More humour (hopefully!)
I've just been going through "Latin for even more Occasions" by Henry Beard. If
you're not familiar with these books, they teach you how to use Latin in modern
contexts (example: Me transmitte sursum, Caledoni! Beam me up, Scotty!) so here
are a couple of examples from LEMO turned into my own conlang, Omeina:
No eite satustarion, du ro radi beren?
Is that a little sword in your tunic, or are you just happy to see me?
Rani dolku alon arnome!
Put it where the Sun don't shine!
BRDTT = NIMBY
Beku rani dolku tarodion
Don't put it in my tree!
