Darnassian

Darnassian is the language of the Night Elves and one of the conlangs of the Warcraft world.
I’d like to say more on this subject, but I honestly haven’t dedicated any time to looking into it yet.

  • I’ve already noticed some oddities regarding speculation about the language here.
    • The phrase in the quote on Warcraft is ā€˜Anu dunah thalore, Iseradune banthalos’ which is an assumed phonetic transcription, from the Warcraft Wiki page. The link to the speculation suggests, instead, that it’s ā€˜Anoduna falore, isera’duna banthalos’. From listening to the original dialogue…i-it could go either way. I’m inclined to lean on the speculative one…because that one provides a translation and I’m guessing it’s reasonably well-thought-out.
    • The main oddity that I noticed was in regards to the response to the above quote: ā€˜Ash’therod neph’anis’. Just above that, it’s transcribed as ā€˜Ashte’rodne’…and it’s supposed to be the same word. I’m guessing there’s an error somewhere, so I’ll look at it eventually.
  • Note that if I’ll start speculating myself, I’ll be building on the work of that previous speculation.
