Takavonai (Language)
Takavonai or “speech of the people” is the language of the Poku Saeruo Degonjo. It is pronounced as tă-kă-vōnăē. The language dates back to the time before the Norka (The Exodus). The language of the Clan also includes Physical Displays.
Language Forms
There are three forms of the language used by the Poku'vonai. But communications is not just about the words, but gestures and mannerisms can alter the meaning of some phrases.
Gestures
These are some of the more common gestures or mannerisms used in conversation.
- baring of teeth - sincerity
- flaring of nostrils - disapproval
- holding an open hand up - peaceful
- holding a clenched hand up - aggression
- tail moving excessively - excitement
- tail still against back - threatened
- tail wrapped around waist - guarded
Common Tongue
This is the colloquial way of speaking, for all normal day to day communications.
Formal Tongue
Formal Tongue is a more archaic form of their language. It would be the difference between modern English, and Old English. It is only used during rituals.
Battle Tongue
Is a shortened way of phrasing things for concise battle commands. It is not for normal conversation use. Example:
| Ten-hut is an American military term that means, “Come to attention!” Wikipedia |
