:If you check out the [[Ancient Laudean Lexicon]], you'll see that "jiu" is the word for "snow", not "man". su'lade is "male" or "man". This may screw up your following argument. ALSO, I was thinking that there could be three levels of language - Modern Laudean, Old Laudean, and Ancient Laudean. There would be a huge gap between the Ancient and the Old (via "dark ages") and so words and meanings get changed. Modern would be much closer to simply Old Laudean. Thoughts? -[[User:Varaan|Varaan]], 20 MAR 2006, 16:16 EST

It also seems like three times more work than to simply create one language, so personally I'd advocate listing a modern version of the word everytime it is created in the Ancient tongue.
