We have people who can not even bother to spell out full proper words in English, somehow I do not think they would try to learn a new language.

We will see! Hopefully people who can spell in English will try this.

Ehm, yeah... English.

Also, it doesn't make sense for numbers like 10 and 11 to have related names, 1 and 11 would make much more sense, like in French and many other languages I'm sure.

It looks nice and well thought out, but instantly changing to a new language will be pretty weird. If it was developed like how languages are, it would be pretty popular. And since Manga is an actual RL thing, it would hard to tell if someone is talking about 7 obby or an obby manga.

Already trying to learn Nahuatl. It's really hard, since it's all a conversion from pictures. I think I'll skip on some language some guy made up.

Well, Hagrid and I think it's a very good idea.

In fact, We have decided to start a fund, Wow, so that you might speard this language amongst the people of Nigeria. You will be there for several months, depending on how many times you are kidnapped. But it'll be worth it. It really will.

:D

That was the first thing I thought too. Great (or not so great) minds think alike!

I think it has to do with the fact that there are not enough words for it to be used in everyday conversation.

Some proposed words:

Fanta (Fan-t-uh) - Farm

Jangles (jane-galls) - Gift or Gifts

Jimmies (Jim-me-s) - Golden Pants

Preliminaries of "no you can fuck right off" aside, you reminded me of this thread I once wrote.
