Analysis of Wonders of a Conlang



“Flintle lan lorkle
Zinzin in twe, nerggul
Cuquip huishpa
Zinterrbahn uva.

A brepon enrepsma,
Wisp wautu,
Vinko a polee

Conta la shapur
Gone,
A match
Extinguished.

About this poem

Written in 1825 by a man under the pseudonym “Brenk La Foulier”, this poem was manufactured to express how the wonders of love can be spoken without being understood. If one is to read the lines, it sounds like complete gibberish. But if one is to *read* the lines, the true meaning starts to unveil itself.
