Loncosh

Written on Teves 24, 5781


So, to be funny, I like to pronounce words where I convert voiced sounds to unvoiced (And vice-versa [alliteration not intended]), and make vowel sounds more "dull". Also, the letter A in superscript is pronounced like the A in cat. And a TH in superscript is voiced. Loncosh has no definitive spellings or pronounciations for words. The examples below will show various styles of Loncosh that have very different features. Loncosh is designed to look like mideival european langauges, and not look like english unless you know what is being translated (like the word "na" meaning "the").
I am also making a translator (that uses what I will call a completely different dialect, a lot more old-english-y) that will translate English to Lancosh. In the translator version, the A as in cat uses the ash letter, and the voiced dental fricative uses the eth symbol (look them up). Due to the restrictions with which I am working, many Lancosh features will be abandoned in the translator version. I will occasionally improve the translator.

"Followers of QAnon also believe that there is an imminent event known as the "Storm", when thousands of members of the cabal will be arrested and possibly sent to Guantanamo Bay prison or to face military tribunals, and the U.S. military will brutally take over the country.

"If when you say whiskey you mean the devil's brew, the poison scourge, the bloody monster, that defiles innocence, dethrones reason, destroys the home, creates misery and poverty, yea, literally takes the bread from the mouths of little children; if you mean the evil drink that topples the Christian man and woman from the pinnacle of righteous, gracious living into the bottomless pit of degradation, and despair, and shame and helplessness, and hopelessness, then certainly I am against it. But, if when you say whiskey you mean the oil of conversation, the philosophic wine, the ale that is consumed when good fellows get together"

"A false dilemma is a type of informal, correlative-based fallacy in which a statement falsely claims or assumes an 'either/or' situation, when in fact there is at least one additional logically valid option. For example, somebody uses false dichotomy when they say, 'Stacey spoke out against capitalism, therefore she must be a communist.'"
