it might seem like im sending lots of stuff about vennish but really all it
is that im just impatient.

1. Zar c'e amor frawsezh oyr'eedev.
   [?(would)] you love(like) french fries.
2.Zart c'e amor frawsezh oyr'eedev.
    [?(do)] you love(like) french fries.

in vennish "society" (this is of course a conculture) it is common to hear
what we would consider curse words but mean almost nothing to the vennish.

3.Ra-Ce toopih etepen'ef ne trawsht en'ih Isk uhs pedihmen.
   (!)-you stupid F----r (,) stepped on I-own foot. or, Ow you stepped on my
foot.
4.Day'et ne cet d'ee etepene'f.
    God (,) your the(a) f----r. this is almost a compliment.

there is also a polite side to vennish though it is not nearly as widely
used.

5.B'ihtem ne zar c'e ne av'awn trans d'ee sod'eek.
    please (,) [?(would)] you (,) possibly pass the salt.
