Arcane Linguist

Chapter 32 Why Are You Strange?
Orvisto Mage Tower, 4th floor, a corner of the south corridor, inside Roland's residence.

Roland, who used the Scholar's Happiness Stick again, let out a long sigh, and withdrew from the state of mental excitement similar to flow, and immediately felt faint hunger.

That was the brain warning him to replenish his energy.

"It's a mistake. It seems that even if there are scholars who are happy, they still have to combine work and rest."

Good self-discipline is a necessary condition for becoming an excellent mage, so he simply took a sip of the magic brew given by his teacher and chatted online.

Ding, rich and generous sent you a new email...

"Little guy, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. Forget it, sister, I will be very satisfied with you. Others have never had a chance..."

Along with the email came a high-resolution photo.

A woman who lifted her clothes revealed the vest line.

Goo!Cough...cough cough...

The magic brew in his mouth almost spewed out, Roland swallowed quickly, and then coughed.

God promises, it was just flirting before...

I didn't expect this person to be able to get along with her. She really posted beautiful photos!

In all fairness, the vest line is not obvious, it is not of the youthful and fit school.

But its plump and mature beauty, its snow-white skin reveals a classical charm like a world-famous painting under the background of magic lights, which is even more charming.

This gives the photos a bit of an oil painting feel.

"Taling, download and save for me!"

Although Roland has read countless pictures on the Internet, it is rare to see this kind of mature sister full of aristocratic charm.

After some manipulations, he got an inch and said, "Can I..."

"It's not that easy, unless... you are promoted to a full-time mage and come to my side!"

Alright, see you Tuqiongdagger!
Roland had already vaguely felt that this sister teased him with ulterior motives, and it was as expected.

"Talk about it later, talk about it later."

He hurriedly made a haha ​​to fool the past.

He didn't want a banner to be hung on the top of Master Orvisto's tower one day.

Someone in Benta flirted online and got squashed.

After going offline, Roland went to the teaching area on the seventh floor to visit the library as usual.

In fact, on this floor, there are some mages above the middle level giving lectures.

But they are not recording courses, or answering some professional questions from different mage towers, and answering them for others.

There is no step-by-step teaching here, and it is impossible for the mages in the tower to repeat the basic things over and over again, which is a waste of time and energy.

Therefore, instead of listening, he continued to study by himself to consolidate his foundation.

Only at a fixed time every week, when a certain lecturer happens to give a class in ancient elf language, will I go to listen to it.

At noon, after going back to eat on his own, Roland rested for a while and came to the 8003 laboratory again.

After saying hello to the seniors who were already busy here, he walked into the room and found that the servant had already delivered today's newspaper to the laboratory, so he sat down, took the top arcane newsletter and read it .

In the end, I unexpectedly discovered that I actually made the headlines.

"Invited commentator Oxea article."

"Hello everyone, I am Oxea, a special commentator of the Arcane Newsletter, and today we are going to read this new article titled "A New Type of Practical Writing——Study on Oracle Bone Inscriptions".

I believe that friends who follow the news of the arcane world have already understood that the source of this paper is a young mage Roland, no, he is not even called a real mage for the time being!

As an amazing trainee mage, he has achieved incredible and amazing results in the field of philology and word formation research. Let us extend our sincere congratulations to him!

This research on Oracle Bone Inscriptions uses an overhead method of simulating the development of real history and culture, and from the perspective of ancient ancestors, it completely and systematically expounds the origin, gestation, development, and maturity of a new type of writing system.

It is conceived with astonishing genius, abstracts and simplifies the two-dimensional picture, and uses it as a root. Regardless of characters, phrases, sentences, and content words or function words, monosyllabic words almost occupy the core position of commonly used words.

Its tense, part of speech, singular and plural, and feminine and masculine changes are quite different from many languages ​​we are familiar with. It presents typical analytic language features, and its word formation rules are unique and charming.

What is particularly commendable is that the efficiency of carrying information in this square character is extremely high, and the information density, recognition efficiency and recognition speed are all rare among the characters born over the years.

however……

I have to mention here however!
After reading this paper carefully, I found that it also has some obvious flaws.

First of all, the grammar of the writing system constructed by it is chaotic, and some inexplicable rules adopted for the sake of innovation have created confusion in part of speech, person, and tense, and the expression is more common in abstraction, which is not so rigorous and credible.

In other words, this is a language without logic and grammar. How should I put it, it is indeed the masterpiece of an apprentice mage and the imagination of a gifted child?

Secondly, the author was too sloppy in writing the thesis and failed to fully consider various factors, such as some proper nouns in the field of magic and the corresponding magical structure rules.

This is really surprising in today's era of magic nets. The author seems to have fallen into a misunderstanding. He simulated for the sake of simulating the ancient ancestors, without considering the laws of magic structure. This will inevitably make the prospect of magic of this kind of text worrying .

In addition, the conditions necessary for the magic net to cast spells such as information coding are missing.

I and several friends who were lucky enough to see it first agreed that this kind of square characters is difficult to compare with the alphabetic characters we often use in terms of information encoding.

Do we still need to spend thousands of unique runes to encode them one by one and input them into the magic net?Do we have to pre-compile tens of thousands of words and phrases when we use scribing to transcribe related texts?

This low-level design logic based on characters exposes the author's messy way of thinking, mixed sounds, shapes, and meanings, resulting in polysemous words, synonyms, and confusion of synonyms, which will become a major flaw when casting spells...

Nevertheless, this thesis still has a certain arcane significance, it provides a new perspective to look at the problem, and provides a reference for subsequent text research, perhaps with its promotion, we will gradually invent some Ideographic characters gradually simplified from pictographs.

We should look at its advantages and disadvantages objectively and fairly, and at the same time hope that the author, as a trainee mage, can concentrate on learning and not rush for quick success..."

Seeing this, Roland couldn't help but spit.

"Who is this? Write a comment, why are you still making a mess?"

　This chapter chooses to complete such a commentator's article of about 1000 words, instead of a few simple sentences, followed by an ellipsis.

　　Considering the current reader habits, some people may find it too long and don't like to read it, so it will become embarrassing and thankless.

　　For this reason, I deliberately added some sugar to the first half of the chapter, so that the whole will not be boring, and the content of the comment itself should be as meaningful as possible.

　　Some people may think this chapter is very good, and some people may think it is not good. You may wish to give some feedback, so that I can refer to it.

　　By the way, ask for a wave of votes and rewards.
