typh is considering stopping esperanto and learning another conlang in its stead. what should i do

keep in mind im also learning french and japanese

it seems the croud consensus is that i slow down on esperanto but don't give up on it completely

i'm down. okay, so what conlang should i focus on in its stead? im not gonna make this one a poll cos there are so many, just tell me what your recommendations are

@typhlosion@awoo.space i'm figuring that a lot of people will have solid suggestions of specific conlangs, but I wanted to toss this one into the pile, just in case: what about making your own?

@InspectorCaracal i am like, constantly devoting 1% of my brainpower to thinking about this exact thing

tbh i need to just sit down and develop a grammar and get cracking on a swadesh list or something

@typhlosion@awoo.space conlanging is GREAT

I have an extremely slow-progress conlang I've been dabbling with for ages and it's loads of fun, especially if you ignore the criticisms of people whose idea of a conlang is 50% academic linguistics jargon

@InspectorCaracal japanese has been really inspirational tbh! it's always fun to have your brain very slightly broken by a language with a grammar that's pretty different from your own

somehow i already have two really sophisticated writing systems developed and i dont even have the language yet

(well i have the phonotactics because they informed how the scripts work but not the language itself)
