Hey, everyone! I made a discord if you wanna come hang out with us: discord.gg/BdXEZDZP8G
As a finn, i see how this can be absolute hell for indoeuropeans. Arabic turkish hungarian finnish. Sounds natural, the best I can say.
Can't wait until the day when jan Misali makes a Conlang Critic episode of Dyrgidyk...
And I must say the name Dyrgidyk is fun to say.
*Dırgidık
I think this is the best conlang showcase that I’ve seen so far! Very clear presentation, very good pacing if you ask me, and also quite funny at times. Loved it❤❤
Omg thanks so much!
The best part is that they let native speaker read the examples. More conlangers should do that in their showcases.
@@artembaguinski9946 glad you liked that touch - I wasn't sure about it
A bit too fast for me :-)
Having spent well over a year crafting my own conlang whilst diving into the deepest crevices of the internet to watch people drive themselves insane making languages and delving into the catastrophic rabbit hole that is linguistics, this singular conlang has stood out the most. I mean - I've had my fair share of conlangs with extreme morphology after watching Biblaridion's nightmare that is Ilothwii, but Dyrgidyk honestly feels more aesthetically pleasing and despite the absolutely ridiculous words like "sogzoloktaajmarkiğuumdanrumur" simply existing now in the deep catacombs of my brain, I love this conlang. Good work dude, keep it up!!
Wait a minute, then how did I make one in a day? AM I THE LORD OF ALL LANGUAGES??????
this is insanely well made. you make it not look nightmarishly complex to grasp and understand and organize!
Yay! This language's showcase tape has tocome! 🙌😁
Also, I laughed when I realised that the affixual cluster “-rumur” happened to sound a lot like “rumour” and “rumor”! 😅
and the word for big /tʃoŋ/ sounds like chungus
Amazing video, I loved the bit about GTA Online BMX tricks
This seems to be inspired by Turkish or another Turkic language, I can see the words such as kızıl (crimson) and demir (iron) have the same exact meaning.
The language is agglutinative and the letters selected to present the sounds are exactly the same in Turkish except c and ç being swapped, I really like it!
I also noticed jama (yemek, to eat) at 4:10 and kara (black) at 8:46.
My friend, 0:28 was so, so powerful. Lovely showcase!
lotta turkic influences, like it! as a speaker of one, my ears pleased by the sound of your conlang good luck with this one!
Very well made conlang showcase video! Dyrgidyk is cool language!
Super cool. Great sounding language.
🙂
really cool conlang and video, your conlang sounds heavily inspired by Turkish
Sounds like a mix between Turkish Hungarian and Finnish... mostly due to all the agglutination and the Cases...
let’s go, silly cat
lets gooooor
Sounds like a mix between Turkish and Finnish
Great work :)
I love you. This is amazing
Nice video.
This language has a very similar morphology to one of my conlangs that I've been creating on and off for like 20 years, even the "bracket" morphemes.
Great minds think alike ;)
Yo, this one is a little bit simillar to a conlang of mine called Akhamese. The vowels are 1:1 (besides the usage of "ı". I have "ë" instead), the vowel harmony is also the same. In an evolved version of the language I use reduplication as vowel length marker, and "r" prefix for the perfective aspect. But that... all simillarities.
Your grammar is awesome btw, keep it up.
This is sick! The amount of diaeresis hurts me eyes, but still looks super cool. Great work
Really cool!
Oh just saw your video where you try to sing in Dyrgidyk, and now I understand why it sounds like it does, it's clearly based on the Turkic language family.
Although I'd say it resembles the Ugric language family more in Grammar.
Omg it's the English With A Toki Pona Accent guy! Cool stuff
Getting some nice Central Asia vibes from this, definitely includes both Turkic morphology and vocab, but the incorporation and evidentiality are inspired by Siberian languages I believe?
Unless you just happen to know of those features from an indigenous lang and like them, in which case awesome bc natam langs and their relatives don't get enough love.
Edit: By Siberian I mean like, Yupik and relatives (Sirenik never dies!), sorry if that was unclear
Never thought I'd hear "mf'er" be used as a particle 😂
I haven't studied an inch of Turkish, but this does brings Turkish/Turkic vibes, as someone else mentioned.
All in all, it's a really neat language - or as the Ína people say, ".ėcta kiténotwe"
The complexity of this conlang makes "toki pona" infant mewlings .
Did you use a program for the audio recordings? Great video btw!
The sample sentences are just my voice pitched down a little. I recorded all the audio in Adobe Audition
That's rellay good ! It's giving me turkish and uralic vibes!
The language examples you gave seemed read by someone else but you said it was a personal conlang. Did you use a synthetizer or something ?
It’s my voice pitched down slightly hehe
@@Oziji okiiii ! Thanks for letting me know !
Less go
For a few corrections, you seem to be mistaken on terminology. An 'optative mood' doesn't indicate what 'should' be, it indicates something that is desired (similar to a jussive mood if you've heard of that). Also, in languages with evidentiality, the 'hearsay' marker normally indicates that information is dubious rather than 'apparently'. It would be more akin to 'supposedly'. Using these, the sentence should translate to something like 'I hear that it was wanted to be held by leather chords'.
huh I like it!
I smell vowel harmony.
you have keen nostrils
@@Oziji well thank you
Why did you make it that = /t͡ʃ/ and = /d͡ʒ/ and not the other way around! It's exactly the opposite in Turkish orthography, which makes it totally counterintuitive, considering there's some Turkish/Turkic influence in this conlang
i was unaware of that specific thing when i made the romanisation used in this video, should prob change it
I was going to say the same thing
Is the practice of hurrying through a conlang showcase a good development in UA-cam conlanging? Is it an influence from jan Misali, or maybe just directly an attempt to keep people's attention? While a longer video might be more daunting to start watching, one that took its time more might be easier to follow and better at getting the info across. Eventually I just stopped pausing and reading.
Language is good though. :)
Definitely some influence from jan Misali, and attempt to keep people’s attention. I think it’s basically a generational thing, cause younger people’s attention spans have been ruined by TikTok and the like
This is the type of language giant wise wizard elves of the elder forest would speak
First of all, love your aesthetic! Looks great and sounds awesome!
But secondly, why wouldn't you use a more intuitive romanisation syatem?😅 I didn't notice any h's, so using "kh" "gh" "ch" etc. would be both easier to type and look nicer...
I used to use those digraphs but I wanted it to be more compact and have one character per phoneme (apart from long vowels lol). not a massive fan of tbh, but i went with that instead of to be consistent with . Still might update the romanisation in the future
Sounds pretty related to mine, lol. (Hungarian.)
so would you able to teach this language to your newborn children and they will grow up to be fluent in this
(TL; DR - I think so)
Very good question. I can't speak the language fluently, but that's likely because I haven't practiced enough, not because it's impossible to become fluent. If I were fluent and spoke to my children in dyrgidyk, I think they'd be able to acquire it like any other language, since the grammar isn't vastly different from natural languages, as is the case with Lojban for example.
Raising your kids to speak your conlang is the ultimate (possibly unethical) way of developing it.
Babies learn languages in a very different way to adults. They miss hear and mispronounce things.
The errors they make are part of what makes languages evolve.
I guess I could write a new grammar of the acquired dialect of Dyrgidyk spoken by my children.
did you use a text to speech program? if yes can you please tell me which
nope, it's just my voice pitched down
@@Oziji oh ok
Just fyi Mood doesnt usually refer to the mood of the speaker, but rather whether or not it is factual or hypothetical, etc.
Edit: Oh, you mispoke earlier in the video
dw, I know what mood means, although your definition is a lot better than the one I gave.
good morning
I would love to see the culture that speaks dırgidık
That's the main thing I'm working on atm!
This video also touches on it: ua-cam.com/video/RQQMfRkDrLg/v-deo.html
the orthography looks like Turkish and Finnish made out passionately
actually no the language itself does too, love it though
did your parents actually speak to you in toki pona?
no lol
Hello can you pretty please teach me Dırgidık I pearsonally think that it is very beautiful (definetly influenced by turkic and mongolic languadges) I also suggest the [ɑ] to be written with the ä instead by the a thanks pleas respond to me and bye!
Thanks! Even I can't speak Dyrgidyk fluently yet. This video is probably the best resource, but i'm usually on our discord server ( discord.gg/BdXEZDZP8G ) if you want to know anything which this video doesn't cover. I just also added my main spreadsheet with the dictionary and everything to the video description.
I've been writing [a] as cause the umlaut is normally placed on an to front it. I think I'm gonna change this tho, cause [a] is like the most common sound in the language and it looks a bit cluttered when you have words like
@@Oziji thank you very much, and sorry for some misspellings i do not speak English as my native tounge it is the Slavic languadge of SLOVENIAN. I woud absoluteley love if you did a overviev of the languadge (i know i am asking for a lot you can say no, it is just a suggestion) i also suggest you make even more videos about it. Also you can make a background of the languadge. (also i think that you shoud keep using the ä for the [a] sound it gives the languadge a unique astetic when romanized. And an idea further develop the culture for example that sample at the start coud be turned into a prayer for the peapole. and my opinion on the script honestly to me it doesnt look good and it is not terrible altho i wod change it. Thanks for repling, hope you respond and bye.also LP wich in slovenian means lep pozdrav [lep pozdɾau] it is pronounced and it means (literally) good=dober pozdrav=salute (good salute)
@@Oziji also write j with y bye
The sample at the start actually is meant to be a prayer. I have a few videos about the culture Dyrgidyk exists in which you can find here:
ua-cam.com/play/PLT4BmfriVgdHDZPLIf4AfERfT8pshapCW.html&si=TwL5RoN5A6-S-i8X
I changed the script recently cause I wasn't super keen on it either. the Short in that playlist has the newer script.
I really like how looks, plus it's consistent with the ipa [j], so i'm gonna stick with it. Big respect to Slovenian for writing [j] as hehe

