    Roegadyn Naming Convention Possible Error?

    Hey! I'm a huge Roegadyn fan, and I was looking through the Roegadyn Dictionary when I saw that Skaen means "beautiful."

    My issue with this is, after some research, is that Skaen should actually be "Beauty," not "Beautiful."

    Why, you ask? Because it is my belief that an error has been made, and that in my opinion, Skaen is not an adjective, but actually a noun.



    In order to turn a Roegadyn noun into an adjective, an i must be added to the end of the word. So Skaen - in adjective form - should be Skaeni.



    In other words, in my personal opinion, Skaen is the Roegadyn word for "beauty" (N), while Skaeni is the Roegadyn word for "beautiful" (ADJ).


    Just some thoughts from someone who absolutely loves the Roegadyn naming convention and would like to put some clarity in the names.

    Sorry to necro bump, but I'm hoping this gets more attention than it got when I first made it. =/
