==How To Speak==
* The '''pronoun''' is assumed as being you unless contradicted.
** Using your name is redundant.
** If you must refer to the subject do so at '''the end'''.
* Use '''nicknames for people''', the language is based off moving the structure of a sentence into as many ''confusing manners'' as possible. In fact, using a '''nickname of a nickname''' is best.
* ''Adjectives'' come '''first''', Then ''verbs'', even if you form them as nouns
** In general, '''verbs should be gerunds''', meaning they should end with ''-ing'', even if that's not normally correct.
** The only exception is if the verb can't become a gerund without loosing the needed meaning.
* Form sentences ''(Tense-Adjective) (Verb-Gerund) Noun''
** The longer the sentence is it becomes '''symmetrical'''.
** Remember it '''TAV-GuN; Nug VAT''' Those in parenthesis (see above) ''can be swapped'' around with each other.
*** I don't know where the u came from, this is how a friend explained it to me.
* It's better to use '''shorter sentences''', the longer ones give more '''clarity, which we are trying to avoid'''
* '''Don't use possessives''' unless they are formed as ''adjectives''.
** To refer to a subject say '''"of <subject name>"'''.
* Many phrases begin with '''Wasing''' or '''Ising'''.
** '''Ising (in the) now''' is incorrect, don't pair them. This ''changes'' the tense.
*** If you must change the tense, you'll have to cycle again, or you risk adding to much clarity to what you say.
** Don't neglect '''Notting, Nowing, Nearing, Having, Kind, Good''' and other words as they work well too.
*Remember that you'll learn to understand it before you speak it near as well.
