Question for you since I’ve been thinking about this and you were the first person I thought I’d ask.
Have we ever seen any of the Tyrrish kids actually speak their language?
I don’t think so cause I feel like it would probably be Xaden to Violet (maybe whispering sweet nothings to her?) and I would have definitely remembered that.
And…..now I really want to see our fourth wing rebellion boys talking in Tyrrish. (Especially to their girlfriends)
Okay last question/theory that’s pretty unlikely
Can Brennan speak Tyrrish?
I mean maybe the rebellion kids spoke it in Aretia?
and he picked up on it cause he was away for six years?
I don’t think so but…..maybe?
I do have one more thing to say (last one I promise….for now)
I read the new aaric and sunny part!
I really loved the fact that you depicted her as someone who came from nothing vs cam being born in the lap of luxury, that’s going to be interesting.
we also got another perspective on the riders’ quadrant
As in it’s a way for sunny to make her life better and she sees it as that versus like say violet, who just saw it as a death sentence.
That made more sense in my head…..
those are my very long thoughts…heh
Sending love (for some reason my heart emoji isn’t working so just imagine a heart here),
A (yes I’m the same one from yesterday)
it’s confirmed that Xaden (177) and Brennan (345) speak it! so by extension I’m sure Bodhi does too, and most likely Garrick and Liam, etc etc.
I think they might not specify when they’re speaking in Tyrrish because it’s Violet’s thoughts / pov so she understands it and writes it all down in the same language (I believe that we’re basically reading her diary. when they go out into the woods with infantry and a scribe, she talks about the scribe notes being accurate down to exact quotes and conversations, and Vi has scribe training.)
I also can’t find it but I swear there’s a line somewhere that’s like “the assembly resume arguing in Tyrrish”. but that may have been from a fic I read/wrote. I tend to mix them up sometimes since it’s been ~6mo since I read both books.
as soon as I found out Bren speaks it, I was like… I’m giving you a Tyrrish wife that you’re going to rizz up by speaking to in a “dead language” (see “allies”). so a lot of his dialogue with Duchess is italicized, implying it’s in Tyrrish. you’ll get some “Tyrrish” words here and there as Dain picks some up for Love (👀) but I’ll translate those in the conversation, bc I’m not gonna make y’all copy-paste things into Google lol
and thank you!! I wanted to make Sunny his complete opposite in some way. I’m from a lower-income community in the states and a lot of kids here join the military to get out and start a stable life, so I took inspiration from that. I considered it myself, but I didn’t meet their health requirements. I’ve been falling apart at the seams for a while now. that’s one of the reasons I like Vi so much, because I relate to her being breakable 😅
