Fifth Linguifex Relay


The Fifth Linguifex Relay was a conlang relay, a game of conlingual telephone, on Linguifex. The relay text was written in Tíogall by the relaymaster IlL. The text passed through eleven translations before being retranslated into Tíogall.

Texts

The original text was provided by IlL in his Tíogall language. The text is a love poem written by a (Tíogall equivalent of a) high school girl, for posting on a fanfiction website to represent her shipping of an original character, Toiréir Gruaid, with the charismatic male scientist character Stearras Nátsa from the TV show ___. The poem uses the Burns stanza, which is more common in Tíogall poetry than in English poetry.

Toħdádhéach - Warming Up to You

The relay ran from May 22nd, 2017 until June 7th, 2017, and included 5 languages on the wiki (Tíogall, Windermere, Dyrel, I Kronurum, and Rejistanian).

Warming Up to You
Toiréir Gruaid

[...]

Though I know you will wither as a corpse, [Or: Even when you have withered as a corpse]
I still gladly bask in your warmth, [Or: I would still bask in memories of your warmth]
For the same warmth nurtures curiosity,
The leaves of knowledge -
A garden that you have planted in this plot of land,
and forever will keep.

More Enjoyment
[dɵɹɪl gɹut]


Even though I know that you will die in the end
I so enjoy being in your warmth
Because this warmth increases desire to know
There are leaves of knowledge
A garden that you placed on this earth
And that forever remains

Loving

Even though I know you'll be dead when it is the end
I love staying by your fire
Because this fire makes me want to know,
and I know that the leaves of knowledge will bloom in this world
and remain in time forever

Let us enjoy

I know that I will die for you in the end.
I use, remaining in the fire, from here on so that its wisdom makes me yearn for this.
I know that leaves will likely bloom again in the world.
Time passes and I will remain forever.

When a man gives praise and thanks, let him do so repeatedly!
Die he will one day,
but he must have faith that leaves can sprout from barren soil.
For the spirit-complex is ever actively present,
so long as it dawns and dusks, and so long as time passes.
