Me #learning
#klingon / #tlhingan is probably the first time I'm really *consciously* trying to learn a language and the first time I'm learning something completely from scratch in a long time.

Lots of other things have mnemonics or you heard them before or they fit nicely into some logic framework.

Not so with a made up language. Truly a different experience.

I'm surprised by what words and concepts are just... there when trying to remember something. And which aren't.

#education

#tlhingan oh look. "ghoti" is "fish". That's going to be easy to remember at least. 🙂

I just noticed that the #klingon #tlhingan language naturally follows the paradigm of

object verb subject

that's established itself in #programming

e.g.

result = add ( a, b )

esoteric klingon programming language when?

@pontulo I am enjoying it *a lot*.

Duolingo is crazy good at what they do.

I'm a bit stuck on the personal prefix business, they dropped that all at once and the examples don't make it clear which is which (singular you/ plural you in English does what in relation to which other case) but I will power through that.

Thanks for the tip, I already knew about the institute, and rediscovered them when looking for a font.
