G. Shapiro summarizes the current understanding of Lemur linguistics, as
reported in the Journal of Irreproducible Results:

frink (adj) - very appealing, sexually

frink (noun) - a National Geographic photographer

[Note: The dual usage of 'frink' stems from a confusion in Lemur society.
The primary determinant of sexual appeal in Lemurs is size of the eyes.
Lemurs confused the telephoto lenses of National Geographic photographers
as huge, and hence very appealing, eyes.]

ptang (verb) - to have sex with another species. Has a positive
connotiation when the other species is also primate. More akin to the
English 'bestiality' when the other species is non-primate.

cheep, cheep, cheep (noun) - particularly satisfying sexual experience

So let us use this knowledge to translate the following Lemur dialogue:

1st Lemur: PTANG FRINK FRINK
2nd Lemur: cheep, cheep, cheep

Translation:

1st Lemur: I heard you had sex with that hot-looking National
Geographic photographer.
2nd Lemur: Yes. It was great.
