Talk:Kostish

Some parts spell this conlang as "Evanisk". The title says "Evonisk".

The English name for "Evonisk" is Evanish, but in the language itself, it is refered to as "Evonisk", like how we would call the Dutch language just "Dutch" but they would call it "Nederlanders". As for "Evanisk" with a 'k', I searched for it manually and used Ctrl+f but didn't find the word once.OlykoekSlayer 18:04, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

Technically not about the article, but about the language. In the beginning you say that you're thinking about adding the genders of animate and inanimate. If you do, make it common and neuter like in Danish, Dutch, and Low German. Which is basically the same, just different terminology.

In addition, (because you say you're not entirely sure about it) your IPA is correct. (I myself actually can't bring myself to write it totally correctly--in my opinion, stuff like /oʊ/ should be /'ou/, because the /ʊ/ sound is not present at all that diphthong. And the distinguishing /ɛ/ and /e/ or /ɑ/ and /a/, to me, seems pointless.) But your phonology is perfect according to official IPA.

Cool conlang, by the way. Xwarq 21:50, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, thanks, yeah I also heard how Swedish uses common and neuter as well, I'll change it to that. Oh and thanks for clarifying that about the IPA.
