Fair Warning
Creation of a language takes time. If it's taking too long for your tastes, either be patient or poke me. I won't mind, nor ignore, the reminder.
Language Requesting
You've come here for one of two reasons - you took a wrong turn, or you show interest in a language for your species. If the former, please don't leave we need business. If the latter, I approve. You just need to fill out the form below, then you can have your language! After a fee and some ample time, of course.
A fee?
Yeeeah, a fee. Not your favorite two words, I imagine, but the truth is, it gives me income to do stuff and doing stuff is good. Besides, this is the creation of a language, which is time-consuming and a big undertaking even for one greater and more experienced than I. The important part of this thing is that the fee is 100CC. That's not overexuberant, it's actually a week's regular wage or a good amount of income from an adoptables store. It shouldn't take long to save this much up.
What do I get for my money?
Excellent question! You get a 100-word dictionary, first of all, in your own language thread. These are essential words taken from the root language. In addition to that, you get the ability to request any word be added to the dictionary at any time! If you want a more expansive dictionary from the get-go, you can request as many words as you pay CC. 250CC nets you 250 words, 500 gets you 500, 234 is 234. Simple enough.
Do I need to be the owner of the species to request the language?
It's preferred, but no. If you do own the species, you can make that language the official species' language, but you can request a language for just a specific non-canon culture group of a species (for example, you can request a language for 'just your herd' of Kylos, considering different herds have been shown to speak different languages.)
Do I have to have a species to go with the language?
Nope! You can request just a generic language if you like. Go wild with that! Make your OC 'the keeper of the language', meant to pass down the knowledge to future generations. Put a mystical stone in the middle of the forest, bestowing the knowledge of the language to those who touch it. Heck, even use it for personal reasons!
Can I take these off-site?
Knock yourself out, bud. A link back here would be highly preferred, but knock yourself out.
