Melroch 'Aestan [ˌmɛlrɔχ ˌɑɛ̯stan]? aka Benct Philip Jonsson [ˌbeŋkt ˌfiːlip ˈʑunsːon], creator of several conlangs, Sohlob (including Kijeb), Mærik Slvanjec, Bâzrâmani and Knòškè (formerly called "B-Noric") being the current ones.

I'm working on a Romlang sketch — basically some weird phonological and orthographic ideas. It is provisionally called "Romlang 3" or "R3", not because it is the third romlang I made, but since it is my third active romlang at the time I find it a good idea to start counting!

I'm piece by piece putting together a description of Vulgar Latin

Only after I renamed "B-Noric" as Knòškè did it occur to me that both Slvanjec and Knòškè mean 'language of (the) forest dwellers', but that they are separated by 2000 years and belong to different alternate timelines!

I'm also the perpetrator of the semiserious Ný AngloSaxon Speling.

There is also a not so brief explanation of my use of accent marks.

To-do list
