Created page with "'''Toaq''' is the conlang (constructed language) that this wiki is about. It has been in development by its author, Hoemai, since 2013 (see the Timeline). It is based..."

New page

'''Toaq''' is the conlang (constructed language) that this wiki is about. It has been in development by its author, [[Hoemai]], since 2013 (see the [[Timeline]]).

It is based on [[predicate logic]] and [[plural logic]]. The syntax can be unambiguously translated into logical sentences:

<blockquote>{{t|Tu chảq bı, pảq sa gỉ cháq da.}}<br>
<math>[\forall C\colon \textsf{Day}(C)]~~[\exists G\colon \textsf{Good}(G)]~~\textsf{PartOf}(G, C).</math><br>
“For each day, something good is part of that day.”
</blockquote>

It is also a [[tonal]] language: it uses changes in pitch to distinguish grammatical meaning.

<blockquote>
<div style="display:inline-block; width:100px; text-align:center;">
<span class="toaq" lang="toaq" style="color:#00cc00">nỉe</span><br>“(it) is inside”<br><small>falling tone</small>
</div>
<div style="display:inline-block; width:100px; text-align:center;">
<span class="toaq" lang="toaq" style="color:#ff8800">níe</span><br>“the inside(s)”<br><small>rising tone</small>
</div>
<div style="display:inline-block; width:100px; text-align:center;">
<span class="toaq" lang="toaq" style="color:#5555ff">nìe</span><br>“inside of…”<br><small>mid tone</small>
</div>
</blockquote>

It also tries to be simple, flexible, not too unnatural, and cares about its aesthetics and human speakers. It's about halfway between “artlang” and “loglang” in conlang-space.

<blockquote>{{t|Nhu, enı, nỏqmıeq súq sa shỉ nỉ dủaobıu shou.}}
<br>“Anyway, here, taste one of these donuts.”</blockquote>

If you want to get started learning Toaq, read [https://toaq.net/TwE/00/ Toaq with Ease], or the more thorough [[reference grammar]].

There's a [[Discord]] where you can hang out with the community, and a [[Toadua|shared dictionary]] where anyone can make up new words.
