About

Beyondlogisms is a dictionary of invented vocabulary for the terrain beyond temporality and extension — 807 neologisms for states, places, and beings that ordinary language, built for time and space, has no words for.

The lexicon was compiled from seven independent sources of coinages and edited into a single work: duplicate concepts were resolved to a single strongest term, thin definitions were fleshed out, every entry was given an example sentence and an etymology that pairs classical Greek or Latin roots with invented ones, and all pronunciations were standardized to the International Phonetic Alphabet.

Interfiled throughout is XELIDH, the “same-speech” — not a language spoken in sequence but the vocabulary a reality without time or space implies, reconstructed from a grammar that marks no tense and no position. Its ninety-nine words carry their own proto-Xelic roots; a note on the language appears at the back of the print edition.
