Updates
2 February 2025
A very (late) Happy New Year to all who stumble upon this site. I've been busy IRL so there's only a small update for today: two new poems ('The Father Saved Me!' & 'Tibi, Domine, Cantamus et Volamus') and typo fixes on the Poems page; I hope you'll enjoy them! I also added my discord in the bio, as a more modern alternative to e-mail.
21 December 2024
I couldn't find a Dutch version of the Articles Of Religion anywhere online, only files of scanned-in documents. Thus I taken one of those and typed over the 39 Articles onto a page in the Dutch side of this website. I am considering copying over the whole Dutch Common Book of Prayer at some point, along with a Dutch translation of the Homilies (if I can find one).
16 December 2024
I have added verbs to the grammar pages, and updated the pronouns to add the distinction between masculine and feminine in the third person. I'm also working on a section for poetry and writings. Added my email to my bio, if you want to get in contact with me, you can do so there, I'll try to respond in time!
28 October 2024
Added the noun declension and footnotes to describe my thought process to the tungwurkung pages.
22 September 2024
I added the rest of the pronouns to the English and Dutch tungwurkung pages, also briefly added a section for essays I wrote but removed it afterwards.
7 September 2024
I have updated the dictionary of Dúvtung words with the latest list. Also started to translate the bits of grammar I add to the section into Dutch.
9 August 2024
I have made a lot of progress on my conlang, now named Dúvtung. Others in my circle have started to learn and to use it as well. I hope to add the grammar, vocabulary, and texts to the website once a gap in my busy life opens up. Also, this site passed 1000 views! Honestly I have no idea how, but it feels nice that my work is at least being viewed. I find it interesting that I find much more engagement (and far more direct engagement) on alternate web services like mastodon and neocities, than on others such as youtube or reddit. It goes to show that large corporate-controlled sites do not have people-to-people interactions in mind when designing their systems.
10 February 2024
Added the dictionary for Dúvsprak in both Dutch and English! I hope to complete the grammar page as well, and add some things to the Latin and (later) Greek page as well.
22 December 2023
I remade the page! I quickly threw this together a year ago, but never touched it afterwards. But now I wish to pick it back up again and to add things to it, so that I have a place to share and save the things I write and make. Hope you like what you find!
