A Lesson in Dragonspeak

[Anonymoose]

Thanks for all these updates! Before I replied, I went through the whole post adding new word definitions and checking words I'd found but not defined... and then found the note that things would be posted tomorrow. Whoops.

Indeed, I'd say you've succeeded in the language - even when I feel rather confident that I've cracked something unconfirmed (Hess Afah! - To "see forever"! The top of the mountain!), I find upon further review that it's not so simple (Wait a minute, that means to "Watch Forever", as in Tioman was on guard).

Looking forward to seeing how close Vik and I were as we chipped away at these, especially the Sorh Gahr mobs and dragon names from Anyx Trine.


EDIT
Oh, and also looking forward to whether or not mor and dhona are conspicuously absent...

1) To what extent do the spoken races understand dragonspeak?
2) To what extent do the dragons themselves speak Eorzean?
3) With reference to Q1, assuming that the average Eorzean doesn't understand dragonspeak, what are the chances that reference material can be found in repositories like the Great Gubal Library?

A good chunk of information related to this can be found in the old Dragonspeak introduction.