This means: Ah yes, this language is from the first two letters from a word. I can talk in English if you would like.
I have my own language too! In my case: Hor yɑwetus utyi!

Is dırgidık meant to be a medieval language
It's spoken by a fictional people whose culture and technology is different to the medieval period, so basically, it isn't
Smells like turkic
and ə with ö ü ă â ą ę or á (or eneything else)

Translated the introduction to my conlang (no commas)
Oh njuk túú kėkėh. uuk kaku ė ghúkė. uuk tėtėnj kúúh thó. oh njuk kėkėh drung. uuk rė hėnj ė ji. li uuk kinj khėl.
anyone else watch the entire video and understand the words but not understand the words
torkish
please help me
What’s up?
nothing
אתה לא יכול להבין את מה שכתבתי פה
כן אני יכול
אז אתה כן מדבר עברית@@Oziji
גוגל טרנסלייט, ידידי
Horrendous romanization.
How would you improve it?
@@Oziji
Consistent diacritic usage:
/e̞ ə a ɑ t̠͡ʃ d̠͡ʒ ʃ ʒ/
Use of the Latin letter space:
/x ɣ ŋ/ | /x ɣ ŋ/
Economical representation of long vowels (unless they’re actually hiatus and do need two symbols to represent two segments):
/iː/
so, the first line of the sample at 0:00 would be
"se̹na̹jā̦rna̹ a̹ra̹ja̹,
ū̦shā ka̹z̹la̹k a̹j jina̹laqhā̦ zīqgeq" ?
Definitely more concise, I respect it.
