INTRODUCTION

THE ANGUISH LANGUISH


English words are astonishingly versatile and could readily be made to
serve a new and extraordinary purpose, but nobody seems to care about
this except SPAL (Society for the Promotion of the Anguish Languish).[1]
In keeping with its lofty ideals and its slogan, ANGUISH FOR EVERYBODY,
the Society is sponsoring this little text, which has three aims:

    1. To improve the public’s understanding of the Anguish
    Languish.

    2. To improve the academic standing of the Anguish Languish.

    3. To improve the social _and_ financial standing of the
    Society.


☛ Policemen and Magicians

A visiting professor of Anguish, Dr. ——[2], who, while learning to
understand spoken English, was continually bewildered and embarrassed
by the similarity of such expressions as _boys and girls_ and _poisoned
gulls_, used to exclaim:

“Gracious! What a lot of words sound like each other! If it wasn’t
(_sic_) for the different situations in which we hear ’em, we’d have a
terrible time saying which was which.”

Of course, these may not have been the professor’s exact words, because
he often did his exclaiming in Anguish rather than in English. In that
case he would say:

“_Crashes! Water larders warts sunned lack itch udder! Effervescent
further deferent saturations an witch way harem, wade heifer haliver tam
sang witch worse witch._”

Dr. —— was right, both in English and Anguish. Although other factors
than the pronunciation of words affect our ability to understand them,
the situation in which the words are uttered is of prime importance.
You can easily prove this, right in the privacy of your own kitchen, by
asking a friend to help you wash up a dozen cops and sorcerers. Ten to
one, she’ll think you said a dozen _cups and saucers_, and be genuinely
surprised if you put her to work cleaning up even _one_ police officer,
let alone all the others, and the magicians, too.

If you think that she misunderstands merely because the two phrases sound
somewhat alike and _not_ because of the situation, read what SPAL’s
Committee on Housewives has to say:

“Presented with a dishes-piled-in-sink situation, several hundred
well-adjusted housewives thought that _cops and sorcerers_ referred
to dishes, but seldom did normal subjects, interviewed under the same
conditions, make the opposite mistake. When they were asked to help us
wash _cups and saucers_, some women consented, some made stupid excuses,
and some told us bluntly to go wash them ourselves, but _practically no
one thought that we were talking about policemen and magicians_.”

[Illustration:

    “_Are empty mustard off mar fate_
    _Are empty catsup off mouse hole._”]


What Anguish Really Is. ☚

The experiments described above, and hundreds of similar ones conducted
by SPAL show that _an unbelievable number of English words, regardless
of their usual meanings, can be substituted quite satisfactorily for
others_. When _all_ the words in a given passage of English have been so
replaced, the passage keeps its original meaning, but all the words have
acquired new ones. _A word that has received a new meaning has become
a ~wart~, and when all the words in the passage have become warts, the
passage is no longer English; it’s ~Anguish~._


Are There Any Good Reasons to Study Anguish? ☚

This is not an altogether silly question, and it deserves the prompt and
unequivocal answer any Anguish Languish enthusiast will give it.

“_Watcher mane, ardor rainy gut raisins toe sturdy anguish?_” he will
say, and will probably give you an impressive list of them which will
certainly include the following:


_1. Anguish is fun._

You and your friends can make a game out of learning Anguish, and you’ll
have fun developing your own style and observing each other’s efforts.
How to begin will be explained later.


_2. Anguish Languish means verbal economy._

If words can be made to do double, triple, or even quadruple duty, it is
obvious that we don’t need so many of them. Wouldn’t it be a comfort to
know that, in the event of some unpredictable disaster wiping out half of
our English vocabulary, we could, if we had learned Anguish, get along
nicely with what we had left?[3]


_3. Anguish helps out in certain social situations._

People who aren’t sure of themselves should learn Anguish. Suppose you
have been asked to dinner by the president of your company and his wife.
Since you haven’t met your hostess, you have spent some time, before
going, thinking up something to say that will really interest her.
Finally you decide to ask, during the dinner:

“Mrs. Bellowell, didn’t I hear that your brother Henry was discovered to
be in collusion with those election crooks?”

The moment arrives, but you no sooner get her attention than you have
sudden misgivings. Too late to change your subject, you slip deftly into
Anguish:

“Mrs. Bellowell ... deaden are hair ditcher broader Hennery worse
dish-cupboard toe bang collision wet dozer liquor-chin crocks?”

Chances are that everyone will be so fascinated by the graceful form of
your question that not even your hostess will attach much importance to
what you’ve asked.

DOILY BOARD CASHES OR WARM!]


