Dothraki Dictionary ( Ver 3.1Test) The English-Dothraki Dictionary ( ver 3.1test) Written by Lajaki (Richard Littauer) www.dothraki.org May 24th, 2015 This is the English to Dothraki Dictionary. Dothraki is the language for the Dothraki peop- le, a nomadic war-mongering race that ride the aptly-named Dothraki Sea steppes in George R.R. Martin’s series, A Song of Ice and Fire. It was created by David Peterson, of the Language Creation Society, for the HBO adaptation of the series: all copyright belongs to HBO and the LCS. This is a dictionary only of publicly made information, from posts on the LCS blog, the original books, David Peterson’s blog and personal emails. Words which have been created by David Peterson are listed as DP - words created from the original book are listed as M. For more information, go to dothraki.org. Bold indicates an English definition. Italics indicate the Dothraki translation. There are now separate, numbered entries for each word that has different definitions for different parts of speech (root words are generally excluded from this practice). Plain text indicates grammatical categorization: parentheses indicate extra information. The IPA indicates the correct pronunciation, and should now be fully up-to-date. Some transcrip- h tions may have allomorphs, as in [qoj] or [q oj]. Transitivity for verbs is marked if known: vtr., for transitive verbs, and vin. for intransitive verbs; words marked v. are either unattested or ambitransitive, or their transitivity is unable to be deduced. Noun animacy is marked na. for animate nouns, and ni. for inanimate nouns. Nouns marked simply n. are at this time unattested for animacy. A capital letter ’B’, or lack thereof, following a part of speech indicates whether a word stem is ’type A’ or ’Type B’. Type B nouns generally take an epenthetic /e/ when they are shortened to stems, type A do not. All nouns whose stems end in /g/, /w/ or /q/ are type B, and there are some other type B endings as well. Note that the type A/B distinction applies to verbs as well. At this point in time, not all type B words are marked as such. Since the lexical form of Dothraki nouns and verbs are inflected forms, you will not see stems in this dictionary, except in a few rare cases. An attempt is being made to indicate the stems now, and it is hoped that eventually, all words with a questionable stem form will show the correct stem. If unsure of a stem form, consult the Dothraki vocabulary wiki. A few nouns are given with case endings when they have especially important meanings, or differ significantly in meaning from what the case ending normally implies. Stress markings have been removed, as the stress is fairly predictable, and will be more completely addressed in a future version of this dictionary. Numbers are also listed here where David Peterson specifically attested one-word terms for them. There is also now a numbers section in the appendices. The words herein should include all publicly known words. But if you find more words elsewhere, spot any errors or inconsistencies, or have any comments, please let me know on the forum. Thanks. 1 This dictionary is updated to match the Wiki edit of 24 May 2015, 07:21z. TEST MODE: Changes were recently made to the underlying code that drives the dictio- nary to remove a means of checking updates for accuracy, etc. offline. So, updates need to be checked online. If you see the word ’test’ following the version number, that means that the version is being actively updated, and is not considered ’released for general use’. Use test up- dates at your own risk. In general, the dictionary is in test mode for only an hour or so, every 7-10 days. Come back in an hour or so, and the dictionary should be back in ’general release’ state. NOTE ON ACCURACY: The English-Dothraki dictionary is generated automatically as a by-product of generating the Dothraki-English dictionary. All efforts are made to ensure the Dothraki-English dictionary is accurate and readable. This results in some entries in the English-Dothraki dictionary not being as useful as they could be. This is an artifact of the auto- generation process, and I cannot correct these discrepencies. Wherever I can, I try to edit things so they will be proper in both dictionaries, but I am not always successful in doing this. If you need to ensure something you see here is correct and authoritative, check either the Dothraki- English dictionary, or the Dothraki vocabulary wiki. If you see something here that is woefully wrong, please bring it to my attention on the dictionary thread of the Dothraki forums. Many praises and thanks go to Lajaki and Ingsve, who originally compiled this, and Tuiq, who originally put the coding online. Thanks also goes out to the folks at learnnavi.org, who now host the backend server and database (as well as our website), that generates this dictio- nary. Much of the maintenance of this dictionary is now being done by Hrakkar. 