I fully adore Kane's newest audio I don't think you understand it is everything omgggg I keep going back to the part where Kane's speaking in his native language over and over because it sounds so cool!!! I don't know how to describe it but it sounds like a real language?? I know it's not actually a real language but it just sounds so natural coming from him?? Did you actually create a whole language or is it just random made up words? Either way it turned out wonderful!!
Thank you so much, I'm glad to hear you've enjoyed it! I had a lot of fun with that part lol
I haven't made an entire language for him and Dion yet (knowing myself it probably will happen someday lmao) but I've had some general grammar/pronunciation rules ever since I started naming various things from their reality
Like they don't have 2nd person pronouns in their dialect, so the "you" is either implied or they use someone's name or title to address them. There's some common prefixes/suffixes for things too. There's also a lot of th's and z's and sh's because that sounds like fire and I thought it'd be fun lol
As for what he says in the video, I didn't make direct translations of everything he says, but there's some words that I kind of singled out and gave a purpose lol. Like "sortem" means "do you understand?" While "sem" is a shortened/more informal version, similar to saying "got it?" (There's a full translation in the pinned comment of that video if you haven't seen it)
