Here's a new thread, I guess.
------
Idioms
Sol akaan'ade sol dha'werda.
- A tactic about hiding one's numbers, now a general metaphor for deception.
Senaar o'r buurenaar.
- A statement regarding one's agency, or lack thereof, and position within a tumultuous environment. A bird, being a symbol of the Trickster, being subjected to the winds of the Trickster. Fate dictates which direction you are meant to go, but you have the ability to try to fly in a different direction.
Proverbs
Krayte nu'parji akaane.
- Superweapons or miracle war machines do not guarantee the outcome of battle. This is also a call back to how mere mortals conquered the superior and mystical Mythosaurs.
Kad ori'kad'la nu'hokaani.
- To overdo something where the extra effort is actually negative.
Euphemisms
Kadas'ika
- Fully-fledged, but still new and inexperienced, perhaps even cocky and smug, warriors.
Bes'kaabir beskar.
- Internal conflict. When Mandalorians fight Mandalorians.
