"Creating a conlang involves much more than stringing together some make-believe words. Languages are complex machines with many interlocking parts, and linguists must wield their expertise in these systems to create functional languages that suit their fictional speakers. That careful engineering not only adds depth and realism to many fantastical realms. It may also offer insight into the nature of language itself." https://www.sciencenews.org/article/conlang-fictional-languages-linguistics #Language #SFF #Linguistics
