While we've been known to occasionally make up our own words, our guests in this week's special episode do it for a living. David J. Peterson and Jessie Peterson are professional linguists and conlangers—those are people who construct their own languages—and you've heard their work in Dune, Shadow & Bone, Elemental, Game of Thrones and, of course, The Witcher. What's involved in creating an all-new language? How long does the process take? How difficult is it to teach it to actors? And have they created any swear words of which they're particularly proud? (Look, you knew we were going to ask.) David and Jessie answer these questions and many more, while sharing secrets about the musical language they created for Sirens of the Deep. They even answer one of our burning questions about the film's ending, so while you may not end the episode fluent in the elder tongue, you WILL learn something new. You can find David J. Peterson on Bluesky and AO3 at @dedalvs and on Instagram at @athdavrazar. Jessie Peterson can be found at @quothalinguist on both Bluesky and Instagram, and her Conlang Year experience can be found at quothalinguist.com. Watch David and Jessie conlang live at @LangTimeStudio on YouTube.

On this week's episode of "Sights & Sounds," language creator David J. Peterson gives his arts and culture suggestions happening in the Bay Area.

Back in 2018, I interviewed language creator David J. Peterson about how he invented Dothraki for Game of Thrones and other fictional languages in fantasy worlds. David and his wife Jessie just finished a huge project – developing the Fremen language for Dune: Part Two. I talk with the couple about their creative process and the challenge of imagining simple English phrases in the Chakobsa language that Frank Herbert imagined in his Dune novels. We also hear my 2018 episode, “Do You Speak Conlang?” where I also talked with Marc Okrand, inventor of the Klingon language, and Robyn Stewart, a language consultant for Star Trek: Discovery. Plus, Jen Usellis -- a.k.a. Klingon Pop Warrior -- will give you a serious case of earworms (not the kind from Wrath of Khan.) For more episodes about Dune, check out my 2017 episode The Book of Dune, where I talked with Muslim fans of the series about the way Frank Herbert incorporated aspects of Islam into the books. And in 2021, I did an episode called The Ecology of Dune where I looked at the environmental messages in the books and whether Frank Herbert's environmental sensibilities still hold up today.

He's created languages for many television shows and films, such as HBO's GAME OF THRONES, the CW's THE 100, Netflix's THE WITCHER, and Marvel's DOCTOR STRANGE.

Vier Landes- und zahlreiche Fremdsprachen, dazu die Dialekte: Eine immense Vielfalt in Schrift und Ton prägt den hiesigen Alltag. Das ist faszinierend, aber auch herausfordernd. Wie gelingt das Verständnis? Wo hapert es? Eine Tour d'Horizon von der Schweizer Fussball-Nati bis zum Sprachen-Erfinder. Moderatorin Eva Wannenmacher macht sich auf nach Biel/Bienne. In der grössten zweisprachigen Stadt der Schweiz trifft sie Dominique Antenen. Er zelebriert das Zusammenspiel zwischen Deutsch und Französisch in beeindruckender Manier auf dem Lokalsender «TeleBielingue». Und das seit 20 Jahren. Gleichzeitig bereist Sven Ivanic verschiedene Sprachregionen des Landes. Der siebensprachige Comedian unterhält sich mit Menschen vor Ort und fragt mit seinem Sprachquiz «Verstehen Sie Schweiz?». Den Schweizer Fussballnationalteams stattet die Sendung ebenfalls einen Besuch ab. Die Auswahlen der Frauen und Männer bilden eine Schweiz en miniature, vereinen sie doch ganz viele Sprachen, Kulturen und Mentalitäten. Wie verstehen und verständigen sich dabei die prominenten Namen? Genauso wie mehrere Mitglieder der Nationalteams hat Shqipe Sylejmani kosovarische Wurzeln und lebt schon von klein auf hierzulande. Ihre Biografie verdeutlicht: Mehrsprachigkeit verbindet, kann allerdings auch trennen. Obwohl sie perfekt Schweizerdeutsch spricht, bekommt sie immer mal wieder zu spüren, dass sie immigriert ist. Was es heisst, verschiedene Kulturen und Sprachen zu «leben», hat sie im Roman «Bürde & Segen» verarbeitet – der nun eine Fortsetzung erfährt. Eine fremde Sprache zu lernen, ist das eine. Eine Sprache komplett neu zu entwickeln, das andere. David J. Peterson hat genau dies getan – für die Kult-Serie «Game of Thrones» und deren Fortsetzung «House of the Dragons», die die Vorgeschichte erzählt. Sie sind Teil eines Reigens von Fantasy-Stoffen, die mit einer Kunstsprache aufwarten. Vom US-Amerikaner will «Kulturplatz» wissen: Wie funktioniert das eigentlich, eine Sprache mit mehreren tausend Wörtern und eigener Grammatik zu erfinden?

