Daemon and Rhaenyra's high Valyrian sounds like Russian/Ukranian/Slavic. Luke's sounds hispanic whereas Aemond (older) sounds like Japanese. They all speak differently.
I love both of theirs. Milly’s is younger and a bit more forceful as she’s sort of biting out some of the words but still has command. Emma’s is like velvet, now truly comfortable speaking in the tongue.
Fun fact from DLP: the symbols on Rhaenyra and Daemon's foreheads during the ceremony in ep 7 are Valyrian glyphs. On Rhaenrya it's for fire, on Daemon it's for blood.
@@thalmoragent9344 I think theres probably a distinction between the ancient Valyrians and the Doom and post doom ones. Like how Mychenean Greece was different from acient Greece.
15:31 - 16:17 damn the language itself is already very pleasant to my ears, but hearing it in Emma D'Arcy's unique and silky smooth voice is just *chefs kiss*
Her ‘the Velaryons’s are of the sea but you and I are made of fire. We have always been meant to burn together” goes HARD. Especially the first line when she looks out to sea, it just sounds so gorgeous.
Emma's High Valyrian scratches such a good itch in my brain. They manage to say it with such emotion, I get carried along with the desperation in the delivery
A court language is actually very common in medieval history. English kings spoke the French of their forefathers, the Ottoman nobles kept Persian alive for centuries at court. I guess in an environment that treacherous, a shorthand no one can overhear is pretty valuable.
@@gguktae3502 yeah. The kid doesn't only sound good but it actually seems like a real language because his body language doesn't look like he's saying something unusual.
When Rhaenyra sais "velaria emboñar issi" something happens with the music in the background that makes my brain tingle. Just a wonderful scene and emma has a glorious voice.
Daemon and Rhaenyra used to speak it in literally every scene together before the time jump when they were alone. I wonder why that stopped?? Emma did but he responded normally. didn't understand why
I read someone comment that maybe after Rhaenyra got married and lost contact with Daemon she stoped speaking it as much as before ,and that would explain too why Luke and Jace did not speak it fluently even if they are teens and Rhae at their age could
@@naruske97 but in ep 7 she's the one who speaks it fluently to Daemon and he responds in English and ep 8 she still knows and is teaching Jace. it was daemon who stopped. but I think the fact that they filmed in reverse and hadn't nailed down that it was a core part of their relationship at that point of filming.
They didn't always speak it even when they were young. Only in specific situations, I guess. Mostly when they're surrounded by people and want privacy.
Milly's and Emma's high Valyrian is exceptionally pronounced and fluent. It is such a rich language, and flows like silk from them both; one could really believe that they grew up using this language they are so good.
@@alexissimpson5819Emma was good but we only got like 2-3 scenes of them speaking the language, and that those instances where they do speak it didn't leave an impact to me as much as how Milly used it in almost every episode.

If there is going to be a season 2, I hope it will feature more conversations in High Valyrian. I would like to see Rhaenyra and her children converse in High Valyrian.
Something very small but noticed by those learning HV on the course, is that the use of the HV word 'jorrāelza' typically means 'love', however in the usage Daemon uses it around 1:38 I think it probably should be 'ajorrāelza', as that translates better to 'needs'.
@@jasphersamson3772 it also sounds like she added something to it, like she's really saying "Ñuhys drīves nāqopsa se āhibiluks daor.". Maybe she got carried away, as that 'se' (which translates to 'and') really doesn't belong.
Dany had been speaking high Valyrian since she was old enough to. Her and Viserys would have grown up, not just being taught, but actually using the language as their mother tongue.
@@Seronui actually really love the high valyrian reveal so much because of this. ofc dany's mother tongue is valyrian, she's grown up completely in essos and in places where people still speak regional varieties and have the language deeply woven into their cultures. she would have gotten more use out of it than any targaryen in recent history, and i like to headcannon that she probably even had an accent when speaking westerosi common when she was younger. i also love that emelia, milly, and emma all sound so fluent and comfortable, it really makes the rhaenyra and dany parallels for me.

