FIRST THEME
NAMES OF NATIONS AND RIVERS
INTRODUCTION
In Usik,in order to form proper names,both of places,geographical accidents and of people,for instance,there are three systems.
The first one has to preserve the names and keeps to the etymological translation.
Mentioned system is only applied and performed for the reader´s curiosity and as we have said,to conserve the essence of the name.
The second systeme,the one that interest us for an international language,is based on simple keys.Let us call this PRACTICAL SYSTEM
A third system regarding proper names would be possible,both of cities and PERSONAL ones,since Usik in these cases admits the translation or the adoption of a new name.
NATIONS.-PRACTICAL SYSTEM
The nations and countries are formed in Usik based on the extension in square kilometres the nation or the country has,so that the pupil will only have to know this fact and then translate the number which indicates the square kms.into letters.
Let us see an example.-Let us suppose we want to know how to say CHINA in Usik.
Steps:
1.-Let uss find out the square kms China has and which are 9.500.000
Then we separate the number and we translate:
9=Tou
500.000=Gin
2.-Then we link both 9-500.000=TOUGIN
So CHINA=TOUGIN
Let us see other examples:
BOLIVIA(1.100.600 sq.kms)or which is the same 1-100-600=BABIKI
CUBA(114.600 sq.kms)=114-600=BAFKI
RIVERS.-PRACTICAL SYSTEM
The rivers in Usik are formed according to their length(course)and proceeding the same way as for the countries:
Let us suppose we want to know how to say in Usik the river
MISSISSIPPI
First,let us find out its length.3.800 kms
Then we translate the number 3-800 into letters
3=Dai
800=Mi
Then MISSISSIPPI=DAIMI
FORMATION OF MOUNTAINS PEAKS;PRACTICAL SYSTEM
The names of the mountains and other height denominations are formed knowing the height and translating into Usik
Example:
Teide=3718 metres=Dailam
Llullaiyaco(Chile)=6723 metres=Keuled
Gauri Sankar(India)=7846 metres=Leibok
Nanga Perbat(India)=8116 metres= Maebak
FORMATION OF SEAS,OCEANS,LAKES,ISLANDS
According to their surface(extension)
Majorca(Spain)=3618 square kms.=Daikam
Atlantic Ocean=81.600.000 sq.kms=Aebkin
Titicaca Lake=8300 sq.kms=Maedi
PRACTICAL SYSTEM TO FORM NAMES OF LIVING PEOPLE
Let us remember that the practical system does not apply any etymological translations but offers keys to form new names by starting from data.
In order to form names of people and surnames we shall work like this:
1.-Let us find out the last three numbers of his/her I.N.D.(Identity National Document) or passport.
2.-Let us find out the date of birth
3.-We shall link the groups of numbers that make up the day and month of birth and which will form the first part of the surname.To them,we´ll link the last two numbers of the year of birth to form the second part of the surname.
Let´s see an example:
A person whose three last I.N.D.numbers are 623 will be named KED which is the way 623 is read.If his date of birth is 08-10-46 we´ll form of the day and themonth:810=Ma.
To this,we link the year of birth which in this case is 46=ok and which leaves us 810 and 46,that is Ma and Ok,all linked Maok.
That means that Ked Maok is a person born on 08-10-46 and with three last I.N.D. numbers are 623
Now let´s suppose a person with the last three numbers 233 and birth dae 07-05-40
His name will be 233=Said and his surname,takin into account that we have to form two groups of numbers of his birth date,leaving out the zeros on the left,which will be 75 =Eig and 40=o,all linked Eigo
So his complete name and surname is Said Eigo.
Of course the ending of the surname reveals us the age of the person.
PRACTICAL SYSTEM TO FORM NAMES OF GODS OR MYTHOLOGICAL PEOPLE
The names of mythological people are formed by translating what they represent.
Let´s see two clear examples:
How do we call in Usik the goddessess Diana and Aphrodite?
Let´s find out what each of them represents and then we´ll translate.
Diana is the goddess,guardian of the forests.
