Bahlahob

***Bahlahob*** or Balohob is a new feature planned to be introduced in the v3.0 (Season 3) update. It is the collection of languages of the Blob World, each similar to each other. It is independent of other languages, and follows a unique grammar structure. It gives the base name for a lot of the creatures in Blob World.

## Noticeable Translation

The Bahlahob translation is fairly easy due to the transition between Ancient and Common speak. Ancient speak used many hard-to-pronounced or odd sounds, while the new Common Speak uses more English sounds. The alphabet never changed due to the survivors using the Latin alphabet. The others died away. The Common Speak is translated from Ancient Speak for the names of animals. It's really hard to explain all the cases and grammar, but translation is easy, especially after reading False English from the guidebook.

### Translating Blobworldean Names

There are some reoccurring phrases or terms used in Blobworldean names, for example, the word "false" is used multiple times in names. However, the translation is different. For tentrea, it's the "trea" suffix, and for fugion, it's the "ion" suffix. What does this mean? Well, the common word for false is "Ios." Ion was the adaptation of the word into an animal's name, and thus "ion" is more commonly found, but there are other cases of false. "Trea," as we saw in tentrea, "calman," seen in Varijikocalman, and "iorea" as seen in terms such as the language names of Ioreaingalêȅsh and Ioreazepetiks. Trea means false as in fake, while the common "ios" means false as in wrong. While these two seem synonymous in English, they developed almost completely differently in Bahlahob. So, Tentrea technically means "fake tentacle," and Fugion means "wrong fusion." The tentrea's name can be traced back to 657 ANW (Blob Calendar), where an explorer went far, and ended up in Brown Grove Grasslands, where they noticed a tentrea, and jotted it down in their diary as a "treaotentos." This was adapted from Ancient Speak to Common speak as "tentrea" giving rise to that name. Fugion's name and history remains a mystery. There are documents going back to 15638 CE mentioning Fugion as it had been in use for a while, but the name origin is unknown. Calman, as in Varijikocalman means...off or not right. Typically, false isn't thought of in that sense, but if you think about it, false as a word is used as not right in English a lot. Take for example: "He looked false, as though he was a criminal." It doesn't mean incorrect, and it doesn't necessarily mean fake. He didn't look like cardboard, he looked suspicious. That's where calman comes from, again developing completely differently. The name is actually an imitation of the Crozy-back Pakaljyv's mating calls which sounded roughly like "Qoll-o-Ham!, Qoll-o-Hamm!" Usually they retreat to tall trees during mating season, muffling and distorting their sound to the civillians on the ground. It may have sounded like "Calman! Calman!" And, due to the Crozy-back Pakaljyv looking suspiciously like a crozy while being actually being a ziptic, this could definetely lead rise to the word. So, over all, Varijikocalman means "Jiko's Suspicious Difference" which makes absolutely zero sense, but it was named by Valker Jiko, a survivor, in 1121 ANW, and it might have made sense then. Finally, we get to "iorea." Iorea means "Wrong-fake" or "Total fake." Literally, it means false as we normally use it today. That fact is false! It's not true (incorrect) and made-up! (fake) So, iorea was used then. Iorea is possibly one of the hardest profuse words in Common Speak to pronounce given it looks like it's pronounced "Io-ree," when in fact it's one syllable.

## Distribution of the Languages

It all started when a futuristic Czech-Polish-Slovakian-Slovene-Belorussian mixture language called Bomorav that developed due to different races of Central European survivors. It was spoken across Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania, North America, the Carribbean, and Central America due to long migrations of this civilization. The Bomorav were soon met with the Ziptics and the Crozies, which would change civilization forever.

Fast forward a few thousand years, complex crozy calls and intricate grunts merged with Bomorav to create Kzescrava, the transitional language between Indo-European and Bahlahob. Fast forward a few more, we get a full on Bahlahob language called Kelasyeulc or Alderajelk (Ancient Speak). Due to the widepsread range of the ancient Bomorav, the language couldn't go very far, but the Crozy and Ziptic's influence travelled the globe. The three main groups were created: Kelasyeulc in Europe, Oceania and Asia, Balakanajelk, Across Africa, South Europe and West Asia, and the unique Turiffnöth among the Americas. These languagues would evolve sperately before society re-advanced enough to agree upon the Kammenujelk or Common Speak. This language soon spread due to missionaries to get everyone united. While there were never enough people to start nations, at least the language came about. The Ancient Speak had died, but from it emerged the Common Speak like a phoenix from the ashes. And then, there's Southern Speak. Which is like the tray the ashes are on. Supporting all the languages as they evolved. Wait, that's not right. In reality, it just chilled and didn't change much. So, they're the eraser on the desk next to the phoenix. And its tray. Can't forget the tray.

So, now we have one main language, one strong language, and small, supporting language still spoken among tribes throughout the world. However, you can't keep a language the same worldwide, especially without nations, so different Kammenujelk dialects were formed: The Kammenokammenojelk (Extra Common Speech), the Uraljokos (Ural Mountains), (Haymbard), Turiffnöth (Driffnot), Koulopean (Forested), and Balakanajelk (Southern Speak). Then, there were smaller slangs among those, but that's how they've stayed that way from then on.
