Aingeljã participated in the LCC6 Relay

During the Sixth Language Creation Conference (LCC6) held this weekend in Horsham (United Kingdom), the final results of the Conlang Relay Game were published, including the Aingeljã entry.

I received a text by William Barton written in his Semkanya conlang, which appears in his novel Crimson Darkness (Venusworld, Volume 1). Here you can read his Semkanya text.

My mission was to translate his text into Aingeljã and to pass the torch to the following participant, who was Daniel Quigly with his Dhanyelle conlang.

Here you can find the complete grammar and glossary for Aingeljã used in this Relay.

This is the video of the LCC6 second day. Aingeljã is mentioned in 3:45.36 minute.

 

 

Text in Aingeljã:

Smooth translation into English:

“I’m going crazy”

I have just woken up with a start. You have come closer to me quickly. I have been sleeping during the whole day. My wishes might lead me in my dreams and I will be lost in reverie. Probably they (feminine) have not taken notice of my hidden feelings towards them, but I knew all the images in my dream. These images were darkening the road and will not let me see my path, so sadness was taking control of me. Right now the only inner fear that makes me move might be a demon.

Pieter Bruegel the Elder's The Tower of Babel (1563)

The Babel Text in Aingeljã

Share Button

The most translated text in the conlang community is the Babel Text, or the history of the Tower of Babel. It corresponds to the following verses from the Bible, Genesis 11, 1-9. Here you can read the Aingeljã version:

  1. Denn tota a terra parlabe ũ mesme langaix et usabe as mesmas paraulas.
  2. Qwand ous homes emigreiren des oul’Est, troweiren illes una planalura na reggõ de Sinar e stauliçeiren-si lla.
  3. E diçeiren illes ũns ad autres: “Vadèms façre brecs e cocre-ous a foc.” Illes useiren brecs nou loc da petra, et asfaut nou loc da mortella.
  4. E diçeiren illes: “Vadèms costrujăre una citàt et una torra daqwe someta atanngge adast ou cell; ainsĩ nos esarèms famoses e nõ dispereixarèms-nus super a feza da terra.”
  5. Meh ou Mouser baixé per vidre a citàt et a torra qwe ous homes costrujaben de segat.
  6. E diçé-si: “Tots illes formen ũ sol pople e parlen ũ mesme langaix; e doul’eh sol ou principi de sas interprisas; naçata qwe illes proponen-si risoutré umposïul per illes.
  7. Jo vad baixăre confuixonăre sou langaix per qwe illes nõn entenden-si ũns cõn autres.”
  8. Ainsĩn ou Mouser dispereixé-ous de lla pur tota a terra et illes deixeiren costrujăre a cità.
  9. Pur dou motïu illa apellé-si Babell, pur qwe lla confuixoné ou Mouser ou langaix de tots ous hautants da terra, e des lla Ill dispereixé-ous pur tota sa surfiza.
