Notebook Entry: We Just Can’t Give them Away

I think it’s just terrible that Puey has to stay on the other ship. Why does everyone keep saying that I have to stay on the safe ship, he’s the Crown Prince doesn’t he get to stay on the safe ship? Oh but we keep losing living ships in the Void! Great-Uncle and I were playing tnúpa jórqha chess this morning, but he had to leave. Grandfather Pátifhar needs his help. Something with archiving.
I’m trapped in here. No matter where I go some adult traps me. My parents, my guardians. The only one who releases me is Puey. But now he’s trapped too. Monsters out of the Void.
Great-Uncle’s packed away my notes. Everyone is saying a terrible blizzard will come tonight. I suppose it would be nice to take a break before heading onto a discussion on the suffixes of Babel. There are about twice as many suffix types than there are prefix times, but easily three or four more different suffixes. They will be a great deal to present, but most of them have such a simple, such a straightforward meaning that one only needs to learn the meaning and what position the suffix takes. So –afhtong means true, faithful, loyal and it’s a level two suffix, but –ulrukh means blue and it’s a level three suffix. So you already know what Puiyeyafhtongùlrukh means, Faithful and blue Puey, and you know that you have to write and say Puiyey-afhtong-ulrukh and not Puiyey-ulrukh-afhtong. That’s going to be a great deal of the presentation of the suffixes. It will be in explaining subordinate clauses, and voices, moods, and modes that some of the difficulties lie.
It’s gotten very dark here, and cold. The Vestal Virgins are keeping the fires hot and blazing in my quarters.
Tonight I’m going to make a list of all of the Participles I can imagine which take Inseperable Possession.
There are two different particples which take inseperable possession. The first are particles which already have possession builded into their meaning, I suppose I must be cautious since I think almost every Babel word implies I, my, me in it somewhere, but we’ll forgo that theory for now. For instance tnèfhta is my or our eye and tniêfhta is your eye and tneûfhta is his or her or their eye. When these words are possessed they almost always take the inseperable possession prefix, and so one says janatnèfhta my eye and khnatatnèfhta our eye and tlhiwatneûfhta their eye. In this case tneûfhta kekuxhrejor the eyen of them probably means that the eyen were cut out of someone. The second type of word which takes insperable possession would be those which do not already have possession builded into them, such as khmòpongu* bones. Forms like this are almost always possessed save in the vocative case. One may say aîkhmòpongu! Oh bones! But in normal discourse one speaks of poe khmòpongu my bones and toe khmòpongu thy bones and jingakhmòpongu those one’s bones. One usually doesn’t just find khmòpongu unpossessed in a sentence. Usually one only finds a word like that possessed in a different way in the possessive construction, such as xhnalwakhmòpongu’ Ixhúja, Ixhúja’s bones.
So, we have two different types of inalienable participles.

Puey, my love, I do not remember a time before I created words. Great-Uncle was with me within a few days of Mamà’s death, and he says that I was giggling and burbling and spilling out streams of nonsense syllables at quite a young age. This leads to all sorts of ontological problems, for on what did I base Babel, surely there must have been some early music, some first code, some intricate emotion by which I could have become the construction of this. Táto says that my first words just had to be emotions. They were interjections, and then later interjections that became sentences. I think it’s a little like the way you compose music, when you were playing the harp yesterday for all the falling in the war, there was indeed nothing but pure thought, just inner emotion, although it cannot quite be quantified into something where one image and one space and one memory affect something else. When I was tiny and my interjections were becoming true words, Great-Uncle says that I tried to teach him Babel many times, and he always refused and tried to bring me back unto worthier persuits such as ballet and flower arangement. I guess from the beginning when I drew my sketches and wrote in my notebooks it was in mine own dream language. And yet now upon the day when from the prison of the Forbidden Gardens was I sprung I could hear that everyone else spoke my language, and I could see in the jumble of circles and curves and triangles that in their own fashion all men also wrote in it. What I had created for mine own pleasure was the pulsebeat of the billion, billion viceroy kingdoms

Perhaps there can be fun in having a language all unto one’s self, but I have never intended for secrecy at all, the very first dreams that I remember having, even back when I was sleeping in my crib were of you, my belvoed, and the dreams were already in Babel. The language is our mythology together, and I have tried to remember that despite all of the horrors we have witnessed in the war, despite the monsters and the quantum dæmons and the fell Dragons that have arisen and tried to ensnare us with their words. Many folk have tried to change Babel but have remained unsuccesssful with it, I think that the Warlord of the Red Moons would have liked to limit words for fun and pleasure and whimsy, I think that sometimes the Tánin want to cleanse language of illogical habits. It is interesting the beings who cannot speak a falsehood, such as the Dragons and the Immortals themselves have tried to use silence, and yet all have failed. Babel has conquered them all, and the pleasure of language lives on.