_4. Anguish relieves that terrible craving to tell dialect stories._

People who are addicted to telling dialect stories, or chronically
frustrated because they can’t tell them without Scotch brogue or
Brooklynese getting mixed up with Deep South, will be overjoyed with
Anguish. _Anguish is definitely ~not~ a dialect, since it consists ~only~
of unchanged English words which anyone can pronounce._ By imparting
a delicate and indefinably exotic accent to one’s speech, however, it
not only provides a socially acceptable substitute for telling dialect
stories, but adds to one’s personal charm.[4]


_5. Anguish improves your English._

As your Anguish vocabulary increases, you’ll find that your English
vocabulary does, too, but you must be careful not to mix them
up—something which people orphan do when they begin to use words
accordion to the way they sound rather than how they’re spelled. Words
which are rare in English are often common enough in Anguish, so you
have new opportunities to see them. Suppose you’re spending a week-end
reciting nursery rhymes in Anguish to a happy group of children or
immature adults, and come across _SING A SONG OF SIXPENCE, A POCKET FULL
OF RYE_. In Anguish, this, of course, is _SINKER SUCKER SOCKS PANTS,
APOCRYPHAL AWRY_. This will give you an unexpected chance to use the last
two words.

You’d be surprised to know how many people haven’t the faintest idea
what a xyster is until they hear a SPAL member talking about his fodder,
murder, broader, and xyster. This makes them want to look _xyster_ up.
When they do, they find that, although _xyster_[5] in Anguish, may mean
_sister_, in English it’s nothing in the world but a common raspatorium.
Now raspatoria, and, therefore xysters are important surgical
instruments, nice to know about before being scheduled for an aberration.

Speaking of xysters, hominy people know what _higglery_ is? Very few, yet
it occurs in the Anguish Languish version of something as well known as:

    “Murder, mare argo art toe swarm?”
    “Yap, mar doling dodder,
    Hank yore clues honor higglery larme
    An dun gore norther warder!”

While you’re looking up _higglery_, you might find _larme_, just a few
pages away in Webster’s Unabridged.

[Illustration: “—_wail, debt worse inner laest wake off Dismember—nor,
inner foist wake off Janizary—Doctor Smatters (haze mar surging) gummier
fun cull wan moaning, an set: ‘Gut moaning, Messes Huffywate, heresy
ladle bat noose furrier—yore garner heifer heifer nodder aberration.’
Wail, whinny set ~debt~—” etc., etc._]


_6. Practical Anguish._

Anguish can be used for group study at parties and entertainments; as a
psychological test of something or other (we don’t know just what),[6]
and as practice material in Speech and Typing classes.


How Can One Learn Anguish? ☚

1. Read everything in this text aloud, and preferably in a group. Make a
game of it.

You’ll find it easier to understand Anguish when you _hear_ it than when
you see it. If you have trouble, listen to someone else read it to you,
preferably someone who doesn’t quite know what he’s reading. This often
gives the best effect. Watch what happens when the listeners understand
better than the reader.

2. Don’t try to read too fast and be sure to give all words their
usual English pronunciation, regardless of the new meaning the word
has acquired. An accurate pronunciation and good intonation are most
effective.

3. Don’t worry if you seem to have suddenly acquired a slight accent;
your friends will tell you that this is most attractive.

    [1] The members of SPAL are the persons who have written to
    the author concerning the Anguish Languish, especially the
    thousands who wrote to request copies of LADLE RAT ROTTEN
    HUT after Arthur Godfrey’s inimitable reading of it, on his
    television show. The society is very poorly organized, in
    fact few of the members even know they belong. There are no
    officers, no meetings, no convention, and, worst of all, from
    the point of view of the author and founder, no dues.

    [2] This isn’t his real name, nor is it intended to be the name
    of any other Anguish Languish professor, living or dead.

    [3] Whether or not such a calamity is likely to occur seems
    entirely beside the point; in times like these one should be
    prepared for any emergency.

    [4] _ANGUISH ANONYMOUS_, an organization of former dialect
    story tellers, sponsored by SPAL, can be called in difficult
    cases.

    [5] The plural of _xyster_ in Anguish, is _cisterns_. See, in
    this book, the story of _Center Alley_.

    [6] A research psychologist plans to use _Anguish Languish_
    to provide data for a study entitled: “_Individual and Sex
    Differences in Configurational Perception of Artificially
    Contrived but Phenomenologically Comprehensible Auditory
    Stimuli._” This sounds as if it should mean something.

       *       *       *       *       *

The first item in this collection is a story familiar to all
readers—LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD. Or, as you can probably say now in
Anguish, LADLE RAT ROTTEN HUT.

_Heresy ladle furry starry toiling udder warts—warts welcher altar girdle
deferent firmer once inner regional virgin._ This sentence means: “Here
is a little fairy story told in other words—words which are altogether
different from the ones in the original version.”
