Dragon (language)

(This is the page for Dragon, a language. You may be looking for the species, or the cat named Dragon.)

Dragon is the language spoken by Pyrrhian dragons, and later by Pantalans as well. It was formally named in The Lost Continent.

There is an old language as well, but the name of the old language is unknown. In The Lost Continent prologue, when Clearsight arrives, it is stated that the Pantalan dragons speak the old language and only a few Pantalan dragons speak the 'dragon' language. As Luna and Jerboa could understand each other in the epilogue of The Lost Continent, it is proven that Pantalans now use Dragon to speak. Some dragons may still know the old language, but choose to use the present one.

It was referred to as the ‘old language‘ in the prologue of The Lost Continent when Clearsight arrived on Pantala.

In the Prologue of The Hive Queen, Luna states that her name means 'Moon' in the old Pantalan language. As Luna means moon in Latin, this could imply at least some parts of the old language were Latin.

Trivia

• Wren is the only scavenger known to speak Dragon, which she uses to communicate with Sky.
• Apparently the written language of Dragon is a bunch of fire, claw, and moon symbols, according to Wren.
