About Collaborlang
My buddy from college, whom I'd like to keep anonymous but hereafter named N, invited me to conlang with him in 2019, and I've been slowly developing its grammar and lexicon over the past few months. I found my old account here, so I thought I'd migrate my work to here from a Google Doc.
I took most of the direction in this language, but my bud, N, has more experience in conlanging so he guided me as I got my feet wet in conlanging again. I wanted to really play around with a langauge with consonant clusters I like the sound of and I also wanted to make gratuitous use of palatals and voiced consonants, along with having some fun with orthography.
I also wanted to try out expressing agents and patients differently from how I'm used to, so I want the Collaborlang to reflect my experience in that.
