I've been thinking for a couple months now: I should really get back into conlanging. I might be doxxing myself a little here, but at this point I don't know if I care: I'm looking for people who would like to help develop languages in The Elder Scrolls universe.

I am the original person who first worked on deciphering the grammar of Ta'agra (the Khajiiti language) and Jel (the Argonian language). Zenimax has shown that they're very open to fans continuing work on their languages, and making that work canon where appropriate. So while I could just take up the mantle again, especially considering The Ta'agra Project now seems to be defunct, it would lend more credibility to the work (and be a lot more fun) with a community of fellow nerds who would like to make up words for cat and lizard people, and hopefully the other cultures of Tamriel and beyond.

I've got the grammar largely sorted of both the aforementioned languages, so we just need words and people who would have fun using them. I do also have a formal education in linguistics and a lot of experience as a conlanger, so, I know my shit. Other than Ta'agra and Jel, I have a number of original languages, and have specialized in taking pseudo-conlangs from media and turning them into languages with actual grammars, including Asuran from Guild Wars 2, and Mantis from FTL: Faster Than Light. Hopefully that doesn't scare you off; anyone can create languages, especially words and new works in those languages. Come enjoy a new way to be artistic!

At its basis it'll be a Discord server (at least until Discord stops being the default place for nerds to gather) but I'm willing to bridge it to Telegram and Signal as well via Matrix. discord.gg/AkVqPevhq9
