Sorry if you’ve already done this but I’ve been trying to learn about the drow language but I’m not sure how to pronounce the words? I can’t find anything on pronunciation other than the few words used in bg3.
Hello 🙂 The topic of pronunciation of drow language is a bit tricky, since in most official sources we are given only written names and phrases without pronunciation tips.
In Drow of the Underdark (2e), it is mentioned that drow are "as eloquent and musical in their speech as other elves" and that the everyday language of the drow "varies slightly from community to community, in the same way that spoken Common has regional accents, phrases and words" - but that is all.
🔹As for the drow content from the novels, R. A. Salvatore seemed to be generally applying Italian pronunciation to his drow characters' names.
In Lisa Smedman's The Lady Penitent books (in section "dramatis personae" in the second and third book), there are names of drow characters with pronunciation guides. There are, for example, Qilue Veladorn - KIE-loo-ay VEL-a-dorn, Cavatina Xarann - cav-a-TEEN-a zar-ANN, Cabrath Nelinderra - ka-BRATH nel-in-DAIR-uh, Halisstra Melarn - HAL-is-truh mel-ARN, Q'arlynd Melarn - KAR-lind mel-ARN, Seldszar Elpragh - SELDS-zar el-PRAG.
In Waterdeep: Dragon Heist there is a small pronunciation guide for non-English names, with a few drow names included - for example, Bregan D'aerthe - BRAY-gan DAIRTH, Jarlaxle Baenre - jar-LAX-ull BANE-ray.
🔹Following the most common pattern when it comes to fantasy elven laguages, it is probably safe to assume that drow language is generally pronounced a bit similarly to Latin.
It seems to be a thing - more or less, at least - with drow names and phrases voiced in games like Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale or Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark, as well as with many drow names that appear in books with pronunciation guides.
But since roleplay-wise, drow language "varies slightly from community to community", I suppose it is totally OK to use a different pronunciation, especially in relation to characters from Underdark cities and communities different than Menzoberranzan.
Hope you will find this information helpful in some way 🙂

Okay, recently I found out the information from Disney Wiki that AUTO from WALL-E is the only non-sentient robot in the movie. And I don't feel like that. :(
I am aware that he is meant to be an antagonist, the "villain" of the story as he follows his directives like there's no tomorrow. But, I didn't think this trait should define ALL of his personality. Like, he clearly had emotions and showed them in a restrained way. Or at least I thought he did?
Tumblr media
I decided to rewatch it.
Warning: spoilers, potential grammar, punctuation mistakes. Excuse me, english is hard!
***
Why do I think AUTO is a sentient robot? My observations.
• Every bot on this ship is capable of emotions, when why an intelligent steering wheel isn't?
• Well, why, he actually has them! You can tell it by his body language and a tone of deep synthesized voice.
He expresses:
1. Frustration, annoyance.
- "CAPTNNNNN D:" – AUTO said calmly.
2. Surprise.
- He is genuinely shocked to see WALL•E with 'the p l a n t' on his head. I actually laughed at his reaction.
- "n ot pos sible! 0:" every now and when.
3. He is persistent and blutantly stubborn. Strict on himself. Some people can be like that without any directives.
- Captain McCrea needed to give AUTO 'a stern look' for him to share the information about directive. AUTO reluctantly obliged. (At least he tried to reason with Captain.)
- "sir, i INSIST you give me the plant." (Dutch Van der Linde voice here: "he INSISTS...")
- (And the whole plot obviously.)
4. Anger, fear. McCrea: – You want it? Come and get it, blinky.
Auto: – N O.
- "E N ouGh" 😡 *flips the ship around impulsively*
- "NOT POSSIBLE D:" but with more panicking tone.
- "NoOOo..." when he gets deactivated.
• The whole sequence with manual is... interesting.
- At this point of the story AUTO ordered GO-4 to steal the plant from EVE to make her look defective in Captain's eyes.
- I felt how much AUTO and McCrea are tired of each other's presence. AUTO is patiently anticipating McCrea's attention, he is eager to do his job.
(- Captain tries to imitate jogging in his seat and AUTO for some reason looks at him with puzzled and uncertain look. )
- AUTO keeps pretending like he doesn't know anything...
• Which is actually not a common thing for robots. "Lying is a human emotion." (c) HAL 9000
And yes, hiding the truth is considered to be lying too.
It's not like he was instructed to lie by his superiors, they didn't care. But rather it's the tactic that he learnt while being active for 700 years. I bet he understands it would be much easier to secretly yeet the plant into space without bothering captain with a decision. I suppose it required some thinking in his mechanical brain.
When why does he show the captain an operation manual? Good question. My personal headcanon: he loves doing his job so much, it doesn't matter for him if it can increase risks towards his global goal. That is why I can tell it wasn't a programmed, logical decision of the machine. If non-sentient perfect AUTO knew about A-113, he wouldn't let captain see the possibility at all. He hasn't considered that his domestic human pet might get interested in whole "Earth" thing. And he hasn't considered sentient WALL•E and EVE as serious obstacles. He did a crucial mistake to satisfy his ego... Or... Or maybe not? It's a headcanon, after all. Maybe it was a part of protocol. Or maybe he tried to entertain McCrea. AUTO seems to care about him in some way as he didn't push him out off the power until the last moment. (uwu) Choose whatever you like more. It's a thought-provoking subject.
