... On my journeys, one day I found a nice, little city. Not too many people lived there, and they spoke a strange language.

After trying to speak to some of it's inhabitants, I found out, that they call this language "gharonk".

In the next days, I will try to figure out, how this language works - I really wish I would understand what they try to tell me!

... On my second day here, I found out, that this language isn't that difficult to learn. The grammar seems to be a simplified but quite usual grammar. I try to find out some of the words. One day, after killing a lion, one of the inhabitants of the town returned, telling everyone: "Nag narat umog yargoth!" I tried to figure out, what the single words mean, but I had not enough time. Maybe I can do that later on...

...On the third day in this city, an adventurer came back from his travellings. He looked like he hadn't had something to drink for days; his cloth were dusty and full of sand. I can only guess, what happened to him or which places he visited during the last days.

As soon as I saw him (I was the first to find him - what a luck, what a honor! Without my help, I think he would have died of thirst!) I tried to communicate with him, but he always just repeated the words:

"Orzog! Nag Orzog! Atul! Atul! Nag mob mula! Atul!"

I didn't know, what he meant, but it wasn't of importance at this moment.

After giving him something to drink, he recovered quickly. Maybe I try to talk to him again tomorrow...

.. It's now the forth day here in this town. I wasn't able to find out, how the town is called, but that doesn't seem important to me. More important seems to me to find out more details of gharonk language. I found out that they use some words for some different but similar expressions. Gharonk doesn't seem to distinguish between the word for "I" (nag) and the words for "mine", "my", "me", and so on. That makes the language more simple, and I think it's always clear what it means from the context. Of course, that are only speculations, I'm not quite sure about it at all...

... This is the sixth day. It seems, the inhabitants start trusting me and begin to communicate with me.

I found out about colours and their words in gharonk.

"Red" means "narz", the word for "green" is "buzgob", "orolu" is "gold", "shura" stands for "blue" and "urbum" is the gharonk word for "yellow". Furthermore, I found out the words for "yes" and "no". "Yagla" means "yes", "glub" means "no", but it's also the word for "none", "not", and so on.

I just wonder why they keep on calling me "gar". Did they give me a name?

... It's now my last day of the first week here. From day to day, I am able to talk more and better with the people living here. I like it, the people are nice, I get food and drink. The king, or I'd better say their leader, showed me his "throne". It's more like a place on the floor, where he sits when talking to his people. He pointed with his finger at this place, saying: "Nag mogurz, nag mogurz". I guess, it means something like "my place, my place". I found out many other words, I wrote them all down in a table. Maybe I'll teach this language one day to someone, who is interested in....
