Every episode of STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS ➢

1x10, A Quality of Mercy [1/2]

Kopikon II is about three months away, so let’s meet the speakers! I’ll present them in the order they’ll be presenting on October 10th at the University of Edinburgh. First up: Keras Saryan.

Keras Saryan is a conlanger and linguist. He has been constructing languages since his undergraduate days. As a linguist, his primary interests lie in the fields of phonetics and phonology, especially the interface between these two and the investigation of sound change. His PhD thesis focused on vowel harmony in Bantu and he is currently working on a project on the Turkic languages.

Keras will be opening Kopikon II for us at 1:10 p.m. at the University of Edinburgh (George Square), October 10th, 2025. To register, go here. The full schedule is listed below:
