Haradric language

''[I]t went without saying that most of their accents would identify them immediately as Gondorians. Thus they continued to sweat over such things as cadence, caste-forms, aspirants (blended and otherwise), half-vowels, and the all-important control of breath that Haradric demanded'' - Reconciliation, chapter 6

Representing an imaginary language
The Best-loved Sons universe has tried to represent Haradric in two ways: either through changing phrasing in English to try occasionally to suggest, by faking a "syntatical accent," a language other than Westron or Sindarin (e.g., Kin-strife); or by resorting to words and phrases that are not English.

Of the latter strategy, there have been two approaches.

Soledad, in her contributions to the Best-loved Sons universe, has generally drawn from real-world languages, such as pre-Islamic-era Persian and ancient Turkish, to represent Haradric-specific ideas, ranks, peoples, and locations.

Dwimordene, in her contributions, has tended to invent Haradric words and grammar at need, and makes use of two dialects of Haradric (Ta'alsheen and a standard dialect mostly represented by Andrahar's speech), both of which have been represented even if not always identified as different dialects.


 * Standard Haradric: Andrahar:p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }Ahi paiyar dinh, n'ha tarkil-i Gon'dharoi (I follow them now, the people of Gondor.)


 * "Lhaliva bhredina mhur." (Unknown meaning.)


 * Ta'alsheen Haradric: Ena uban za'an ahn-bairtan halota'ane din: Ta'alsheen Haradric: “The under-that-sun-not-born.”


 * “Mhašo, mhašo! Ahna bel-ašetin – hašilan na bhila'an hurot.” (Unknown meaning.)

Meta
Dwimordene develops Haradric both in Best-loved Sons stories and in fics that aren't attached to that arc, and keeps her own word doc on the language to help keep her Haradric more or less consistent.
