VAARAN WORD LIST

Because my current campaign is set in the Vaaran Kingdoms I've been developing a list of words and sounds for the local dialect of Gruskel (Vaaran). A lot of this also would apply to Klerskel because the languages are related. I posted an earlier version of this list a while back but this is much more detailed. One thing I tried to do was come up with Gruskel versions of the character names. For instance we have a PC named Garoff the Destroyer, and in Gruskel this would be Garoff Um Varshkeda. I haven't vetted the list for consistency yet so it is possible there are minor discrepancies yet to be weeded out.
