"bladvak" means "axe" in Gobbledegook!

And that is my contribution to the journaling community. For the day, at least!

	Really! What for? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	scamander 2008-11-27 06:14 am UTC (link)
	Just because! I like magical creatures a lot and the ones you can talk to are the best!! Just have to understand them, right? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gogoblins 2008-11-27 06:17 am UTC (link)
	Well, I wouldn't exactly call a goblin a 'creature,' especially if you don't want to get a bladvak to the--any body part, really. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh no, but they're not animals. Beings, I assume would be a more correct term! I've just been learning from a book, and Peter, he works at Gringotts, he helps me some. How are you learning! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well, I'm interning in the Goblin Liason offices so there's a lot of--well, they don't really come to us, but there's a lot of going to the bank and other places and~~--I almost started a revolt last week!~~ it's just me really. Not a requirement or anything, because most goblins speak English or--er, human, as they like to call it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh! That sounds like a really fun job! Have you tried meeting with goblins outside of the British system? There's a colony in Africa, who deal with the diamond trade. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Зайчик мой means bunny in Russian! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	gogoblins 2008-11-27 06:15 am UTC (link)
	That's interesting! Written Gobbledegook kind of looks like that, but I'm no where near good enough to attempt it in public, yet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It took me like 10 minutes to copy that out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's not too bad! Are you just learning? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yes! учитель Wilkes is helping me. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh! Well that's very nice of...Mr. Wilkes? Is that what it means? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Teacher Wilkes, I think. Yes, it's very nice of him! I need to learn more Russian so the ballerinas in the company stop making fun of me and calling me a whore. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Did you arbitrarily pick that as the word of the day, or has someone gone after you with a "bladvak" today? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	gogoblins 2008-11-27 06:25 am UTC (link)
	Little bit of both. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yes, yes you would. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I could probably find you one for cheap. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	~~Yes that's-~~ I...am probably attempting to research some cases for this--there's a goblin named Faldgar who wants to sue a bakery for stealing his great-great-great grandmother's cupcake recipe and I need to find evidence of what he's accusing and. --So just boring stuff. What do you have in mind? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mundungus 2008-11-27 07:28 pm UTC (link)
	Uh, nothing like that. I have a hunch though, and it says we need to go to Manchester. ~~There's always football hooligans to barter stuff off of~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)
