Fans can now learn to speak the Dothraki language specially made for "Game of Thrones." The Independent describes Dothraki as "a constructed language spoken by a race of nomadic horse-riding warriors." Although the Dothraki language exists in the books, the HBO series has developed most of it. To further flesh out the fantasy language, linguist David J. Peterson was tapped to come up with the vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, and cultural uses of the language. The Inquisitr said that Peterson co-founded the Language Creation Society.
The language can now be learned online via an app course. Living Language, an online language learning source, has an offer for fans who wish to learn the fictional language. Those who want to get involved in learning the new language offering will have over hundreds of words and phrases to familiarize themselves with. The Inquisitr said that audio samples would also be made available via the app and some of the words have been created exclusively for Living Language. The Dothraki course, which is slated for an October 7 release, is already available for pre-order. The Dothraki book and CD package costs $19.99. Individuals can also enroll in the online course for $30. Apple users can take advantage of the iOS companion app for $3.99.
Meanwhile, filming for season 5 continues. According to International Business Times, the latest filming scoop involves a scene with Emilia Clarke's Daenerys Targaryen and a big clash. The clash, will allegedly happen after Dani orders the execution of a slave.
Watchers on The Wall described the violent scene as follows, "The scene takes place on Dany's terrace in Meereen, and involves her sentencing a slave to death (in Meereenese) before an audience of both masters and slaves. Daario performs the execution, after which chaos erupts. Both parties shout and clash, with only the Unsullied to protect Daenerys and escort her away from the conflict. The scene is apparently lengthy, and will take place in the fourth episode."