Ever wonder how languages are created?

Grab your stake and crucifix pendant, we're going vampire-hunting! Well, vampire-etymology-hunting. The podcast Buffering the Vampire Slayer, which recaps the TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode by episode, invited me to answer their listeners' questions of language that the show had provoked. Together with BVTS hosts Kristin Russo and Jenny Owen Youngs, I tackle the etymology of coven, vampire/vampyre, wigging out, the name Buffy and Bovril; as well as google as a verb, conlang on TV, and why Latin is so often the language of spells and spookiness.

In keeping with the trend of having guests on to talk about things OTHER than their usual, I am THRILLED to have on Episode 3 special guest David J. Peterson, language creator of (among others) the Valyrian and Dothraki languages for HBO's "Game of Thrones." David and I discuss something we were both really excited about, our tastes in MUSIC and the songs that we are most glad exist. Everything from The Carpenters to Oingo Boingo, Stratovarius to Hootie and the Blowfish, Amberian Dawn, Poets of the Fall, and many more are mentioned. Buckle up, and tune in for some great conversation.

This week's episode of Amped Up Radio features David J. Peterson, language creator (conlanger) of the Game of Thrones series (Dothraki & High Valyrian), The 100 (Trigedasleng), Defiance (Kastithanu, L'Irathi, Indojisnen, and Kinuk'aaz), Thor: The Dark World (Shiväisith). David is also the author of The Art of Language Invention and Living Language Dothraki and hosts the LangTime Studio on YouTube, where he and Dr. Jessie Sams work to create conlang projects live. We dive into how David became involved with conlang during his undergraduate years at Berkeley, his contributions to the languages in Game of Thrones and The 100, as well as his upcoming works–Dune and The Witcher, to name a few.QuotesThe language I created for The 100 (Trigedasleng) is supposed to be a futuristic version of English that is influenced by the history, takes place in that show in the present day and 150 years in the future. It’s still English and it was intentionally influenced by English in that every word from it comes from English, but in terms of how meanings have shifted, how the grammar has shifted, how the sound has shifted that part was original–it’s an original revolution of English [6:45 - 7:24] The problem of Valyrian is that it’s the language of a dead culture, and a people and a place that have been destroyed. You certainly see echos of it throughout the books, there are ripples of it everywhere, but we don’t ever actually get to see this is what it was like to be a Valyrian speaker in the Valyrian Freehold at that time. Contrasted with Dothraki, where you see a lot of it–a lot of what the Dothraki people do in the books… I felt much more confident in saying this probably fits with Dothraki culture, this is probably what something the Dothraki would do. There is next to nothing to go on for the Valyrians. [16:10 - 17:04] Follow David J. PetersonTwitter: @dedalvsYouTube: https://bit.ly/langtimestudioWebsite: https://artoflanguageinvention.com/

When fantasy TV shows need an alien or elf to speak a fictional language, most writers make up a few foreign-sounding words to pad the script and move on. But that won't cut it when it comes to Game of Thrones, a show with details as deep as its fandom. So when George R. R. Martin and the show's producers needed to build complete, functional languages for Dothraki riders and Valyrian-speaking slavers, they turned to real-life linguist and "conlanger" David J. Peterson. He transformed a handful of phrases from Martin's books into the grammatically complete languages we hear on HBO today. Alli and Jen chat with Peterson (mostly in English!) about his love of languages, the process of building them from scratch, infusing fictional languages with fictional culture, his email correspondence with George R. R. Martin, and how the complexities of producing TV's most ambitious show affected his phonetic and linguistic choices — including a little-known error in season 8! Alli and Jen also speak with a Game of Thrones super fan who is currently learning High Valyrian from the language app Duolingo, which has more than 800,000 users actively learning the fictional language. Minor spoiler warning: While mostly focused on linguistics, this episode contains general discussions of characters, cultures, and events in Game of Thrones. Special thanks to Michelle Jaworski.

