Basic Pronunciation

Guitarrish is a series of whistles. Only the finely tuned ear can understand a fluent speaker. The language is quite hard to speak even if one has a musical ear. To avoid this, many people simply play the language on an instrument. This allows for anyone with a musical ear to speak and understand the language.

It is 'spoken' by whistling/playing the word(s) one wishes to speak, one letter or note, at a time.

If the note/letter is followed by a "↑", it is whistled an octave higher than it normally would.

History

Guitarrish is a language that is native to The Beatle.


Early in the days of The Beatle, Paul McCartney encountered wild Electric Guitars in some of the Nation's forests. The Guitars spoke a language that is now know as Ancient Guitarrish. the Guitars communicated through notes, but there was no alphabet. The notes would simply convey a feeling of something through their music. THis makes Ancient Guitarrish very beautiful, but hard to understand.

When the Beatle was founded as the Ringo-Harrison Sultanate, George Harrison was able to create a language that both Humans and Guitars can speak and understand, Modern guitarrish.
