Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the questions we get most often.

Do I need a linguistics background to join?

No. All majors and experience levels are welcome. Curiosity about language is the only prerequisite. Our workshops start from the basics and build up.

What happens at a typical meeting?

Weekly workshops, critique circles for works-in-progress, and collaborative work on our club conlang, tlag. Bring a notebook or laptop if you want to work hands-on; otherwise just come to listen and ask questions.
