@PeteBleackley why has "translating Genesis 11:1-9 (...) been a tradition for conlangers"?

@qyd0ro It's a mythical origin story for the diversity of languages, so it seemed an appropriate thing for people who create languages to use to show off their work.

@PeteBleackley
Isn't it only specific to christian mythology?

@qyd0ro well, Jewish originally, but Christianity originated as an offshoot of Judaism. But it was the subject matter rather than the source that recommended it.
