The Toaq community is mainly centralized around a Discord server. We talk in and about Toaq, and share translations, poetry, prose, sound files, et cetera. There is even the occasional voice chat! Feel free to join.

Bots

nuogai is uakci~#4677's bot. It hosts a few Toaq utilities. Follow this page (or type in %help) to list its commands. Most usefully, % rabbit (with a space) looks up words matching "rabbit" on Toadua.

SOA manages voice chat roles, and also has a billion commands to pull up certain links or memes. Try !commands in the #test channel for a list of them.

If you want to be notified about voice chats when they happen, say !iamvoicechat in any channel to get the @voicechat role.

Roles

There is a rainbow-colored ladder of roles corresponding to language skill levels:

Role Meaning Skill level
"Pays attention" Participates in conversations about Toaq, but has not learned much Toaq.
Chıe "Learns" Knows some basic Toaq.
Joe "Skilled" Can read and write Toaq given time to look up words. Understands tricky grammar.
Choa "Utters" Can participate in basic real-time everyday spoken Toaq conversation. (like CEFR A1/A2)
Suoı "Great" Can speak freely and doesn't need a dictionary. (like CEFR B1/B2)
Jıao "God" Near-fluency or fluency. (like CEFR C1/C2)

Derani

In some channels you may encounter people using the Derani script. Without proper font support, these characters will display as □ boxes ('tofu'), or even just be invisible. To make Derani text visible, see the instructions for installing the font in Discord. To type Derani, see the input methods page.
