Efren’s common sayings

Efren isolated it’s self from he rest of the world for over 200 years. During this isolation they developed a few different idioms and sayings. Some are just extremely old and sounds odd to the rest of the world. Some also have to do with the betrayal that caused them to isolate themselves. So here are a few.   The ones unique to Efren are   Don’t be a Uska dud - Don’t lie, be a traitor, or betrayer.   Uska infected - Some one that has been known to lie or to fix everything to their benefit.   Uska shake - a greeting that is half hearted, or not completely meant     Now some of the others that are just really old that have kept alive all through Efren.   May a terellas cross your path. - May your journey be safe and blessed. It is mostly used along the harbors and rivers. There is also a huge use of this saying in the heavy wooded areas of Efren. When used in the forests it is more used as a goodbye.   A curly Firhusk cloak. - Has a few meanings. When said of a criminal, it means they are to be put to death. Other times it means that the person died of mysterious death.   Zilzzeld- exhausted, burnt out ect either physical magically or mentally. Example would be - That test zilzzeld me.   Up the draglet - meaning not feeling well or needed to see a medic.   May you swallow dragon fire - is an insult in wanting the person to hurt. Not many in the other places say this as it fell out of fashion when on Laflinton several young men dared each other to eat it and two ended up dying as a result.   Whaffling bedspawler - is some one who either keeps jumping from one romantic interest to another or one that has several affairs.
