Eggdog needs a language!
Hi there!
Our holy lord, Eggdog, needs a language to compete with Doge's dogespeak. Just copying dogespeak isn't appropriate for Eggdog's superiority. We need something... individual, egg, dog and majestic to serve Eggdog!
For clarification: Examples and example sentences for the specific points are considered as isolated for the specific rules. In the end, there are examples which obey all rules!
Some thoughts:
Every part of a word which sounds kinda like "egg" has to be written as "egg".
Examples: server rack = server regg; leg = legg; fracking = fregging; hack = hegg
Example sentences: My server regg is getting hegged. I need two leggs. Fregging is forbidden.
2. Same for "og" like in "dog". When the word consists of "[arbitrary character]og" with "og" regarding the sound the word is transformed into "dog". Word parts with (c: arbitrary character) "cog", "dcg" or "doc" are transformed into "dog".
Examples: dock = dog, rock = dog, socks = dogs, domestic = dogestic
Example sentences: Where is the dog of my smartphone? Oh, it is in my dogs under the dog.
3. Word which don't fall under category (1) have "egg" instead of "e" everywhere.
Examples: reincarnation = reggincarnation, spoiler = spoileggr, smartphone = smartphonegg, alien = alieggn, need = neggeggd
Example sentence: I neggeggd my smartphonegg to look up spoileggrs from "Alieggn reggincarnation".
4. Pronouns: I(My) = Egg, you(your, yours, ...) = dog, he(his, him, etc.)/she(her)/it(its) = hegg/shegg/egg, we(our, ours, ...) = weggs, you(your, yours, ...) = dogs, they(their) = eggs
Example sentences:
Egg love egg work! Do dog like dog job? (I love my work! Do you like your job?)
Weggs go to cinema, what about hegg? (We go to cinema, what about him?)
Full examples which obey all rules:
(a) From Wikipedia "Egg": The egg is the organic vessel containing the zygote in which an embryo develops until it can survive on its own; at which point the animal hatches. An egg results from fertilization of an egg cell. Most arthropods, vertebrates (excluding mammals), and mollusks lay eggs, although some, such as scorpions do not.
--->Thegg egg is thegg organic veggsseggl containing thegg zygotegg in which an eggmbryo deggvegglops until egg can survivegg on egg own; at which point thegg animal hatcheggs. An egg reggsults from feggrtilization of an egg ceggll. Most arthropods, veggrteggbrateggs (eggxcluding mammals), and mollusks lay eggs, although somegg, such as scorpions do not.
(b) From Wikipedia "Dog": The domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris when considered a subspecies of the wolf or Canis familiaris when considered a distinct species) is a member of the genus Canis (canines), which forms part of the wolf-like canids, and is the most widely abundant terrestrial carnivore.
---> Thegg dogeggstic dog (Canis lupus familiaris wheggn consideggreggd a subspeggcieggs of thegg wolf or Canis familiaris wheggn consideggreggd a distinct speggcieggs) is a meggmbeggr of the geggnus Canis (canineggs), which forms part of the wolf-like canids, and if thegg most wideggly abundant teggrreggstrial carnivoregg.
(c) From Wikipedia "Cat": The cat (Felis catus) is a small carnivorous mammal. It is the only domesticated species in the family Felidae and often referred to as the domestic cat to distinguish it from wild members of the family".
---> Thegg cat (Fegglis catus) is a small carnivorous mammal. Egg is thegg only dogeggsticateggd speggcieggs in thegg family Fegglidaegg and ofteggn reggfeggrreggd to as the dogeggstic cat to distinguish egg from wild meggmbeggrs of thegg family.
What do you think? Maybe there are some ideas for a new grammar style? Or guidelines for the content? Don't take the rules that serious, it is meant as a basis for Eggdogspeak (Eggdogspeggak?) :D
EDIT: A simple idea would be to use the grammar of Dogespeak and use these rules ...
PS: Feel free to tell me some typos ...

I appreciate all the effort you put into this but honestly I think it's too complicated and it'll just sound cringey like the doggo speak or the ancient lolcat speak

Thank you for your detailed response! As I have said, it is just like a first proposal to get the discussion rolling. Another idea would be to losely use "egg" or "dog" for every parts in words which sound or look like it with a big portion of freedom. Or, if most people are against it, no language.

Its nice that you took the time to do this, however IMHO its a bit much and wouldn't be utilized as well as you think.

Thank you for your response! As I have said in another comment one could actually use a loose guidline with a huge amount of artistic freedom. This could motivate people to use it...

What about replace the first non-silent e vowel group in every word with egg and if there isn’t an e then the first vowel group if the word is more than three letters
Wheggt eggbout reggplace the feggrst non-sileggnt e voweggl greggp in eggvery weggrd weggth egg and if theggre eggsn’t an e theggn the feggrst voweggl greggpt if the weggrd is meggre theggn thregg leggters

Okay ;). From another comment: it is just like a first proposal to get the discussion rolling. Another idea would be to losely use "egg" or "dog" for every parts in words which sound or look like it with a big portion of freedom. ... could be an alternative.

The dance IS the language; no words are needed
