@typhlosion what about toki pona?
@Felthry that's one of the ones i'm considering! i'd like to see what different folks recommend though
@typhlosion you could also do like, sindarin or klingon, and learn something that's completely useless outside of conventions
@Felthry in fairness, lojban is also pretty useless in most situations. conlangs in general are pretty useless
anyway i considered it, but the problem is that i don't really have an emotional connection to the source material of klingon or sindarin
or really any artlang other than maybe the dwarven language of paolini's inheritance books, but i'm not sure learning material for that language even exists
