How do you chain multiple fish / sentences ?

we just invented an entirely new way to Rickroll

Could you also explain how to use the little fishes adjacent to the big fishes? Thank you so much for the tutorial btw, I absolutely love this language

This is really cool, inspired me for my own language stuff for my world project! TOO GOOD

Too good 🙏fr

This would add so much color and depth to a video game where you could see the writing move. I hope you get to make your own story around this language or meet an awesome partner who can do it with you.

This is actually beautiful!

I'm currently crafting a language, and it is HARD. Mine is nowhere near this pretty or detailed. It's barely any different from English in structure. I tip my hat to you and your creativity.

I want to imagine how this language was created in-universe. I can imagine some young noble in a freshly developing province looking into his koi pond and thinking to himself how beautiful the koi are, before coming to the conclusion that they are so perfect that surely they’re the means that deities use to communicate, so he began to passionately study the movement of the koi and rippling of the water, sharing his concepts with friends or wandering academics, some of whom would catch the idea and spread it across the province until it became a new dialect that was used to establish independence from the main nation (pick your poison as to the reason why they established independence)

How do i find out what a english word is in tsevhu?? :D

it makes sense that this only a ceremonial script. because making morecomplicated sentences would get messy quicly. And from all the ripples in front of the fish, I can't tell which ones are supposed to be read in whick order.

just wrote my first sentence and its an extremely simple sentence but its already so pretty tsevhu is just beautiful

Very cool and very pretty! Really wish to get more into it however i don't think i'm smart enough to understand some things given in the dictionary - stuff makes my head spin, lol. Kinda hope you'll make more videos covering this it's very interesting <3

am i allowed to use this language in comics and art? its so pretty but I don't wanna infringe on your ideas..

Would be very hard to decrypt without knowing the ripple structure! I wonder what the thumbnail says?

I recently wrote a song for my girlfriend, and I had the idea of transcribing it into tsevhu so I can “show” the song to her before actually performing it

Can you make a video about how to write in tsevhu shorthand? I love this language so much

The only language where you actually need to know grammar terms

This is so beautiful. I love it so much!

Do you do comissions or corrections of Tsevhu?

Has anyone read the Uplift series where they uplifted Dolphins to full sapience? I think their writing would be like this. It's so beautiful. I could see poems written on quilts of deep blue backgrounds with orange koi and white embroidered Koiwriting on top.

Thabk you so much for this video. Ive been trying translate some poems that i think suit this language. Struggling to wrap my head around it, bit ill get there! This is a beautiful thing youve mafe for the world!

I do not understand shit, but this is such a great video

I would love to see a children's book or coloring book drawn/written out with this language.

I have no idea how any of this works but this person has me entirely captivated.

To make a koiwrit, does it have to be an actual s-v-o sentence or can it be a phrase or list? How can lists be incorporated? Also, for the writing the ripples, could there a be a stroke order to make it easier to 'recognize', kinda like how you write 'e' you start with the line then the curve, or 's' starting from the top to bottom, or literally any language that adapts or uses chinese characters.

Hay una opción para conectar ideas atravez de nodos, algo similiar a un mapa conceptual y esto es muy similar a eelo, me encanta!

Your voice is really nice 😅

Can you do a tutorial on shorthand?

I'm currently trying to translate "Sleep only circles my mind." But I can't find only TvT. Truly beautiful language!

Extremely useless, but looks cool, guess that what’s count now, in a world of ignorant mediocrity.

It would be awesome if you posted complete tutorials for people to actually learn how to speak Tsevhu and write the formal and informal forms! I know I'd be very interested in that!!

This is so weird and interesting to me! I hope that when all of current humanity civilizations cease to exist, someone from the new era finds this and interprets it as our language and theorize abt it lol

I re learned what prepositions are, thank you.

I might adapt koiwrit to korean just for fun to make some artwork

I have a quick question. I am trying to translate the sentence “the man sits and finds inner happiness.” For “the man sits” I have the man ripple in the center of the koi, and sit at the tail. Where would I put the next part? Right now I have happiness at the oblique spot with the “find” verb and “within” adjective around it. Is that correct, or should I put that part on a small fish? Plz help, thanks

Conlangs are like magic to me, it's insane to me that one person can just... Make a language. Maybe it's less magic and more science once you know more about languages, but to me it still appears like magic! And I can't imagine the knowledge and effort that goes into creating magic...

Ima learn this and make it a tatoo sometime in the future

Bi et this is really hard to read upside down

Hmm. I'm curious why ripples go from inside to out instead of outside to in? When water ripples, don't the first rings (and therefore syllables) stretch outwards, and the latter syllables would be in the center? Is it because it's easier to write in a growing spiral?

YOU MADE THIS UP!?!? THAT'S INSANE!!

this is making me want to make poem out of this and give it to my muse. it also helps me apply the things i am learning in my college courses as a linguistics student.

I have no idea about any of this and understand maybe a quarter of the explanations - but it sounds so cool and looks great! To imagine there’s a sentence „hidden“ in that beautiful drawing is magical!

Yo, I was introduced to koiwriting by a KZfaq Short that wasn't you -- but I assumed it was from the way it was phrased? I'm glad I came to find the original and I hope you go as viral as that KZfaq short because YOU deserve the credit

this is so cool, and i really wanna try to write something in koiwrit! what does it mean when there are two fish though, is it two sentences merged together? if it is, wouldn't it be difficult to tell what belongs to what?

Niiice!

This video was truly so lovely. I remember seeing the posts about it on /r/conlangs but even then I didn't comprehend just how beautifully detailed this language and system is. Thank you for a wonderful video! I truly hope you'll make more.

Oh Oh no New hyperfixation unlocked

I came across tsevhu a few months back. Its really awesome.

This is so mesmerizing
