An extract from a terribly important paper written by Summel Inquist-Velanthar in the extremely prestigious Journal of Outer Quantasian Philology (May 2017):
Towards the Identification of a New Phonemic Type:
...Currently, academic linguistics recognises thirteen types or categories of consonant sounds: Nasal, Stop, Sibilant & Non-Sibilant Affricate, Sibilant & Non-Sibilant Fricative, Approximate, Flap, Tap, Trill and several categories of laterals; in addition to four places of articulation: labial, coronal, dorsal and pharyngeal. Recently, however, several studies (literature reviews and fieldwork archives) have surfaced that point to the existence of a previously elusive category, the so-called sillybants, that it is believed require further study.
The recently discovered and documented Tsimpanz language (Goodall: 2002) reveals evidence of a kind of bilabial click-like consonant, [X]:

The scanty evidence for Gôtlandish, found in a fourteenth century work on the Asian boondocks (Yue-Tu Bei: c.1355) reveals evidence for what some Eastern linguists are calling a lolling, intralabial, undiquitial lingual trill, [lll]:

Other better known languages also reveal considerable evidence of sillybant use in ordinary language. A field collection of several such phonemes was collected by I.M. Ghahknee (2013):

Sillybants
Re: Sillybants
Contrary to popular belief, the bilabial besandotic fricative does not signify anything amorous, as the semi-analogous 'kissing sound' that it approximates. Rather, among the Little Tsimpanzin, Cornelian Tsimpanzahai, Galenic Jumanjin, and Ziran Tsimpanzali tribes, it often signals utter confusion, unabashed fear, or compleat disgust at some unfinished business in a previous life or other transaction.elemtilas wrote:

Big big fan of the Gôtlandish Gaitǫ̂rēsō . Y'know, the winners are traditionally regaled with a chorus of linguo-nasal snerts.The scanty evidence for Gôtlandish, found in a fourteenth century work on the Asian boondocks (Yue-Tu Bei: c.1355) reveals evidence for what some Eastern linguists are calling a lolling, intralabial, undiquitial lingual trill, [lll]:

You haven't really won the Gaitǫ̂rēsō until you've been properly snerted, and vice-versa.
The best way to tell when your Mangalitsa or Kodomo needs more oil is when it starts snorting creakily.The creaky-voice snort, [nkr]:

I have read that post-pharyngeal bombulance was used to convey coded mesages over long distances between contations of indentured serfs, after the Church of Mans' Love published a Holy-Royal Bull forbidding the making and using of percussive instrumentation in the almost as Good as New World colonies in the year fifteen fifty-twelve (viz. Inter Crura Sonent Clunes).And of course, the over-long post-pharyngeal bumbulant, [ZZPT]:

How is this a conlang?

Things don't need to be conlangs to be here. Any commentary on conlinguistics could in theory go here, as long it isn't intended on impugning the reputation of a member or any other here, or otherwise creating harm or discord.GamerGeek wrote:How is this a conlang?

Re: Sillybants
What the good doctor said. Plus, Gôtlandish & Tsimpanz áre invented languages. Well, to be compleatly honest, wee ickle sketchockies of invented languages!qwed117 wrote:Things don't need to be conlangs to be here.

Technically, it could be called a WIP piece of Satirical Conlinguistics.

I snert you, sir. Most hirquitalliently!
Would that we might pay our snerts to the original author. Wherever he be. Alas, he must be doing field-work
among the Tsimpanz.
Or in faraway Teleran. Or still farther away...
