Paperback. Condizione: Good. Jeffrey Henning's Langmaker was a key resource for conlangers in the early 2000s. This book, from Yonagu Books, contains most of his writing for the site: All the issues of his Model Languages newsletter which introduced conlanging and linguistics to newcomers.Reviews of major conlangs that influenced this generation of conlangers, from Tolkien to Edgar Rice Burroughs to Richard Adams.Descriptions of Jeffrey's own languages, including Fith, Dublex, Kali-sise, Tev'Meckian, and Ilish. The material includes an entirely new chapter on case and a new conlang, Denju.In addition, the Conlangs at a Glance section of Langmaker has been reproduced and corrected.

Jeffrey casts a wider net, being interested in philosophical languages (like his Roxhai), logical languages (such as the fascinating stack-based Fith), and auxlangs (Kali-sisi, Simpenga). And don't miss his playful Tev'Meckian, the language of Galaxy Quest.Though you can seek out much of this material by judicious use of the Wayback Machine, all the material has been edited, errors corrected, phonemes converted to IPA, and extra material included, such as more on how Fith works, and the Tev'Meckian lexicon. The Conlangs at a Glance section was largely rewritten to give more and better information on the languages included.…