On this episode of the podcast, we interview a language creator who has created languages for movies like Bright, Dr. Strange, Thor: The Dark World, and is most known for his role in HBO's Game of Thrones as the creator of Dothraki.

Sci-fi fantasy worlds often use constructed languages (or conlangs for short) as a worldbuilding tool that can make us believe the characters come from an ancient or alien culture. But art can take on a life of its own once it's released into the world -- and so do languages. Marc Okrand, inventor of the Klingon language, and David J. Peterson, inventor of the Dothraki language and The 100's Trigedasleng, talk about the surprises they encountered. I also talk with Lawrence M. Schoen of the Klingon Language Institute and Robyn Stewart, the language consultant for Star Trek: Discovery, about why the Klingon culture spilled over into the real world. And Jen Usellis -- a.k.a. Klingon Pop Warrior -- will give you a serious case of earworms, and we're not talking about the mind-controlling earworms from Star Trek II. To hear Matt Fiddler's episode from Very Bad Words on cursing in conlangs:http://www.verybadwords.com/shows/constructed-curses-in-sci-fi-fantasy Learn more about your ad choices.

When you think about the future of language, you might worry that we’ll all walk around speaking in weird code. Or perhaps that we won’t speak at all, instead just texting each other all day. But fear not! In this episode of Futuropolis, we discover that the spoken word (and words in general) aren’t going anywhere. They’re just morphing in cool and crazy ways. To figure out technology’s role in the future of language, we talk to Fred Benenson, the author of How to Speak Emoji and Emoji Dick, as well as Jerome Pesenti, who’s working with IBM Watson to improve the language abilities of artificial intelligence. And to discover how the past informs the future, we dug into some particularly entertaining archival musings about universal languages and whether slang can really ruin English as we know it. For a glimpse at which languages will survive the test of time, and what the world will be speaking in the future, we talk to renowned linguist and political commentator John McWhorter (who you may know from his discussion on the racially charged meaning of the word “thug” following the Baltimore riots). Plus: Don’t miss our conversation with David J. Peterson, the man who creates fictitious languages for Hollywood movies and shows like Game of Thrones.

The Linguistic Big Rip; by Charlie Saygone; From Volume CLIX, Number 3 of Speculative Grammarian, July 2010. — In the June 2010 issue, Block claims that there is an impending “Linguistic Big Crunch.” I am appalled that SpecGram would allow such tripe to be published. (Read by David J. Peterson.)

Towards a Perfect Definition of the Term “Sign”; by Louis Capet; From Volume I, Number 3 of Better Words and Morphemes, The Journal of the Linguistic Society of South-Central New Caledonia, May 1991. — Saussure defined the sign as the union of the signifier and the signified. Steinmetz emphasized the importance of the interactional element. Burma-Shave proposed that a sign could only be understood in the context of adjacent signs. Modern linguistics has elaborated the concept of the sign system. (Read by David J. Peterson.)

The Linguistics Wars; by Dæriam Landec, Ph.D., l’École de SpecGram, Istanbul; From Volume CLI, Number 1 of Speculative Grammarian, January 2006. — As is widely known—though not exhaustively covered in the linguistic, academic, or mainstream press—an unfortunate series of events that have become widely known as “The Linguistics Wars” unfolded in Montana in the spring of 2005. Over the course of a few days, several devastating attacks were launched between the Montana Morphemic Militia (or M³)—a group that has been variously described as a linguistic-oriented paramilitary organization and a military-oriented paralinguistic organization—and the Montana field office of the First Earth Battalion (or F.E.B.)—a formerly secret but still active unit of the U.S. Army established in the late 1970s to exploit paranormal and other alternative forms of military intervention. (Read by Trey Jones, Joey Whitford, Bill Spruiell, David J. Peterson, Kristin Franco, Colleen Barry, and Brendan “Schnookywookums” O’Toole.)

Phonological Theory and Language Acquisition; by Notker Balbulus, Monastery of St. Gall; From Volume CXLVIII, Number 2, of Speculative Grammarian, January 1998. — Gildea has argued that modern phonological theorizing suffers from a tendency toward over application of a particular insight. That is, a particular theory is developed to deal with a particular sort of problem, which it handles well.
