Hehe. Thanks a lot!! :-) Wake him :-P


Ok. So High Valyrian is like standard (High) German, and Astapori or Meereen Valyrian is like any regional dialect such as spoken in, let's say, Vienna -which is easier to understand-, or Vorarlberg -which is almost impossible to do so:))-, respectively.

Another question about Astapor(i Valyrian):
What's "sa", as in 'Sa tida' - 'It is done'? ( http://www.dothraki.com/2013/04/sesir-urnebion-zȳhon-keliton-issa/ )
..As I can't find it in neither the Astapori Valyrian- nor the High Valyrian dictionary.

ah, ok.. concerning 1. I found out that the Aorist time is timeless. (I thought it's a perfect form)

Still, 2. I don't get..


thx!

Hi!

I'm slightly confused:

1. According to wikipedia http://wiki.dothraki.org/High_Valyrian_Vocabulary#Y


'Quptenkos Ēngoso ȳdrassis?' stands for 'Do you speak the Common tongue?'.


So I found out "ȳdrassis" is the Aorist form, 3rd person singular of ȳdragon. But WHY?
'Do you speak..' would be 'ȳdrā', wouldn't it?

2. Another one with 'ȳdragon', according to http://www.dothraki.com/2013/04/sesir-urnebion-zȳhon-keliton-issa/ would be:


'Ydra ji Valyre?' - 'You speak Valyrian?'


What does "ji" stand for? ..as I can't find it anywhere:/


THANKS.

'J'aspo' means 'bitch', right?

As in:
J'aspo eza zya azantyr. - The bitch has her army.

Or:
Ivetra j'aspo zya dyni do majis. - Tell the bitch her beast won't come.

do you know more swear words?

great thanks for the quick reply!

one further question, as i can't seem to find it anywhere:

thus, the correct conjugation of 'ilagon' - to lie/ to be _somewhere_ - just like 'estar' in Spanish - would be:

1s  ilan             
2s  ilā
3s  ilza, ilsa, ilas

1pl  ili
2pl  ilāt
3pl  ilzi, ilsi, ilis

?

thx

aaah thanks a lot!

Rytsas!

I've started to create a course to learn High Valyrian online, you can find it here:

http://www.memrise.com/course/340811/high-valyrian-2-2/

As I have just started to learn High Valyrian myself, I'd be happy if someone wants to help me improve it (especially concerning pronounciation and/or grammar),
gladly I would grant him/her full edit access on the course.


Geros ilas!

Hi!

According to

http://www.makinggameofthrones.com/production-diary/2014/5/8/high-valyrian-101-learn-and-pronounce-common-phrases

"they are" = "ilzi", as in
"Skoriot ñuhyz zaldrīzesse ilzi?" - "Where are my dragons"

BUT

According to the wiki source

http://wiki.dothraki.org/High_Valyrian_Verb_Conjugation

3pl present of 'sagon' = "issi"


Where's the mistake or is "ilzi" some special form of sagon I don't know about?

Thanks a lot.
