well in narethaal there are three words for crazy... crazy in a bad way would be "etorai" and that would be referring to people of the psycho/sociopath variety... then there's "dorndre" which would be used to refer to someone who is mentally ill on a slightly less extreme scale: dissociative identity disorder, schidzophrenia (sp?)and the like... and then of course there's "moonkai" (derived from monkey)... crazy in a good way... which is used to describe people who are crazy as in weird or eccentric... perhaps a certain girl with an affinity for monkeys... ===== fuzzy blue monkeys-shmuli atae muhnkia-jiqek qelek nimmekel-Luddiga blå apor-flauschige blaue Affen-tódifai kówainG MANgKIWi-mêndos êzoros faffalos-khami zhaftami nuri xhan-jasánni júñi jakihéññi-Moncaithe gorma clúmhacha-Monhyey ngonul hweyaru ryehyumeru_muncaidhean gorma molach-jhachtaraadkimyo-monos peludos azules-pushistye sinie obez'iany-zçínesfersaup sülíraup böfparaup-k&#281;dzierzawe niebieskie ma&#322;py-cirmos ke'k majmok-fuzzi serule mini-primate-Hlässöbonakkäa Jonäjë-pluizige blauwe aapjes-menomeno yanubi wayanoso-monkátí kosipi eyoh ...nicole __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
