Some notes on words and ideas tried in recent conversations:

  • Sentence structure seems to be mainly «subject» «verb» «object» order like English.
  • ¿question? -- Spanish-style question marks to indicate a sentence is a question. Helps make the language visually distinctive from both Japanese and Chinese.
  • ¡exclamation! -- Similar to above, but for exclamations.
  • «quote» -- esp. for a non-愛島言 word or explaining a term (e.g. «chili», «breakfast sandwich», «the recent past»)
  • 「quote」-- Japanese/Chinese-style quote brackets -- esp. for quoting an 愛島言 term or expression. (e.g. when you need help figuring out what a word means)
  • ゐゝ -- Neato/nice/good (slang; ゐ is an archaic Japanese hiragana, wi, usually pronounced more or less the same as い now -- i.e. ee sound. ゝ is the hiragana repetition mark. Tossed 'em in here for fun.)
  • 分心 -- understand
  • ね -- ya know/right? (sentence ending)
  • 文法 -- grammar (I made a typo -- 文保 -- before when borrowing from Japanese, but suggest replacing that...)
  • 機 -- machine
  • 愛言機 -- AI/LLM (punny... 😑️)
  • 眠 -- sleep
  • 病 -- sick/illness/health problem
  • 無好眠 -- tired (poor sleep)
  • 無眠病 -- insomnia
  • 写档 -- drawing
  • 新 -- new
  • 新写 -- edit (e.g. when describing how you updated a comment)
  • 近時 -- recently (could be read as "soon" though -- how to distinguish?)
  • 過去 -- past
  • 未来 -- future
  • 食過去 -- ate (Maybe we can use 食未来 for "will eat"? Might be interesting to experiment with use of 了 for completion of an action too but this is unexplored at time of writing.)
