Furbish/English Translation

Furby language definitions and translation.

I made some adjustments from the book that came from the original first generation furby since there were some errors.

Translator Usage

Clone this repository. Navigate into the directory with cd path/to/Furbish

Run this command:

node translate.js

You will see this usage information.

translate options [message]
  Options:
    -e  --english    Furbish to English
    -f  --furbish    English to Furbish
    -h  --help       Get usage information.
  Notes:
    Output words surrounded by {} didn't translate directly.

To translate a sentence from English to Furbish run this command:

node translate.js -f "I love to watch the sunset"

kay may-may ay-ay dah a-loh nah-bah
(I love to see big light down)

Examples

English to Furbish

~$ node translator.js -f me worry you no like sunset
kah boh-bay u-nye boo toh-loo dah a-loh nah-bah

Furbish to English

node translator.js -e kah boh-bay u-nye boo toh-loo dah a-loh nah-bah
me worry you no like sunset

Notes

You can also view my reference material directly in the /reference folder.

The Furbish language appears to be very contexual and there are in theory thousands of compound words so I will continually update this project as long as there is continued interest.

It is a work in progress to take it with a grain of salt.

To Do

Implement Synonyms (Eat/Hungry)
