In the first two seasons of Game of Thrones, we heard the language of the horse-riding warrior Dothraki people (and here are seven fun facts about that language). The next two seasons introduced Valyrian, a group of languages worked out to a much greater degree than is evident on the show by language creator David Peterson.

According to Game of Thrones' staff linguist, David Peterson, 'he's actually saying a Low Valyrian translation of the French guy's insults in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Game of Thrones Dialogue Navigation: Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, Season 4, Season 5, Season 6, Season 7, Season 8. During the fifth season of Game of Thrones, High Valyrian (HV), Astapori Valyrian (AV), Meereenese Valyrian (MV), and/or Mag Nuk (MN) spoken dialogue was featured in all ten episodes. That dialogue is shown below. High Valyrian is the most likely source language for maegi (pronounced differently from 'Maggy'), which means 'wise'. The Valyrian writing system, or at least a Valyrian writing system, is described as involving glyphs. It was also probably standard practice to write on scrolls, and not in books.

High Valyrian is a language originating from Valyria and the Valyrian Freehold. Corrupted dialects known as bastard Valyrian are spoken in the Free Cities[1] and Slaver's Bay.[2]

History

Some of the oldest remaining ancient texts were written by Andals, Valyrians, Ghiscari, and Asshai'i.[3] After the Old Empire of Ghis was conquered by the Valyrian Freehold in the Ghiscari wars, the Ghiscari began speaking the High Valyrian of their conquerors.[4]

High Valyrian is no longer widely spoken due to the Doom of Valyria,[5] and most Valyrian records were destroyed in the catastrophe.[6] The tongues of the Free Cities have continued to evolve from the original High Valyrian.[5]

Queen Alysanne Targaryen is said to have begun learning how to read from Valyrian scrolls while still at the breast of her mother, Queen Alyssa Velaryon.[7] Alysanne's husband, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen, was fascinated with the Old Valyrian scrolls in the library of Dragonstone.[8]

Racallio Ryndoon is said to have spoken a dozen dialects of Valyrian.[9] Lord Alyn Velaryon studied Valyrian treaties about warship design and sea tactics when he visited the Citadel.[9]Larra Rogare, the wife of Prince Viserys Targaryen, was fluent in High Valyrian and the dialects of Lys, Myr, Tyrosh, and Volantis.[10]

Some highborn children of Westeros are still taught Valyrian as a sign of their noble education.[11][12] Songs[13] and scrolls[14][15] are still sung and read in High Valyrian, although by 300 AC most Westerosi nobles cannot understand the language.[13]

High Valyrian

Language

The High Valyrian phrase valar morghulis‎[16] is translated as 'all men must die.'[17] A counterpart phrase, valar dohaeris,[18] is translated as 'all men must serve.'[19]

The word dracarys is translated as meaning 'dragonfire.'[20] Obsidian is called 'dragonglass' in the Common Tongue, but 'frozen fire' in High Valyrian.[21]Valonqar is the word for 'little brother.'[22] High Valyrian is the most likely source language for maegi (pronounced differently from 'Maggy'),[23] which means 'wise'.[24]

The Valyrian writing system, or at least a Valyrian writing system, is described as involving glyphs.[25] It was also probably standard practice to write on scrolls, and not in books.[26] The glyphs can also be inscribed, as on an old Valyrian dragon horn, which, when sounded, had 'every line and letter shimmering with white fire.'[27] Valyrian carvings have been found on obelisks.[28]

Valyrian steel is forged with spells, as well as hammers.[29] Some smiths still know them, although not entirely.[30]

Names

House Targaryen came from Valyria and thus most of its members can be considered to have High Valyrian names. These include:

  • Aegon
  • Aelor
  • Aelora
  • Aelyx
  • Aemon
  • Aemond
  • Aenar
  • Aenys
  • Aerea
  • Aerion[26]
  • Aeryn
  • Aerys
  • Alysanne[31]
  • Ayrmidon[14]
  • Baela
  • Baelon
  • Baelor
  • Daella
  • Daemion
  • Daemon
  • Daena
  • Daenerys[32]
  • Daenora
  • Daenys
  • Daeron
  • Elaena
  • Gael
  • Gaemon
  • Helaena
  • Jaehaera
  • Jaehaerys
  • Maegelle
  • Maegon
  • Maegor
  • Maekar
  • Maelys[33]
  • Naerys
  • Rhae
  • Rhaegar
  • Rhaegel
  • Rhaella
  • Rhaelle

  • Saera
  • Shaena
  • Shaera
  • Vaegon
  • Vaella
  • Valarr
  • Valerion
  • Visenya
  • Viserra
  • Viserys

Houses Baratheon, Celtigar, Qoherys, and Velaryon are of Valyrian descent, and thus these names are possibly Valyrian as well.[34][35]

Velaryon first names include:

  • Aethan
  • Corlys
  • Daenaera
  • Jacaerys
  • Laena
  • Laenor
  • Lucerys
  • Monterys
  • Vaemond
  • Valaena

Jaenara Belaerys was a Valyrian explorer[36] and Aurion was a would-be emperor.[37]

The Valyrians most likely gave Valyrian names to their dragons, as the dragons Balerion, Meraxes, Vhagar, and Syrax were named after Valyrian gods and goddesses.[38][39] However, not all dragons of House Targaryen had Valyrian names (e.g., Queen Alysanne Targaryen's dragon, Silverwing[31]).

