Gaelic? we all ignore the fact that there is a perfect source of actual Dwarven language that can be added to the lore: https://dwarrowscholar.wordpress.com/khuzdul/documents-dictionaries/
here there is a 5271 page dictionary of the dwarvenlaguage dwarven -> to english (Includes the runes).
Hre is an example of a word:
bunudsin [bʊnʊdsɪn] to head (lead) [Perfect Form (Dependable) / 2nd person plural feminine formal] [BND]

there is also this one thats easier but less specific;

and this one is a bit in between;

Khuz'dul sounds nothing like our dwarven.

I wasn't dead set on the idea of Scottish Gaelic however my main goal is to have the language updated monthly or weekly even adding new words or at least writing a way to create words using conjunctions and an alphabetical system. The words we have aren't truly enough to form whole sentences. For those who do use it not for everyday roleplay but for things like the Brathmordakin or dwarven history's and such the language doesn't have enough in it to develop full functioning sentences.

 

You can definitely make sentences using this language as it is, I've never had any trouble and neither have other people, however it is very restrictive in terms of fluent speech as it is not meant for such.

Moved to The Great Library. It shall be sorted into the appropriate category shortly.

 

If you feel this is a mistake, please contact myself or any FM and we'll restore it.
