# NFT: The innaugural unglish word production ceremony, in 4 distinct dialects.

Source: https://unglish.co.uk/iterations/a.html

## Summary

This page presents "unglish," a collection of words offered as NFTs in four dialects, each on a different ethereum-secured L2 blockchain, with the inaugural minting currently open. Each word is shown with its canonical spelling and an IPA pronunciation guide, and it is given its own synthesized voice via the browser's SpeechSynthesis API and its own melody of 2 to 128 notes. Words found to be vulgar appear in red, and words that are among the 10,000 most common English words according to the creator's unnamed "sources" appear on a solid background. The page also offers a way to sponsor a word to help fund the project.

The innaugural unglish word production ceremony, available in 4 distinct dialects.

Preview

🎶 Protip: click the word to make it sing! Then, try the spacebar and arrow keys 🎶

Legend

Big string is the canonical spelling

Little string is the IPA pronunctiation guide

If it's red, that means it's been found to be vulgar. Shame!

If it's on a solid background, that means it's one of the 10000 most common english words according to my "sources". If that's not proof that English is a random walk, I'm not sure what else is.

Each word is given its own voice using the browser's SpeechSynthesis API. Left and right arrows toggle through alternate voices.

Each word is given its own melody of 2,3,4,8,16 or 128 notes. Up and Down arrows will modulate pitch.

Click the word to hear it spoken. Hit spacebar to toggle singing mode (at 120bpm) on and off.

Where am I allowed to use these words?

Anywhere. Maybe the better question is do you want to?

Sponsor a word

You can help to fund and advance unglish in many ways, but one way is to sponsor a word. This iteration has 4 dialects, each on a different affordable, ethereum-secured L2 blockchain. None of that had to make sense to you, btw.
