An
internet language based on poor grammar and misspellings. The rules to speak proper tannerspeak are following:
1. All 'i's in a word
will be translated to 'u'. (unless effected by another rule) (see #4)
2. No two letters or vowels can be side by side, instead,
they are replaced by the first of the two.
3. All words ending with a vowel must have a 'g' after it.
4. All vowels before the last vowel (If there is only one vowel in a word, neglect this rule and see #1)
will be replaced with '
y' if the letter being replaced is an ('a', 'i', 'u') or a 'i' if the letter being replaced is an ('e', 'o').
5. Do not use punctuation.
6. Vowels that are repeated with a consonant in the middle (eso in 'awesome') the first of the 2 vowels is replaced with a 'e' if the consonant is a '
soft' sound, or 'a' if the consonant is a '
hard' sound. In the case of a 'th', or 'oi' between two vowels, the 'th' is replaced with u.
7. '
y' does not count as a vowel in any situation.
8. The correct pronunciation of '
y' depends on the letter in front of it. If the letter in front of it is a '
hard' sound, the y is pronounced as a 'i' ('i' in
pie). If the letter in front of it is '
soft' it is pronounced 'e' ('e' in easy).
9. All 'x's must be replaced by an 'o'.
Translations to Tannerspeak:
Easy = wesy (change E to
W)
Hard =
hard (no change)
Awesome = wisimeg (change 'a' to 'w'. Remove one 'w' because there are 2. Change 'e' to 'i'. Change 'o' to 'i'. Add 'g' after 'e'.(
Pizza = pyzag (delele one z. Change 'i' to '
y'. (#1 neglect for #4) Add 'g' to end)
Example = wompleg (Change 'e' to 'w'. Delete 'x' and change to 'o'. Add 'g' to end.)
