Forbidden from leaving the Nittany Lion's dominion, the denizens of Nittany Hollow began to experience a shift in their dialect, driven by the omnipresent influence of their feline master...
Some notable changes:
• "oe" is always pronounced as in "shoe" or "canoe".
• "y" is more prominently used as a vowel, one that only makes the "ee" sound. When used as a consonant, it is preceded by an apostrophe ('y). If starting a sentence with consonant Y, it is preceded by an E and an apostrophe (e'y).
• the names of numbers have been completely revised.
• Speakers of Nittanese English tend to avoid contractions whenever possible. "We're" will always be extended to "we are", "I'm" to "I am", "Let's" to "Let us", and so forth.
