In other words, Masturbation.

Funny you should mention. Let's just say there has been previous discussion about a translation for this word, and so far we've decided that it wouldn't exist in the dragon language.

Well, I rather feel foolish, as I completely overlooked that. Whoops.

And while it might not canonically have a Dovahzul word, based on the site's dictionary having words for stuff like football and computers, that doesn't mean it can't still exist in a noncanon way.

Questions you should ask yourself:

Verb edition

• Can a dragon do it? 
• Can we do it?
• Would it exist in Skyrim?
• Would the Dragons use the word?

I sincerely doubt that dragons would have any use for the word.

No, yes, yes, no. For these reasons, we decided to enter it in the dictionary but as a modern word.

Were them questions at all accurate?

Those are actually really good questions to ask. I might include those in the Contributor's Manual.

Thanks!
