tune VS sca

But if you are working on a conlang, how many words would you need to define that people should memorize to have a rich understanding of the world? If you want to try and break this problem down into smaller pieces that is fine with me. But it seems in my initial attempt at a conlang, you can cover most abstract concepts with about 2,000 words. Then for the common objects on earth (rocks, trees, etc.) or highly specific named entities (star constellations, or atoms/materials for example, or foods or daily objects like kitchen supplies), you can add another 2,000 or so words to the lexicon. I was quite surprised when I listed out every possible tool I could think of, and the list was only about 700 individual words (then you can combine words like "Circular saw" to get more tools). Or for foods, Wikipedia has less than about 1,000 named foods which cover every possible thing you've ever eaten.

Hello, I am working on Tune, a conlang, written in Tone, a conscript. For a few years I have been collecting words and concepts in order to get at the basic building blocks of knowledge. I put many words here, but the list is incomplete, unsorted, and with many words which are derivatives of more base words (like "year" and "yearly" might be included in the list).

What are all possible swear words used in natural languages (and even in conlangs)? Not necessarily what the exact swear word is (as maybe that's too intense of a list lol), but what are the general categories of swear words or topics of things made into swear words in natlangs around the world, or conlangs. I would like to make the Tune conlang support swear words and would like to know generally how far reaching they can becoming (i.e. what categories throughout history and world-building have come about in terms of swear words).

I have a conlang (Tune) I am working on, and am in the process on how I want to handle "compound words". I am inspired by how English uses Greek/Latin/etc. to come up with compound terms (in biology, chemistry, medicine, etc.) and would like to do the same. However, because of the current word structure in Tune, most words are on average 2-4 syllables. Then combining them you would get to really long words, which, as one mentioned, is like scriptio continua and seems hard to read, like saloyowizitxihawinanoyotxa. That is really more like saloyo zitxiha nanoyotxa, or even saloyo zitxiha nano yotxa, since nano means "not".

I am working on Tune, a conlang which has the basic concepts as 1 syllable "word bases", and the rest as 2-syllable bases, each starting and ending with a consonant. The rough current guide is here. You convert the base to nouns/verbs/modifiers by adding a/i/o respectively, so that makes the base words 2 or 3 syllables to start!

A few days ago I started work on an online sound change applier, similar to Mark Rosenfelder's SCA2. The syntax is slightly different, which allows you to write some rules more compactly or clearly, but it is feature-rich enough to be a full replacement for SCA2. Thorough documentation is available by pressing the "Help" button, and all the code is open-source and is available on GitHub under the GNU GPLv3 license. I will add more features as people request them or as I get new ideas.
