What Urist Said

Adds (and in a few cases, modifies) vocabulary for a broader dictionary in game. When installed, you may find that it needs to be situated above ‘vanilla’ languages to work.

There is a git repository that describes this in terms of the old dwarf fort, but it requires few tweaks to work with the steam edition: https://github.com/jeturcotte/What-Urist-Said …. I do plan on making an interactive site where folk can suggest additions and corrections more dynamically, but that’s still a brainfart at this time.

For now, a history of what’s in it:

* word fixes
* found that MOLTEN was in there twice… so lost MELT and merged MOLTEN
* word additions
* DEFY (adjective and verb)
* RELY (adjective and verb)
* RESOLVE (noun, adjective and verb)
* VALOR (noun and adjective)

* more language stuff, a lot of which is job and worker related, introducing a basic language system
* wherein:
* in dwarven, (word) is the job and (word)it is the worker
* in elven, (word) is the job and (word)we is the worker
* in goblin, (word) is the job and (word)ux is the worker
* in human, (word) is the job and (word)ith is the worker
* thus adding more words:
* AMBUSH and AMBUSHER
* APPRAISE and APPRAISER
* BOWYER (to supplement and repair BOW)
* BREWER (to supplement BREW)
* BURNER (to supplement BURN)
* CAP (not a job or a worker)

* CARPENTER and CARPENTRY

* HERB and HERBALIST
