phoenatikáánz and provincial dialects

disorganizer · May 23, 2002

I opened this thread to discuss our phoenatican written and spoken language.

It also contains a reference for written phoenatikááns and the coresponding dialects in this post.

rule summary (up for discussion):
Version 1.2 of 26.05.2002

Code:

[U]phoenatikáánz[/U]
[B]english     phoenatikáán[/B]
      a     á
      c     k     (if sounding like k)
      c     z     (if sounding like s)
      f     ph
      s     z
     th     d
      z     x
    -er     -r
    -se     -z
   -ums     -ra
      '     <leave it out>

additional changes for dialects:

[U]ameri dialect[/U]
[B]english     phoenatikáán[/B]
      a     o
      e     u

[U]new cormyr dialect[/U]
[B]english     phoenatikáán[/B]
    The     Ze
      C     K     (only capital C)
      c     c     (only little c)
            specialties:
            * accents are added at random intervals
            * repeated letters: w instead of first letter
            * phoenetic to a fault

The phoenatikáán language is for use only in the citizen forum! The official language will still be english!

juzt bekauz non-phoenatikánz otherwiz will not underzstand our phora!

And beware! There may be dialects in our provinces! Submission of a dialect is up to the governor of the province and can be changed at will!

i would first propose using:
z instead of s
and ph instead of f

juzt phor phun.

Grey Fox · May 23, 2002

and maybe "D" inztead of "TH", like Diz.

Zo dat would be interezting wouldn't it...

disorganizer · May 23, 2002

we should also leave out the 's.
and maybe implement some fancy accents, like á for a single a...

Diz would be á nice ding, wouldnt it?

Civanator · May 23, 2002

Zo why don't we do diz? It is a phun idea to do. or a k phor a c dat sounds like a k. and a z phor a c dat zoundz like a s and leave oph da e. Like diz:
GPH went diz way zo he could get to his palaz cause it is kool. der he had phun playing Ziv3 on a komputer and talked to a person named kris.

Zo in our new language der would be no S, C, TH, or F

Civanator · May 23, 2002

or anything that zoundz like A we use A or U we use U or O we use O and E we use E and I we use I

Duke of Marlbrough · May 23, 2002

Whatever you guys decide upon, just be sure to not use it outside the Democracy Game Forums. :cool:

disorganizer · May 23, 2002

we should change all word ending in "-ums"(="-umz") to ending in "-ra",

like:
phorumz will become phora!
