We all know many martial arts have terms for movements in the language in which the art originated. What about a collective lanuage for all the words martial artistis use. Words describing the feelings, training techniques.

 

What would you call the language marial artists speak to each other?

You'de have to establish a few universal words that all martial artists can relete to.

 

A good place to start would be..... Wattaaaah!!! :grin:

 

Translation = "Take that you brute"

Since we have to kiai really loud after every technique, in this new language we all have to speak very loud and kiai after every sentence.

 

WHAT ABOUT THAT, EH??? KIAI. :grin: :grin:

Well, I guess I could explain it best in story form: I'm in the backyard having a barbecue with my martial arts buddies when someone asks my wife where I am. She simply replies "oh, he's in the backyard talking chop!"

I like pizzaboy's idea. It'd be the only language in the world where punctuation is pronounced, and very loudly at that. :smile:
