HAHA

Oh great peoples, hear dnephi! For it is a most true and sad fact that this aforesaid SDC language is indeed- alas that it be so! a most foully developed form of our own native tongue, the tongue which we all love most deeply! Alack, that it be so defiled by such vulgar speech! Mine own heart is moved to greatest anger at the most dreadful thought of this destruction of our mother tongue, and the angels weep for it.

As thou desirest.

Cleave ist one of the few words which hast two definitions which are antonyms-cleave unto something is to hold tightly to it.  Cleave something is to cut it in half.  Funny, ist it not?  I apologize for my abhorrent language.
