Hello!
And Be welcome to my Blog.
Today I'm here to talk about one feature of Akkia that's very important to every speaker.
The use of Rude language is common to the Ifu common level of the language.
It's not formed by vocabulary or just word order.
It's more like a choice of Wording.
For example, if you say: -- "Who taught this how to speak?" talking about a person, you're using Rude language.
Rudeness is expressed also with opinion particles.
So, if you say: -- "Osto sa!", you're using the common level and expressing certainty, but: -- "Wa (tu akata) osto sa!", you're making sure your opinion should be known and that's rude because it's like saying: -- ",... and I think you should know it".
However, the use of "Wa" at the beginning is not always rude.
You can always add "taastaka?" at the end to sound a bit more rude than normal ("why?").
Also, if you use Direct Approach with certain people it's considered Rude language.
It's expected you know to whom you're talking to.
So, if you ask: -- "Adda ka enne tu wa?", that's -- "Who are you?", or: "Enne daka tu wa?" -- is always a way to sound rude, because you're saying you don't know who the person really is, so the person is not important and you don't know how to talk to "it" (sa).
That's important! You can always use "sa/se", the pronoun for things, to sound really rude.
"Adda ka sata wa?", or -- "Who is it?", also can be used to show this.
You can always say: -- "Aytea", for "I'm sorry", so to sound less rude than you are, or: -- "Amalasta (sui)", the honorable level for this. The honorable level is used always when you don't want to sound rude, they are only 6 (six) endings, including the pure form of a Verb (but it's in the Past tense, if in this level).
Actually the expression is very used, to lessen rudeness: -- "Aytea, odgo taastaka?", for "I'm sorry, but why?".
Akkia is a beautiful language, and it's not expected from you to be rude.
Then, you may want to used an expletive to show rudeness, as in: "Ugah tu ba (sa)!", for "You (piece of) shit!".
Expletives are not expected as a rude language, they're normal language.
That's because the use of expletives is considered "ifu", or "common".

Examples –– Tayo(s/les)
–
Twi dul-a. -- It was better this way.
Olaeoh-Ilae, gokã eka twi. -- Reading time, the more the better.
Oze dul-a, fayrée da. -- It was a joke, you can laugh.
Adde ga Oze wa. -- Don't be a joke.
Ealae fayrée da. -- You can laugh (now).
Edda ka Macchtkofiyya mae Bar to wa? -- Is there coffee with milk here at the bar?
Anta ka Shidkatari da wa? -- Who's the initiative (turn)? (flýmma).
Ittaka da huttu Taaspa wa? -- Which is the right way (of doing this)?
Aa, atte,... malammeth suloo atte wa. -- Oh do it, do it as I do.
Iyari, byt. -- Water, please. -- don't forget "iyari" is a Magic Nation's water -- or, use: Ume.
Adde Umeloo wa: Ume ýr Eta Odyer saata dash edät Edetloo ila Eda da wa. Soh da Edeta. -- Be like water: water takes the form of the container which give it form, when it's in there. This is its form.
Note: you need to train speaking because of words which can be similar to another.
Saata Ookalaet tu otkae Meakys to wa? -- Which character you like in this story?
Tuyer Vadungkaelyt! -- You piece of shit!, or -- Vadung! -- Shit!, with no agent or object.
Vadungaus dil-a. -- (He/She) is shit. -- or -- Ugahus dil-a. -- the difference between "ugah" and "vadung" is that "vadung" is used for cow's shit you can find on the ground in a farm, so you have to look to the ground not to step on it.
Mersch te Ugah Tur to wa. -- Look (at) the shit on the ground.
Soh, lutto sae huttu e dil-a. -- On the end it's right, then.
Niyssen, alaes huttu dil-a -- Then, it's all right.

Ifu (or common) language is expected from you.
But well, there are other levels, and it's expected you to learn the next levels.
The second more important is the level named Koodo.
It's used as scientific, and used to show formal language.
But then, a teacher is at work, and so it's expected that a teacher use formal language.
And the student? A student is not at work, except if you receive money to do so -- then, you're a professional student.
The student is going to use informal language, that's simply marking the object.
It's expected that a teacher use the whole of the language.
And this includes being rude sometimes, but using the Indirect Approach to be formal.
You can always say: – "Gawd!" or "Gawdkjung!" (sh), meaning "Repulsive", to talk about a person, so to be rude -- but it's more important you to stabilish a Context to talk about a person than what you say about this (these) person (people).
The word "ki" or "taburýyd" is Context, and you can use it at the beginning to stabilish a Context.
Then, you can draw a line between those liked, and those not.
It's not used much, because you already say what's important first, but it's possible that a beginner won't understand the context and so you'll need to clarify to beginners the Topic and what's related to that Topic.
Topicalizing a person in the presence of the person is always rude.
We may use the Verb at the very end in this situation, not to sound as rude as possible.
If you use a final factual Verb position, you're expected to be talking about facts.
Then, if you say: – "Anthonius, tu (what) (factual final)", that's the case.
The use of "tu" in this example is here to show how not to be so rude -- this is the formal of "you", otherwise use "obba" and you're going to start a fight.
Of course, these examples given are to be used by a fluent person.
But if you're a beginner, sometimes you just need to use a "factual final" to sound more rude.
That's why we use "Aytea", or the (hon) "Amalasta", all the time you could get rude, at the beginning -- a fluent speaker is expected to know how to stabilish a link between moments you want to sound rude, then informal, then formal.
Remember formal language is considered more polite.
Sometimes, being rude is a form of "relief", much usual and considered normal "ifu" common language, but then, if you need to sound more beautiful and use a more beautiful language, there are plenty of resources in language to use.
I hope you're enjoying the reading, and you can comment if you see something you like or just want to get in contact.
That's it for now, and Stay Plugged.
