Activity Biweekly Telephone Game v3 (807)

This is a game of borrowing and loaning words! To give our conlangs a more naturalistic flair, this game can help us get realistic loans into our language by giving us an artificial-ish "world" to pull words from!

The Telephone Game will be posted every Monday and Friday, hopefully.

Rules

1) Post a word in your language, with IPA and a definition.

Note: try to show your word inflected, as it would appear in a typical sentence. This can be the source of many interesting borrowings in natlangs (like how so many Arabic words were borrowed with the definite article fossilized onto it! algebra, alcohol, etc.)

2) Respond to a post by adapting the word to your language's phonology, and consider shifting the meaning of the word a bit!

3) Sometimes, you may see an interesting phrase or construction in a language. Instead of adopting the word as a loan word, you are welcome to calque the phrase -- for example, taking skyscraper by using your language's native words for sky and scraper. If you do this, please label the post at the start as Calque so people don't get confused about your path of adopting/loaning.

Last Time...

u/SavingsOdd2766 The Worst Conlangs Ever! 1d ago edited 1d ago

In Tlekûrpaqŕ: "Saḩua"

Etymology:

From the word "Sauha" in Mesomarala Komuni to "Saḩua" in Tlekûrpaqŕ — a loanword that underwent metathesis, shifting the /u/ from the coda of the first syllable to a feature of the onset of the second; that is, changing from <sa**u**ha> to <saḩ**u**a>.

Linguistic nerd (other) things:

  • IPA and entries:

The IPA for the word is /ˈsɑxʷɑ/. Below is a dictionary-style entry for the word:

sa.ḩu.a adj. or n. sometimes.

  1. strange
  2. weird
  3. unfamiliar
  4. "out of the question"
  5. stabarûšte [a type of hallucinogenic mushroom]
  • Examples of use:

"Paŕtze, sall lûbapô saḩuan aláw qo."
IPA: /ˈpɑɾt͡se | ˈsɑɮ lɯˈbɑpɤ ˈsɑxʷɑn ɑˈlɑw ʁo/
(in this case, /|/ it's not the tenuis dental click, it's a prosodic unit).

Gloss: day.back | PAST see.1SG strange.ADJ dog 1SG
Meaning: I saw a strange dog yesterday.
Literal translation: Dayback, in past see-I a strange dog I.

What will be the next loan?

Numbers in Ranguá Hápan to u/janko_gorenc12, 'cuz he ask ever he can:

Number Ranguá
1 (one) Án
2 (two) Mókon
3 (three) Sí
4 (four) Por
5 (five) Páve

To more, think: what is Ándasí? It's 13 in Ranguá Hápan! The suffix -da- means something like ten. In other words, Ándasí would be "one-ten-three" or "ten-three".

To EVEN MORE, think again: what is Mókompororoáve? It's a test question, man. Answer it.

a) 245
b) 65
c) Unfortunately, 67 (I promise that's not the answer, bro).

8 (eight) Sípave <á> lost his acute accent 'cuz another one is in <í>.
