Post Ancient Language Quiz
Ok, Heres the deal, Im going to write 5 words in the AL, you tell me what they are. The next time I get a chance, I'll post the correct translations, the people who got them all right, and another five words.

Remember; The point of this is to see what you know of the top of your head, so dont get out the books and look up the words, that would just ruin it for yourself wouldn't it?

We'll start off with some easy ones for Round 1
Brisingr
Bjartskular
Garjzla
Stenr
Draumr

Sorry this has taken so long. the answers to the last round were;

misery
woman
friends
stare
silverhand


and no one got all of the questions write.

I've got to go, so I cant put up the next round yet. but I'll do it ASAP.

As for were I've been, lets just say that i've had a sporting event all of this week and by the time I got home every night I was too stuffed to go on the pc.

Sorry this has taken so long.

The word fraciar, in the last round meaning friends, was really nasty of me, because it's not actually used in any of the books.

I got it of the ancient language section of shurtugal.com, this is copied from it;

-ar: pluralises nouns ending on consonants. If the noun already ends with "r", place an "a" before it. For example, "draumr" (dream) becomes "draumar" (dreams). However, if the noun already has a vowel before the "r", the suffix "-ya" is used. For example, "edur" (tor) becomes "edya" (tors).
-í: changes verbs ending with any letter (except for "i" and "r") to past tense. For example, "haina" (harm) becomes "hainaí" (harmed).
-o: forms the past tense of verbs ending with "i" and "r". For example, "skölir" (shield) becomes "sköliro" (shielded)
-r: gives nouns a masculine connotation. For example, "älf" (elf) becomes "älfr" (male elf), which is also he in the Ancient Language.
-s: makes nouns possessive. For example, "könungr" (king) becomes "könungrs" (king's).
-sja: adds "-looking" to the end of adjectives. For example, "ramr" (strong) becomes "ramrsja" (strong-looking).
-ya: pluralises nouns ending on vowels. It also replaces the last vowel. For example, "agaetí" (celebration) becomes "agaetya" (celebrations). If the "-ya" interferes with the word's pronunciation, the vowel it would normally replace isn't removed. The vowels "a" and "i" are usually changed to "e". For example, "celöbra" (honor) becomes "celöbreya" (honours).


With that in mind, I'll give you an easy round using that.


garjzlas
agaetio
brisingrar
stonar
risai


I'm not gonna count the word fraciar in the "Who's got everything right part, So the people who've got everything right are-

Arya2
