v0.1.0
Hello, everyone! I am glad to announce that the Enţrirç v0.1.0 just released. 🎉
As you can see in its Github repository, it is described as "an utility set for New Ithkuil". It aims to be an application that includes various common functions about New Ithkuil to make it easier to learn this language.
In this first version of Enţrirç, you can search the roots using this app. But before searching, you need to import the lexicon first. There are 2 ways for you to import: fetch the data from internet, and import the data from local files. The first one sounds better because it's more convenient, however, it is not support in this version 😥 (Remember, it's just v0.1.0, not v1.0.0). So you can only import the lexicon from local files for now.
"But where can we get the lexicon", someone may ask, and that's what I am going to talk about. Besides the Enţrirç, I have another project lexicon-json. It provides the lexicon of New Ithkuil in json format based on the http://ithkuil.net/newithkuil_lexicon.pdf. There are 7 chapters in this book, and I just finished 3/7 of it. I know it is impossible or may take a long time to complete this project only by myself. So if you are available, you could help me with this project following the guideline. BTW if you just want to get the lexicon.json, don't worry, I will upload it along with the .apk files on our discord server soon.
After the v0.1.0, here are my next goals, but with no guarantee that these objectives will be achieved in the next version:
- New Ithkuil Writing System Image Generator, like what is discussed in this post.
- Import the lexicon from internet automatically.
- Word Construction, like this one.
- Affixes Search Support.