I think he laughs because Vaemond uses a funeral to raise the point of Rhaenyra's boys not being Velaryon blood. And the writers want us to think Daemon is evil for laughing at the funeral of the wife he genuinely loved.
i remember Emma saying in an interview that even tho they’re not shooting and just being outside the sets, Matt and Emma still converge in High Valerian just so they can still remember the language and still practice its accents so it will come off as natural when they’re playing as Daemon and Rhaenyra again. And Emma also add that her and Matt shared a secret language thru HV😅
Vesper is the greek hot evening sun, and perzys sounds like 'pyros', fire, but more slavic. I think Valyrian is mixed using many european languages, and depending on the speaker it can sound more celtic, slavic, finnish, greek or latin. Valyrians seem to be created using the concept of the Aryan race, which includes our celts, germans(norse,anglo), slavs, and blends even into india and persia (call themselves irani=aryans.) (hindi is related to european tongues) People try discrediting the vast Aryan myths by renaming them "indo-european" and trying to give hitler too much of a role in them, he only discovered and horribly misused the knowledge, or stories at least. Zoraster, among the first prophets of a solar monotheistic religion of abrahamic type, referred to caucasia-persia as "aryanem vaeja" or the great aryan place, in the irani gathas, which are ~5,000 years old. Many myths also place emphasis on 'hyperborea' ('far-north') and fair-colored people when referring to aryan identity, this is represented even now in fictions like skyrim with the nords of atmora, or in song of ice+fire as the axe of the andals (angles/nords) before they settled andalos. Whether the fair skinned and fair haired northeners were the original aryans, they/we seem to be a central core or expression of that at least. Valyrians act like this old condensed form of that, but even more unique aryans for being nearly albino. Native americans also use the four cornered medicine wheel to elementally place europeans as the race of fire, -not only for inventing fire-powered machines- being that zoroastrian persians (very magic-heavy aryans) worshipped fire, canaanites liked fire too, and romans and greeks were uplifted by those societies, and acted in the same vein of fiery or dragon-like. They all used dragon heraldry and symbols, from saxons and romans to assyria-mesopotamia. Chinese invented fireworks, they may not be aryan but they are still in the repto-dragon cultural sphere, of the mid-latitude east, like the mid-latitude west or aryans, connected through persia and india. (semitic people of north africa>arabia>caucasus may have aryan blood, strong or mixed to whatever extent, and they may have replaced a bit of the more original aryan blood that was in turkey and persia, and i believe indians are south-asian base with aryan blood mixed in, just look at pakistanis, and green-eyed afghans) It gets crazier if you even take it further into prospective conspiracy theories, that reptilians related to and including dragons have influenced mankind, in east asia, but especially through the Mesopotamia area and Aryan/european culture and genetics, namely rh-negative blood (lacks the rhesus-monkey factor, the ape marker, being more reptilian, hypothetically), which is most prominent in pale aryan people, which would also explain why cultures from europe to east asia -in the central almost latitudinal corridor of aryan-to-east asian cultures that speak of dragons- are more fiery, passionate, and prone to expand and progress, even to their own detriment, and sometimes more megalomaniacal, and "cold-blooded". This reptilian blood theory also connects to how in SoIaF, Valyrians sometimes show strong reptilian dracoid features in their young fetuses. So tl:dr, Valyrians are core european-aryan, roman-persian dragon-blooded mage-vikings, kinda elf-like and even more magical and mysterious for being albinos, with the very good and very bad expressions of draconic blood and fire, polarized and intense like a dragon, reflecting or based in our own world's truth to some extent. And while i've dove into these ideas and i do believe them, and they hold objectively true at some level, it is only describing my own blood and history, and the european one which has become a major influence across the world. It doesn't downplay the fact that humans are a single but many-branched tree, each branch having its own origin in divinity or even e.t.'s, their own beauty and magic and version of a story with their own affinities that may overlap. But with affinities, like astrology, of course it is not always exclusive but often expressed across gradients, though certain individuals or groups have a stronger representation of it than others, giving them their unique affinity or identity, even if only as a dominant average of the group that stands out in the world.
