Instead of this, say THIS: A crowdsourced language/word guide for writing in the ASOIAF universe by Its_Rhaenin_Time

Summary
There are so many phrases and words used in the ASOIAF universe that we would not intuitively use in everyday life. It's hard to keep track! So I decided to start making this "Instead of this - say this" guide for avoiding anachronisms. Comment below any phrases/replacements that YOU'VE noticed!
Note: Vocabulary used in the final two seasons of Game of Thrones does not count as canon/era-appropriate language... you know why.

Guide to Beta Reading (for Authors and Beta Readers) by theirprofoundbond
Fandoms: No Fandom

Summary
A thorough guide to beta reading for both authors and beta readers. Neither exhaustive nor definitive, but hopefully a good starting point that covers the basics and explains how to get the most out of an author-beta reader relationship.
[February 2025: Minor edits and additions throughout the guide.]

Summary
This is the various conlang dialogue I translated for HBO's House of the Dragon. The main language featured in the show is High Valyrian. The High Valyrian language is technically an a posteriori artlang based on words and ideas that come from George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, but the language is probably better understood as a priori with some input from a second author.
