| HL is one of the oddest consonant clusters to start any name or word with; hlots of us hlive with it. |
Hlanguage
There's always someone tongue twisting with the HL thing.
Here are hlots of HL tonguetwisters. All of these are in
Czech. If you can supply some in another language I'll be
more than happy to add them to this page.
Can you write some sentences in Czech with the HL
words? I can -- here, take a look:
Hloupy hlodavac z hlasity hlas byl hledal hlavne
pro hladky hlazeni, ze hlasatel byl hlasil do hlediste.
A stupid rodent with a loud voice was looking mainly for a
smooth caress, the announcer reported to the auditorium.
Hlidejte moc pro hlodaji na hladina hlinik hlaven!
Be on guard for gnawing on the surface of aluminum
barrels!
Hlodavac mate hlad hluboky a hlucny v jejich
hltan!
The rodents have a deep, noisy hunger in their gullets!
Na hlavicka hlasovejte tvuj hledsko.
On your letterhead vote your point of view.
Nemate hluchy, hlavni vec, ze je hloubime
hlodavac do hlina!
Don't be deaf, the main thing is that we sink rodents into
the earth.
Cute right? If you have a similar sentence in some
other Hlanguage then let me know. Please provide the
English and the HL words, thanks.
Mr. Karel Kysilka, who operates the Czech Surnames
and Towns webpage, set me this:
Dobry vojak si hledi hledi a hlavne hlavne.
A good soldier cares mainly for the scope and the
barrel. (pre) Explantion of the words: 1) hledi -- he seeks,
he cares for -- from the verb hledet -- to seek or to care
for 2) hledi -- is a part of the barrel by which one aims, a
rifle has a scope and a beat. 3) hlavne -- mainly 4)
hlavne -- genitive case of hlaven -- the barrel.
Here are two more:
"O, hle, hlohu," hlesly hlasem hliza a hlavka
hlodane hladovym hlodavcem.
"Oh, see, hawthorn," uttered a bud and a cabbage head,
being gnawed on by a hungry rodent.
Hlupaku, hlomozil hluchonemy hlemyzd na
hladine hliny hlenem pokryte.
You, stupid, roared a deaf and dumb snail on the
clay-earth surface covered in phlegm. He also sent me
this one -- he keeps thinking them up:
Hle, hlubokym hlasem hlaholim: Hlavacova
hloubava hlavinka hleda hlavniho hlasatele!
See, my how voice sounds: Hlavac's meditative head
looks for the main speaker!
And I should scream near the top of my lungs -- "Here I
am -- Here I am! I'm the main speaker!"
Well, I am the webmaster here -- doesn't that sort of
make me the main speaker?
Vojtech Bekarek of Oloumoc CR sent me this:
Hlavni hlavoun hledal v Hlohovci hladoveho
hlodavce. Hle, hledim hluboko do hlavne hlidace.
Hloubavy hlemyzd hlenem hladil hladinu hladke
hliny. Hloucky hlodavcu hlodaly hlizy. Hloupost?
Hlas hlucneho hledace hlidal hlusinu na hlubine.
Now I just have to figure out what it means. You see,
they don't have to really make sense -- they're called
'nonce' stories, or even tongue twisters. Com'n folks,
send in as many as you can.
