Road to Tar Valon Naomi Joy Todd Interview
In 2023, the YouTube channel Road to Tar Valon interviewed dialect coach and language coordinator to the Wheel of Time TV show, Naomi Joy Todd. This interview covered highly pertinent linguistic worldbuilding of the Old Tongue. The full transcript is reproduced with permission here.
-ye suffix
-ye is a grammatical suffix in Old Tongue which modifies a word from a material meaning to an immaterial meaning. When applied to numbers, it shifts from counting physical objects to counting abstract concepts. When applied to other words, it often signals the use of a word as a metonym — as when banta (seat) becomes bantye (throne).
