What is a conlang (constructed language)?

A conlang is a language that is artificially created rather than occurring naturally. Many conlangs are created for artistic use, particularly in sci-fi and fantasy media. Chances are if you’re interested in these genres, you’ve already heard or read some conlangs! Klingon, Sindarin, and Dothraki are well-known conlangs in popular books, TV series, and movies.

Using a conlang can make your characters’ world seem a little closer to reality. It enriches your story, and your fans might even attempt to learn it!

If you’re not sure where to start, I can give you some guidance grounded in my study of linguistics, or I can build it myself and provide you with translations for certain words and sentences in your story.
