Mandarin for Gnomish?

I vote Dutch for dwarvish. As a brazilian , portuguese could be gnomish or smth
yeah, portuguese does fit gnomes

My last DM got mad at me and almost kicked me out of the group because I wanted to create a rogue mage warrior priest with a backstory that he was a mexican immigrant names Jose.
The problem wasn’t even Jose, it was your refusal to pick a class.

I’m not going to say that affecting an accent for a language one doesn’t speak is inherently racist…but it can get there pretty fast.

I used esperanto as elvish

spanish is draconic? i thought we all agreed that draconic is german
edit: also as a brazilian, portuguese is too goofy for abyssal
Brazilian Portuguese is too “melodic” for abyssal, but some European Portuguese accents can work.

In the game I’m playing, goblins have thick New York accents. If my creepy-ass lizard person dies, I might switch to that, or a Nordic elf with a thick Swedish accent.

Sylvan should be Old Spanish like the faun in Pans Labyrinth

Gnomish should be more artificial. Esperanto.

I’ve always been a fan of that trope. I like to do a Brooklyn goblin from time to time.

Man, I should watch that again. It’s been ages.

Esperanto is more like Common. A language that everyone speaks, more or less, can only be something from an imperialist power or a neutral ground created for that.

In a homebrew setting still in construction, Volapük is the language of a secret society.

Its funny how Michael Meyers decided ogres are Scottish and Scottish people are kind of ok with it.

Oh absolutely, Common is always Esperanto in my games with something like its history mapped onto whatever world I’m running. That leaves space for regional languages to be everything else.
