German place-names rendered into English (morphologically reconstructed with attention to ultimate etymology and sound evolution processes).

by u/topherette

By request (the 'revenge' for the recent germanisation of England map

Using many different etymological dictionaries as sources, it was attempted to make 'plausible'-sounding English renderings of German place-names. These were largely based on actual (shared etymology) place-names in England. For example Colne (from Latin Colonia) is found in a few places in England, including in the last part of Lincoln. Minchin is based on villages like Minchinhampton. Wilmshaven is based on older forms of Wimblington (also derived from 'William'). There's a village called Appledore in England too, of exactly the same origin as Apeldoorn in the Netherlands.

For names of Slavic origin, rather than revisit then reconstruct from shared Proto-Indo European roots (this time!), I tried to figure out how anglicisations might have developed in a similar way to the current germanisations. This was similarly difficult to trying to guess how German names might have developed from Celtic names on the last map!

; send me ❛ brush ❜ for my character’s reaction to your character running their fingers through my character’s hair.

          ◤ ϟ ϟ ◢ — — 

                                 ( sometime during the drive in film, tommy had, rather                                    unfortunately, passed out. it was sometime between                                  when the main dude managed to kiss the main girl                                   before going to do some main plot stuff. — he hadn’t                                   been paying attention honestly. he was more distracted                                   by watching her and watching her face, the way her                                    eyes lit up with certain bits, or the way her lips would                                   move when she would say something. the ever changing                                   colours of her skin, burning brighter when he had been                                   slick enough to slide his arm around her. when she                                    blushed, he realised a moment later.

                                   and then sometime after a bit, he had slumped against                                   her, curling up, resting his head in her lap, falling into a                                   more peaceful rest. and sometime after the film ended,                                   when isserley was supposed to be taken home, he had                                   started snoring. )

                                                    ❝ pst! tommy, hey tommy! ❞ 

                                 ( and there was no answer from the boy, no words but                                   a shifting fear that found his face. a twist in his expression,                                   and a soft whimper. rainbow fingers brushing through                                   white hair, trying to comfort the fear on his face, trying to                                    wash the anxiety from the creases of his eyes. and she                                   managed to push most of them away, from his face, but                                   at the expense of waking him up. green eyes snapping                                   open, wide and frightened. and with a blur, he was up,                                     ready to fight. until he saw the shimmer and brightness                                   of a rainbow, isserley’s own wide eyes staring at him. and                                   with his hands lowering, he let out a soft breath of relief,                                    and let loose a false smile. as if his reaction to her touch,                                   his subconscious waking him from peace to greet him                                   with fear, had never happened. he shifted back in the seat,                                   and looked at his phone, laughing nervously. )

"Look at me, I'm Isserley, lousy with virginity--"

[happymanners]

Oh my! They are beautiful! Would pointing out their color be... racist--? Why, Mr. Bingley's not quite sure!

          "--Oh! Ahum--! Hello-- there!"

That wasn't quite right; there's a pause in that greeting where there shouldn't be. But there's also a rainbow lady on Earth where (under previous notions of the human race he'd generally accepted as universal truths) there shouldn't be. Any greeting at all is something of an accomplishment! Never mind he's not sure what he's saying hello for--they're both perfect strangers to each other. Really, it was a natural (if not, faintly panicked) reflex. But he pulls himself up by the ol' zygomaticus major! Regardless of a person's appearance, they deserve hospitality!

9: forehead kiss

" H-Hey, you okay...? "

 Kneeling beside her Tony reached out to tap her luminescent shoulder; no pun intended (after-all she was practically a rainbow herself) but she was looking....blue. Tony wasn't exactly what passed as a people-person, but he was attempting to blend-in and from his limited knowledge it seemed anyone would have stopped to help another in distress.

 Taking hold of her arms he stood, lifting her with him to place the girl on her feet. The breeze stirring her hair into his face Tony found himself leaning slightly in order to brush his cheek against her soft locks. 

  Lips brushed the bright skin of her forehead as the teen moved his head against hers. Eyes closed as he leaned by her ear. 

  "What happened?"
