Part 1: Louis Armstrong
Louis was born on August 4, 1901 in a poor part of New Orleans. He became a popular musician in the early 1920s when he left New Orleans for Chicago and played with Oliver's Creole Jazz Band. In 1929, Armstrong went to New York where he performed at Connie's Inn in Harlem. Armstrong created his first hit record in 1929. Jazz was becoming really popular and Armstrong was the leader of it. He was known for his "scat" singing and what he could do with the horn. His music had a strong impact on swing and big band music.
Part 2: Dialect
My dialect comes from a small colony on the northern most tip of Canada. The people of this colony are called NorthernColonyCanadians (NCCs). Their dialect is hard to pronounce and understand. These are the following rules so you will better understand their dialect:
Grammar:
1. NCCs always talk in the third person.
2. NCCs add an SA on the end of every word to show emotion.
3. NCCs are always asking questions, therefore every statement ends with a question mark.
Pronunciation:
1. A's become U's
2. ing's become ed's
3. l's become r's
Words:
1. Flerp means they are very happy.
2. Zionk means they are nervous.
3. Srammed means eating food really fast.
Part 3:
An NCC lady by the name of Nan is a huge Louis Armstrong fan. They two of them decide to go to a cozy resturant to get to know each other better.
"Herrosa, Nansa issa mesa?" Nan said with a smile on her face.
"Well hello Nan, I'm Louis Armstrong and I've heard that you are a huge fan," Louis said.
"Yessa, Nansa issa excitedsa to meetsa yousa?" Nan sqweaked out. "Nansa rovesa yoursa musicsa? Flerp?"
"Well what are you favorite things to do?" asked Louis.
"Nansa rovesa tosa pruysa withsa mysa friendssa undsa mysa dogsa?" Nan said nervously. "Zionk?"
"Thats very interesting," Louis said. He was confused as to why he was stuck on this date with this awkward person. She was drooling and hissing and he wasn't sure if she was actually human. He felt like she wanted to eat him.
"Yessa, Nansa issa usa verysa interestedsa personsa? Flerp?" Nan smiled. Nan was so excited. She had a HUGE crush on Louis and always had. She loved everything about him. "Nansa rovesa yoursa musicsa usa lotsa? Muksa Nansa usa songsa?" Nan said hopefully.
"Yeah, I can maybe write you a song. What do you want it to be about?" Louis asked.
"Nansa wuntsa thesa songsa tosa besa uboutsa Nansa and yousa falledsa in rovesa?" Nan said.
"You're really creepy," Louis said. "And I can't even understant you!"
"Nansa wuntssa tosa sturts hungedsa withsa hersa everydaysa?" Nan hissed.
"Uhm no thanks Nan, thats weird," Louis said preparing to run away. He got up from the table and started to run away.
"NOSA WUITSA? Nansa rovesa yousa?" Nan cried. And with that Louis was gone about out of Nan's life forever.
