Yoshi Smart

Salwa liuda! I'm Yoshi, a second year comparative student who's absolutely fascinated by language reconstruction, so be sure to speak with me about proto-languages of any kind. I have helped to revive Gothic as a modern language, and Dynga is also a project I'm working on with others as an IE interlang, conlangs being another passion of mine.  þiuþida!
