Prolangs/Recap

For many of the episodes, important context is given by the presence of a character, so check the characters subpage if you're not already familiar with the conlang in question.

Main Series
These are 'canon' and are their title is always preceded in posts on the subreddit with 'Prolangs:'.


 * 1) 2020-11-10, Blueberries: Esperanto and toki pona share some confusion over what to call some fruit from the grocery store.
 * 2) 2020-11-10, Everything is fine: Volapük doodles on toki pona's face during a nap so as to turn that smile upside down, so to speak.
 * 3) 2020-11-11, The wug test: Esperanto, toki pona, Ithkuil, and Solresol all take the famous Wug test, only for Solresol to discover that it's hard to name something with only musical notes, in plural or otherwise.
 * 4) 2020-11-13, Clown tricks: Volapük complains about excessive verb forms, but Ithkuil shows that claim up by pulling an improbably long string of grammatical modifiers out of her mouth like handkerchiefs tied together (referring to Ithkuil's inventor John Quijada's love of clowns).
 * 5) 2020-11-14, The perfect grammar: Lojban and Esperanto recreate the well-memed diner scene from Breaking Bad -- Lojban explains how the language's sentence structure works, and it takes a little while for Esperanto, distracted by a menu, to realise that Lojban's jargon-filled explanation makes no goddamn sense [until you get used to it anyway].
 * 6) 2020-11-17, Society: Both Vötgil and Solresol show off their use of colour in their respective scripts; for Solresol, the seven colours of the Newtonian rainbow (representing the seven notes or tones or essential sounds of the language), and for Vötgil the four shades of grey that can be used in conjunction to compactly refer to a letter. However, while Solresol's use of colour is lauded by the general public as being creative and accessible, Vötgil's is denigrated as being 'stinky'. Also he's sitting in an alley for some reason. Kay(f)Bop(t), channeling The Joker, bemourns this hypocritical state of affairs.
 * 7) 2020-11-19, Off the Pu: Ithkuil is hanging out with Esperanto, drinking what is presumably espresso based on the size of the cup, when toki pona (who is normally very short) walks up on enormous stilts made of words created by tokiponists but not found in the official dictionary, Pu; Esperanto explains that is what has happened to Ithkuil, and it seems the new elevation (and expressiveness) has given toki pona an attitude, because he swears at them.
 * 8) 2020-11-21, Polar opposites: toki pona, Ithkuil, and Kay(f)Bop(t) are all at a meeting of the "being really specific" club, as evidenced by a hanging banner. However, Ithkuil and toki pona are at one end of the table and Kay(f)Bop(t) is at the other, due to the differences in how the various languages enable or require their speakers to be really specific (such as needing to know the precise mood of a verb, or needing to know by what method the subject of a sentence will ultimately die [really!]).
 * 9) 2020-11-24, Sexism resigned: Esperanto and Volapük observe Vötgil skateboarding. He tells them that he's eliminated pronouns since the two auxlangs abused them, which he demonstrates by throwing a paper labelled '3PP' (third-person pronoun, basically any personal pronoun besides the declensions/plurals of 'I' and 'you') into the trash and simultaneously dabbing. He then proceeds to skateboard off a cliff, to Volapük's bemusement, while shouting that unlike the other auxlangs he at least has a dedicated word for the English language.
 * 10) 2020-11-27, That one thing: Esperanto, Lojban, and toki pona clink their beverages together (a beer, motor oil, and boxed apple juice respectively) to celebrate their shared use of the word 'mi' (or in Lojban's case, '.i mi' due to the way Lojban sentences work).
 * 11) 2020-11-29, Just Cherokee things: Esperanto has through some strange chain of events wandered into a school, but is unsure how. Esperanto then meets Poliespo, who proudly proclaims Cherokee heritage and sets about smashing the furniture with a baseball bat; Esperanto is horrified.
 * 12) 2020-12-01, Decisions: Ygyde flirts with Lojban by bragging that they are 'like Linux'; ZESE walks up and asserts that they are actually a programming language wearing a conlang's skin. Lojban looks back and forth at the two contenders, but if we are to presume they like robots like themselves, Ygyde's chances are not looking good
 * 13) 2020-12-01, Tis' the season: toki pona and Kēlen are wearing Santa hats. Kēlen, noting the festive season, invites toki pona to share wishes for Christmas presents; however, in attempting to do so toki pona dares to use a verb in the presence of Kēlen, so he is quickly shushed.
 * 14) 2020-12-03, Really not specifying: Esperanto, Volapük, and Poliespo each share their unique approaches to [grammatical] gender.
 * 15) 2020-12-05, Hilarious joke: Ygyde and ZESE are hanging out, apparently with no hard feelings from before; Ygyde sits on top of ZESE's cubical...hat...helmet...thing. She apparently thinks of a pun involving Zese's name that amused her, because she snickers and starts to tell it, but it seems ZESE has heard it before and is not amused because he leans forward so that she falls off his head.
 * 16) 2020-12-06, Skywatching: aUI and Esperanto are stargazing, aUI with binoculars and Esperanto naked-eye. Esperanto remarks on the beauty of the night sky, and aUI concurs, especially highlighting a particular celestial body that aUI refers to by a bizarre (but supposedly 'universally communicable') name.

Side stories and art
These are not 'canon' or not part of the main storyline, or are simply pieces of art or memes.


 * 1) 2020-11-17, epic releteble toki bone moment: A Stylistic Suck episode (judging by the fact the strip is introduced as being part of 'prospeech' rather than Prolangs, and is poorly rendered and not in colour). Esperanto espresso tells toki pona toki bone to do something, but does not sufficiently specify, so t.b. does the wrong thing.
