Kansalvate minnon!

Me ee ComatoseFox ey me ee o tsukeraror de o langu Psalliardais.

Ima, koko deon, me desiree naruar o Psallilardais des o quere naraur de Psallilardais, komon?

Euh, de hajimerar, o on de Psallilardais des un wakarar koto masaii de Psallilardais.

a = "ah" as in "car"
b= "buh" as in "bat"
ch= "chuh" as in "cheese"
d= "duh" as in "dog"
e= "eh" as in "hey"
f= "fuh" as in "fox"
g= "guh" as in "gold"
h= "huh" as in "hot"
i= "ee" as in "meet"
j= "zhuh" as in "j'accuse"
k= "kuh" as in "kick"
l= "luh" as in "lip"
m= "muh" as in "man"
n= "nuh" as in "nap"
o= "oh" as in "cone"
p= "puh" as in "pass"
q= "kiuh" as in "queso" (essentially a "kuh" sound, but will always be followed with "u")
r= "ruh" as in "ran"
s= "suh" as in "saw"
t= "tuh" as in "tone"
u= "oo" as in "duty" (if stressed) and "uh" as in "cut" (if unstressed)
v= "vuh" as in "vote"
w= "wuh" as in "whack"
y= "ee" as in "meet" (much like "i" but more explosive)
z= "zuh" as in "zap"

We also have many consonant blends like english....but some that may not be so easy for English speakers are the ()s blends such as....

Bs (as in "Bsadillia" (cornerstone)
Ds as in "Dsigno" (designer)
Hs as in "Hso" (face)
Ks as in "Ksalm" (strike/blow)
Ps as in "Psallilardais" (Psallilardian)
Ts as in "Tsukerar" (to create/make)

In order to use those consonant blends...say the orignal sound...but go immediately into a hissing sound for the "s" duration.

Before I leave for now a few basic phrases to get you guys speaking Psallilardian right now! biggrin

Hello = "Kansalvate"

How are you = "Quon de y?"

I am fine = "Ii de y."

I am okay = "Makaii de y."

I am bad = "Wazuii de y."

What is your name? "Que ee y no nama?"

My name is... "Me no nama ee...."

Euh, mada de o jikara despuene...
(Well, until the next time...)

Salas! (Bye!)

Walkunmen returna!

Okay, now since you've seen the basic sounds of Psalliardian, here are some verbs to help you learn the conjugations. Verbs are always essential to any language and as my Japanese teacher in HS said once "verbs are the most important part."

Therefore...let's get started!


The basic pronouns of Psallilardian are as follows:

Me = I

Y = You

Ilo = He

Ila = She

Il = It

Nan = We

Van = You (pl.)

Ilon = They

Now...each verb in Psallilardian will end in -ar. And there are no seperate conjugations per pronoun to worry about. ^_^

Parlar - To speak

Present positive form (I speak, you speak, he speaks...etc) Just drop the -ar and replace with "ee"

Me parlee, Y parlee, Ilo/Ila/Il parlee, Nan parlee, Van parlee, Ilon parlee.

Past positive form (I spoke, you spoke, he/she/it spoke...etc.) Just drop the -ar and replace with "a"

Me parla, Y parla, Ilo/Ila/Il parla, Nan parla, Van parla, Ilon parla

Future positive form (I will speak, you will speak, he will speak..) Just add "a"

Me parlara, Y parlara, Ilo/Ila/Ilon parlara, Nan parlara, Van parlara, Ilon parlara.

Conditional positive form (I would speak, you would speak...) Drop -ar and replace with "ask"

Me parlask, Y parlask, Ilo/Ila parlask....

Progressive positive form (I am speaking, you are speaking...) Drop -ar and replace with "o"

Me parlo, Y parlo, Ilo/Ila/Il parlo....

Polite request positive form (please speak) Drop -ar and replace with "te (or ete if there is a consonant) ksadashan"

Parlete ksadashan?

Positive command form "Speak!" Add "zo!" to the end of the first form.

Parlee zo! (I/you/he/we/they Speak!)

Parla zo! (I/you/he/we/they have spoken!)

Parlara zo! (...will speak!)

Parlask zo! (...would speak!)

Parlo zo! (...is speaking!)

