The Hoobah Boobah language is one of the most difficult on Earth. However, the words for things having to do with office and school work are fairly easy for English speakers. All the Hoobah Boobah words for office supplies are, in fact, taken from the English language, with just a few changes in spelling and pronunciation. Below are a few examples:
- Paper clip: (in a shouting voice) "Paperrrrrrrr Cleeeeep!"
- Paper: (as you might imagine, this is pronounced "Paperrrrrrrrr!" in a shouting voice; the 'r' sound at the end of the word is like the sound of a very loud cat's purr)
- Pencil: (this word needs to be screamed) "Penceeeeeeel!"
- Computer: (Shout each syllable separately) "Com-put-orrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"
- Desk: (make your voice as low as possible, and hold out the 'e' sound for 10 seconds) "Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesk." The word is pronounced just as it is in English, except that the 'e' is held out for a really long time, as described.
- Trash Can: (the 'r' in trash is rolled, like the r in Ireland or Scotland) "TrashKanTrashKanTrashKan" (even though it seems like you're talking about 3 trash cans, you're really just referring to one trash can. If you were talking about 3 trash cans, here is what you would say: "TrashKanTrashKanTrashKanTrashKanTrashKanTrashKanTrashKanTrashKanTrashKan"
