Hi everyone,

College freshman here, wanting to start writing. I enjoy worldbuilding and linguistics.

Welcome to the site! You should get acquainted with @DarkPandemonium - she loves linguistics too. :P I look forward to seeing what you write - does your worldbuilding tend towards fantasy or science fiction?
We're all stories in the end.

I think of you as a fairy with a green dress and a flower crown and stuff.

I think you, @Deanie and I are like the Three Book Nerd Musketeers of YWS.

Thanks, everyone! While my worldbuilding does trend towards a low dark fantasy, I do enjoy sci-fi.

(In all seriousness, it looks like you and I share that passion for worldbuilding, and we have in common the fact that we both focus heavily on dark/low fantasy settings. If you ever want to exchange tips, I'm right here.)

Definitely! I'm working on a setting right now I could use some help on.

That's awesome! My own knowledge of phonology is a bit rudimentary; I did an introductory module to it last year but I haven't studied it much since. I'm more into the syntax of language rather than the sounds, but I find both interesting. :)

I think the best thing about making it into the quote generator is when nobody tells you, so one day you're just scrolling and voila, some phenomenally inane thing that crawled out of your dying synapses and immediately regretted being born the second it made contact with the air has been archived for all time. Or worse, a remark of only average inanity. Never tell me when you've put me in the generator. Pride-tinged regret just doesn't taste the same without the spice of surprise.