(usually, the matching pronoun is added at the beginning if clarity has not already been established as in (Y parlee zo!) (You speak!) then since "Y" has been established....(Parlee zo!)

Now, here's a trick to watch out for....when conjugating verbs...if you drop the -ar ending and there is a vowel...then drop until you get to the consonant before it...if you drop -ar and there is a consonant...just add the ending.

Parlar - ar = Parlar + ee = Parlee. (to speak -> Do speak)

But....

Tabear - ar = Tabe - e = Tab + Tabee. (to eat -> Do eat)

Some basic Psallilardian verbs:

Ear - To be
Avar- To have
Fwar - To do
Desirar- To want
Penar- To need
Dekirar- To be able to
Mettar- To put
Kirar- To cut
Kitar- To wear
Gorar- To throw
Tabear- To eat
Nomar- To drink
Lar- To think
Psanar- To take
Govar- To allow
Arucanar- To deny/forbid/prohibit
Mirar- To see
Kikar- To hear
Odar- To smell
Gotutar- To taste
Sinar- To feel
Ksavar- To carry
Poingar- To bounce/jump/spring
Follar- To flip
Rirar- To laugh
Polar- To wonder about
Zanzar- To party/celebrate
Actuar- To correct
Devar- To be wrong/mistaken
Difarar- To differ from/deviate
Badar- To attack
Dadar- To defend
Jahzanar- To win
Oavar- To lose
Nebrar- To keep
Tsakar-To give
Tsukerar-To make/create/cook
Vuvar- To live
Shinar- To die
Shillar- To pray
Obatar- To pay
Naretotar- To steal

I think that does it for me this time...until soon!

Salas!

Okay guys, sorry for the hiatus. I'm back for another lesson in Psalliardian.

Numbers/Sunga

Well, we all know how important numbers are. Without them, there goes prices, placesettings, dates, time and a LOT of different applications.

Really...in Psallilardian, all you need to learn is 0-10, 100, 1000, 1,000,000 etc. So here we go:

0 = ra

1= un

2= ni

3= tre

4= kan

5= sank

6= sez

7= nal

8= psad

9= tae

10 del

To make numbers 11-99 just make this formula _ x 10 + _

11= Delun

25= Nidelsank

66= Sezdelsez

80= Psadel

99= Taedeltae

100 = Tsian

101 - 999... _ x 100 + _ x 10 + _

101= Tsianun

243= Nitsiankandeltre

397= Tretsiantaedelnal

404= Kantsiankan

521= Sanktsianidelun

999= Taetsiantaedeltae

1,000 = Mod

1,000,000 = Modon

1,000,000,000 = Modashian

Now...for ordinal numbers (1st, 2nd, 3rd etc.)

Simply add "dai" in front of the number.

1st = Dai un

2nd = Dai ni

3rd = Dai tre

1,000,000th = Dai Modon

Note: If they're numbers...they're all squished together in one long word...but if it's Dai __ the word "dai" and the number are seperate words.

Well, that does it for me so far...until next time.

Salas!

This is somewhat Japanese influenced, no? 日本語のような言葉がいっぱいあるからそう思ってます。

Well....yes it is. It's kind of based off Japanese and French...with a few Spanish and Russian styles thrown in...basically it's proportional to the languages I have studied.

Japanese = Conversationally Fluent (Strong Influence)

French = Conversationally Fluent (Strong Influence)

Spanish = Basic Knowledge (Some Influence)

Russian = Attempted to study (A few things here and there)

Tagalog = Just started studying (A few things here and there)

So yeah...it is based strongly on Japanese...and French. smile


Any ideas on lessons? I wanna be able to teach you guys like, conversational Psalliardian, but I just don't know how to go about it, or what you guys want to learn.

Food? Clothes? Rooms of the house/furniture? Animals? Colors? Basic Phrases when traveling? What? Need ideas! biggrin Thanks!

ア、言語をたくさん勉強してるんだね。スゲー。僕も基本な日本語がペラペラですが、ニュースなどは、あまり分かりません。難しい単語が多すぎるからね。それでも、毎日の会話ができます。

ごめんなさい、考えが全然ありません。何を教えてもいいって思います。頑張ってね。
