“Bruno and Ernst from the international Teutonophone (German, Austrian and Swiss) expedition arrived during breakfast. […] The sight of the Teutonophones gave Steve one of his brilliant ideas: Bruno and Ernst could use our tents here, in exchange we would sleep at their camp on the way up to the Makalu La, kick-off point for an attempt on either Kangchungtse to the north, or the main challenge of the Makalu traverse to the south.”

“(( An interesting case. Here in the Eastern Massachusetts of John Winthrop and Cotton Mather and Calvin Coolidge and even Mitt Romney one vaguely supposes that all Teutonophones give absolutely everthing^([sic]) the patented Leo Strauss Treatment, or perhaps the discredited Adolf Hitler Treatment, automatically -- crush, Crumble, CHOMP! -- but here's a headline where they have have^([sic]) to resort to lowly English even to say what it is they want done.

“Then again, she might be talking about a horse of some sort, and asking how much feed the thing will go through. It's hard to say; the German is a language of great subtlety. It is interesting (as an aside) to note that, although "Stute" is "mare", it is cognate with the English "stud". Whether this argues sexual confusion among anglo- or teutonophones I am not in a position to judge.”

“The name “phonodeik,” coming from the Greek for “to show sound,” was suggested by Morley; it was reportedly pronounced phono-deek, not dike—in spite of what teutonophones might prefer.”
