  • Verse:Aoife/Old Irishlang: A grammatically kitchen sinky language (Irtan drug name gib given an Old Irishy grammar)
    • with loans that look like Hebrew written in Gü-Ghoydeliș (in fact, Aoife should invent Gü-Ghoydeliș; she should put some actual Hebraeo-Ăn Yidiș in it)
    • written in Old Irish orthography with a kind of "niqqud" to eliminate ambiguities such as -t(t) being both /d/ and /t/
    • Aoife should include a poem at least as cryptic as Atz Kotzetz in this language in her game (a poem which includes very morphologically weird forms and whose literal meaning is hard to interpret); she attempted to write one for OIr. One of the quests in the games is to try to find clues (which are MacGuffins) to the poem's meaning.