2 The Dictionary A about, concerning:[qesi] DP prep. to nom. qisi and:[ma] DP conj. ma (1) (1) and so,> and then, then, so, consequently: above, over:[oleT] DP prep. to gen. oleth [madZin] DP conj. majin som absent, missing:[ ] DP adj. som (2) and then,> then, so, and so, consequently: accurate sword strike, a quick, powerful: [madZin] DP conj. majin [hRakkaRix] DP ni. hrakkarikh animal carcass:[dozgix] DP ni. dozgikh ache, soreness:[aTmhaRar] DP ni. athmharar animal, beast:[Rhoa] DP n. rhoa across:[jomme] DP prep. to nom. yomme (1) animate noun:[vexix asavva] DP n. vekhikh as- act, deed:[tix] DP ni. tikh avva adult whose body was not burned, ghost: ankle, wrist:[hlofa] DP ni. hlofa [lei] DP na. lei (1) announcement:[annese] DP ni. annese advice:[Zillie] DP ni. zhillie another, other:[eSna] DP adv. eshna advice:[fonnoja] DP ni. fonnoya anxious:[manimven] DP adj. manimven after:[iRge] DP prep. to gen. irge (2) anxiousness:[aTmanimvenar] DP ni. athma- again, back:[save] DP adv. save nimvenar alike, both, the same way:[akkate] DP adv. ak- any:[Zille] DP det. zhille kate any grass-like ground cover , a type of grass: alive:[Tir] DP adj. thir [hRanna] M ni. hranna(Accusative form is all along, the whole time, from the begin- hran) ning:[evoon] DP adv. evoon any, some, few, a bit of:[loj] DP det. to gen. all, every:[ei] DP det. ei loy (2) kemik davRax ally:[ ] DP >na. kemik app, useful thing:[ ] DP ni. davrakh almost, nearly:[tSir] DP v.aux. chir apple:[qAzer] DP ni. qazer along, through:[vi] DP prep. to all. vi arm, hand:[qORa] DP na. qora already:[raj] DP adv. ray (1) armor :[Sor tawakof] DP na. shor tawakof (lit. akka also, too, as well, even, even so, re-:[ ] DP steel dress)> adv. akka army:[ladZasar] DP na. lajasar ajjej always:[ ] DP adv. ayyey arrow:[loqAm] DP n. loqam joRosor an extremely large number:[ ] DP num. as well, also, too, even, even so, re-:[akka] DP yorosor adv. akka An image or symbol depicted on a tattoo: as, like:[ven] DP conj. ven liRix navviRzeTaj [ ] DP ni. lirikh > ashamed:[ ] DP adj. navvirzethay an instance of blocking, block:[dZazo] DP ni. ashes:[ix] DP ni. ikh jazo asleep:[remek] DP adj. remek an unnoticed and uncalled-for erection: athlete, stud:[Rhaek] DP na. rhaek [fitteja] DP ni. fitteya authentic, metal, real, legitimate:[tawak] DP kim ancestor:[ ] DP na. kim (1) ni. tawak> ancestry:[kimisir] DP na. kimisir autumn:[tsafka] DP ni. chafka B a bit of, some, few, any:[loj] DP det. to gen. baby, infant:[enta] DP n. enta loy (2) back:[iRge] DP n. irge (1) save a bit, a little bit, a small amount, some:[zolle] back, again:[ ] DP adv. save DP adv. zolle bad, evil:[mel] DP adj. mel 3 fiRi aZasavva ball:[ ] DP n. firi > blessing:[ ] DP ni. azhasavva> dZazo bank (of a body of water):[edZax] DP ni. ejakh block, an instance of blocking:[ ] DP ni. bark:[diSah] DP ni. dishah jazo qOj basket:[qEso] DP ni-A. qeso blood:[ ] DP ni. qoy ZaqE blood of my blood:[qOj qOji] phrase qoy bass fish:[ > ] DP n. zhaqe DP viladZeRo qoyi battle:[ ] DP>ni. vilajero tSal blood sausage:[ninTqOji] DP ni. ninthqoyi bean (general use):[ ] DP ni.>chal bloodrider:[doTRaxqOji] DP ni. dothrakhqoyi bean (when used as food):[tSalleja] DP ni. challeya bloodriders, small group of protectors, gene- xasar bear:[hlizif] na. hlizif rals:[ ] M na. khasar DP esittesak beard:[SiRane] ni. shirane blowhard, braggart:[ ] DP na. esittesak DP Telis beast:[iveZo] ni., B ivezho blue:[ ] DP adj. thelis DP qefo beast, animal:[Rhoa] n. rhoa boar, pig, pork:[ ] DP ni. qifo DP xado beat, rythmic noise:[oqO] ni. oqo body:[ ] DP na. khado DP ko beautiful :[lain] adj. lain(used for inani- bodyguard:[ ] M na. ko DP gehqOji mate nouns) bolas:[ ] DP ni. gehqoyi bone:[toloro] M ni. tolorro beautiful :[Zeana] DP adj. zheana(for animate book :[timvir] DP n. timvir(from High Valyri- nouns) > because :[hadZinaan] conj. haji- an tembyr) DP tim naan(followed by prefix me-) boot:[ ] DP ni. tim ki born:[jol] DP adj. yol because of, by, of:[ ] DP prep.> to gen. ki (1) both, alike, the same way:[akkate] DP adv. ak- because of, on account of:[hadZi] DP prep. to kate abl. haji (1) bow:[kohol] DP ni. kohol bee:[giz] DP n. giz box, trunk, chest, cask:[xogaRi] DP ni. khogari beef, cow:[dalfe] DP ni.

