"La Fabrique de Lettres" This is my own version of the French Letter Factory. Boy, French is very complex. Making the characters & thinking of their traits is a lot harder. But never mind that; this is all I can think of. If you like the character traits that I made, great! If not, can you tell me who I need to fix & what better trait each of the letters you criticized needs to have? Anyway, here are the letters. A, B: Same. C: He will have H's color, but he will crunch carrots (carotte). When he crunches & chews, he makes his sound. D: Same as T. (danse) E: Same, but his common French E sound sounds like he is confused about what he can hear (entendre), which is good enough. F: Same, but instead of wings, he can be a rocket. (fusée) He can fly & make his sound while rocketing. G: Instead of lifting weights, he plays the guitar (guitare). When he strums, he makes the /g/ sound. H: Same as Spanish. Sorry guys, I tried finding a French synonym for silent that starts with H, but there’s not any. Finding anything silent that starts with a French H did not work. So I gave up & decided to use the Spanish H. He will be like Silent E in the French Talking Words Factory. I: Same J: Same as Spanish. Let's just say that J likes to play games (jouer à des jeux) & laughs by making her /ʒ/ sound. K: Same L: Finding a trait was hard; none of these usual /l/ sound things like lollipops, lemons, or lullabies in French start with L. So I made L a cat that licks milk. (lèche le lait) M, N, O, P: Same Q: Lime-green, but he's going to have a different trait. He's going to be a bowler. When he knocks the bowling pins (quilles de bowling) down, the /k/ sound is heard. He can make his sound by acting or imitating the pins being knocked down. Boy, that was also hard, but it's all figured out. R: She will look like Tickety, which shows that she will resemble an alarm clock (Réveil). She likes to tell time, & she also rings her sound. S: Same. (Serpent) T: Same as Spanish. (Tambour) U: Oh man, that was impossible. Sorry guys, I've been finding any good trait for the /y/ sound that starts with the French letter U, but nothing is good. So I gave up & decided to make my own. Let's just say that U like things tidy & hate messes & gross things. When U finds anything dirty, nasty, unclean, grubby, messy, or untidy, he makes the /y/ sound when grossed out. V: Same W: Same as Spanish. & yes, French never uses the W a lot. Except for foreign words. X, Y, & Z: Same And since there are so many sounds & digraphs, look inside. The French L'usine de mots parlants (the French version of The Talking Words Factory.) There will be a bunch of machines. The Sticky Vowels area will still be a lot different. There will be a vowel playground. Where all vowels A, E, I, O, U, & Y play. But each piece of equipment can change the vowel. The slide (only for E's) can give vowels acute accents. The seesaw (for A's, E's, & U's) can give vowels grave accents. The swingset (for E, I, U, & Y) can give vowels trema accents. The merry-go-round (for all vowels) can give vowels circumflex accents. Sometimes, the monkey bars (for A & O) can make brand-new vowels. A & O can play on the monkey bars with E; they can swing until they get stuck together as one new vowel. & sometimes, when any of the vowels are called, a called vowel leaves the playground, jumps down the tube, & gets picked up like how sticky vowels are transferred & dropped off for a word. Sometimes, if two vowels or three go down the tube, they get together to form a digraph with a new sound & still get transferred. Yes, vowels alone or together can make a different sound (for example, I can make the sound of Y). The letter duo machine & the letter sound changing machine will still be the same as my fan-made complex word complex. The silent letter machine will be like the silent E machine, but only now with all letters (except H, because H is mostly silent). The Nasal Vowel machine will be like my fan-made Bossy R machine, but instead of R's, it will be N's or M's. The digraph mixer will be like the big H mixer but won't focus on H. H can gain the ability to speak when paired with a C or a P. The digraphs will be CH, GN, & PH. But, however, some digraphs like CK, CQU, & SC require sharing. The C & K share their sounds when they're together. The C & Q can share their sounds when they're together, standing next to the silent U. The S can share its sound with soft C when they're together. There's also a new machine where new-shaped letters are made. If A/O & E are stuck together, they first leave the playground, go to the letter changer, get merged & fused together as one, & then come back as Æ/Œ. & after carrot-crunching C gets turned into snake C, they either have a choice to stay as their new looks & go to the word where soft C is reserved, or go to the letter changer to have their bottoms stretched into cedillia to become Ç & get transferred to the word that calls for Ç.
Credit to everyone. Boy, French is a lot tougher than I thought. So what do you think of my French Letter Factory? I worked so hard on it.