In my head Valyrian is somehow adapted to be like how dragons or reptiles would speak like harry potter with parseltongue commanding or parlaying serpents more easily by vibing with their own tongues and natures. And historically, dragons are called serpents, just look at caraxes and syrax. If any languages in our own world are closer to reptilian ones, they would be for sure Sumerian, Hittite, maybe greek and latin, and to some extent chinese or japanese, if you think about speaking as a reptile with ~no lips. And all these cultures are strongly connected to symbols and ideas of dragons, so you never know. And in Middle-Earth, the black speech, is largely based on hurrian, close to hittite and sumerian. Babylon had a golden dragon on its sapphire gate, and sumerians were taught by the 'annunaki' which some say is a catch-all for e.t., but that theirs were reptilians. Solar gods, the most popular type, are often given attribute or relation to dragons, like inti-quetzalcoatl, the east asian dragon kings from heaven, the uraeus of egypt, and Mushushu of marduk, who is enlil, son of anu and part of the solar trinity. Also, hindus -who's solar Shiva has the king of nagas Shesha-, believe that fire has many forms, incuding flames, lightning, pure light, and the sun, which ties in to the targaryans nicely. (also targe-aryans, targe is a shield of solar symbology used by gaelics-germans, who are like the valyrians part of the core aryan race) Blessings of the solar dragon's light
Those dragon keepers who work in the dragon pits must be decendants of Valyrians or have dragon blood if the dragons listen and cooperate with them. And since they speak Valyrian fluently
I think it is less to do with the blood of the dragonkeepers, and more to do with the riders of the dragons. The dragons are smart, they understand that their riders entrust them to the care of these keepers who do not have the same bond with them. So I personally believe that the dragons only obey the dragonkeepers, and even then reluctantly, because it is the wish of their riders that they do. If a dragonkeeper and a rider of a dragon gave contrasting commands, the rider would be obeyed over the keeper.
@@liamcollins9183 hey can u tell me why valeryians can also ride the dragon like i am just watching house of the dragon first will watch got later i thought only targareyns can ride and control dragon?
@@IdkIdk-gw3qo it's not 100% clear if all Valyrian blood makes it easier to ride dragons or just blood from a dragonlord house like the Targaryens. The Velaryons weren't dragon riders until the children of Corlys Velaryon and Rhaenys Targaryen, and the Celtigars and Qoherys' never rode dragons, so I'd lean towards needing blood from a dragonlord house. The counter to this though, is Addam of Hull claiming Seasmoke, as he was a bastard of Corlys, with no Targaryen blood that we're aware of.
@@IdkIdk-gw3qo the real answer is that the Velaryon's are a vassal house of the Targaryen's, they both come from Valyria. Dragonstone and Driftmark are both at sea, these houses have had many generations of intermarrying. Seems like George R.R. Martin always had the Targaryen's split between the Red Keep and Dragonstone.
It kinda reflects how valyrian is like many european languages, or a more original and unseparated aryan tongue with reptilian mixed in. 'Do-hay-rahs' or 'Do-ha-ras' (Dohaeras) sounds closer to babylon-area semitic languages or maybe greek or germanic, and 'Do-hai-ras' or 'Do-hai-res' also could be eastern, but sounds phonetically pronounced, like latin. ("Hae"= Ha-eh / Ha-e ; like laetor 'la-e-tor' or 'laietor') In my head Valyrian is somehow adapted to be like how dragons or reptiles would speak -like harry potter with parseltongue- commanding or parlaying serpents more easily by vibing with their own tongues and natures.

I'm still trying to figure out what Emma's Rhae says when the actual translation is "ñuho drīvo bē epvor lykemiluks. Va mōriot." (any questions regarding my claim would be silenced. Forever.). The actual subtitled translation is not that as well as her actual spoken Valyrian is different (my claim would not be so easily challenged). I'm in the middle of the Duolingo course but I could not find any of those words in DLP's wiki English/Valyrian dictionary that would be sufficient.
@@stoneydavid5189 Looks like someone above figured it out: "Ñuhys drīvo nāqopsa āhibiluks daor.". Ñuhys=My; drīvo = truth (in this form though it probably means reason); nāqopsa=basics (in this instance it probably means 'easy'); āhibiluks=to challenge; daor=this is always a negating phrase in HV, so 'not'..
I wanna have the rhaenyra’s speech to daemon tattooed on my arm. The part where she says we are made of fire, we were always meant to burn together. But I can’t find the text in high valyrian. Does anybody know how it is spelled?
