Notes
- ↑ A'dam, the leash used on damane, is probably a contraction of "an'damane", meaning "of those who are leashed."
- ↑ Asha'man is likely a contraction of "Ashan'd'aman", "swords of the dragon;" thus, the connotation of being a guardian of truth and justice would be a cultural thing. The term may originally have referred to the Hundred Companions.
- ↑ Daes Dae'mar: One translation is "game of games." However, it is a well known fact that in the Old Tongue, words have variable meanings. It is possible that the same game was used for "game" as for "plot"; thus, another possible translation is "game of plots." However, this word may specifically have referred to games of strategy and cunning, such as sha'ra or stones. These games certainly have a similar foundation of Daes Dae'mar.
- ↑ The phrase "Far X Y" seems to translate as "Y of the X", so "Far Dareis Mai" translates as "Maidens of the Spear."
- ↑ For example, "Mashadar" may mean "Shadow of the Shadow," while "mashiara" means "heart of my heart;" this meaning was later interpreted as "true love."
- ↑ "Muad'drin" was probably a new word during the War of the Shadow, because there had been no traces of war left in the Age of Legends. Other words such as battle, sword, spear, etc were probably new as well.
- ↑ "Sul'dam" is likely a contraction of "sul'damane," "controller of those who are leashed."
