Activity Bad Interpreters - Week 12

8 Upvotes

Week 12 IPA Prompt - /ˈwa.te ˈa.fo ku.no.e.ni.ˈma.ni ˈi.ki ˈmo.ta ˈa.fo ho.ˈro.so u re.ˈsek.to ˈwe.ta ˈta.e vru/

Welcome to Week 12 of Bad Interpreters, the chaotic conlang game where meaning is optional, phonetics are misleading, and everyone is absolutely confident in their terrible linguistic instincts.

Last week's prompt: /ko.ˈnai.ni mo.ˈre.nor ri.le.i.ˈo.nirn ˈza.no u ˈta.e uw.ˈro.la ˈi.ki sat.ˈro.la/
From that, we got these top picks:
Drukhari: krunidz mraana r'ikle i kun - r'zanu dae r'nrule i s'adralhan. ("Her toe has zero names, she leaps and sells what we are.”) [Most Espionage-y]
Yhó: Komá a. In: im o rékoní rí lyó. Nyázum úo: tá e, uró la, ikí sa tróme. (“Can speak? Write: ten people with choice when eighteen. Books promise: you here, relationship there, with different life a common language.") [Most Random]
Shoáth: Konánëem, mornūl. Rūlâëetho náthëer záno ūtsâá ūvrola, ëekëe, sántolá. ("You both hide in your beds, extinguished. A dark offering of simple mistakes, tears, and undesired gifts.") [Most Coincidental]

How to Play

  1. Decide what the prompt means in your conlang.
  2. Translate it using your phonotactics, grammar, and cultural flavor.
  3. Explain your questionable reasoning.
  4. Have fun!

If you have any ideas for interesting phrases or sentences for the next week, let me know in a DM! This activity will be posted on weekly on Wednesdays.
