@lisamelton Hah! #Dothraki!

This is a great piece on "conlangs" - constructed languages today mainly used to make TV shows and movies feel more realistic. I've always found the idea of constructing an entire language to be very intriguing - the amount of work and thought that goes into such a project is daunting. Conlangs can flesh out fictional worlds just as much as CGI landscapes.

‼️Ling nerd alert: famed language creator(s) of fantasy and scifi shows and movies like #GoT and Dune are cohosting an event with the CEO of a langtech company from portugal that I've been following for... 10 years??

I tried to work there like ..3 times? and seriously contemplated moving to Lisbon once before my mom got sick and it never worked out.

I'm fangirl-ing on so many levels right now. Never been more excited for a 4 hour mini conference that starts at 5AM.
