Some extracts of the Dwarvish Language (Kroltz)

"Old Dwarve."

"Here is a selection of Dwarvish words I learned over a very enjoyable keg of Fjoar with an elderly Dwarve in Stordonafagel.  Strictly speaking the words are 'Krotlz', that is the language spoken over most of the former empire of the Ottarol Dwarves (who are themselves 'Dwarves of Rock' if we are being strictly taxonomic, and not to be confused with either the Sand-Dwarves of the southern deserts or the Ice Dwarves of the isle of Yeno). 

The slightly erratic nature of the words collected can be excused both through the strength of the Fjoar and the senility of the Dwarve (whose name I never did attain). The pronunciation wasn't helped by the Dwarves lack of teeth...

To find such an elderly Dwarve so close to the surface was something of a surprise, but this was Stordonafagel, and really nothing can surprise one about this outrageous and anarchistic mine.

To talk of grammar is a boring pass-time unworthy of my hang-over, needless to say it is reasonably similar to the Common Tongue.  You will get by trying that, any way.

"Maul val urinol melgul!" as my elderly Dwarvish drinking companion would say!

Or was it "Maul val melgul urinol"?" 

[As I delve into Faadon's basket I am sure I will come across more Kroltz words, and will add them to this post as I do.]
