Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

In general, I doubt those who categorize their languages as "civilized" or "savage".
I did have a bizarrely similar (to the original poster's) accident about four years ago, in which I slipped over a cookie and somehow twisted my ankle so far that it broke

That'll show them.

That was a decently challenging translation; I decided to make my own idiom ("that will make them leave").

Oh btw, what kind of writing implement can make both filled and 'hollow' rectangles? Is this supposed to be written with a stylus that has one flattened end that permits making scratches with the broad side and thin lines with the narrow side, and a hollowed-out part at the other end?

For reference, Spanish uses, among others "eso les enseñará [su merecido]" (that'll teach them [their due]), "así aprenderán" (that way they'll learn).

I'll borrow the metaphor into Iveriss: Mit dam scael-yr lirnen. ("with that they'll learn")
