Intro to Constructed Languages: Sound Patterns is a seven-week course that dives deep into the phonetics and phonology of language creation, offering students the tools to design the unique sounds and syllable structures of their own fictional languages. Over seven sessions, students will learn to create consonant and vowel inventories, establish phonotactic constraints, and apply phonological processes to develop realistic and natural sound systems. 

This course blends linguistic theory with hands-on application, using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and insights from real-world languages to guide students in building the foundation of their constructed languages.

Each week focuses on a key topic, starting with the basics of sound design and progressing through advanced concepts like syllable constraints and the interaction of sounds in language. 

Students will participate in interactive lectures, guided workshops, and collaborative feedback sessions to refine their work. By the end of the course, they will have a fully developed sound system and a deeper understanding of how phonetics and phonology shape languages, preparing them to continue language creation or explore linguistics further. Lessons are structured to balance creativity with analytical skills in a fun, supportive environment.

Metas de aprendizaje

Students will analyze the phonetic and phonological structures of real-world languages to understand how sounds are organized and function.
Students will design a unique set of consonants and vowels for their constructed language using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).

Orientación para padres
This course does not include any content that is likely to be upsetting or scary to learners. All media content used, such as video clips or slides, is age-appropriate and focuses on materials related to linguistics and language construction. If any adjustments to content are needed based on individual concerns, I am happy to accommodate.
Lista de útiles escolares

Fuentes
The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) Chart (https://www.internationalphoneticassociation.org/IPAcharts/IPA_chart_orig/pdfs/IPA_Kiel_2020_full.pdf) and accompanying tools, including the IPA Keyboard (https://www.internationalphoneticalphabet.org/html-ipa-keyboard-v1/keyboard/) and Interactive IPA Chart (https://www.ipachart.com/), are essential for accurately representing and analyzing the sounds of both human and constructed languages. These resources allow students to explore and document sounds systematically, providing a universal framework to describe phonetic details. The Diphthongs Guide (https://www.yorku.ca/earmstro/ipa/diphthongs.html) further supports this by offering a specialized focus on vowel transitions, enhancing students’ ability to design realistic and nuanced sound systems for their constructed languages. The World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS) (https://wals.info/) is used to introduce students to cross-linguistic variation and typology, offering valuable insights into how sounds, structures, and linguistic features vary across human languages. This resource helps students make informed decisions when creating the phonological systems of their languages. Similarly, Ethnologue (https://www.ethnologue.com/) provides a comprehensive overview of existing languages, their demographics, and sociolinguistic contexts, enabling students to ground their projects in real-world linguistic diversity while drawing inspiration for cultural and societal elements in their constructed languages. Together, these tools foster critical thinking and analytical skills, allowing students to approach language construction with both creativity and linguistic rigor. They also expose students to widely recognized professional tools used in linguistic research, preparing them for future academic and creative pursuits.
