I wonder if we can create a special language?(text) based on the game culture of dwarf fortress.
 With
 26 lowercase letters
plus 26 uppercase letters,
 . and, these two characters,

 a total of 54 characters,
 such as
. ct.    stands for cat,
. tg,   for tiger
. br. for wine,
only., at the beginning and the end,
 can make up about 10816 words.
 Through the combination of words, combined with game culture, the meaning of

. ct..br. for bizarre (strange things) can be generated.

It is characterized by brevity and no need for spaces.
 This language is difficult to get started, but advanced quickly

Ah, but why? I am unconvinced that a coded language, constructed through the removal of all inner letters of any given English word, would prove useful or efficient. Who would write this code?

Even as a novelty it is only so interesting. .

.df..sr.,fr..vn.,dr,

The Dwarven Spear Fighter Vanquished the Dragon?

OP honestly reads like something I would write while extremely inebriated. . . I approve of this kind of this kind of thing.

As far as I know, real languages, such as Chinese and English, have their own advantages and disadvantages. Chinese consists of 10,000 commonly used words, which are similar to English words. With regard to DFLanguage, my idea is to absorb the advantages of existing languages and combine the culture of games to create a neutral, interesting and vital "language (text)". If it can be passed down to the world, it will also be meaningful, just like this game. Now, just to explore a possibility and people's interest in participation, thank you for your reply
