Podcasts about language invention

This week on the inimitable Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt showcase their survival skills by going to Germany and then RETURNING from Germany, having played such a very large quantity of games. Our Essen 2024 special is a quickfire spectacular, running through a bunch of the notable games we got our hands on during the show. Many pints of sweet sweat have been pumped into the world in order to bring you this episode of the podcast, so you're morally obliged to at least TRY and enjoy it.

“There are jobs that you could never have imagined – and they’re possible.” David Peterson received a master's degree in Linguistics from UC San Diego in 2005 and he's been creating languages since 2000. He served as a cofounder and original board member of the Language Creation Society, and served as its president from 2011 to 2014. He has worked as a language creator on numerous television shows and films, including HBO's Game of Thrones, Netflix's The Witcher, the CW's The 100, and Disney's Raya and the Last Dragon. In the fall of 2015 he published his nonfiction work The Art of Language Invention with Penguin Books. Jessie Sams got her PhD in Linguistics from the University of Colorado Boulder, and until recently was a professor of linguistics at Stephen F. Austin State University in Texas, where she created a conlanging course and taught students how to construct a language from the ground up. She is now a full-time professional conlanger and works with David Peterson.

Today our guest is David Peterson, who invents languages for a living. He invented Dothraki and Valyrian for a little TV show called Game of Thrones, moved on to Defiance, and from there on to a score of other languages. The list on Wikipedia includes Dominion, The 100, Penny Dreadful, The Shannaara Chronicles, Into the Badlands, The Witcher, and Shadow and Bone. Our conversation goes deep. We explore how language works, where it comes from, how we learn languages, how the gorillas that use sign languages see language differently from us. And we also get to talk Game of Thrones, how he got the job – which is a pretty impressive story, working with actors, how he teaches them to say the words right, and so many more things. This is a fascinating conversation. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

In keeping with the trend of having guests on to talk about things OTHER than their usual, I am THRILLED to have on Episode 3 special guest David J. Peterson, language creator of (among others) the Valyrian and Dothraki languages for HBO's "Game of Thrones." David and I discuss something we were both really excited about, our tastes in MUSIC and the songs that we are most glad exist. Everything from The Carpenters to Oingo Boingo, Stratovarius to Hootie and the Blowfish, Amberian Dawn, Poets of the Fall, and many more are mentioned. Buckle up, and tune in for some great conversation.

This week's episode of Amped Up Radio features David J. Peterson, language creator (conlanger) of the Game of Thrones series (Dothraki & High Valyrian), The 100 (Trigedasleng), Defiance (Kastithanu, L'Irathi, Indojisnen, and Kinuk'aaz), Thor: The Dark World (Shiväisith). David is also the author of The Art of Language Invention and Living Language Dothraki and hosts the LangTime Studio on YouTube, where he and Dr. Jessie Sams work to create conlang projects live. We dive into how David became involved with conlang during his undergraduate years at Berkeley, his contributions to the languages in Game of Thrones and The 100, as well as his upcoming works–Dune and The Witcher, to name a few.QuotesThe language I created for The 100 (Trigedasleng) is supposed to be a futuristic version of English that is influenced by the history, takes place in that show in the present day and 150 years in the future. It’s still English and it was intentionally influenced by English in that every word from it comes from English, but in terms of how meanings have shifted, how the grammar has shifted, how the sound has shifted that part was original–it’s an original revolution of English [6:45 - 7:24] The problem of Valyrian is that it’s the language of a dead culture, and a people and a place that have been destroyed. You certainly see echos of it throughout the books, there are ripples of it everywhere, but we don’t ever actually get to see this is what it was like to be a Valyrian speaker in the Valyrian Freehold at that time. Contrasted with Dothraki, where you see a lot of it–a lot of what the Dothraki people do in the books… I felt much more confident in saying this probably fits with Dothraki culture, this is probably what something the Dothraki would do. There is next to nothing to go on for the Valyrians. [16:10 - 17:04] Follow David J. PetersonTwitter: @dedalvsYouTube: https://bit.ly/langtimestudioWebsite: https://artoflanguageinvention.com/

"Polyglots and language creators...that Venn diagram is almost a circle." In this episode, language creator David Peterson sat down with me to talk about language creation, language ownership, and the joy of it all. No other interview has had such an impact on me, the level of mastery in language creation was completely unclear to me. Every single choice that you're making is an active choice. Nothing in a language has to be that way. Here are just a few of the questions we discussed on this show. If a language is created, why is its grammar not easy? How do Hollywood actors react when they have to deliver dialogue in an invented language? How many languages do you need to speak in order to create a language? (spoiler: I have too many!) After creating a language, do you want the world to learn this new language? And David also explained the phases language creators go through. You create the language...at least you think that's what you're doing You realise you actually had lots of choices and you start making copy-languages You realise you don't need to create your language like another one, you start making the language you actually want If you're fascinated by language invention and created languages after listening to this interview, I recommend David's own book "The Art of Language Invention". (see links below) Thank you to David Peterson (https://www.fluent.show/guests/david) for this episode introduction. Special Guest: David Peterson.

David Petersen is an American linguist and language creator. He has studied over 20 "Earth" languages, and created more than 40 artificial languages for tv and movies, including Dothraki and Valyrian for HBO's hit show Game of Thrones, based on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire..   Additionally, David has created the languages for Thor: The Dark World, Syfy's Defiance, CW's Star-Crossed and The 100, Dominion, Penny Dreadful, The Shannara Chronicles, Warcraft: the Beginning, Doctor Strange, and Emerald City.    He is the author of Living Language Dothraki and The Art of Language Invention, and is the co-founder of the Language Creation Society.   We cover a lot of fascinating topics in this episode including:   • JRR Tolkien's contribution to modern language creation • The workflow of sound development between himself and Hollywood show creators • Winning a language creation contest to land his first job with Game of Thrones • The linguistic rules and framework for creating a "realistic" fake language, and what makes a made-up movie language sound fake • Why language creation is living art that is never finished • Why the languages from Star Wars were all "crappily" done • The process of teaching an actor how to speak a new language  • The Game of Thrones character he thinks speaks the best Valyrian • And so much more!
