Just like any other language, many conlangs come with their own script—a way to write them down. Not every language needs a writing system, and most don’t create their own original script, so don’t feel like you have to take this step. However, if you do want to write using your conlang, there’s a few tips we can share that might help you get started.

There’s plenty more to discuss about scripts beyond what we had time for here, so if you’re interested to learn more, check out the links to other episodes of Story Tips below. Or, if you’re already well-versed in conlanging, drop a comment telling us some tips of your own!

Here’s a short extract of our world-class materials banks for the world-famous Legal Darfting Basics: Three Key Skills workshops designed by Chris Jensen, LL.M and published by LexisNexis:

1. Correct usage

“Usage” means punctuation, grammar, and vocabulary. Here are 25 common usage errors to look for in your writing.

1.1 Punctuation: Common errors

1.1.1 Usage Error 1: Commas and semicolons in complex/compound sentences

Incorrect: The biggest firms missed out on the revolution which was led by small- and medium-sized independent firms then they tried to get in but it was already too late.

Correct: The biggest firms missed out on the revolution, which was led by small- and medium-sized independent firms; then they tried to get in, but it was already too late.

1.1.2 Usage Error 2: Commas and semicolons for complex lists

Use commas and semicolons for clarity if you have a complex list – especially a list within a list. Separate items in the big list with semicolons and items in the small list with commas.

Original: …in particular information relating to this Agreement and its subject matter, the businesses or financials of the Principal and its affiliates, the Customer, buyers and other contractors of the Principal as well as information relating to prices, sales, developments and know-how of the Principal.
Revision: …in particular information relating to this Agreement and its subject matter; the businesses or financials of the Principal and its affiliates, the customer, buyers and other contractors of the Principal; and information relating to prices, sales, developments, or know-how of the Principal.

2.1.3 Usage Error 3: Commas with restrictive and non-restrictive clauses
Don’t use commas if the information in relative clause modifying the noun (i.e., beginning with “who,” “that,” “which,” “whose,” etc.) is key information (called “restrictive” information). Do use commas if it’s just extra information (“non-restrictive”).

Non-restrictive: The Defendant ,who has expressed remorse, is well on his way to rehabilitation. (This means we know who the Defendant is, so “who has expressed remorse” is just extra information.)

Restrictive: A defendant who has expressed remorse is well on his way to rehabilitation. (This refers to any defendant who has expressed remorse – “the defendant who has expressed remorse” is the subject.)

Incorrect: Anti-competitive agreements are agreements between competitors, which have as their object or effect the restriction of competition.
Correct: Anti-competitive agreements are agreements between competitors that have as their object or effect the restriction of competition.

Incorrect: Flexibility is one of the keywords of the new Hungarian Labor Code which entered into force on 1 July 2012.
Correct: Flexibility is one of the keywords of the new Hungarian Labor Code, which entered into force on 1 July 2012.

Tip: If removing the information would create confusion about the subject = restrictive = no commas.

Writing on the Wall Idiom Meaning:

Writing on the wall is a warning or sign that something unpleasant or unfortunate is going to happen. Variations are ‘Handwriting on the wall’ and ‘The writing is on the wall’

Examples Of Use:
“He saw the writing on the wall and left the company for a new job before he and many others were laid off.”

“Look,” said William, “the writing is on the wall. Nobody is going to lend us any money. We’ll have to come up with it some other way.”

Origin of Idiom:
This idiom comes from the Biblical story of Belshazzar’s feast, Daniel 5:5-31, in which, in the presence of the king, a disembodied hand appears and writes on the palace wall. Only Daniel could interpret the writing.

Daniel told the king that he had brought the wrath of the Lord on himself by not learning from his father’s mistakes and humbling himself. This had resulted in the hand writing the message, which said:

Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.

Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom and finished it. Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. Upharsin; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.”

The king proclaimed Daniel the third ruler of the kingdom and was that night slain. He had “seen the writing on the wall.”

#idiomsonline

English idioms are types of English sayings, expressions, or phrases. However, an idiom is different from other sayings or expressions. It is a phrase that behaves more like a word. The meaning of an idiom is not always easy to tell based on the words used. They are groups of words that mean something different than they appear to mean. These videos from Idioms.Online will help you understand the meanings of English and American idioms, learn how to use them with examples in sentences, and, when possible, will even explain the origin of these enigmatic expressions.
