About Graspagra
Graspagra is a proto-conlang that has been under at least some degree of construction since 2010. It's script was created first; and it has been recreated many times with the intent of making it easier and more efficient to write with each new iteration, simulating to some degree the natural course of a language.
The vocabulary came next, grabbing from French, Finnish, Basque, and my mind's intent at abstract onomatopoeia. The grammar stems from English, Russian, with an intent for more ease of use than the latter.
Lastly, I decided to try to make a role from the language, focusing on art and emotion, attempting to provide a vocabulary for the expression of hard-to-define feelings and nuances in describing the world around you.
I hope to one day have a finished product worth something. Though what, I do not know.
