Daily Miranei - 2 excerpt from The Archer From Kipleth



“Narskneeyr visreima... (At your service...)” the snake smiled.




narsknee (prn.) your (prnc. NARSK nee)


-yr (prp.) at (prnc. Ear)


visreim (v. root, n.) service (prnc. VIS rye m)




As in English, visreim is both a noun and a verb root, the 'a' suffix makes it a present tense verb.




This phrase is an idiom in Miranei, exactly as it is in English.




fun usage:


Van Helsing: Count Dracula!


Count Dracula: Narskneeyr visreima.




ok. That's all well and good... But what the heck is a snake speaking Miranei for???


Well... Iounelle CAN talk to animals, as all elves can, with animal speak/hear. But something seems fishy here...


cheers,


Kurt
