Using non English words in Lexigrams

Using non English words in Lexigrams

Question:

quote:
"What if you were using a word or term in one language eg French but you speak English. Is it acceptable to find both English and French words in the original French term? Are we confined to just sticking with the one language to match the original words?"

Answer:
quote:

We are a multilingual people on this planet.
English is a melting pot language containing the words from many different languages down through time.
I personally see no valid reason to exclude any words simply because they are not in English.


For example:
The word "LOVE" is very rare to most folks' names.
What is they want "LOVE" in their name/Lexgram? Adding an "L" or any other letter to force a Lexigram to say what you desire is wrong. However as I said, English is a melting pot language comprised of many languages especially at the etymological levels.
They may not have "LOVE", but may have any of these for example:
amour
amore`
ami
Eros
Agapē
Storge
amado (sweetheart)
amante (sweetheart)
amistad (friendship)
amor (pure love, romantic love)
"Love" as a verb

* amar (to love, to love romantically): Te amo. I love you.
* encantar (indicating strong like): Me encanto escribir. I love to write.
* gustar mucho (indicating strong like): Me gusta mucho este sofá. I love this sofa.
* querer (to love romantically, to want): Te quiero. I love you.

* canción de amor (love song)

Answers to Lexigramming questions, & dispelling misconceptions

In addition to visiting the Archive links please Click on the following Link!
More LEXIGRAMMING MISCONCEPTIONS

Question:

I heard that a name with too many vowels cannot be lexigramed. Is the true?

Answer:

NO IT IS NOT TRUE!
In my over 4 decades of Lexigramming I have seen no reason for such a rule.
CLICK HERE!
HAVING ALL THE VOWELS WORKS JUST FINE!

And here for MORE examples that disprove the letter limits.

http://www.inneryou.info/example_index.htm

No limits on vowels or consonants.

You have the letters...use them!

You do not have certain one?

DO NOT ADD!

And click here!
Any Phrase, Name, Date, et cetera, can be Lexigrammed!

Here are some words for you.
You have a VERY short list compared to many. So as you can see, you cannot (as some have claimed!) get most any word in a dictionary by having all the vowels.
