  1. How to learn a Laa Language
  2. 1. Introduction.
  3. Well, hello there. I don't know the actual reason why you should really learn this language. But it's okay, because it was made to be easy and to hide your secrets from others using it, because there would be no translations to whatever you wrote. Following the basic rules, you would be able to understand the language and create phrases easily.
  4. Valuable notice: originally it is made as a diary language to hide your thoughts from whoever wants to read them. I highly recommend you to create your own alphabet to make the text completely unreadable without the cypher, or even if it's revealed, still no one will understand what's going on.
  5. I am making this instead of working on my diploma project cause IDGAF, that's all. Diploma isn't interesting even a tiny bit.
  6. Also, completely forget the English pronunciation. There's nothing about it in Laa. The most similar way to pronounce the Laa words is as in Latin or Japanese.
  7. So, let's move on, and, maybe, thank you for choosing it. Whatever your reason is, be smart.
  8. 2. "Me, myself and I".
  9. The best point to start with - is to start from yourself. "Wa" is "I" in Laa. Me is "Wa" too. "Ta" is "you".
  10. And the main idea - simply combine things like alchemy to get the new words. "We" is just "I + you", so it's "wata". Simple enough?
  11. To continue, you must remember the main point. Any word describing people with ending "o" is about men. Any word describing people with ending "a" is about women.
  12. So, "he" is "ho". "She" is "ha". How would be "they"? Right, it's "hoha". And, running a bit forward, "this" and "that" is "eos" and "teos".
  13. Here goes another interesting thing. You might want to say "me and you" instead of "we" or "us". So here goes the "to" particle. "To" means "and", but not only this. It's also showing the direction of speaking.
  14. Step-by-step. So, "wa to ta" is "me and you". But also this is "I... you". As a quick example: "wa to ta nado luos" means "I had never loved you", where "nado" is "never" (in a meaning of past, there a two different "never" in Laa), and "luos" is "to love". Construction is simple: relationship between "me and you", time, when the action is going on and finally, the description of action itself.
  15.  
  16. Little dictionary:
  17. WA - I
  18. TA - you
  19. WATA - we, us
  20. HO - he
  21. HA - she
  22. HOHA - they, them
  23. EOS - this
  24. TEOS - that
  25. TO - and (or direction marker)
  26.  
  27. 3. "It belongs to me!"
  28. Hope you are doing well, my friend. So, know we know the main words, now it's time to learn how to say "his/her" or "mine/yours". Follow it:
  29. "Was" and "tas" is "me" and "you", BUT in the meaning "someone who conversation is about". By the old alchemy formula, "us" is "watas". As example: "they are speaking about us now" would be "hoha to watas node spaus", where "node" is "now" and "spaus" is "speak".
  30. You might notice that Laa is a strange mix of Japanese structure with English words. And you would be completely right - to ease the understanding most words took their beginnings from English.
  31. To the next point: "him" and "her" in the above meaning is "hos" and "has". And the sum is "they" - "hohas".
  32. You might also notice the "s" letter. In Laa it is mostly used as a verb ending to describe the person who is doing something and the time when it does it. So, "spau" is "speaking" in general, yes, but when it comes to "I speak", it's "spaus".
  33. We'll obviously come back to this question later. Let's move on. How to say "mine" and "yours"? Yes, you might understand it right. Change the ending. "Mine" is "waos" and "your" is "taos". Remember the formula? "Our" is "wataos". Easy, isn't it?
  34. "His", "her" and "their"? "Hoos", "haos" and "hohaos". But it's only when you speak about one thing that belongs to someone. When you speak about somebody who has a lot of stuff, change to "multiplicating" ending "as". So it would be: "waas", "taas", "wataas", "hoas", "haas", "hohaas".
  35. Remember: "os" - one thing. "as" - many things.
  36. Example: waas suizu - my candies. Waos suizu - my candy. Also "suizu" means "sweat", "nice".
  37.  
  38. Little dictionary:
  39. WAS - me
  40. TAS - you
  41. WATAS - us
  42. HOS - him
  43. HAS - her
  44. HOHAS - they
  45. Talking about one thing:
  46. WAOS - mine
  47. TAOS - your
  48. WATAOS - our
  49. HOOS - his
  50. HAOS - her
  51. HOHAOS - their
  52. Talking about many things:
  53. WAAS - mine
  54. TAAS - your
  55. WATAAS - our
  56. HOAS - his
  57. HAAS - her
  58. HOHAAS - their
  59.  
