Hi guys, let's post the Tower of Babel in our conlang's. It'll make for an interesting linguistic comparison. For those of you who don't post, you will pay dearly :twisted: .

Just kidding :lol:


Lingua Romana:
1. E tota la tera aveva una singula lingua, ed uno modo de parlare.
2. Ed era com eli venevan del oriente, eli trovaro un campo in tera de Shinar ed abitaro achelo.
3. E dissiro uno ad un altro, "Venite! Che construamo lateri e le ardamo al foco."
4. Ed eli dissiro, "Venite! Che ni construamo una citate ed una ture, col capite in cielo, e che ni facamo un nome, che no siemo perduti supra tota la tera."
5. E Deo descendu pro vedere la citate e la ture che i filii del Omo edificasseran.
6. E Deo dissi, "Ece! Una nazione ed una lingua pro toti, e chesta eli avun inceputo a facere. E nun, toto che ei volun facere no sera interdito."
7. Venite! Vadamo descendere e vadamo confundare la lingua loro achelo, che no audia un omo la lingua del suo amico.
8. E Deo i espansi poia supra tota la tera, ed eli cessaro edificare la citate.
9. Pro chela cosa, suo nome est Babel, pro che Deo a confundato achelo la lingua de tota la tera: e poia Deo i ave espansi in tote tere.

¡Avé!

Here's the Tower of Babel in Avorenta:

1. I h-elón’ Edzúr elum errákum et elu h-encóru h-ájdó.
2. Ênnil nőgir oggefinestó, Śińáris lannor nágest a bós entrelannum e hatt diflázestó.
3. Śe cárest ellanáj: “¡Fimminz, dífenz berikku het únűrenz u feltat!" I berikkum tildestúnoj, i beśtum roêndájgánoj iskidestó.
4. Lapte śe cárest: “¡Ejja, tildenz dúnum e tijórum, follis refitt il eskálti h-ám! Oftájnenz fendáj missum, e gin igestréjenz il Edzúror!”
5. Lájk i h-Allâs difortó, ćo gefűloz i dúnum et i tijórum, follum i míne tildestó.
6. Śe laum: “Révinz, ill an fox e h-an errákum límest. Ill or i h-úzán i ves ferkis. Ipte freńńa son rá démaneńńa váj, follis rekkarvelánum ogelorronstá.
7. ¡Illad ortanz dif e dichtanz têr i ves errákum, ćo qweńńa gin sinoz i lojgis errákum!"
8. I h-Allâs fixi h-igestroj veum hatti l-elón’ Edzúror, et inasófen lájchestó hi dúnis tildán.
9. Illad mísontu la Bábeláj, dé l-Allâs hatt têrdichtó l-elón’ Edzúris errákum e hatti h- igestrojüst i h-Allâs i h-elón’ Edzúror.

Would you be offended if I said your conlang resembles Hungarian on crack cocaine?

:D You have great observations - Avorenta is based on Hungarian (please have a look at http://avorenta.uw.hu). But I'm not a cocainist :D

I recognize the word "nyelv." That's about it. I take it you are Hungarian?

Yes, I'm Hungarian.

Another thing. Once I learnt the Arabic alphabet, just for fun. If I read it correctly, the Arabic text in your posts is " ašt flstyn hr a abya mn alnhr ali albhr ". How does it sound with vowels and what does it mean?

Aeetrcreejl, your first conlang seems to suffer from what I call diacritic overload syndrome. That's not a criticism per se, I'm just thinking it won't be clear to readers what all those graphemes mean. (Are they tones or ...?) But your second conlang is cool. It reminds me strongly of a Turkic language. Weren't you studying Azeri at one point?

The technical transcription is ʿāšit filasṭīn ḥurrah abīyah min an-nahr ilā 'l-baḥr. It means "long live Palestine, free and proud, from the river to the sea."
