I've been combing through in-game dialogue, and a phrase that Alduin uses a lot is: "My teeth to your neck!", as a sort of threat, or expression of hatred.  Translated, this would be "Dii raxxe wah hin hruus!"  

Yes I remember that one. That's a good one indeed ^^

Here's another one: "Aal hin zahkrii fey kinzon", "May your sword stay sharp."  Alternatively, you could also say, "Aal hin zahkrii yen fey mul", "May your sword arm stay strong."

That one is most excellent, here's one for you and hopefully I have it right I'm still a bit shaky with these translations. "Kos bahlaan do hin thu'um" kos bahlaan do hin thu'um

I hope that's right, and your new lesson hub is extremely useful and efficient. Thank you for that.

"Be worthy of your Voice!"   A challenge of sorts?  Just a note, when you do the Dragon text, take what you want to say, plug it into the Alphabet Converter, and paste it into your post.  Right now it doesn't convert the letters automatically but I'm working on that.

Ah okay, I'll remember that. I'm glad I got that right. And yes a challenge, perhaps said by an elder dragon to a younger upstart or mortal that's sort of losing his way so to speak?

I like it, I'd shout it at Ulfric if I could.  Those who possess the Voice carry a tremendous power they should be worthy of.

Likewise! I always take joy in cutting that fool down. Even though I agree that the nordic way is being lost in many respects that's not the way you go about it. And besides if you're dealing with the Empire you always get things signed in triplicate so to speak. What did he think would happen when he challenged Torygg and won? Of course the empire would claim he killed him, Ulfric didn't clear it with them first rofls.

What about relation to family? Daughters, sons, mothers and fathers? Perhaps even uncles and aunts. I would be rather curious to see how Dragons behaved as a family, but more so as to how they refered to eachother.

Father - Bormah
Mother - Monah
Son - Kul
Daughter - Mon
Brother - Zeymah
Sister - Briinah
 

No words for aunt or uncle yet.  This is largely for the Dragon Language as spoken by the Ancient Nords. Since Dragons don't have families (they aren't born, they've always existed), they would likely see each other as brothers, all creations of Akatosh.
 

Indeed though they should have others they consider very close. It is food for thought. There is already "Mu los do gein Thu'um" mentioned here which was thought to refer to a deep alliance, or a concencus in thought. But perhaps a more personal one could be thought of?

Perhaps "Silzeymah", "Soul-Brother"?  The root of a Dragon's power is their soul.  We see in Skyrim several instances where either a Greybeard or a Dragon shares their power as if you were absorbing their soul.  Two Dragons/individuals could do this so much that they might begin to refer to each other as "Silzeymah" / "Silbriinah".

That's a good one and I think it encompasses that idea very well. I'm still trying to think of other ideas in my head, but it's getting close to finals week so I'm rather occupied hehe.

Some additional phrases I've thought of:

• "Vahzen!": Equivalent to German's "Genau!", means "Definitely!", "Certainly!".  Meant to be used more when someone says something that is true or that you agree with.
• "Rah wahlaan": This is canonical, could possibly be used to mean "By the gods!"/"By the Divines!".
• "Los nii ful?": Literally "Is that so?" Either a question looking for clarification, or a rhetorical remark to something interesting.
• "Saagaan tol... / Kriinaan tol...": "It is said that... / It is written that...", a phrase to preface an idea or fact.
• "Mindokaan tol...": "It is known that...", a more direct and authoritative version of the above.

Along with some idioms, if we come up with some, I'll probably collect these and make a lesson of just more common phrases / idioms.

Great ^^ These are all very useful as well to people who aren't as skilled at putting together phrases so they will have access to these things. And also far less weighty than the ones that come to my mind. That's the writer and rper in me I guess.
