[HALP!] Linguistics of Goblin Speech

[Anonymoose]

Pshhh... Shkohhh...

Meatyshield is wanting to trade tongueflaps like gobbiefolk? Moosenix thinks busydeal can be made; earcatch teachywords of Moosenix closelike.

"Pshhh... Shkohhh..." is an onomatopoeia for the sounds of breathing through the goblin mask; it often starts a sentence or marks a pause. Other than that, here's what I'd guess are some of the rules (don't assume they're gospel, though): Never use the 1st or 2nd person unless forced to; structure the sentence around both parties being in the third person (you may need to refer to other party members as nouns, maybe even a word you create). The biggest part stylistically is to never use a specific, complex word when you can create your own compound word using two simple, broad words. It's not an agreement, it's a busydeal. It's not a bridge, it's a watercross. It's not a settlement, it's a longstop. Likewise, avoid using [apostrophe-s] or [Adjective Noun] when you can throw an "of" in there (unless you can create another funny compound word).

Gobbie wordlaw is not mindsealed in one teachytime, and teachytime of Moosenix is not gift of wideheart.
