I figure since the sea animals here (such as dolphins) probably talk differently since sea animals like whales, dolphins, and whathaveyou have this sort of whistling language that it would be a good idea to make an official "language" for them.
This is mostly so that I don't have to keep running back and forth to find threads and reference words, they'll all be in one handy place. If you make a sea animal or a land animal that just knows the language for some reason XD then feel free to reference and use this. I'll add more and more words to it as time goes on and Eeya discovers more of the language.
Harsh sounds like z are rarely if ever used. Remember the language is based on how a dolphin sounds so emphasis on how long a sound is held and the pitch is important.
The words "a" or "an" are never used and is simply understood.
There is no word for "I". The creature's name is simply used in third person. The closest word to "I" would be "This One".
To make a word plural add "iee" to the end of it.
