Braille
BRAILLE IS NOT A LANGUAGE!!!!1!!1111!!! It's a writing system, or more accurately, a code for representing letters of a writing system. Don't get me wrong, I think braille is cool and all. I learned it as a kid before they figured out I could read print better, but the point is, braille a writing system, not a language &mdash; Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.139.115.211 (talk) 00:09, 13 August 2007


 * This was addressed. Braille was removed, and a discussion of the status of written language was added.  --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 18:26, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Conlang questions?
So far, all the questions seem to be pretty much about linguistics, rather than about conlanging as such. For example, there ought to be some sort of basic questions about books, on-line resources, organizations &mdash; not sure if that's three questions, two questions, or one question. Somewhere in the answers would be, no doubt, some elaborated forms of "LCC" and "Zompist and CONLANG". --Pi zero (talk) 15:19, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, here are two questions that might be elaborated:
 * Q: Where can I find conlang resources? A: LCS. This is a variant on the "Where do I start?" question, a couple of sections back.
 * ✅ as "Is there a conlanging community?" --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 15:43, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Q: Is there a natlang with X? A: ANADEW.

 * Q: What's the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis?
 * We want a really good conlanging-oriented answer to this question.

 * Q: Is there such a thing as professional conlanging?

 * ✅ (or attempted) --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 23:17, 12 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Q: What is the earliest conlang?
 * --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 14:34, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅ (took a shot at it, anyway) --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 17:36, 10 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Q: Are their other books about conlanging?
 * --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 17:45, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * This, I'm realizing, is a very tricky question. It edges over toward asking what other resources there are, which is also related to the list of external links on the book main page. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 14:52, 13 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Q: Are their awards for conlanging?
