One common set of questions in conlanging forums is about how to organize the material, the grammar, the dictionary, lessons, etc. While there are some dedicated language tools out there, most of them are fairly complex or expensive. So most people just use word processors for their grammars and sometimes spreadsheets for their dictionaries, assuming they use computers at all.
The space between the \documentclass and \begin{document} lines is called the preamble, and this is were you can put all sorts of other declarations to change how LaTeX works, either by changing its default behavior or by adding new functionality. For this post, I'm going to mention a few things that are useful for conlangers to have in their preambles.
I'm pretty sure I've found a number of articles about linguistics in speculative fiction, but since my Hungarian is pretty much limited to "Az útlevelét,legyen szíves!" I can't be sure. It is worth noting that "have" is expressed by a particular construction for alienable possession: not only is the having subject to change, it is additionally under threat of being taken away.

Reisu is a conlang I have been working on for some time. It's the one conlang I have created that I keep revisiting, and revising. Even when it's been only in the back of my mind it refuses to stay away. Reisu is built off of a phonology that I consider both the most useful and beautiful sounds.

03:51 pm - ANGLO: A System for Transliterating English to Hebrew Script This is not strictly speaking a CONLANG, but it is a constructed script. It's an attempt to systematically render modern English into Hebrew letters. I have tried to keep it logical and precise without being pedantic or overly geeky.
This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page . Neo is an artificially constructed international auxiliary language created by Arturo Alfandari, a Belgian diplomat of Italian descent.

Postings contain made-up, fantasy words. Unreal words. Created words. In this blog you will find my amateur fictional words in Illunse (my words), and -- in comparision out of curiosity -- the words of constructed language expert J.R.R. Tolkien (Tolkien's words) in his elven languages of Quenya and Sindarin.
It seemed to me that there was a flurry of conlang-related activity during the latter part of 2012, so I decided to take a look back and see if any other significant events in conlangs and conlanging took place this past year. Turns out, there were quite a few.

Miresua is an imaginary language. Miresua is a scramble of Basque and Finnish, two languages that I don't actually speak but I find interesting. Words are intended to look foreign to English speakers. There is nobody in this world that speaks Miresua as their native language.

Writing systems have been invented and reinvented throughout history. In this tradition, I give you Pseudoglyphs. This website provides information on the design and development of the writing system, as well as the constructed language (conlang) which came after.