The only thing I want to complain is vowel length. There is barely any vowel length distinction here at all... but props to the actors for pulling this off
My question is can the other Valyrian house, the velaryons, also understand high Valyrian? I assume rhaenys can because she was born and raised Targaryen, but idk about vaemond and corlys
I will never get over how bad the dress at 0:55 is. All that money, an entire team of costumers and that’s what they came up with? Looks like it came from party city.
@@fauna5328 Clothing in the past actually had much more structure and were made of incredibly fine fabrics and materials. Look at what people were wearing 200 years ago compared to what we wear now. Much more luxurious. Whoever cut the pattern for that dress just didn’t know what they were doing. Thank god the second season had costumes that actually fit the actors.
Its where they park the dragons in King's Landing. The Dragonpit was made for the dragons and dragonkeepers are responsible for looking after them.@@championjdg
Were Laenor and Laena’s ‘dracarys’s so bad that they just didn’t count? 😂 Edit: I made a ranking of the characters’ pronunciation for fun. This list isn’t the most fair for 2 reasons: 1) because sometimes I was comparing characters that only said one word to characters that had entire scenes of dialogue and therefore had more opportunities to mispronounce, and 2) because it doesn’t take into account how an actor can make the language feel more real because of the context of the scene (for instance, my second and fifth picks speak in ceremonial contexts, whereas the others speak in emotional and/or everyday conversations). 1. Dragonkeepers 2. Maester who married Rhaenyra and Daemon 3. Adult Rhaenyra 4. Older Lucerys (my personal favorite, brought down only by his pronunciation of ‘daor’) 5. Vaemond 6. Viserys 7. Young Rhaenyra 8. Older Jacerys 9. Maester teaching Older Jacerys 10. Daemon 11. Laena 12. Younger Jacerys 13. Younger Aemond 14. Older Aemond 15. Laenor
i don't know how is the true pronounce sounds like but emma speaks like she's speaking russian language while milly speaks like some ancient language so i like hers more
Which character do you think have the best High Valyrian tongue? I personally think it's the Dragonkeeper elder (02:20) or Emma D'arcy's Rhaenyra🙌
Emma, Milly and Matt for me ❤ but they are all amazing !!

Vesper is the greek hot evening sun, and perzys sounds like 'pyros', fire, but more slavic. I think Valyrian is mixed using many european languages, and depending on the speaker it can sound more celtic, slavic, finnish, greek or latin.
Valyrians seem to be created using the concept of the Aryan race, which includes our celts, germans(norse,anglo), slavs, and blends even into india and persia (call themselves irani=aryans.) (hindi is related to european tongues) People try discrediting the vast Aryan myths by renaming them "indo-european" and trying to give hitler too much of a role in them, he only discovered and horribly misused the knowledge, or stories at least.
Zoraster, among the first prophets of a solar monotheistic religion of abrahamic type, referred to caucasia-persia as "aryanem vaeja" or the great aryan place, in the irani gathas, which are ~5,000 years old. Many myths also place emphasis on 'hyperborea' ('far-north') and fair-colored people when referring to aryan identity, this is represented even now in fictions like skyrim with the nords of atmora, or in song of ice+fire as the axe of the andals (angles/nords) before they settled andalos. Whether the fair skinned and fair haired northeners were the original aryans, they/we seem to be a central core or expression of that at least. Valyrians act like this old condensed form of that, but even more unique aryans for being nearly albino. Native americans also use the four cornered medicine wheel to elementally place europeans as the race of fire, -not only for inventing fire-powered machines- being that zoroastrian persians (very magic-heavy aryans) worshipped fire, canaanites liked fire too, and romans and greeks were uplifted by those societies, and acted in the same vein of fiery or dragon-like. They all used dragon heraldry and symbols, from saxons and romans to assyria-mesopotamia. Chinese invented fireworks, they may not be aryan but they are still in the repto-dragon cultural sphere, of the mid-latitude east, like the mid-latitude west or aryans, connected through persia and india. (semitic people of north africa>arabia>caucasus may have aryan blood, strong or mixed to whatever extent, and they may have replaced a bit of the more original aryan blood that was in turkey and persia, and i believe indians are south-asian base with aryan blood mixed in, just look at pakistanis, and green-eyed afghans)
It gets crazier if you even take it further into prospective conspiracy theories, that reptilians related to and including dragons have influenced mankind, in east asia, but especially through the Mesopotamia area and Aryan/european culture and genetics, namely rh-negative blood (lacks the rhesus-monkey factor, the ape marker, being more reptilian, hypothetically), which is most prominent in pale aryan people, which would also explain why cultures from europe to east asia -in the central almost latitudinal corridor of aryan-to-east asian cultures that speak of dragons- are more fiery, passionate, and prone to expand and progress, even to their own detriment, and sometimes more megalomaniacal, and "cold-blooded". This reptilian blood theory also connects to how in SoIaF, Valyrians sometimes show strong reptilian dracoid features in their young fetuses.