The Complete Grammar and Lexicon of Babel as well as Puey and the Princess are the same project for me, they were blent and intertwone intermingled twingled and married, the words and the story all born in the same alchemy of creation, the same art. No sooner do words and cases come unto me and nations, races, histories come into existance. No sooner do I think about the warriors of Jaràqtu than I think of words for impaling spears and miec māccuahuitl and swords, I think of the words that Qhíng and Qlùfhem would say, I think of maxims of the Kháfha, I think of the names of pirates. Langauge is the feast, the taste, it is a bouquette of flavors.

Neither Mother nor Father quite understand what I’m doing. I think Puey’s parents just tolerate my creative impulses with parental politeness. I’ve had a difficult enough time trying to make Fhermáta understand what I’m doing, let alone Siêthiyal. At least Karuláta helps me about, when she’s not scribbling in my notebooks and demanding that she be given a new part. Language is an entire world of eloquence and rainbows, intricate and beautiful and yet although made out of communication difficult to explain its beauty unto others, strange and whimsical and not a little crazy at the same time. In creating Babel I have had to create not just the skeletons of language, morphology and syntax and phonology, but I have had to create history and mathmatics and customs at the same time, or at least create the foundation by which we Real People must express ourselves. The Dreamtime is Glossopoeia, it is pebble by pebble and sand and stone and tree one by one spreading outwards and becoming field and stead and farm, the words sprawling upwards and twisting into thickets, forests, floating cities, clockwork trains, and Giants roaming at the edges of the worlds. And one’s eyen open, and everything becomes part of the music of words.

Perhaps one can say that Puey is the Story and I am the word. That is certainly a worthy and consistent philosophia to have. I think that the story is an extention of the word, but I may be wrong. Puey is the inspiration and the music, so even though he does not speak too much, he certainly has equal authorship of this project, and freely give I this unto him and the children that we shall have. I do not wish for others to think of Babel as a laboratory, though, it is not where I test something, I have intention to try and see with object eyen or yet remove all metaphor, I do not want to make language into mathmatics, or even to try and remove mathmatics from language and make it all art. The language is blood thoug. Alchemy, mathmatics, soceity, they are all the same. Unified. One language, for all the Land of Story. Is it even possible to create an objective language? It is possible for there to be a single language which is best for all men. What do I men by best It all msut work together. Harmony, system, honor. And yet there cannot be complete chaos. There cannot be an infinite number or words, just a set of rules whichby one can create an infinite number of words. Language cannot be complete. Can it be perfect? What does perfect mean, in terms of language? Does that even make sense? In one way I consider Babel to be perfect because it is the means of communication which we use, it is certainly utilitarian, and I find it beautiful, and it is an ample means to express my love to Puey.

It is possible to evaluate language? Can one judge Babel by some merits? Deficiencies? I am just thinking as I write here. Can one find a test? There are few enough interested in grammar, and I’ve taken issure with traditional grammarians because they tend to ignore datoids they just don’t like, and they don’t realise that the irregularities in Babel are quite useful in certain construction. But then again Babel does have an intention, it is to express my love for my Puey. How does Babel fair, then?

This may be controversial. But unto whom? Just to me? Am I sensitive? Grandfather Pátifhar says that I’m too sensitive, that I don’t receive criticism well. That’s untrue, I’ve been criticised all my life. I was after all imprisoned for my entire life because of my Father, I was forbidden love and music.

How æsthetically pleasing is Babel? Very much so. The vowels are all fluent, the musical tone is fun, and even the harsher consonents such as Q and Qh and Tlh and X all have their place, the Qhíng and Aûm love them, and they keep the languange from being too floral and lax, Babel is the language of both brave warriors and beautiful princesses. Is it easy to learn? I’ve only tempted to teach two persons, but with the war I have not had too much time to get my beloved Puey and Ixhúja to speak. What about the voices, the cases, volitionality and telicity? I don’t think they are too difficult. At least the language is mellifluous, even if it does have quite a number of affixes. I think that the writing systems tend to emphasise the general curvy wheely triangular æsthetic of the cultures of the Dreamtime.

Language is a spectrum, a rainbow

Can langauge be neutral? Can language have a goal? Many goals? Can langauge be normal? We only have Language and even Gibberish is a form of Babel. It’s all song and description. A little quirky and whimsical, I suppose. I do like the absolutive case even though we don’t get to see it. And what’s fun is that langauge can be used for all purposes, the scholars of Khrumaîna, high priests, slaves, and children all speak the same tounge.
