Faad Hadrim I would like to see translations for some words, here's a list: God/Male Deity, Goddess/Female Deity, Love, Alone, Lonely It seems that existing word is rah which does not include any sex separations, and I do not think there should be any, as remember: the dragons have no gender,sex concepts. Rah incompasses such sems as deity, spirit, god, daedra/aedra which is correct from the lore perspective. You can use the legacy translation page for some semi- or non-canon invented words that did not make it to the new one. Alone is Naalein; love is Lokaan; lonely can be the same naalein if its a strong adjective, if its a week one you will use -gaar=naaleingaar (possibly) I wonder if there could be some more human take on the Dovahzul from the Nords further in the eras, for example something atmoran influenced, though I totally agree that 'zul should have been a language for mysticism, dragon reverence, philosphy, rule, oaths and war. Not much about blankets and doors. To those who want to invent all kinds of words: If you want to stick to the lore, setting try to look at the things from the dragon perspective, or someone from the priestly hierarchy, educated classes that would write speak about many "elevated" matters and do about their errands using native lang instead. This is called a diglossia which I think is the case for the Dovahzul.
