    Satiated Shopkeep ?

    Theres a NPC called "Satiated Shopkeep" in Limsa Lominsa, near the Culinarians guild.
    A Miqo'te sitting next to the "Pissed Pirate", if im not mistaken it should be spelled "Satiated Shopkeeper"

    Just thought i let someone know.

    Shopkeep is just a stylized form of shopkeeper (in the same vein as barkeep, for example) that we like to throw in from time to time. It might not pop up in any dictionaries, but seems to be used prevalently enough in both fiction and non-fiction.

    Thanks for the post, Laughlyn!

    It's an Irish thing. Old Irish used to talk like that, not including those endings. I have seen "barkeep" used before, I'm not sure about 'shopkeep" but it seems just as likely.

    Now the question is; could we get it changed to "Sated Shopkeep?"

    I know they mean the exact same thing... but Satiated Shopkeep sounds awkward to me.

    There is so much education going on right now. Better English speakers all around, courtesy of Eemeefu!