Eight of the nine Free Cities were founded as colonies of the Valyrian Freehold, and are thus likely to bear Valyrian names as well:

Volantis's satellite towns of Selhorys, Valysar, and Volon Therys likely have Valyrian names as well. It is also probable that Elyria, Mantarys, Oros, Tolos, Tyria, and Velos are Valyrian in name, being cities close to Old Valyria.[40]

Bastard Valyrian

Free Cities

Bastard Valyrian includes the languages of the nine Free Cities.[1] Each of the cities has its own dialect, and each dialect likely has its own separate derived vocabulary. Syrio Forel of Braavos speaks the Common Tongue with a lilting accent.[41] One of the Brave Companions is described as having a thick Myrish accent.[42]

The Free Cities use glyphs to write Valyrian.[43] The Valyrian of the Free Cities is described as sounding 'liquid'.[44]

Slaver Cities

The Old Empire of Ghis was conquered by the Valyrian Freehold five thousand years ago, and the Ghiscari have since spoken High Valyrian. The Slaver's Bay cities of Yunkai, Meereen, and Astapor have their own versions of bastard Valyrian, which have been influenced mainly by Old Ghiscari, the ancient language of Old Ghis. Like the Free Cities, the people of the Slaver Cities use glyphs to write Valyrian.[2]

Astapori Valyrian is described as having a 'characteristic growl,' influenced by Ghiscari.[2] The dialect of Yunkai is close enough to that of Astapor to be mutually intelligible.[45]

Yunkai used to be part of the Old Empire of Ghis, and has multiple languages spoken in the city. Mhysa, Maela, Aelalla, Qathei, and Tato are given as words for 'mother', but which tongue fits which word is unknown (excepting the first, which is Ghiscari).[45]

Some slavers speak a mongrel tongue,[46] a blend of Old Ghiscari and High Valyrian.[47]

Characters familiar with High Valyrian

  • Gerris Drinkwater speaks a halting approximation of High Valyrian.[12]
  • Haldon Halfmaester[48]
  • Tyrion Lannister learned to read High Valyrian on his maester's knee.[11]
  • Quentyn Martell can read and write High Valyrian but has little practice speaking it.[12]
  • Melisandre is known to pray in High Valyrian, the Common Tongue, and the speech of Asshai.[49]
  • Missandei[17]
  • Moqorro can apparently sing in High Valyrian.[50]
  • Septa Saranella tells Cersei Lannister the meaning of valonqar.[22]
  • Ser Barristan Selmy has some High Valyrian, though not as much as Daenerys Targaryen.[2]
  • Arya Stark knows some High Valyrian[51] but the kindly man insists that she improve it.[52]
  • Catelyn Stark considers the speech of Moreo Tumitis of Tyrosh to be the vulgar Valyrian of the Free Cities.[53]
  • Sweets is fluent in High Valyrian[54]
  • Aegon Targaryen is fluent in High Valyrian.[12]
  • Daenerys Targaryen[2]
  • Samwell Tarly only has a little High Valyrian.[55]
  • The closest thing the Windblown have to a company tongue is classic High Valyrian.[56] Their leader, the Tattered Prince, says 'and now we ride' to his men in the language.[56]

Quotes

Each of the Free Cities has its own history and character, and each has come to have its own tongue. These are all corruptions of the original, pure form of High Valyrian, dialects that drift further from their origin with each new century since the Doom befell the Freehold.[5]

Behind the Scenes

According to George R. R. Martin,

Tolkien was a philologist, and an Oxford don, and could spend decades laboriously inventing Elvish in all its detail. I, alas, am only a hardworking SF and fantasy novel[sic], and I don't have his gift for languages. That is to say, I have not actually created a Valyrian language. The best I could do was try to sketch in each of the chief tongues of my imaginary world in broad strokes, and give them each their characteristic sounds and spellings.[57]

David J. Peterson further developed High Valyrian for the television adaptation Game of Thrones.

The Language of the Dragons

'A Song of Ice and Fire' the Valyrian Language was later extended by David J. Peterson for HBO's 'Game Of Thrones' adaption.
In the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, High Valyrian occupies a cultural niche similar to that of Classical Latin in medieval Europe. The novels describe it as no longer being used as a language of everyday communication, but rather as a language of learning and education among the nobility of Essos and Westeros, with much literature and song composed in Valyrian.
