Death or Cake?

Choose! Death or Cake? 

"Cake, of course." 
"We're out of cake. Now you will have death!"
"Nooo....!" 

Or something like that. I probably ruined the joke. If you want a better, more accurate version, ask Britty. She's the one who told me the joke in the first place. :D 

Oh yes. So, for a while I've been wanting to put up an excerpt from the language I made up, aka Lasitian. Well, it's not really an excerpt... or a language. It's more of a code that looks complex to an outsider, but in actuality is very simple. I'm not going to tell you the code of course, but I will explain the rules. 

1. All words must be treated as if they are capitalized. 
(i.e. I Love To Draw Pictures)
2. You only change the first letter of each word and every other after that into Lasitian. The only exception is with words with four lettered words and even lettered words. Here are the examples:
1 letter word: I (just use I) 
2 letter word: Me (use both M and e)
3 letter word: Him (use only H and m)
4 letter word: That (use T, h, and the ending t)--also the exception with translating
5 letter word: Tiger (use T, g and r) 
6 letter word: Better (use B, t, e and r)--usually with an even amount of letters in a word, you will end up using the last two letters in the word. You still use the first letter and every other after that, but you also use the last letter. )
3. The pronunciation of Lasitian is pretty much the same as Japanese. (A-'ah', E-'eh' I-'ee' O-'oh' U-'ooh' )

Hopefully you understood that. I'm still not going to give you the actual translator, but this is something translated into Lasitian:

Ojiru oen bevi dazetanuruza bezejazen. Rashtava, ojiru oen dazetanuruza avija ras eru ezija. Rade rafumijavite? Veru soja evi azataru edemzi kiza roviru yade eru jeruja--rade kija onuja roviru ezija rade oton vevija bemshta kita ras eru eziru. Ras damzaru, ki soviza kijajazaru nivin anuru ojiru beruze amzi jejarude. Ezija oen oes im date yajiza eru soviza ejiyen kivija ojiru... bevi ezite veru sovi jenushta evi eru jeyeteteye. Veru kruza ki sovita. Eru nijiza ezija vejita anuru im yaruta ojiru sojateye oruvanuva. Oe nivija ronuru eru jeruja sovita, jeja oe bejita ojiru oeja. Ava sovita oen evi anuru raziden romiva. Rade raru fadevite oete berujijifu. Eru rateva fadevite vevi date favinutava enunnuru ezin kin veruta. Eru fadevite ezija oe oviru... ava oviru, kiza ava manuvite yade jejiye roruru.
