Current Status of Old Tongue Wiki
The Old Tongue Wiki is a fan site which captures my attempt to document, as best as I can, the Old Tongue language which began in the Wheel of Time book series and then was massively expanded by Naomi Joy Todd in the Amazon TV series. It is in progress and while I have converged a lot towards a more stable presentation, much is still subject to change as I continue to examine the show's scenes and dive deeper into the Old Tongue.
Rather than give an extensive vision of everything I might do here, I want to just list out the immediate goals which are currently being worked on:
- Create a page for every scene that has Old Tongue dialogue in it (mostly done, missing a couple of minor short phrases spoken in a single line)
- Create a page for every word I can parse out of any piece of canon material (Done except for in some scenes where words remain that only appear in a single scene and thus are extremely hard to isolate in meaning and form)
- Document the pronunciation and phonetics of every scene and song with audible Old Tongue (~50% done)
- Document as much of the more obvious grammar as possible (hard to know, but let's say ~30% done based on Palye and the work on verb morphology I've done, plus scene and song analyses)
- Make videos/podcasts going into more speculative analysis (planned but not yet begun)
