well i suppose i ought to translate my own catchphrase... in
draalkathu:
shmuli atae muhnkia
fuzzy blue monkey.PL
(i'm not quite sure how to transcibe it but muhnkia is
basically the american pronounciation with an a on the
end... monkey is one of my favorite words so i really
couldn't mess with it for my language (the word for crazy
also comes from monkey :)))
in whatever system it is i'm learning in linguistics (i
think it's a combination of IPA and something else)
[s(with hatcheck)muli ate m^nkia]
fuzzy blue monkeys...shmuli atae muhnkia... jiqek qelek
nimmekel...
