Creature Languages, 02/09, Period 3

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

"You have now learned to speak, if haltingly, in Dragon, Rat and Spider. Those are all difficult tongues, with rich histories and their own quirks -- from the choppy vowels of Spider, to the crooning of Rat, to the rhyming of the dragons. I applaud your sincere efforts to learn.

Today, I would like for each of you to pick a so-called nursery rhyme and translate it into the Creature language of your choice. I trust that you will have no problems in finding appropriate substitutes for words that may not be on your vocabulary sheets."

Mary Had a Little Lamb (http://www.zelo.com/family/nursery/littlelamb.asp), in Rat.

//Mary had a small baby sheep,
small baby sheep,
small baby sheep.
Mary had a small baby sheep,
Its fur was white as snow.

Everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went,
Mary went.
Everywhere that Mary went,
The baby sheep was sure to went go.

It went with her to the place of learning one day,
Place of learning one day,
Place of learning one day.
It went with her to the place of learning one day,
Which got Mary in trouble.

It made the small humans laugh and not work,
Laugh and not work,
Laugh and not work.
It made the small humans laugh and not work,
To see a baby sheep at the place of learning.//

Cordy shrugs and hands it in.

"Deyinzo is the Rat for "children," Miss Chase," Dream says. "But thank you, this is fine work."
