    It's funny when the occasional profane name comes up.

    I don't remember exactly, but I think I basically took every single Protoss name in existence and divided it into three parts/syllables:
    Al-dar-is
    Tass-a-dar
    Art-an-is
    Ul-re-zaj

    Either the first or the second part can be replaced with any vowel (but not both). There are over 30000 possible names (of which I bet only a few sound good).

    En taro Tassadar, my friends!

    As a life-long conlanger I'm starting to work in a project to create an unofficial Protoss language. Taking into account all the canon, phrases and words and trying to work out the best structure possible to give them sense.

    Some of the phrases appearing will be old time favorites: "En taro Tassadar", "Adun toridas!", and even some acknowledgements from Protoss units: "Ishk nu?", "Kau shu!", "Ji haus!" and many more still in development.

    The blog's address will be
    http://khalani-language.blogspot.com/

    This, of course, is not trying to be the "only" or even the "real" Protoss language, just a project to create what could be a consistent and fully formed Khalani for the Protoss and for all the Protoss' fans. I hope you all enjoy it.

    Any questions, comments and so on will greatly appreciated in the blog

    Taro ruulas!

    Obvious thread necromancy. Closed.

    Although you should check to see if a topic already exists before making a new one, if it's very old, it's best to make a new thread.
