had a dream griffin mcelroy was giving tours at the aquarium as like a special guest kind of thing and every time he’d stop in front of an animal he’d be like “alright gang gather round. i have no idea what the FUCK this is” and then we’d move on

“fish don’t even know theyre wet” and? you don’t even know youre luft (air equivalent of wet)

[adhd-languages]

This is a really good example of how we can just make up words that work. “Luft” is a perfect word for this it feels correct and we understand and can feel it.

Like it would’ve necessarily work with other words but “luft” is a combination of sounds that means luft (air equivalent of wet).

[questbedhead]

Thank you but the reason it works is because it is a deliberately chosen word!

The closest word we have in English for ‘wet but with air’ would be ‘aerated’, which is the past principle of the verb ‘aerate’. As a multi syllable Latin derived word, aerated wouldn’t feel equivalent to wet even if you just used it as an adjective in a sentence- so to have something that feels like ‘wet’ I looked for a monosyllabic air-related word with a German root.

As many have pointed out in the notes, ‘Luft’ means air in a lot of languages, because it comes from the proto-Germanic word ‘luftuz’. It’s also used in English as a chess term, and is a doublet of ‘loft’. Because it’s rare in conversational English but has the right etymology to evoke the idea of air and the texture of ‘wet’, it is very easily appropriated for the concept of ‘air equivalent of wet’.

“Worldbuilding” is a very sophisticated word for the process of “YOOOOOO wouldn’t it be cool if...”

[powerburial]

just realized you don’t need to say 6am or 6pm. we already know the m is there so just write like 6a or 6p. can’t believe no one figured this trick out before.

[signedsincerelymegan-blog]

or you could do the easy thing and say 0600 and 1800

[powerburial]

yeah like adding a bunch of unnecessary zeroes is easy. you piece of shit. you fucking coward

[surprisebitch]

6p means 6 pence. that shit wont work in the UK

[powerburial]

yeah but this is like for real people
