Writer's Block: Two Truths and a Lie

[zianuray]

[Error: unknown template qotd] I have been initiated in three different versions of the craft.

I can't swim.

I fell off the barn ladder but did NOT crack the eggs I was carrying in my hands.

ETA:  I can swim, just not very well!

I bet you can swim just fine.

Actually, I can swim, just not very well :) Due to the amount of fat, I can float all day, can dog-paddle, and the kick-like-a-frog thing (breaststroke?), but the whole face-under-water thing confuses me and I try to breathe in at the wrong time!

I am going to guess #2 is the lie.

[zianuray.livejournal.com]

And you're right!

[diermuid.livejournal.com]

I'm going to guess that #1 is a lie, because you were actually initiated into four, or because one initiation was incomplete or something.

Actually, it was #2 -- I can swim, just not very well!

I will guess #3, just because nobody else has. :)

3 is not a credible lie because it's too hard to believe. So too #1. So I guess #2.

[zianuray.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sure, use logic and get it right :)

Live long and prosper. :-)

Ailecheim Shalom. (Spelling non-Latin-alphabet words with Latin alphabets confuses me.)

[fayanora.livejournal.com]

Yeah, latin letters for non-latin based languages is difficult. I should know, I have a constructed language called Trai'Pahg'Nan'Nog (http://fayanora.23ae.com/spiritual/AKB/trelli_lang.html) that has sounds in it I haven't a clue how to write properly. Like there's this one sound, dj, at the beginning of their only two pronouns: djai and the posessive form djair. There's no adequate way to describe the dj sound, you have to hear it. Because it sounds like a weird cross between dj and sh. I had to give that sound its own character in my two alphabets for the language.

Which are linked here:
Ahndahn's Alphabet, the original. (http://fayanora.23ae.com/spiritual/AKB/ahndahnsalphabet.gif)
Dven'Bahnis alphabet (http://fayanora.23ae.com/spiritual/AKB/dvenbahnis.gif). (The D in dven is silent)

I currently use a combo of those two, since I like some of the characters in Ahndahn's Alphabet. I haven't made a picture on the computer of the combined alphabet, but I call it Ahnd'Dven'Bahnis. And I can write in it fairly easily. Reading it is still a little hard, since it's a phoenetic alphabet (you spell things how they sound, in other words).
