Hello!
Welcome to the language from the gods!
I hope you promote it so it becomes more popular!

Pseudo-German is a made up, nonsensical and overall just stupid looking version of the German language.
Back in June 2017, my sister and I were texting to each other. We were both in the D3 level at the time. I was returning home from a trip in a train while she was at home. I told her to remember something, and she said:
"Ja ich habt das geremembert".
This was the first ever sentence written in Pseudo-German, which proved to be the spark of Pseudo-German. I then said, "Können du das in deines Kopf puten? Ich hast das in meinem Kopf geput." And so the conversation went on about what we want to be when we grow up, how we are skilled in jobs such as being a doctor, etc. Pseudo-German developed out of that.
We still sometimes wrote to each other in Pseudo-German after that.
Now, about 8 months later, I've decided to start constructing Pseudo-German on ConWorkShop! :)
