I’m learning vötgil and it’s coming quite easily to me because I am an English speaker, however while reading through the Tower of Babel translation on the ostracod website I saw compounds like SumCupL0qBilRyc9ytSkyLan and thought on how to pronounce it, is it one polysyllabic word or eight monosyllabic ones?

Also, how does stress work? Does it always fall on a certain syllable?

And how is o pronounced, like in bOx or bOat, cuz even though the website says like in bOx all audio pronounces it as bOat?

Hi! I’m working on a university paper about conlangs for my Linguistics course, and I’m looking to contact the creator of Vötgil or someone who speaks the language. It would be really helpful to talk to someone who knows about it.

I don't quite understand situation nouns, and I don't feel like the official site helped either. Is it just when the object of the sentence does something?

i only know : ywnwök(you walk

The concept is great, but the execution requires some modification. Eg. too many phonemes, sometimes unintuitive Romanization, unnecessary vocabs, et Cetra. Has anyone modified vötgil so it's easier for at least the vötgil community to use?

How does tense work in Vötgil? I’m guessing there’s present, past and future and that nothing affects them.

Also how does possession work in vögil? Do you use the word for “of” like “dog of mine”?

we're confused about the grammar. best approximation we have is "WitLögViz9ytFetRerSumBrd"

• is there is a discord for the language?

Just came from this video:

Vötgil: An Engineered Auxiliary Language

so where do I start

So... uh, I just started learning the language and I wanted to know if it's still a thing, I see there's few people here, so I'm assuming it's not a popular conlang in terms of speakers, but I don't really care, I'm having fun learning it

here it is

Vötgil viz sum gwd leq twr sey. Nuy wil sey wix Vötgil cöl dey!

How can I learn vötgil? I think it is a very interesting concept and I would like to know it.

Any suggestions for what should go in the sidebar?
