Re: Things strange for a foreigner

What about the expression på något vänster(on some left(-side)) meaning in some strange way?

Re: Things strange for a foreigner

Now clue how to spell or pronounce it, but the Manx language has a phrase that goes something like ii iii i which means "she will drive".

Swedish has compound words like förvåning which means surprised but split part it means for apartment. This ought to confuse some strangers.

Re: What's your favourite word in your conlang?

Kuweiti [Kuweiti] - man. Don't really know why - probably a nice homophone that fits snuggly into the phonology. Out of nowhere, it popped up one late night when I got the impulse to use awkwords for once. Lhidju [ɬidju] - to eat/drink. Yep, only one word for these two concept. It was also one of t...
