The Bulbagarden Conversational Chat Thread Vol 4

[Fab]

Yeah, I was wondering about how I'd read the parts in Chav language Scots. :I

All of it is like that, some of even harder to read. Watch the film first.

If you can make heads or tails of this then get the book, this is an extract from it;

Choose Life (Extract from Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh) | Gonzo

I can understand it all if I think about it for a minute, but... that kind of speech just doesn't fit the language he uses, to me at least. It's like an ordinarily well-phrased novel being narrated by a homeless Scottish skin-head.

Obviously Scots is just a dialect like Southern is here in the USA, but I've been given a stereotype to tack on it, I suppose. I can't help but think the same thing happens when it comes to Southern as heard/read by you guys across the pond.

Haha when I read it all comes naturally, despite being a well spoken Scot, ya ken whit ah mean?

Yeah it's just a dialect, we have some of our words though, such as aiblin, which means possibly.

I kinda wish Southern was like that, with its own written conventions. I think that's pretty neat, actually. I guess we kinda already do have some of those, not as Southerners specifically but as Americans. "Kinda" being one of them. xD

Man, now I feel like making a list or something.

A list of southern words? Far out.

Also, you read the announcement about social clubs?

Let's take a look so far:
- Y'all
- Some'n (pronounced "sum-'m", it means "something" and I have no idea why people say it like that, but whatever)
- Tha ("the")

Aaaaaaaand that's it.

Naw, I haven't read about the social groups. What's that?

... Hey, "naw" is another one. *goes to add it to the list*

The Maddona Free Zone is highly likely to close.

I just got myself posted. I don't know if it'll happen like that, but I'm not certain it won't, either. I wonder if there's a finger-crossing emoticon somewhere...

If it does close we'll recreate as many threads in Ent Inc as we can

[Jack Pschitt]

xD I can only imagine recreating the Water Cooler 2.0 in Entertainment, Inc..

Lol, I was thinking of creating the musical obsessions thread, recent purchase etc

[Jack Pschitt]

Entertainment, Inc. is more than music, so I don't know if some of those threads will be cool, or at least get very much action. Outside the Box has a few threads similar to some of the group's, too.

Man, now I'm torn between reading The Hobbit or doing school work. Immersive fantasy that I could never hope to actually live, or real life...

[Fab]

Lol real life. And you wonder why people turn to heroin.

I don't want Fab's to die.

[Hunter Blade]

Nah, that's just because they're bored.
