Amiu - When hobbies collide.
Jul. 16th, 2004 12:06 amI haven't done one of these in a while. For those of you who are new to the flist, Amiu is a fictional language I've been developing when I'm bored at work in my spare time.
This morning
chresimos and I were talking about the "My hed iz pastede on yay!" business, and how the catchphrase was translated into various languages. She asked what it would be in Amiu. So:

mlengúnong jáu Róoj!
My head is pasted on, yay!
( Explanation )
So, the phrase might be rendered more literally as "Glue is used on my head, hurrah!"
Also, I worked out how to write "fandom" a long time ago, but never shared it:

Náéem "fandom"
( Explanation )
I believe it was
thatfangirl who asked why "nose" determines emotions. I'm afraid it isn't a very exciting reason: The Amiu-speakers aren't human. They can sense one another's emotional states by pheremones, which they consider part of the sense of smell.
The discussion of Dumbledore and Peter has been fascinating. A summary of points made should be forthcoming.
