Turning set theory into the world's worst conlang

Показать описание
I feel like the title kinda explains the video, I turned set theory into a conlang and it's very bad (Deliberately).

The music playing for most of the video is by Unicorn Heads and can be obtained from the YouTube audio library.

Thanks monstergarden.

Hey everyone, here are a few notes:
Yes, the language is Turing complete
Yes, the sets being ordered technically makes them lists, not sets
Thanks to everyone who pointed out that the > at 0:57 is pointing the wrong way. You can now stop doing that.
The language definitely could be streamlined a bit more, I might make a follow-up video at some point which uses fewer than 10 words.

You can cut two more words from your vocabulary by dropping And, Not and Or and replacing them with a single Nand operator. Nand by itself is enough to define all possible boolean operations.

When your conlang first necessitates the translation of the mathematical axioms in order to invent nouns

If magic were real, this would probably be the kind of language you'd have to write spells in. It'd be like having a terminal for the universe, where you can write commands to move specific particles in a certain location to another location at a specified time. But actually typing out a command/"spell", especially one that does something useful, would take an obscenely long amount of time.

"Bilutabowase"
My guess for how it's written out:
(AO)ES
Which would (roughly) translate to "All things are in this set"

When your colang is secretly naive set theory and functional programming in a trenchcoat

this is exactly the intersection of conlangs and esolangs absolutely noone asked for. I love it

I was gonna ask why Bilutabowase doesn't have verbs, but then I realized that if you accurately described a system on the atomic level its behaviour would be completely deterministic and therefore implicit! Great work my man

To be able to even construct the word "I" would take millennia

i think this points out something really interesting about language. you didn't really make your language shorter. what you did was you distilled relationships between objects into a few core ideas. but the outcome was that your language was astronomically long. being able to define custom functions is basically just a cheat to define new words. without calling them words

An animation style made out of character symbols is something I didn't think I needed in my life, I just love this style and the topics of the videos too lol.

I initially thought this wouldn't be that bad... until I realized that, if you want to talk about something, you would need to define every single atom in that object and their position in a specific time that you would also need to define... oh dear.

It's interesting to contrast this with Ithkuil, which also tries to be completely unambiguous, but goes about it in a completely different way.
