Generates random fantasy / constructed languages
SynthLang is heavily inspired by this reddit post by "Snarfilingus."
SynthLang doesn't do a lot of the fancy things that Language Generator does (yet?).
Generating Naming Languages An excellent blog post about generating words. I wish I would have read this before starting on this project.
Language Generator The inspiration for this project
There may be a demo running here.
- Select english sample vocabulary randomly from a larger pool of words
- Some sort of UI for tweaking language parameters
- Improved (optional? parametric?) filtering of output for pronounceability
- Syllable parts should be associated with sounds and there should be tooltips explaining how to pronounce a word
- When combining syllables to make words, should we obey syllable part weights? Probably.
- Words should be particular parts of speech and we should be able to conjugate them
- Generate some prepositions and Lordly titles and such
- Languages should occasionally be strewn with apostrophes and perhaps hyphens
