The Machine is ON...

Continuing the work with Alexander's story. I finally fixed the recording problem, and seems I have to record in a 16bit resolution which makes the file larger. Seems all the roads lead me to be using Flash capabilities for the myth section in the webpage. I am almost ready for making the first part of the "Alexander Chornicles". The chronicles will be divided into 6 "books" (i.e. 6 parts or stories).
1. the book of Beginning (Bshíthá)
2. the book of Geltan (Géltán)
3. the book of Bulughman (Bulughman)
4. the book of Zimura (Zimúrá)
5. the book of Hoshea (Hosha'a)
6. the book of Ayvar (Ayvár)

and as I promised before, here is a sample of the Ayvarith, after applying some effects of course.

I worked out a simple schematic diagrams for the classifications of conlangs in the world of Daynur...

The first group is the Ayvaric languages (click to enlarge):



















The second group is the Galaic (click to enlarge):




















The third group is the Bulghaic (click to enlarge):




















The fourth group is the Zimuraic (clik to enlarge):




















The fifth and final group is the Barbaric (click to enlarge):

Clogged With Thoughts...

Although, usually, I don't write anything within the story of Alexander in weekends, but today I made some lines in the 6th part. Not much compared to other days maybe, but I had some time to write some, yet not much inspiration for the miserable situation that I usually live every weekend.
Despite all that I grapped a paper and started to sketch some outlines. I began to classify the languages of the tribes and kingdoms mentioned in the map of the Daynur world.
The prime outline is divided into 5 categories of languages: Ayvaric, Galaic, Bulughiac, Zimuraic and Barbaric. I'm still looking in the map for the time being as this sketch might change later on. I guess I will have to do it and organize it properly by some other programs here and there.
I will try to publish this categorization somehow later on, maybe via Omniglot if Mr Ager accepted that. Beside this classification, I made a small chart as well to organize my work with putting a systematic change to the dialects in each main group of languages.
In the meantime as well, I'm putting the first corner stones for the upcoming conscript. I didn't specify yet for which tribe it would be, but the language shall be Ayvaric and derived from the Ayvarith, with a change in the vowel system and some consonants.
I think I will start recording the previous translations of the past parts of Alexander's story and put them as mp3s (or PCM Wav files) to make them ready for some action. I wonder if I have the power to work with Flash again!
We'll see!
