Selfize
Category: Phenomenon Theory
The phenomena that conlangers’ taste or sense of value are reflected to their conlangs or conworlds. Selfize can occur in all conlangs except REA, especially in ART. The creators can take advantage in spreading their conlangs if their taste or sense of value are favored by the majority and vice versa.
In Kaldia, sailor uniforms are worn by school girls and the culture was made by Seren’s taste. There’s only a quite small chance that Kaldia, another world, uses sailor suits as a uniform like Japanese.
The infix of Esperanto –in- reflects Zamenhof’s sense of value; “men are unmarked while women are marked”
I think the sense of value wouldn’t have been accepted if he hadn’t lived in 19C.
Conlangers’ personal taste or sense of value are influenced by not only their personality but also their environment in growth and the era where they live. E.g. all men with each individual personality have sense of value (or thought) that it is illegal to grow marijuana and crime is a bad thing if they are Japanese today. In their sense of value (or thought), growing marijuana is illegal. People in a society where growing marijuana isn’t illegal don’t have the same sense of value (or thought) to Japanese. Like this, conlangers’ personal taste or sense of value are influenced by not only their personality but also their environment and so on.
