I just realised how dorky one of my hobbies is...

[Legend]

Just watched a Frozen music video sung in a fake language, and I LIKED IT!

I'm a conlanger, a person who makes new languages just for the fun of it. These languages are as legit as can be, with the most famous conlang being Esperanto. It's spoken by millions of people.

It's fun for creators to translate things into their conlangs.

Here's Minecraft with a mod that changes the language to a conlang.



And here's a bunch of movie posters that have been photoshopped with conlangs in them.

It only just hit me how dorky this hobby is...

Have a dorky hobby yourself?

[the-pi-guy]

I like made up languages, and have kicked around the idea of making one up myself.  Same with making up history.  

Let's see dorky hobbies:
-Getting really (like really really really really) excited over VR
-Collecting learning books
-Eventually reading said learning books
-Video games sales (I'm kind of out of this one.  I stopped caring.)
-Math


Other things.
