Roviakin71 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I am wondering if fans are allowed to make up words for the Dragon language for english words that haven been covered by Bethesda, For instance I want to make a dragon word up that would mean martyr. In the closest official word is Zahrahmiik which means sacrifice but that sound far too long and unwieldy if you want to use it for a dragon's name. I think someone should make a shorter version that would means martyr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikecheese1337 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Make one up yourself, there's no law against it. Try fiddling with an existing word or if you must invent one from scratch keep true to the style, short and punchy words.

Elsarian Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Also, remember that the "name" of a dragon is actually a Shout in and of itself. Paarthurnax is a word of power which will call him, just like Odahviin is also one. So, essentially any "name" you make up would be it's own new word of power. You can literally come up with any name you want as long as it can be broken into three separate parts for a shout. As far as the word for martyr, I have no clue. It would be best for you to use the chart that shows the letter for which each symbol corresponds with. -Elsarian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
