When a sound shifts in a language, it shifts in every word at once, which is how linguists work back to ancestors no one wrote down. In Asterisk a made-up language spreads across a made-up land, splits into daughters and drifts by real sound laws, and any word can be traced back to its ancestor and heard as it changes.","learned":"I gave it a voice I cannot hear, so I checked the voice by measuring where its sound energy fell.","madeWith":["TypeScript and React","a sound-change engine with 46 kinds of rule","a Voronoi world","a formant speech synthesizer"],"sky":{"ra":"18h 09m","dec":"−4°"}}]}
