@Lusoz,
A portmanteau of "shield back": Spaarigir, (Spaan + Rigir). I personally love the way it looks.

@ Paarthurnax I think that it makes more sense for "Yoselfuniik" ('Degree/Temperature-Teller') to be the word for "Thermometer", and this would be consistent with "Tiidfuniik" ('Clock') and "Sufus-Funiik" ('Barometer'). What do you think? |

@Gronhah, included "obsession." @Votivutaal, deleted. @Fusaaviik, fixed spelling. @Noraasik, I think these are distinct enough. "To accuse" is to lay a charge without definite proof or authority. "To convict" is to lay a charge with definitive proof or with authority. A subtle difference that perhaps dragons might not care to distinguish - you are either guilty of something or aren't. @Olqeinaas, I actually think -us might be the more appropriate suffix here, as in most contexts the word "skeletal" is used to mean "like a skeleton" ("a skeletal hand" or "skeletal remains") rather than "pertaining to skeletons". @Oblisiik, corrected to a noun. |

This is listed as non-canon with no given notes. It obviously derives from "Mun" in some way. This word should either be deleted or changed to reflect a true semi-canon origin. |

@Moorus, added "comical." Deykel "book" has now been revised to dey. Fein "than" has now been revised to wey. Rigir has now been split into zek, the preposition, with rigir as the anatomical "back." @Es, this and similar interjections were deleted in favor of words that are either more canon or more direct in meaning. For example, nahlot "silence!" would instead be used instead of es. Likewise, liis would be used instead of any "translation" for "ha/haha." |
