@Ahreyt, what notes would you like added? It's non-canon, I can't think of much else to mention.

 

Krosis! For some reason I must have overlooked the fact that it didn't really require any notes since..well...its non-canon. Thought it was semi-canon krosis.

Agoor

'A mortal in need of burning'? You just put Crematee or something along those lines. I think that you could also simply delete this word, and just say "Jor ko praag ag" If you decide to keep this word there is an error in the notes. My thoughts are, if there isnt a specific word in English, then why in Dovahzul?

Ahmol

This word is incredibly close to 'husband' could there be a better alternate?

@Ahmol, good point, edited this to ahmos.

@Agoor, I'm fine with deleting this too, but I would disagree with the reason. "The dov have words that joor do not." There's no reason words should adhere to English. Alternatively, I encourage everyone to think of words that would be fitting for dragons but don't have exact English equivalents.

@Vozahlaas, I think this word should remain as is because joor has many negative connotations. For example, consider the difference in tone between hypothetical words "unmoronic" and "unfoolish." Both ultimately mean "not stupid" or "intelligent," but "unmoronic" would be harder to parse since "moron" is typically so negative.

Similarly, vozahlaas would be a grander or more powerful word than vojoor, in my opinion.

Even so, could I still submit vojoor as a synonym? I feel like it just... fits. At least to me, anyways.

Sure, we could have it as a synonym.

Briin: We already have  a canon word for sea. Couldn't we just add ocean to its meaning?

@Paarthurnax,

So, if you decide to keep the word 'agoor' remember the typo in the word notes.

Aargron

Could be better with the compounded words reversed -- gronaar -- to better pronunciation.

Too bad because gro and naar are already words. Both canon, too. Gronaar could be confused as bound-summit.

That still might work, plus he does bring up a good point. I think switching them might not be a bad idea.

Aam

according to Memrise (the canon course) this means "hmm?" I was simply wondering whether or not this is an error on our part or Memrise

Fruk

This word is a little too close to "fruit" in my opinion and also I believe there are apples in Skyrim. wouldn't the fact that there is fruit in the game make this a semi-canon word?

That's not what makes a word semi-canon. You're confusing modern with non-canon. It would only be semi-canon if it was based on canon language.

This is an error on Memrise. It was misunderstood in the context that it is used in the game. "aam" means "serve".
