Translation Practice 1:

Hey again!

Today, I'm going to translate this paragraph:

hi.

you're on a rock floating in space.

pretty cool, huh?

some of it's water.

fuck it, actually most of it's water.

i can't even get from here to there without buying a boat.

it's sad.

i'm sad.

i miss you.

how did this happen?

a long time ago, actually never, and also now, nothing is nowhere.

when?

never.

makes sense, right?

like i said, it didn't happen.

nothing was never anywhere.

that's why it's been everywhere.

it's been so everywhere you don't need a where.

you don't even need a when.

that's how every it gets.

forget this.

i wanna be something.

go somewhere.

do something.

i want things to change.

i want to invent time and space.

and i know it's possible because everything is here and it probably already happened.

i just don't know when to start.

and that's exactly where it started.

I'm translating that today

Translation Practice (Update 1)

Hmm, I'm starting to doubt this... So, I started work on the "history of the entire world, i guess" script for my conlang because someone recommended it on Reddit (Which you can find here) . Anyway, I found the script at another Reddit post (see here) Right now, my progress is as stated here: I hope that this translation exercise will be finished! BTW, if you're really interested, go check out the main page; it has everything that I've worked on.

1st Part Finally Done! (Translation Update 2)

YES, I DID IT! But there's still a long way to go... Eh Anyway, I've finally finished the 1st part of the translation exercise, and I'm hoping for more progress during the Christmas break. Here's the video

The Beginning

Hey! I'm working on a conlang, Sag∼ki, and I'm trying to improve on my skills. (My last attempt, I just used a Toki Pona dictionary and added some stuff to it) Anyway, I'm going to post regularly here, and there should be a translation practice shortly after. You can also access my guide to the language (regularly updated) at this link , and submit ideas at this link (which is a Google Form). Hope you guys have a great day!
