GOBBLEDYGOOK: USING GOBBLEDYGOOK
THE LANGUAGE OF THE REVELIA With Common as its base language, Gobbledygook mainly uses the same
grammar with a few exceptions around subject-verb-object order. For example,
Gobbledygook is the language of The Revelia. To outsiders, it sounds
for ‘Help me,’ the translation is ‘shemphand ya me,’ literally, ‘Help you me.’

words are different and jumbumbly (confusing). This should give players a

Heckna’s minions will frequently speak a mix of Common and
add to the confusion. Where a word or element of grammar is unspecified, feel

free to use Common words or constructions or make the language your own

because feetsie ends in a vowel. Meanwhile, ‘to kick’ is ‘ta toeboot.’ Toeboot
ends in a consonant so there is no need to add an extra ‘n’. Therefore, ‘I kick’ is
‘Eyes toeboots.’ The same rule applies for the present continuous (be verbing),
past simple (verbed), and perfect participle (having verbed). The future tense
(will verb, going to verb) is formed by the word ‘hill’ plus the infinitive. For
example, ‘the clown will kick’ translates as ‘the korker hill toeboot.’ There is no
difference in the way verbs are constructed depending on who is doing the
action. For example, ‘she kicks’ is ‘jenni toeboots’ and ‘we kick’ is ‘us toeboots.’

NUMBERS IN GOBBLEDYGOOK Gobbledygook speakers love to use numbers to bewilder rubes,
particularly in games of chance.
Common Gobbledygook Numbers between 21 and 99 are constructed by replacing ‘naught’ in the
words for the tens with the word for the single digit number. For example, 42 is
0 naught
forpleen-deuce, and 88 is hackta-toss.
1 ace Hundreds are made by combining the word for the single digit number
2 deuce with bling, for example 200 is deucebling, 300 is tribblebling, and so on. Moola
3 tribble is one thousand and numbers above it are constructed in the same way. For
example, seven thousand, three hundred and sixty two (7,362) is tank-moola
4 plum
tribblebling shillyten-deuce. Luneie (pronounced loonie) is one million and
5 fing follows the same rules as hundreds and thousands.