So tl:dr, Valyrians are core european-aryan, roman-persian dragon-blooded mage-vikings, kinda elf-like and even more magical and mysterious for being albinos, with the very good and very bad expressions of draconic blood and fire, polarized and intense like a dragon, reflecting or based in our own world's truth to some extent.
And while i've dove into these ideas and i do believe them, and they hold objectively true at some level, it is only describing my own blood and history, and the european one which has become a major influence across the world. It doesn't downplay the fact that humans are a single but many-branched tree, each branch having its own origin in divinity or even e.t.'s, their own beauty and magic and version of a story with their own affinities that may overlap. But with affinities, like astrology, of course it is not always exclusive but often expressed across gradients, though certain individuals or groups have a stronger representation of it than others, giving them their unique affinity or identity, even if only as a dominant average of the group that stands out in the world.
In my head Valyrian is somehow adapted to be like how dragons or reptiles would speak like harry potter with parseltongue commanding or parlaying serpents more easily by vibing with their own tongues and natures. And historically, dragons are called serpents, just look at caraxes and syrax.
If any languages in our own world are closer to reptilian ones, they would be for sure Sumerian, Hittite, maybe greek and latin, and to some extent chinese or japanese, if you think about speaking as a reptile with ~no lips. And all these cultures are strongly connected to symbols and ideas of dragons, so you never know. And in Middle-Earth, the black speech, is largely based on hurrian, close to hittite and sumerian.
Babylon had a golden dragon on its sapphire gate, and sumerians were taught by the 'annunaki' which some say is a catch-all for e.t., but that theirs were reptilians. Solar gods, the most popular type, are often given attribute or relation to dragons, like inti-quetzalcoatl, the east asian dragon kings from heaven, the uraeus of egypt, and Mushushu of marduk, who is enlil, son of anu and part of the solar trinity. Also, hindus -who's solar Shiva has the king of nagas Shesha-, believe that fire has many forms, incuding flames, lightning, pure light, and the sun, which ties in to the targaryans nicely. (also targe-aryans, targe is a shield of solar symbology used by gaelics-germans, who are like the valyrians part of the core aryan race)
Blessings of the solar dragon's light
ēdrurzys and vēsperzys are nominative forms. forms heard in speech are in oblique cases
Seven blessings to you for this video my lord/lady
Seven blessings to you too
I love how the captions translate the high valyrian.
I love learning this language. They do keep the translations very well!
Очень красиво говорят и звучит когда Рейнирк с Демоном общается в тронном зале
Those dragon keepers who work in the dragon pits must be decendants of Valyrians or have dragon blood if the dragons listen and cooperate with them. And since they speak Valyrian fluently
I think it is less to do with the blood of the dragonkeepers, and more to do with the riders of the dragons. The dragons are smart, they understand that their riders entrust them to the care of these keepers who do not have the same bond with them. So I personally believe that the dragons only obey the dragonkeepers, and even then reluctantly, because it is the wish of their riders that they do. If a dragonkeeper and a rider of a dragon gave contrasting commands, the rider would be obeyed over the keeper.
@@willhyde5026 some of them could be dragonseeds recruited from Dragonstone, Driftmark and Kings Landing, I'm sure there's plenty of those around
@@liamcollins9183 hey can u tell me why valeryians can also ride the dragon like i am just watching house of the dragon first will watch got later i thought only targareyns can ride and control dragon?
@@IdkIdk-gw3qo it's not 100% clear if all Valyrian blood makes it easier to ride dragons or just blood from a dragonlord house like the Targaryens.
