Oou: The Insane Language

Sonja Elen Kisa designed Oou, a language intended to, amongst other things, produce an "alienating, intoxicated effect." This and so much more can be explored at Sonja's Linguistic Surrealscape including 1-2-3 Cthulhu!, a streamlined rule-system for Call of Cthulhu and a guide to Speak Klingon Like a Restless Native (via Variaciones en re menor).

Have you ever wanted to outwit those phaser-wielding Trekkies at their own language? Always dreamed of being able to indimidate your goldfish and conquer and pillage its aquarium in the language of warriors with funny ridges glued onto their foreheads? How many times have you found yourself stuck in an elevator again, trying to converse with a native speaker of Klingon who doesn't know a word of English?
