have you studied ancient greek?? i just started Destroyer of Light and i’m so impressed by your use of ancient greek, i’ve studied it for two years now and i’ve found it so difficult to translate english to attic greek!!

That is a huge high compliment. Thank you!!

I didn’t study Ancient Greek until I started writing Receiver of Many.

I am far from proficient, and I got a big assist from @denerim who I thanked in both books for her invaluable help, especially with the pronouns, and @teashoesandhair for some of the finer differences between Modern and Ancient Greek.

In Destroyer of Light, in the throne room scene, you’ll also see a little Ancient Thracian, which I had to blend with modern Bulgarian to form complete sentences since we only have a smattering or translated words.

I’ve always love languages. Every book I’ve written has some addition in it whether it’s existing or “frog DNAed” together.

If I was given three wishes, one of them would be the ability to read understand and correctly pronounce Minoan
