I don't know how true that statement is in regards to wokeness, I just like the rhyme. Valmy, do you live in Houston?

Really? Quebec is fucking weird.
Quote from: Admiral Yi on March 27, 2024, 02:46:13 PMQuote from: Jacob on March 27, 2024, 12:04:45 PMThe Trump coalition is full of folks saying "when Trump says he'll sell my interest group out, it's just empty posturing for effect or clever politics; he'd never actually do it. When he says he'll sell out interest groups I dislike, it's honest no-bullshit say-it-like-it-is truth and it's amazing and that's why I love him."
Trump doesn't give a damn about Israel or Palestinians. He'll turn to line his pockets and stroke his ego at any time it seems convenient. That may or may not include selling out Israel at any given point.
Disagree. It's my belief that the one interest group he considers absolutely indispensable is evangelicals. And Israel is their pet.
QuoteHere's the recipe: -Take English -Get rid of 75% of the sounds and syllables. -Now slam what's left together.
-simplify vowel sounds down to "eh", "ah", "ee" or oo". -Speed it up by giving it an almost superhuman ability of being able to produce literally two sounds at once, sounds over sounds.
"No! We are the Sardaukar!" "N. th Sardaukar!" (compress and speed up) "nah! (Tha/Sa)daukar!
"Those who stand against us fall!" " se-who st- gai-st u- falla " (compress and speed up) "suh-oost-ageesta-fallah"
"It is done" "It s-d- (compress and speed up) "Et'sa-duh"
The only word they don't shorten is "Sardaukar".
Which is BADASS! They let that stay long.
QuoteI contacted David J. Peterson about this because I was curious too! Turns out, the Saraukar language in Part 1 and the Harkonnen language in Part 2 are both English spoken in a heavy, strange accent and modified by the sound team. Was super impressed by the Harkonnen language though, I was searching for days after I watched the film to find any information on it.Source
QuoteFour watches, two in IMAX both high lol. The Harkonen language feels like a far far future derivative of an "Americano" language: Spanish and English blended together.
Only clue came from a soldier asking "Como Nemo/Devo?" And another phrase I can't recall exactly.
Anyway, would love to learn more about the creative process behind the creation of the languages of dune.