  • I Saggi Di Lexia
    I SAGGI DI LEXIA 35 Direttori Ugo Volli Università degli Studi di Torino Guido Ferraro Università degli Studi di Torino Massimo Leone Università degli Studi di Torino I SAGGI DI LEXIA Aprire una collana di libri specializzata in una disciplina che si vuole scientifica, soprattutto se essa appartiene a quella zona intermedia della nostra enciclopedia dei saperi — non radicata in teoremi o esperimen- ti, ma neppure costruita per opinioni soggettive — che sono le scienze umane, è un gesto ambizioso. Vi potrebbe corrispondere il debito di una definizione della disciplina, del suo oggetto, dei suoi metodi. Ciò in particolar modo per una disciplina come la nostra: essa infatti, fin dal suo nome (semiotica o semiologia) è stata intesa in modi assai diversi se non contrapposti nel secolo della sua esistenza moderna: più vicina alla linguistica o alla filosofia, alla critica culturale o alle diverse scienze sociali (sociologia, antropologia, psicologia). C’è chi, come Greimas sulla traccia di Hjelmslev, ha preteso di definirne in maniera rigorosa e perfino assiomatica (interdefinita) principi e concetti, seguendo requisiti riser- vati normalmente solo alle discipline logico–matematiche; chi, come in fondo lo stesso Saussure, ne ha intuito la vocazione alla ricerca empirica sulle leggi di funzionamento dei diversi fenomeni di comunicazione e significazione nella vita sociale; chi, come l’ultimo Eco sulla traccia di Peirce, l’ha pensata piuttosto come una ricerca filosofica sul senso e le sue condizioni di possibilità; altri, da Barthes in poi, ne hanno valutato la possibilità di smascheramento dell’ideologia e delle strutture di potere... Noi rifiutiamo un passo così ambizioso.

  • 'There Is No Word for Thank You in Dothraki': Language Ideologies In
    Gala Rebane ‘There is no word for thank you in Dothraki’: Language ideologies in Game of Thrones Abstract: This chapter discusses language ideologies in the acclaimed HBO series Game of Thrones (2011–2019) and the role which English vernaculars, foreign languages, and accented speech play in narrative characterisation of the protagonists. It focuses on language attitudes, including language stereotyping and linguistic discrimination, and shows the relationship the series establishes between varying degrees of language proficiency on one hand, and sophistication, culture, and humanness, on the other. Language issues in high fantasy With the release of the firstGame of Thrones (GoT) season in 2011, the fictional world of George R.R. Martin’s fantasy saga A Song of Ice and Fire (1996-)1 inscribed itself into the primary world of international view- ership, becoming nothing short of a collective myth. While, unsurprisingly, The Lord of the Rings is often cited among the chief sources of inspiration for Martin, his work was also a significant departure from established conventions of the high fantasy genre, as espoused by its founding father, Tolkien, and many other subsequent authors. Indeed, GoT (and before it A Song of Ice and Fire) veers from a monolithic moral soundness of eucatastrophic fairy epics2 to a degree of psychological and ideological twistedness rarely found in traditional heroic fantasy and entertainment media. Magic and fantastic creatures occupy relatively little space in the 1 Between 1996 and 2011, five volumes were published and, according to the author’s official website, two more are forthcominghttp://www.georgerrmartin.

Dª Carmen Galán Rodríguez 2018 AGRADECIMIENTOS Todo aquel que haya pasado por la apasionante e inolvidable experiencia de elaborar una tesis doctoral, sabrá reconocer que, una vez que se coloca el punto final, vienen a la memoria las personas que, de una manera u otra, han contribuido a que esto sea posible. Me gustaría agradecer, en primer lugar, el apoyo que siempre he recibido de mi directora, Carmen Galán Rodríguez, quien me abrió las puertas de este mundo de lenguas, que yo desconocía al principio, en el que he encontrado mi camino. Gracias por tu confianza, por tu sabiduría y tus consejos y, por supuesto, por enseñarme a creer en las palabras. Gracias, por valorarme.
