- zapzupnz 8y agoI'm fascinated by the concept of a verbless language, but don't want to go to the effort of learning a conlang to experience it. But taking English and removing the verbs, substituting similar structures as in Kelen, wouldn't be all that instructive; I'd spend more time aghast at how seemingly incomprehensible the English is rather than the effect of the change to the language. Difficult one. (That said, if someone did decide to make some sort of Kelenglish, I'd love to see it thrown into this framework!)
