Pastafarian language

[Wu]

It is now quite obvious that the Pastafarian community has spread beyond the borders of plain old English so I had a thought (well, just that one for the moment) - what language suits FSM-ism best? Or should things just carry on as usual?

Would it be English? Some other living language, which one? A conlang (Constructed Language)? And - if a conlang, would you rely on pre-made languages, or make one on the spot?

FAQ:
Q: Why?
A: Well, I think it would make something interesting for the community As long as there is no linguistic discrimination and pointless language-for-initiated-only nonsense that creates a gap and alienation between people(s)...

So, shoot, let's see some new action

we can use plain old english with a twist....like before every syllable add chi- or i- or something funky like that....just a thought

No doubt i would vote for this one.

I think that the FSM would really appriciate it if we all devoted large portions of time to creating a new Pirate-based language that is independant of all inferior languages...

I think we should name it 'Arrrrrrrggglese'

Although finding my way in Shakespeares tongue pretty well, I can't master Pirate Talk. Of course, I love to read it, but I don't think it makes debating much easier Clearly written POE (although REALLY old English is FARRRR more difficult!), with some Pirate Talk thrown in, will do the job best, I think. Especially for Pastafarians like me, whose original language is not English. And having to master another new language before being able to participate in a discussion... RAmen!

I think POE is the best, at least for the cause of gathering new converts... It would be much easier for those whithout english as a first language to understand, rather than some pirate-hybrid. Even those who speak english fluently might be confused by to much pirate-speak...

you sure by the end you were still speaking leet never seen half of the letters you replaced in my life

[bassfarian]

Sorry to ask but... what is Plain Old English?? Something like Shakespeare wrote his Hamlet (I got only Hamlet in English at home...)? Because I got a hard work with my English as you can see in my grammar in all my posts like this one and it would be even harder to write in another form of English...

Well, there are often different phonetics- for example, "f" is often replaced by "ph", or p|-|

Besides, like I said, there are many different forms of leet.

There's Ancient Leet, Proto-l33t, Modern l337, and nex-gen 1337.

Here's an example:

English- I own you, newb!
Ancient leet- I pwn y0u, n00b!!!!!!!!
Proto-l33t- I p\/\//\/ j00, n00b!!1!!1111!!
Modern l337- 3y3 p|/\||\| j00, |\|00b!!!!11!!1oneoneone!!!!1one!!!!eleven!!!
nex-gen 1337- 3`/3 9UU1\1 j00, 1\[email protected][email protected]!!2221!!!~!~!!!one!!!1!22qws!!1exclamation!!!!11!!!
