As tradition dictates, every tenth day at ConWorkShop, the theme of the day is No theme!. And as I promised ten days ago, I would be doing nihilism. I chose not to dress all in black, or to put on gothy makeup or anything, but I did coin the word for 'nihilism'. It's a straightforward… Continue reading Lexember 20 (2023) →

Here's some food for thought. Today's theme from ConWorkShop is vegetables and berries. Time to root around in the fertile soil of your imagination, hoping that your diligent effort will bear fruit in good time. Or if that's too much work, you can just vegetate. Whichever way you choose, water and sunlight in appropriate measure… Continue reading Lexember 19 (2023) →

I met a traveller from an antique land, who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert... And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is ConWorkShop, King of Kings; look on my works, ye mighty, and today's theme is things associated with ancient cultures and civilisations. So what was… Continue reading Lexember 18 (2023) →

Arms and the woman I sing, who, forced by fate and Lexember's unrelenting hate, expelled and exiled, left the ConWorkShop shore. Long labours, both sea and land, she bore, taking up today's theme of poetry, poems and songs. siki nanu tosapañi yakave: sikoti sakimu senota hopokaseva hii teñosunera [senota] to tosi kunusamu ñamakahuvo:this.NOM familiar refrain.NOM… Continue reading Lexember 17 (2023) →

Stone the crows, mate! Today's bonzer theme from ConWorkShop is things found in Australia. It's fair dinkum, so won't you come waltzing Matilda with me as we look for a billabong of words. Now there are a good many things found in Australia, many of which can also be found elsewhere, as any Bruce or… Continue reading Lexember 16 (2023) →

This is strictly for the birds! Today's theme from ConWorkShop is birds, bats and other flying creatures. Rireinutire already has a few words for various species of Rireinu flying creatures that more or less resemble some Earth animals, so they can be called, say, Rireinu eagle, or Rireinu raven. to musa to ñeta to uhu… Continue reading Lexember 15 (2023) →

Oh, this is so embarrassing. Today's theme from ConWorkShop is shame and embarrassment. yumakave rohonopo yakave· huno ruñomu ehausura ehañipa suñeti opañukiri:Human-woman.NOM shame-less be-PRS-HSY | ones.own body-ACC wrap-cloth-INE wrap-PPP-ESS bold-ADVZ stroll-GER ||Humans have no shame, brazenly going about with their bodies all wrapped in clothes.rohonoporu /ˈɹohoˌnopoɹu/ n.

Don't tell Mama! Now ConWorkShop are fomenting disharmony in families, because today's theme is words that would make your parents disappointed if you added them. In Rireinutire, profanity is mainly based on scatology and menstruation, and I already have a reasonably large collection of words for poo, pee, and period. So then, what would be… Continue reading Lexember 13 (2023) →

Here's something for you to really bite your teeth into: today's ConWorkShop theme is things that might be in your mouth. However, the problem for me is that Rireinutire already has many, many words for things that might be in your mouth, whether Rireinukave anatomy (which is on this issue similar enough with Human anatomy)… Continue reading Lexember 12 (2023) →

It could be said that ConWorkShop is well grounded, because today's theme is geography, geology and all things earthly. So I went digging in an assortment of splendidly geographical landforms and came up with a strange lumpy rock. Gee, would you write an ode to a strange lumpy rock? Maybe, if it was a geode.… Continue reading Lexember 11 (2023) →
