Shelbish is a fictional language spoken by the Shelby toys. It is similar to Furbish as it uses sounds and noises to simulate language. It is only spoken by Shelbies, and has not been used or referenced to since then by Hasbro.
Origin
When the lifespan of Furby was slowing down, Tiger needed a new and fresh concept to squeeze all of the life out of the Furby brand. Thus, Shelby was born. However, in order to really make Shelby unique, a special language was formulated for it. It was named Shelbish, and a dictionary was included in the package the Shelby came in. It used simple, primitive sounds and grunts, and it really makes Shelby stand out from Furby and other Furby friends.
