A list of words I might want to add into a mod based on Solitarian dwarven language
Notes
Toady on Lang
- How did you create the languages for all the civilizations? Did you base them off of something in real life or did they all come from your imagination? Also, how long did the process take?
- We created all the languages.
- we had a generator that just had certain rules about how consonants could be combine and what frequencies there were for the vowels

Notes on Solitarian
Dwarven is agglutinative; it has many compound words.
Adjectives precede nouns, and the noun being modified is placed at the end of the compound word.
Dwarven does not have articles (“the” and “a” and “an”) or prepositions (words that express direction, position, etc.: of, between, beyond, beside, on, under, over, and so on). The “the” before “ancient” is not in the Dwarven name, just as the “of” isn’t. Articles and prepositions are often implied by context and syntax.
Dwarven’s word order is this: subject, verb-tense, direct object, indirect object, extra information. Subjects come first.
