The Rolano Language is a conlang that was created on the 29th of June, 2024, by an unknown linguist. Rolano is heavily influenced by the Spanish and English languages, having features common in both Romance and Germanic languages. The language itself would best fit into the Romance family.

The language was initially created for the fictional country of Rolania, also known as the Kingdom of Rolania (Spanish: Reino De Rolania) and started development after the creator translated the song Viva La Vida by Coldplay and uploaded it to YouTube on the same day.

Grammar

The grammar of the Rolano language follows the Subject-Verb-Object rule, as does its inspirarional languages, as well as the noun-adjective order from Spanish. This language does not have a sense of plurality. There is only one article: "i", meaning "the" and "a".

Grammatical gender in Rolano works differently than it does in most languages, where there are two genders, yet only one word for "the", or "i". As in Spanish, -o is masculine and -a is feminine, however this rule only changes adjectives.

Verb conjugation in Rolano is very simple, with verbs in the first person always conjugating the same no matter ghe tense, with an "n" is added to the end of the word. There are only two tenses in rolano; present and past. Otherwise, the present tense does not conjugate, and the past tense adds an accent over the last letter.^[1]

History

The Rolano language started development on the 29th of June 2024, after the creator translated the song Viva La Vida into a language they had not yet created. They created the language as they went along, and continues to this day to develop the language. The creator themself has directly started they do not have an identity^[2], and they have not yet stated their reasons for creating their language, however the most likely reasons include for fun, as an art project, or for spiritual reasons.

Art and Spirituality

The creator of the Rolano language uploads very artistic videos, having a distinct style that includes a 1:1 aspect ratio, low saturation and frame rate, hidden or flashing symbols or text, text that follows a certain object in the video, drawings of ravens and feathers, nature, and backround music composed by British composer Lucas King.^[3] Their videos have a slight spiritual undertone, likely being inspired by Ancient Germanic paganism, with a very heavy emphasis on the divine nature of Ravens and other members of the Corvus genus.
