Ok so basically, I always wanted to create a language! So this is a thread for the whole community,and my own benefit.

Basically all you do is post a word and then give it's translation in the english language.


Dictionary!

Quote

Jehg = THE
Fonz = Cool & Interesting
Tee Ess Oh - Fine Gentlemen
Oh - Fine
Tee Ess - Gentlemen
Coo'sh = War
Ta = Men
Tee = Man




Let the language begin!

User Suggestions:

1. No silent letters.
2. Phonic spelling.
3. being able to say 2 things at once (ie. Fonz = Cool and Interesting). This will allow people to speak more quickly as they'll be able to say 2 (or more) things in just 1 sentence.

Let's compromise: let's do it and say we didn't. Anyway m'astab = attractive man.

May take into consideration, only because you have the sexiest signature ever.

So this isn't really create a language, it's just "replace the vocabulary of English with random words while keeping the syntax and grammar the same"

Point. We need to change the grammar. Before we move one, we should take care of this.

My suggestions:
1. No silent letters.
2. Phonic spelling.
3. being able to say 2 things at once (ie. Fonz = Cool and Interesting). This will allow people to speak more quickly as they'll be able to say 2 (or more) things in just 1 sentence.

Any other ideas?

Just wondering, but would we be able to post in this language (once the vocabulary developed)? The English only rule and all.

If need be, and if you want too aswell. First let's get a basic vocabulary down first though.

Also:
Joke Posts = No fun.

/\ =a
/|\ =c/a'b
(| =d
|> =e
<| =f
-|- =g
[-] =h
(-) =I
~|~ =j
-| =k
|- =l
<^> =m
^> =n
<^ =o
|) =p
/^\ =q
<|> =r
(` =s
‘) =t
~^~ =u/v/w
\| =x
|/ =y
\/ =z

*=space
+=period
[+]=exclamation point
{+}=Question mark
~+~=comma

BEHOLD, I made this at least a year ago for a space RP and haven't gotten to use it in ages.

I'm not sure we have any words that use a'b yet, but lets make that a priority just to make things silly.

Also, any typos made in this thread should become part of the language.

Well... Let's stick to the Roman Alphabet for now. We can work on the alphabet after the language is set up.
