Bethishian

I realized a few days ago that I no longer speak English. Nor do I speak any other language, except for the newly formed one of Bethishian. Learning four new languages in 6 months, on top of the three others I knew already, has led me to begin speaking Bethishian. Since I am the only one who speaks it, here is a user’s guide to some of the common phrases of Bethishian. I have included the English version of the phrase, and then provided my two preferred choices. The (Bethishian, i.e. not necessary correct) pronunciation and language (if any) are in parentheses.
