Welcome to the Danshali page
The language of the elements, full of genders, cases, and mad verbs.
Reviews:
Danshali is the language spoken in the country of Danshapu. Danshapu is an archipelago inhabited by a shamanistic society. This society's devotion to the elements can be felt in their language, which has 18 noun classes based on the elements they praise. This began as a sily idea, but in time, after many reworks, Danshali has ascended to become a genuinely interesting language, and my favourite to ever work on.
