¡Feliciă Llimbaziuă!

[Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial, UrGP]

On this day 39 years ago, King Ben created our national language, the Talossan language.
À'ceastă ziuă ja 39 års, Regeu Ben creava ár glheþ naziunal, el glheþ Talossan.
A c'dayeu pri 39 yeareux, Kingeu Ben haveu facescu l'lingeu naçãol noastra, l'lingeu d'Talossa.

Therefore I, the newly appointed benevolent dictator of SIGN, thought it was fitting to officially promulgate a new Provisional Orthography for use in Government work and bigger projects that would benefit from a common standard. Note that this standard is to be replaced by something more permanent and less dictator-y in the future, after SIGN has officially formed and my benevolent dictatorship ends.

I'd also like to announce that we are currently working on a Talossan translation of New Witt (for an especially immersive Ladintsch experience), and there are plans to update talossan.com and L'Översteir as they haven't been properly updated since, what, 2012? Both of them have been tremendously helpful tools for new learners in the past, in fact I learnt Talossan by reading through the grammar pages and experimenting with L'Översteir, so it'd be unfortunate if future new learners were to be confronted by outdated and sometimes flat out wrong info on our noble tongue.

I think it's safe to say that the era of lethargy is slowly but surely coming to an end. Stay tuned.

I wish everyone a happy Llimbaziuă!
¡Cheréu 'n feliciă Llimbaziuă à thoct!
Lleu wisheu 'n happyeu Dayeu d'l'Lingeu a alleux!

(And yes, the text in italics is written in the earliest attested form of Talossan. We've truly come a long way since 1980...)

Per aceasta raziun, penseveu, com'el noveu zirecteir benignheu dal SIGN, qe c'estadra cüfneval à zifamarh uficialmint üna Speliçaziun Propría per útzil in dels praxeis par el Governmaintsch es dels proxhects pü grülts qi bunafiçadrent ün standard comun. Notetz q'acest standard serà remplaçat in el fütür par ingencosa q'isch pü permanint es míus dictateiresc, osprei la SIGN se tent formada uficialmint es va dictatür benignheu tent ultima.

Qe povadréu ocs'anonçarh qe noi creatent actüellmint üna glheþinaziun del NovWitt (pr'iensa experiençù specialmint merxhitatíu com'iens ladintsch), es jont plans àd inovarh talossan.com es l'Översteir, parç qe ça tiennent esteschti inovats zespâts, quand, XXXIII? Embù tiennent esteschti utuis tremendmint auschiglhapunts per dels noveux aprendeirs in el paßescu. À fäts, éu tent aprendeveu Talossan par lirarh las páxhinas à gramaica es experimintarh cün l'Översteir, sa c'estadra desploraval schi dels noveux aprendeirs del fütür estadrent cunfruntada par informaziun uninovada es ingentemps simplamint torts över noastra glhimba noval.
