Discord: looks like it's your lucky day, there's an update!
me (sarcastically): oh yay, I can't use discord for a couple of days, until the update gets approved by my OS maintainers

conlang (Tlueqto) | grammatical vowel harmony
Any thoughts? Does this feel natural?
conlang (Tlueqto) | grammatical vowel harmony
So, here's my idea: historically, the affix /nɯ-/ was attached to the front of nouns to form the plural, and because this contains /ɯ/ (a back vowel) the rest of the word is forced to be all back vowels (because of vowel harmony).
so (originally), to pluralise /pɛɬá/, you would say /nɯpɤɬʌ́/
But hundreds of years of language change meant that the /nɯ/ ended up being dropped, and the only difference between singular and plural is the vowels inside.
conlang (Tlueqto) | grammatical vowel harmony
In real life languages with complex vowel changes, these were historically created by a affix that, after several sound changes, was dropped at some point.
So, in order for my vowel harmony system to actually exist, it can't have occurred intentionally – it must have been the consequence of a historical affix.
(continued)
conlang (Tlueqto) | grammatical vowel harmony
So tɬɯ́qtɤ has vowel harmony (meaning there are 2 categories of vowels, and a word can only ever contain vowels form one category or the other, not from both) but unlike real world languages the vowel harmony actually has a grammatical effect on the word.
So for example, pɛɬá is cat (all vowels are front vowels), and pɤɬʌ́ is cats (all vowels are back vowels).
But, this is not particularly realistic...

It's been 255 days since I started rewatching the classic series.
In that time I've watched 355 episodes.
I am now 41.76% of the way through the entire series.
Of what I've seen so far, 185 episodes (52.11%) are recommended for watching.
I have now watched 69 stories (nice).

Classic Doctor Who | Season 10
And that's the end of Season 10.
This season had THREE highly recommended stories. That's a lot!
Jo is almost definitely one of my favourite companions of the Doctor (and I actually have Katy Manning's signature, somewhere)
I'm excited for next season, though, as it introduces Sarah Jane Smith, a companion who I haven't seen any episodes of for years...
Classic Doctor Who | Season 10 | The Green Death
ah gosh.... that scene where the Doctor says goodbye to Jo... I'm crying...

The page is now significantly updated!
It's prettier, it's been proofread, and it has easy navigation between segments!
https://averylychee.neocities.org/doctor-who/audio-guide/
(I also listened to The Paradise of Death, which was good)
site stuff
how did I not know about box shadows before, my site looks so much better now
site stuff
I just updated my site so that:
* the background behind (most) pages is lighter coloured, which sould make it easier to read. If there's still stuff that's hard to read, let me know!
* boxes, details things, and some headings have shadows, so they stand out more and make the site look less flat.
