Adam, you once made a topic where you gave people sarus names based on thier personalities. When you did this, you used vowels, and not just d, r, m, f, s, l, and t. You said my name was "Boy from Mountain". Dsl Lf Lfm. But you added extra letters to make it "Dusyl Lyf Lufaem". Will sarus actually be spoken this way? Is there a way to tell which vowels to use, or does it not matter as long as you get the main letters? |

Oh. Then what about the YuYu's when they speak in LittleFoot? |

It may just be phonetically written. Slightly less confusing to many peoples heads than just a whole tonne of constanants. |

They can be written like this: l sld dts m ft ltt, or with vowels added: la solado dotiso me fati latiti (doesn't matter which letters you put between them, because you only pay attention to the Sarus letters - - you could even go ly syladx dhtasq mh fgtn lptutk if you wanted). But they're pronounced like this: la sol[size=-1]uh[/size]d[size=-1]uh[/size] dot[size=-1]uh[/size]s[size=-1]uh[/size] me fat[size=-1]uh[/size] lat[size=-1]uh[/size]t[size=-1]uh[/size]. Note: the final 'uh' sound isn't always necessary at the end of a word. In littleFoot, the last YuYus says: dot mem[size=-1]uh[/size] fas[size=-1]uh[/size]s dof. That's because dot[size=-1]uh[/size] mem[size=-1]uh[/size] fas[size=-1]uh[/size]s[size=-1]uh[/size] dof[size=-1]uh[/size] is a slower and less natural way of saying it. |

I do like the 'drop the last vowel from multi-syllabic words' thing. it allows you to speak it faster, and adds more distinction between words. |

yeah it does make it quicker to speak. Sometimes the 'uh' sound is necessary in certain situations, to distinguish between words... most often when the end syllable of one word is the same as the first syllable of the following word. For example: df fss (he take) should be pronounced dof[size=-1]uh[/size] fas[size=-1]uh[/size]s Otherwise it'd be difficult to hear the distinction between the two words, and it could end up sounding like do fas[size=-1]uh[/size]s (don't take). same with dt tmd (we play). Without the [size=-1]uh[/size] sound, the two t's stick together, so it sounds like d tmd (don't play). One more really common example is dm m (you are). It must be pronounced dom[size=-1]uh[/size] me |
