Could someone "translate" the following
and give me some examples of
Chain-link, (E-less) Lipogram, or E-full sentences?

I'd like to see samples in German, French, Spanish. ...
Thank you.

Why, you undertake entertaining game: enchain 'n needle 'em mots?

Chain-link knots successively yield ....

(1-letter overlap seems just as (un)interesting to a casual reader.)

Lipogram ( Liposuction ? ) and [ the pendulum effect ]


How hard is it? -- writing a paragraph [and avoiding] that most
common ... um ... "thing" in our, ... (mumbling) ... Writing-blocks
or Composition-atoms or Scribbling-units or (how about this?) "font-pool".

"Font-pool" -- gosh, that's awkward, but you know what I'm talking
about: th' 26 things (from A to Z) that add up to our writing
output. It's known as [Lipogram],
and th' word is difficult and odd -- Think [Liposuction]! Lipogram
is writing with our [fat]? How is that? Odd. Mighty odd. Most odd.

Return-to the entire Alphabet set! Phew! Great relief!
The letter E -- The wonderful letter E. The commonest alphabetic
letter. Every sentence includes one, generally.
Every longer term includes one. Shorter term?
... Well, let's see ...
Aren't-I overdoing the other direction? The proverbial pendulum effect?


Bothers me when someone tells me, regarding Chain-linked
sentences: "Three-letter-overlap's exceedingly complex-complicated and
One-letter-overlap's overly easy."

Makes me yell: --- Excuse me, mister? "Overly easy?"
Prove't mister. Give me one entire passage, tale, joke, riddle,
storytelling, etc. -- while observing the rule: one-letter-overlap
between successive terms!

More Later! HH

I'm not sure I understand: do you require translation of the terms "chain-link" etc. ?

If so, the only one I can help you with in French is "lipogramme (en E)", and for an example you may refer to the novel "La Disparition" by Georges Pérec, which is entirely e-free.

You might find what you're seeking by searching the Internet for references to the OuLiPo (Ouvroir de Littérature Potentielle), a French-based but international group dedicated to research into this kind of literary device. From memory, their site
contains a list of various such techniques.

i'm most interested in translations, for example:

(1-letter overlap)

-- Wein nimmer radiert trauernd die Einsamkeit.

-- Vin ne efface entierement trop pas solitude.

Can someone improve the above ?
