A few slang words and vulgarities:

  • diti - v - finger; masturbate
  • dulse per la oios - n - eye-candy
  • manica - n - maniac, fanatic; addict; geek, nerd
  • peta - v; n - fart; break wind
  • pisa - v; n - piss, pee; urinate
  • puta - n - whore, slut, bitch (informal: prostitute; also insult)
    • puto - n - manwhore (informal: male prostitute); sod, bastard (insult)

Dialectal differences

The most prevalent Vascan dialect of LFN is called Vaskaya.

Orthography

Vaskaya's orthography varies from LFN by using "k" for /k/, "y" for /j/, and "c" for /ʃ/. Also, a version of the Arabic script (called "Arabesca") is used in villages throughout the south of the island, and almost exclusively in Goros.

Pronouns

Vaskayan pronouns differ slightly from LFN. Notably, the inclusion of a feminine and masculine third person singular, ela and el, respectively. Also, te is the second person singular vs. tu in LFN.