  60. 4. "Completely no!".
  61. Let me introduce you to the world of "yes" and "no".
  62. "Yes" is "so". "No" is "su". But "su" doesn't only mean "no". It's also creating a negative form of a verb. So, if you are not doing something, just add "su" to a verb. It's easy: "wa su spaus" is "I don't speak".
  63. Maybe, you are not sure, yes or no? Here it come:
  64. "Sulek" - "I don't know", it's actually "no" + "knowledge" (lek). "Do" is "maybe". How would it be, "maybe, yes" and "maybe, no"? Ah, you remember it! Right, it's just "doso" and "dosu".
  65. And the last, but not the least is "too", which is "ado" in Laa. "Me too"? Yes, "wa ado".
  66. Such a short chapter, isn't it?
  67. Little dictionary:
  68. SO - yes
  69. SU - no
  70. SULEK - I don't know
  71. DO - maybe
  72. DOSO - maybe, yes
  73. DOSU - maybe, no
  74. ADO - too
  75. 5. Time.
  76. Oh, that's a definetely hard part incoming. So, everything is based on a word "de", which is "time" in Laa. So every operations with time contain "de" at the end. Only the beginning is changing.
  77. Where to start? Okay, let us start from the basics.
  78. "Today" is "tode". See it? "To" borrowed from "TOday" and then we add "de". And this formula leads to the key. "Wade" is "yesterday". And don't ask me why it's not "yede". How would be "tomorrow"? It's "tomde". Why "tom"? I think you get the rule, isn't it?
  79. The easy example is: "wa to igu tomde igos". Let's explain the construction. "Wa to igu" is roughly "me and game". "Tomde" is "tomorrow". "Igos" is "to play". So we have "tomorrow I am going to play the game". Without the context word "tomde" we don't have the information about time, and then it means "I am playing the game".
  80. RULE: Verbs in Laa are dependent to context. If there's no context, then verb means that action is going on right now.
  81. EXAMPLE: Wa to igu wade igos - I played the game yesterday
  82. Wa to igu igos - I am playing the game
  83. Wa to igu tomde igos - I would play the game tomorrow
  84. How would it be "now"? Oh yeah, it's "node". Just English "now" and Laa "de" combined together. Such a gorgeous formula.
  85. A-a-and returning back to the two forms of "never" in Laa. See, it's not enough to say "never". You should describe the way that "never" is. So, if you say it in a context "I won't do that anymore", say "nade". And if you want to say "I never used to do it", say "nado".
  86. Example: "Wa to ta nade luu" - I would never love you
  87. "Wa to eos igu nado igos" - I had never played this game
  88. See the difference? Again, "nade" is "I would not" in future, "nado" is "I did not" in past. Understood? Let's move on.
  89. How to say "I'll do it later"? First of, let me introduce you the "do/does", which is "dau", built from "da" - "the action".
  90. Now you are ready to know the "lade" and "ede", which are "later" and "earlier". Turning back to the wished sentence, how you say "I'll do it later"? It's "wa to da lade dau", where "wa to da" is "me and action" and "lade dau" is "do later". Simpler than it's supposed to be!
  91.  
  92. Little dictionary:
  93. DE - time
  94. TODE - today
  95. WADE - yesterday
  96. TOMDE - tomorrow
  97. NODE - now
  98. NADE - never will
  99. NADO - never had
  100. DA - the action
  101. DAU - do/does
  102. LADE - later
  103. EDE - earlier
  104. 6. Time, part 2.
  105. Now speaking about the time again. You might want to say the date and time, wouldn't you? Let's start from the bottom and move up to something big. I would add a description to every word to make you remember it faster.
  106. Sede - second ("SEcond" + Laa "time);
  107. Mide - minute ("MInute" + "time");
  108. Hode - hour ("HOur" + "time");
  109. Dade - day ("DAy" + "time");
  110. Made - month (used to go "ma" instead of "mo");
  111. Yede - year ("YEar" + "time");
  112. Dekade - a decade (too simple);
  113. Sende - century ("SEntury", yes);
  114. Milde - millenium ("MILlenium" + "time").
  115. And there is no actual way to divide it to "year" and "years", as example. So it depends on the digit you say before it. Basically, if there is no digit before, "yede" is automatically "one year". "U yede" is "one year" too, but "pu yede" is "five yearS". Simply combine, right? Don't forget my alchemy and expect the great results if you do so.