In Usik to guard is Kea(n) and forest Tis
Then
Diana= Keatis
Aphrodite is the goddess of Love and Beauty
In Usik Love=Lieb
And Beautiful=Bel
Then
Aphrodite=Liebel
The meanings of mentioned representations can be found in the Usik Dictionary
THE BASIC COLOURS OF USIK
Key for the formation of thousands of tints
When the light strikes an object,it reflects luminous waves whose chromatic value is conditioned to the length of the waves.These waves affect the retina and produce sensations of colour.
Basically there are 7 colours of the solar spectrum:
Red=Ham
Orange=Daem
Yellow=Flab
Green=Tim
Blue =Laus
Indigo=Kei
Violet=Feu
Then there is White which is the result of superposition of the primary ones and Blak(Nu in Usik)which is the absolute absence of colour.
In Usik we also deal with Brown(No)Grey(Go) and Pink(Jim)
The primary ones are RED,YELLOW AND BLUE.The rest are obtained by mixing them
These are the colours which the reader or pupil can usually use in every day life,but science and technology need to name the thousand of existing tints.
The tint determines the huge range of different colours.An Indian of the Amazone for example has different names for every green because of the diversity of green found in his natural habitat.
So takin into account that in every chromatic concretion,as we have said before,there
Are a great many tints.But,what to call each of then?
The European nomenclature which sorts out the problem is based on DIN 16.539 norm which is the formula to design colour tints.
So,for instance,the tint R50A20 is indicative that in the printing process the surface of the lithographs is covered at a rate of 50% Red to 20% Blue.
Obviously,mentioned nomenclature is not very useful for the layman in his every day language,but is of course highly appreciated by the technician.
PRACTICAL SYSTEM TO NAME DIFFERENT TINTS
Let´s take as a base the previous example R50A20 and change the order of the terms like this 50R20A and then we continue with the tranlation of the numbers into letters and behind each group of numbers will put the initial of the concernig colour in Usik
In this way:
50=U………………………………………Red=H………………..20=E…………………..Blue=L
Resulting therefore that the TINT R50A20 is read and written in Usik UHEL,and this word perfectly indicates the proportions of the colour,or rather the tint is given to us by the described combination,and being completely different for any other tint which has identical colours but with a different proportion rate.
So for example UHAL equals 50% Red and 10% Blue
PERSONAL PRONOUNS
Usik´s personal correspond with the five most international vowels
A(10)E(20)I(00)O(40)U(50)
A |
I |
E |
YOU |
I |
HE |
O |
WE |
U |
THEY |
Any of these pronouns involve the verb TO BE,according to the word which they join is either a human being or a thing
Ex. An= a man
Then Ana= I am a man
The pronouns always go behind the noun,no matter what kind of noun it is.
A thing
House=Dom
Then
Doma=I am at home
If we add an I to these pronouns,apart from the third person singular which adds an O,we will have formed the possessives when they accompany nouns and the indirect objects when they accompany verbs
Ex.-Dom=Home
Domai=My home
Len=To bring
Lenai=Bring me
Domio=His home
Examples:
Give me a cigarette
Gibai suen
Give him a packet of cigarettes
Gibio beksu
This is my house
Das domai
She brings your packet of ccigarettes
Lenki beksei
Kiss me
Linai
Linai=kiss me;formed by Li=Lip……..(i)N=In…………….and Ai=me
Let´s review a little !
This is my wife and she lives in Cuba
Das nikai u leb Bafkin
Your lips are very red
Lisei hamun
Our house is very beautiful
Domoi belun
I am a man and you are a woman
Ana un anke
Your wife is in my house
Nikei domain
All human beings love peace
Kulhi liebak
I am Ked
Keda
What´s your name?
Nam ta?
Besides,the letter K(6)is used to form the femenines and goes at the end.Only in she and they(she in plural)Ki and Ku,it goes in front
So,by adding an I,as we have said,we´ll have:
AI |
MY,MINE,ME |
EI |
YOUR,YOURS,YOU |
IO |
HIS,HIM |
KIO |
HER,HERS |
OI |
OUR,OURS,US |
UI |
THEIR,THEIRS,THEM |
