So I read the Dragonology (2003) book recently, and I directly translated every instance of the dragon language from the book. If you have the book yourself, I recommend translating it yourself, since that's part of the fun. But if it takes too much time or you're just curious (or any other reason, really), here's every translation listed in order of appearance. (there are some intentional spelling errors within the book)
(not my picture)
Book cover:
Drakes complete book of dragons.
Language exercises:
I cannot give you heart ar health yet men dragans think me...
The heir of Lambton cursed be for catching such as fish as me and though he caut me in a well at Lambton Hall I now do dwell.
Forty feet below two million pounds are buried.
My treasure is in the billabong under the shade of the coolibah tree.
...wealth as cold as stone yet harder too you find me where you hear I do.
Secret Spell:
Grind the tail feather of a phoenix with some unicorn spittle. Take this mixture to the mouth of an old cave. Draw a circle on the ground and cast the mixture round it. Saying the magic words "dextray sinistray admey". The spell causes a dragon to come who will serve you for nine months. Be careful to pronounce the words correctly or it may turn the dragon against you.

THE SUBTLE DETAILS AND SHADING ARE INSANE
a ‘plain simple garak’ for the person who requested it in my inbox :)
I've always been interested in how different individuals like to decorate, arrange, and organize their things, as well as what specific things they like to own and display. So it's especially cool to see how 10 unique people furnish and decorate apartments with the exact same layout. So similar and also so different!!!!!

OH MY GOD THE PROGRESSION AND THE WAY WESLEY REALIZES THE SHITTINESS OF HIS FRIEND AND THE WAY YOU SHOWED THE SHUTTLE BLOWING UP AND KILLING THE ONE PERSON (SORRY I FORGOT THEIR NAMES IT'S BEEN A YEAR SINCE I SAW THAT EPISODE) THIS IS SO INSANE
i cant pretend that we are friends- we're not friends, friends dont do the things we did
sorry for making a four minute video about a group of characters featured in a single tng epiosde from 1992. my bad.
[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled “immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]
a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”
OMG I love the style this has!! I don't really know what it reminds me of but I think the kinda painted style plus the sky makes me think of old sci fi commercials! Also it looks like Geordi and Data just found something or someone laying on the ground
