R'lyehan is a difficult language. It has conjugations and declensions that are literally incomprehensible to mortal minds, and that's not even getting into the tense-aspect system.

"There is a procedure to get new gods approved in Massachusetts-- we're kind of a center of a lot of this stuff-- but it's designed for, you know, cults that were previously secret and maybe did some human sacrifice and now want to get right with the law."
"...and this procedure is inapplicable to Iomedae because... She didn't order enough human sacrifice?"
"I mean, some of it will likely be inapplicable, and I don't know how they'd prove a track record of non-destructiveness... but I guess that's the bureaucrats' problem."
"I assume there is a bootstrapping problem if I offer to cast a truth spell on myself."