The Velaryons weren't dragon riders until the children of Corlys Velaryon and Rhaenys Targaryen, and the Celtigars and Qoherys' never rode dragons, so I'd lean towards needing blood from a dragonlord house.
The counter to this though, is Addam of Hull claiming Seasmoke, as he was a bastard of Corlys, with no Targaryen blood that we're aware of.
@@IdkIdk-gw3qo the real answer is that the Velaryon's are a vassal house of the Targaryen's, they both come from Valyria. Dragonstone and Driftmark are both at sea, these houses have had many generations of intermarrying. Seems like George R.R. Martin always had the Targaryen's split between the Red Keep and Dragonstone.
Rhaenyra, we was always meant to burn together! 🐉🔥🐉
That Vermithor scene tho ❤🔥❤🔥
00:06 he said "Doharas", but Aemond, Lucarys, and Dany say more likely to "Dohayres".
It kinda reflects how valyrian is like many european languages, or a more original and unseparated aryan tongue with reptilian mixed in. 'Do-hay-rahs' or 'Do-ha-ras' (Dohaeras) sounds closer to babylon-area semitic languages or maybe greek or germanic, and 'Do-hai-ras' or 'Do-hai-res' also could be eastern, but sounds phonetically pronounced, like latin. ("Hae"= Ha-eh / Ha-e ; like laetor 'la-e-tor' or 'laietor')

Love how Daemon pronounces the "y" as a german ü rather than an "ee" sound like the others
I'm still trying to figure out what Emma's Rhae says when the actual translation is "ñuho drīvo bē epvor lykemiluks. Va mōriot." (any questions regarding my claim would be silenced. Forever.). The actual subtitled translation is not that as well as her actual spoken Valyrian is different (my claim would not be so easily challenged). I'm in the middle of the Duolingo course but I could not find any of those words in DLP's wiki English/Valyrian dictionary that would be sufficient.
Trying to figure that out too.😅
Could you please write the whole dialogue in high valyrian
Please Iam trying to learn it but cannot find it anywhere
Would be a great help
Thanks
@@stoneydavid5189 Looks like someone above figured it out: "Ñuhys drīvo nāqopsa āhibiluks daor.". Ñuhys=My; drīvo = truth (in this form though it probably means reason); nāqopsa=basics (in this instance it probably means 'easy'); āhibiluks=to challenge; daor=this is always a negating phrase in HV, so 'not'..
@@RhaenyraT2001 turn on the CC in the video; the uploader here has provided the HV text above the English translation.
Can you make the same video for the conversations of season 2? 🙏🏻
I'm starting to think they had Lithuanian in mind when making this language.
If so, that’s amazing. I’m of Lithuanian descent and love this series
@@SpookyDisneyPrincess then I guess u can speak high valyrian then..??
@ I am in fact taking the course on Duolingo lol
@@SpookyDisneyPrincess wait, lemme get this straight, there's a language course on High Valyria if u want to learn..??
@ There is! It’s on Duolingo, I’m not even kidding. Among the normal language courses it offers, it also has Klingon.
dragon keepers speak it so much more natural
Milly speaks it closest to what the creator intended for it to sound like.
How do you know that? Did GRRM say that in an article?
@AndreCoelho-cd2zt totally. I don't why he looks like and sounds like he's speaking a real language but he does.
Listening in high valyrian ☺️
I wanna have the rhaenyra’s speech to daemon tattooed on my arm. The part where she says we are made of fire, we were always meant to burn together. But I can’t find the text in high valyrian. Does anybody know how it is spelled?
Saw this from another comment here. If you turn on the subtitles, Rhaenyra's speech is written in high valyrian and also translated to English
Please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 season 2 compilation!!!😢
3:27 I love her pronunciation here
Does anyone hear the daor at the end of %80 of the sentences lmao
Because it’s a grammatical negation. It means “not”, so obviously you’ll hear it a lot.
If you turn on the subtitles, it is actually translate Valyrian
" Look! It's Dr. Who and 10% Dany! " - QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!
Thanks for ending the video there
Bisa jāhor dohaeragon rūsīr issa valyrīha, kirimvose.👍
You know... it reminds me of the gibberish (but melodious) words in Hollow Knight. Well, the Pale King WAS a wyrm...
