I'm curious as to the meaning of the gnomish words spoken by the svirfneblin(?) and such in the Underdark. I've turned up a couple of Drow lexicons, but haven't had similar luck with gnomish versions of the same...would anyone have any pointers, please?

Thanks in advance for any and all feedback!

Don't know the answer, but I'll *bump* for you.

P.S. Welcome to the board.

hey guys, give kagetora a break!!! 17 replies to his thread and still he has no answer to his original question...I really do suggest you move to the GD board and have an enormous spam fest http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif
Oh and bump......Anyone know the answer to Kagetora's question?

Thanks Melusine...but I'm actually pretty used to all this http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...miles/wink.gif

Saves me the trouble of self-applying a busy bumping regimen...

Back to the topic. Anyone have a guess what Lila lur means. Viconia says just b4 "For Shar". ( wonders to self "Are all women like Shar-Teel in BG1?)

For those unfaniliar with Toril, Selune is the goddess of the moon. Her opposite (and some would say the same goddess but her other side) Shar is the goddess of the night. They are always at war with each other with Selune winning and rising into the night

lil = the
alurl = best

Lil alurl = The best


My interest for the gnomish and dwarvish tongues in BG2 being an offshoot of that for the drow vocabulary...for which there exist ample sources online.
