Arsi Nami

Arsi Nami is a term referring to a constructed language (conlang) developed within the speculative evolution project, the Snaiad setting, created by artist and writer C.M. Kosemen. It serves as the primary language spoken by the sapient descendants of flightless birds known as the "Snaiad theropods" inhabiting the alien world of Snaiad.

The language is notable for its highly agglutinative nature, complex phonology, and the way its structure reflects the unique anatomy and evolutionary history of its speakers. It incorporates features supposedly shaped by the Snaiad theropods' vocal organs, sensory perceptions, and social structures. Detailed linguistic information, including morphemes, grammatical rules, and vocabulary, is outlined within the Snaiad project documentation. The language aims for a degree of internal consistency and plausibility within the fictional evolutionary context. It is designed to sound alien and challenging to human ears, reflecting the vast evolutionary gulf between humans and the Snaiad theropods.