Emma kills it
I love that some of the best dialogues are in Valyrian
YOUVE GOTTA DO ONE FOR SEASON 2 PLEASE!!!!!
I waiting for High Valyrian Compilation Season 2
La única palabra que les reconozco es "Daor" y ni siquiera se que significa 😂😂😂
FYI, it means “no” or “not”, roughly translated. Usually put at the end of the sentence.
Didn't Rhaenyra and Daemon always, in their guts, want to marry each other?
I won’t be bother if this show was made in High valaryian and I have to read subtitles
21:07 No control over the dragons, both lost their dragons.
I envy people that speak trills…
Who here is logged on Duolingo, trying to learn this?
👇
The only thing I want to complain is vowel length. There is barely any vowel length distinction here at all... but props to the actors for pulling this off
i know!!!!!!! but i also get that for native english speakers it's kind of hard to get in running speech, but i think it wouldve been cool to hear!
My question is can the other Valyrian house, the velaryons, also understand high Valyrian? I assume rhaenys can because she was born and raised Targaryen, but idk about vaemond and corlys
Vaemond gave the ulegy In high valriyan so it's safe to assume that the Velaryons know it as well
Prinzessin rhaenys kann auch hochvalyrich. Dursch ihren Vater
learning until i can understand all this perfectly without subtitles
I will never get over how bad the dress at 0:55 is. All that money, an entire team of costumers and that’s what they came up with? Looks like it came from party city.
This is 200 years before Game of Thrones. Clothing tends to be "worse" in the past.
@@fauna5328 Clothing in the past actually had much more structure and were made of incredibly fine fabrics and materials. Look at what people were wearing 200 years ago compared to what we wear now. Much more luxurious. Whoever cut the pattern for that dress just didn’t know what they were doing. Thank god the second season had costumes that actually fit the actors.
right!? a targaryen princess dressed in what looks like a plastic potato sack lmao 💀
what happen to the scene with dragon keepers in opening?
Nothing happen bro
no when the dragon land and they walk it into the dragonpit@@michaelyohanes2782
Its where they park the dragons in King's Landing. The Dragonpit was made for the dragons and dragonkeepers are responsible for looking after them.@@championjdg
I love this show ❤❤❤
This is really cool but if they did this often then that deep cliff is gonna fill up with sarcophagi quick
Lucerys and Rhynaera young and old are the best..wish could have heard more from Lucerys...
Issa, Arli tõma gēlos issa.... 🎯
i believe that speaking the language in an Italian or Spanish accent is the right way to do it
I wonder how the green feel when the whole familly speak around them with out understand a word
Eliott and Emma are clearly the best ❤ Eliot has it so well we could presume Luke is totally fluent contrary to Jace.
Were Laenor and Laena’s ‘dracarys’s so bad that they just didn’t count? 😂
Edit: I made a ranking of the characters’ pronunciation for fun. This list isn’t the most fair for 2 reasons: 1) because sometimes I was comparing characters that only said one word to characters that had entire scenes of dialogue and therefore had more opportunities to mispronounce, and 2) because it doesn’t take into account how an actor can make the language feel more real because of the context of the scene (for instance, my second and fifth picks speak in ceremonial contexts, whereas the others speak in emotional and/or everyday conversations).
1. Dragonkeepers
2. Maester who married Rhaenyra and Daemon
3. Adult Rhaenyra
4. Older Lucerys (my personal favorite, brought down only by his pronunciation of ‘daor’)
5. Vaemond
6. Viserys
7. Young Rhaenyra
8. Older Jacerys
9. Maester teaching Older Jacerys
10. Daemon
11. Laena
12. Younger Jacerys
13. Younger Aemond
14. Older Aemond
15. Laenor
You and I are made of fire, we were meant to burn together ❤❤❤❤❤❤
i don't know how is the true pronounce sounds like but emma speaks like she's speaking russian language while milly speaks like some ancient language so i like hers more
I’ve only now realised that young Aemond looks more like young Aegon and young Aegon - a young Aemond.
Rahynerya and daemond with high Valyrian language is my Fav
Muito satisfatório ouvir a Milly falando em alto Valyriano
Thank youuu
