I'd like to work with someone who ideally has a bit of experience with computer science (I've only taken CS21), but I'm open to working with anyone! My top choices for languages to work with this semester are:
- Pontic Greek
- Walon
- Kweyol Dominik
Pontic Greek
I believe Pontic Greek would be classified as a fusional language since it seems to use inflectional morphemes to distinguish words' grammatical and semantic functions. There are about 200,00-300,000 native speakers, primarily in northern Greece where they immigrated from from northern Turkey. Speakers of Pontic Greek likely also speak modern Greek, and they use the Greek script for written communication. The ISO code is pnt, and there seem to be some texts available online.

Walon
Walon is a fusional language, as it uses affixes containing multiple pieces of grammatical information. It is primarily spoken in Wallonia, Belgium, with some speakers in Brussels. There are estimated to be around 600,000 speakers, who might also speak Dutch, French, or German, since those are the official languages of Belgium. The Latin alphabet is used for writing, and the ISO code is wln. Some plays and translations of ancient Greek and Latin texts are available online.
