose To Have Most of Them Be Left Un-Diacriticized; The Ones I Left To Stay Diacriticized Gave it an Icelandic Feel To It, So I Named It Northern Smilian. I Recovered Northern Smilian All But The Letter "Z" From A Note on One Of The iPods I Had (I Mostly Used It For The Notes And The Internet (I Could Make A Whole "Nother" [I Hadn't Realized Until Now That I Had Been Saying That Word While It Doesn't Even Exist] Article About The Long History of Electronics I've Had Over The Years, But That's A Whole Different Story)). I Still Use Northern Smilian To This Very Day (It's on ConWorkShop). I Still Have The Key Mostly Memorized.

For A While I Think Those Were The Two Main Conlangs I Used.
For A While The Name "Smilyian" Was Available. I Once Made A Conscript Named Smilyian That Was Simply Just Different {Smily}s.
But Then, One Day In Elementary School (4th Grade I Think), When We Were Watching A Movie, I Came Up With The Idea For A Perfect Conlang Code Thingy. It Was A Simple Idea. Instead of Changing Letters, Just Rearrange Them To Be In CV Consonants. And Add In Vowels And Consonants Where Needed. It Guarantees {"Pronounceability"}. I Had Finally Come Up With A Conlang Worthy of The Name {"Smilyian"}. I Used It Alot (I Think). Immediately I Decided That Certain Letter Combinations, Like Th, Sh, Ch and Ng, Should Be Merged Into Single Letters (ð, ß, ч, and ŋ Respectively) Instead of Two Letters. "Y" Became "ê" When Pronounced Like "EE" (/i/), "î" When Like "AY[?]" (/aɪ/), and "â" When "Ih" (/ɪ/). {Later Hard C was "C^" and Soft Was "C„"}. Later Still I Realized I Couldn't Use The Special Characters When Using A Book and Quill In Minecraft, So {ð, ß, ч, and ŋ} Became {tt, ss, cc, and nn Respectively}. But Then I Began Adding More Letter Combination Thingies, Like Rh, and Wh, And I Forgot Whether The Added Vowels Were {The Vowels Alphabetically Consecutively After The Previous Vowels in The Word} or {Alphabetically Consecutively After The Previous Consonants In The Word}, So I Decided To Make It Both. Which Meant That Longer Words With More Added Vowels had Groups Of More Than Two, So I Used The "¦" {Symbol/Punctuation}. Then I Added Even More Letter Combination Thingies, Like Al, And {"U" as in "Cube"}, And {"T" and "Io" as in "Action"}, and {"Er"}, and {"Ch" as In {"Machine"}, {"Chimney"}, and {"Chemistry"}}, and Many More. And It Became To Complex. I Started To Use It Less. Then I Kindof Stopped Using Smilyian Completely. I Think This is When I Started Reconstructing Creeper Latin. I Probably Started Using Northern Smilian More Again. But During The Time Smilian Was Fading, Many New Conlangs Were Being Made By Me. They Were All In One of My Many Notebooks. It Was In One Of The Most Filled and Important Ones, One of The Big Green Ones, Maybe Even THE Big Green One, But I Still Used The Other Ones Often Too. One Day I Decided To Make A Chart of 24 of Them On The Back of The Notebook. It Later Fell Off, But That Was Kindof Convenient, as It Had All The Keys. At Approximately 5:58 Pm, Saturday, September 1, 2018,When Me And My Mom Visited The City She Grew Up In, I Finished Making an Official 6×6 Chart of 36 Languages, Most of Them From The Big Green Notebook. I Named Them The Trihexling Languages (Because Greek and Latin and 36). I Attached It To The Old Chart. One Of The Ones I Used Alot Back Then Was Lansfax. I Came Up With The Name By Choosing Two "Random" Places on One of My Globes. I Ended Up Using {Lansing, Michigan} and {Sfax, Tunisia}. Lansfax Was Mostly Typographical, Not Phonetic. It Was One of The Conlangs Were In The Key {Letters Switch Places}.

Among The Other Languages I Used Often At The Time Were Spaokobban, Sfaxlan, Old Sfaxlan, Ennelphibati (Which Became Enfibo, Then Nelpu), And Others. Often A New Conlang Would Replace and Old One In The Trihexling Chart. But Over Time, I Slowly Stopped Using Them, Especially Smilyian. I Ended Up Forgetting How To Use Smilyian as It Had Become Too Complex.
Enter 2019.
This Is When I Made Personally Influencial Conscripts. They Are Just About All For Use For English. These Include Oxbox (Very Important), Yekklo, Syllabican (Used For Monadic and Dyadic Syllabican Conlangs), Lankojesian, and Tadenimo. On May 24, 2019, Tadenimo Spawned In Inomated Sfaxing, Similar To Lansfax, Except Most of The Pairs Were Phonetic, And I Started Using It Alot. It Kindof Left Lansfax In The Dust. I've Barely Used Lansfax Even A Little Bit Since Then.
Inomated Sfaxing is Also on ConWorkShop. September Created Ristilk (Almost Named Ridalk). December Created Marbleon, And At And After Christmas, Hingrack (Pronounced Like "Hinge Rack"), A Conlang That Can Represent Any Word As One Glyph I Used That One Alot For A Month or A Few. Amongst Hingrack's Siblings Are Linneze, Parlong, And Anglin.
ENTER 2020.
During Quarantine and Covid, I Kindof Experienced A Kind of Renaissance. I May Have Made The Popular-At-The-Time Septuagenibinic (Script), and Quoon (Lang) During January and February, But March 2020 Was The Month Of Conlangs and Conscripts. In March I Made 29 of Them. Among The March Conscripts And Conlangs Are {The Four of Phlox, Lansk, Zixwoth, and Anaphcete}. In April I Made 16 Conlangs and Conscripts. Among Them Are Acalaca (Script) and Netabit (Script).
Then, at 10:52 PM, Tuesday, May 12, 2020 CE, I Decided To Bring Back Smilyian. But This Time, I Decided To Keep It Simple. It's The Same Basic Idea. But Without The Letter Combination Thingies. Also, All Words Start with a Consonant and End with A Vowel. I Decided To Name it Smilian, Pronounced Like Smilyian, and Have The Previous Smilyian as {"Smily-ian"}. This Was Once Again Revolutionary. I Used It All The Time, And Instantly Became The Most Used Conlang [By Me]. I Also Made 12 Other Conlangs and Conscripts During That May. In June, My Mom Took Away The Green "Composition" Notebook That I Had Cataloged All My Conlangs and Conscripts From That Year (And A Few Older Ones), Ergo Causing The Count To Only Be 3 Conscripts/Conlangs. One From Before She Took It, And Two From When I Sneaked It Back, But She Was Okay With It Since It Was Around The Later Part of The Month. Friday June 26 was A Day Filled With Many Events, But That's Whole "Nother" Story Too. In July I Made 6 Conlangs/Conscripts. ✎ Edit Article ✖ Delete Article
