A couple of quick ones...

Unread post by aren vaal » 09 Nov 2014 05:56

Su cuy'gar. Ner gai Inigo Montoya. Gar r'kyr'amu ner buir. k'tsikado kyr'amur. (Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.)

Bar,

Meh n'kar'tayl, k'pirimmur ger tebec an! (When in doubt, empty the magazine--lit: If you don't know, use all your ammunition!)

Vor entye, MsLanna. How I wish there was a word for nuke (nuclear)!

But, since one is not forthcoming, how about:

Mhi ru'olaro'an, mhi ru'haa'tayli'an, mhi ru'muuri'bajiri'an! (500 extra nerd points if you can name the film it's from LOL)

Tion'meg gar ven'[call]?

It's moments like these that I realize how limited the vocabulary really is...

A couple more:

k'gotal'u ner tuur! (This one makes it painfully clear how limited the vocab is!)

K'tay'li gar burc'ye gebi, a gar aru'ee ori'gebi. (I think that's the quote LOL)

And a longer one:

Piruusti, ibac ori'jate, Ibac shi shabla ori'jate vod, jii meg ven'vaabit mhi? Mhi o'r ash'osik veman jii! Ibac bic, vod, kyr'geroya, vod, kyr'geroya! (Sorry about the language LOL)

Had to look up pirusti, but that's it. (It means well as in water source, by the way)
I'm really happy with how much more fluent I've been getting over the past few weeks.

Ke'naastar taap teh ori'laam. Bic haar shi yust trochar.

(yeah, that one was missing a few words, it's kind of a frankenstein's phrase with the amount of workarounds I had to do.)
