Learn Mando'a

For specifically the /æ/ phoneme, the difficulty lies in guessing which words get the /æ/ sound instead of /a/. KT didn't distinguish them in her phonetic spellings. She gives the rule that an "a" between two consonants becomes an /æ/, so you could extrapolate from that rule even though the only exp...

I know it's a month late, but I went down the same road about a year ago. It takes a lot of effort, so oya for undertaking it! If you wanna do the whole thing to better familiarize yourself with the language I can heartily say it's effective for developing a feel for words. If you simply want an end...

Kandosii, Ray! This is an awesome first go. Gonna go line by line. >Shattered Sabre ----- Shuk’la Kad’au I already thought the title was cool, but the translation makes me sit up because you're invoking a lightsaber specifically. After reading the poem, I suspect this is about the Darksaber? > A fac...

Update for Book of Boba Fett (minor spoilers) In season 1, episode 4 of Book of Boba Fett, we can see several displays of Slave I's console. There are aesthetic updates, but I'm pleased to say that the Mandalorian script persists! Although there is much less overall, the "O" in the upper-right hand...

Olarom miit'hibir! That's how I worked into language familiarity too, first translating the canon songs and then translating songs from other languages into mando'a.

Su'cuy an! I've been researching the various Mandalorian alphabets that have been used in official Star Wars publications, so I figured I'd consolidate all my research here for anyone interested.

olarom mandozata! ni briikase kar'taylir gar.

Vor'e! It took me a couple months. The About tab shows you the general timeline actually!

Olarom, Circadiana! I love TMS and TCW too, would love to see your art for it. The baat has a classroom server link hiding out in one of their resource channels, so be sure to hop in there as well, it's usually gets updated with Mando'a resources before the main server. Super cool that you do music ...

Su'cuy vode! I put together a spreadsheet of every instance of Mando'a words in the Republic Commando books. It's sortable, by Word, Meaning, Source, Pg Number, and Context (the sentence the word the appears in). Still adding Legacy of the Force and other published works that have Mando'a in it. Hop...

Su'cuy, I'm in a number of Discords that are partially or completely focused on Mando'a and I figured it was about time I joined the OG forum. Been building resources that others might find helpful.
