OverviewEdit

Here's my Original Research on Dwemeris because original research is not allowed on Lore pages. Everything here will eventually be properly sourced!

This won't be written professionally at all but I'll try to fix that in the future, right now I'm dumping my notes here

Analysis of Calcelmo's StoneEdit

In this table, I will compare the Dwemeri and Falmeri parts of Calcelmo's Stone in game, as well as the out of game English (Tamrielic) translation provided by Kurt Kuhlmann[UOL 1]. Note that Falmeri is basically identical to Ayleidoon. Bold and Italic text in the same sections of the text means those words have the same meaning. Strikethrough text means those words can be omitted from the translation(s) as there's either no (known) way to translate them, or they become obsolete upon translation.

Tamrielic And so it was that your people were given passage to our steam gardens, and the protections of our power.
Dwemeri Chun thuamer arkngd chend duathand, th ahvardn btham.
Falmeri Ye sa sou meldi calne tarn va nou molagnenseli, ye trumbi nou bala.
Tamrielic Many of your people had perished under the roaring, snow-throated kings of Mora, and your wills were broken, and we heard you, and sent our machines against your enemies, to thereby take you under.
Dwemeri Amz thuamer ahrkanch kemelmzulchond aka Mora, th thuangz ahrk, th duum melz thuabtharng, th kanthaln duabcharn mzin thuastur, btharumz thua mer zel.
Falmeri Ilpen av sou meldi nagaiale as guntumnia, spantelepe-laelia arani Morae, ye sou liebali racuvane, ye nu rautane sye, ye nu hautalle nou buroi gume sou gravuloi, sa metane sye garlis.
Tamrielic Only by the grace of the Dwemer did your culture survive, and only by the fifteen-and-one tones did your new lives begin.
Dwemeri Abakch duumarkng tuathumz amakai, th abakch avatlehed kagr tuamkingth mzan.
Falmeri Frey as gandra Dwemera tarcellane sou agea, ye frey as emeratis Avatheledia carelle sou anyamissi bisia silya.
Tamrielic We do not desire thanks, for we do not believe in it.
Dwemeri Du chal fahl ngark, che du fahl bthun ur.
Falmeri Nu hecta sou arcten, rias nu nemalauta ge.
Tamrielic We do not ask for gratitude, for we do not believe in it.
Dwemeri Du chal fahl ngalft, che du (fahl) bthun ur.
Falmeri Nu hecta sou epegandra, rias nu nemalauta ge.
Tamrielic We only request you partake of the symbol of our bond, the fruit of our stones.
Dwemeri Du abak chal thu abazun nchur duabthar, nchul duanchard.
Falmeri Nu frey sepa sye arcta varlor denai, cullei noue staneia.
Tamrielic And as your vision clouds, as the darkness sets in, fear not.
Dwemeri Th ur thuanchuth irknd, ur irkngth eftardn, thunch fahlz.
Falmeri Ye ry sou alasil auta, ry loria shanta, abagaiavoy.
Tamrielic Know only our mercy and the radiance of our affection, which unbinds your bones to the earth before, and sets your final path to the music of your new eternity.
Dwemeri Bthun abak dua mzual th nchuan duarkng, chun fahlbthar thuanchardch anum ralz, th eftar thuachendraldch kagren thua vanchningth.
Falmeri Malautavoy frey nou darre ye alata nou malae, asma moraga sou anyamis av sercen pado, ye gethena sou wend narilia vey emeratu sou oia bisia.
