Jessie Sams (@quothalinguist) and I created a language for Pixar's latest film Elemental. We created both a spoken language and writing system that are used in spots throughout the film. It's out today, so if you watch it, see if you can spot any of it! We had a lot of fun creating a language the requested "sound like fire". A tough thing to do with a human mouth, but we had some fun with it! Some language highlights:
Another Ember test for Elemental . I was pitching that Ember could kinda' teleport using dried leaves or paper. It was a little abstract, but that's what they were looking for at the time.
I loved the New Elementals movie!! Wade and Ember are adorable, we all need someone like Wade in our lives. And I know there is so much shade for this movie, but this movie is the most relatable to me and millions of people. So before you throw shade to it think about how it relates to other!