• That aside, have you noticed that there is not a single character in the movie who would not be terrified of having to leave the comfort zone? It's only AUTO, who is opposing this idea for the sake of survival. Recolonizing nearly-dead Earth is not an easy work, someone can get really hurt and, well, die. And knowing that AUTO is based on famous computer HAL 9000, who is, in fact, killed people because of his panic attack (he didn't want to be deactivated/murdered), this situation kinda gets a new meaning? It's an interesting perspective to look at AUTO's character, too. AUTO, like HAL, at the start of story was okay and non-hostile towards others. Eventually, as the story progresses, AUTO becomes more and more impatient, eager to complete his primary task, thus taking violent measures. In AUTO's eye WALL•E & EVE are rogue robots anyway, defected and dispatchable. But attacking the captain? AUTO's final step to AI "madness" was fighting the man he is designed to serve. And though I believe he wouldn't kill him, we can imagine AUTO was panicking at this moment. So, no programmed logic there either, pure emotion of fear and reckless behaviour, almost like HAL. And HAL is 100% sentient and conscious entity.
*** Well...
Maybe it's just me and my anthropomorphizing tendencies on non-living fictional objects. I can be self-projecting too much, so if you disagree, let's say it's my headcanons and leave that at that. After all, AUTO is a direct representation of BnL – heartless company, that destroyed life on Earth and continued destroying it in space. They made humans, their customers, helpless like babies! And I am afraid it could only be worse in the future, if it wasn't for WALL•E and EVE.
It's quite a tragedy that AUTO can't escape from this never-ending system of least resistance and comfort. He is the system. He is made to be an autopilot of Axiom, he IS the Axiom, programmed to do his job fully dedicated to the mission of saving mankind. And if he was really fully-sentient... well, it would've made his life even more miserable. What's the use of the steering wheel on Earth surface? It's not like they are gonna fly into space again. Captain's dead and woah, hello eternal loneliness, next generation forgets about your existence or decides to ignore it like a bad memory about containment. Even AUTO's closest henchman GO-4 is forever destroyed... *sigh*
I am overthinking too much, aren't I? Gosh, this wheel NEEDS a redemption arc. And friends. My heart bleeds for him, really.

Game dengan Karakter Anti-Hero yang Menggugah Emosi Pemain
Tumblr media
Game dengan Karakter Anti-Hero yang Menggugah Emosi Pemain
Karakter anti-hero sering kali menjadi sorotan dalam game modern. Mereka bukanlah pahlawan sempurna, tetapi justru membawa sisi gelap dan kompleksitas yang membuat mereka lebih manusiawi dan mudah dihubungkan dengan pemain. Karakter anti-hero biasanya memiliki motivasi ambigu, moral yang abu-abu, atau masa lalu yang kelam, yang justru menarik empati dari para pemain. Berikut adalah beberapa game yang berhasil menghadirkan karakter anti-hero dengan kisah emosional yang mendalam:
1. Kratos (God of War)
Kratos adalah salah satu karakter anti-hero paling terkenal dalam dunia game. Sebagai mantan prajurit Spartan, ia menghabiskan sebagian besar hidupnya dalam dendam setelah kehilangan keluarganya. Di seri God of War, terutama dalam versi reboot-nya, Kratos menunjukkan perkembangan emosional yang signifikan, dari seorang prajurit yang penuh kemarahan menjadi seorang ayah yang lebih bijaksana. Kompleksitas emosinya membuat pemain merasa terhubung, terutama ketika ia mencoba menebus kesalahan masa lalu.
2. Joel (The Last of Us)
Joel adalah karakter yang berjuang untuk bertahan hidup di dunia yang dipenuhi dengan zombie dan ancaman lain. Kehilangan putrinya pada awal cerita membuatnya pahit dan cenderung egois. Namun, hubungannya dengan Ellie membawanya pada perjalanan emosional yang mengubah cara pandangnya. Pilihannya di akhir game menunjukkan sisi anti-hero-nya, di mana moralitas tindakannya sangat diperdebatkan oleh pemain. Joel adalah contoh karakter anti-hero yang mencerminkan sifat-sifat manusia yang kompleks.
3. Max Payne (Max Payne Series)
Max Payne adalah karakter yang dilanda rasa sakit dan kesedihan setelah keluarganya dibunuh. Dia bekerja sebagai polisi, tetapi tragedi pribadi membuatnya berada di jalur yang penuh kekerasan dan balas dendam. Narasi internalnya yang gelap dan penuh perenungan membuat Max menjadi karakter anti-hero yang menarik. Sebagai pemain, kita memahami motivasinya, bahkan ketika ia menempuh jalan yang sulit untuk mencari keadilan.
4. Arthur Morgan (Red Dead Redemption 2)
Arthur Morgan adalah karakter yang terjebak di dunia kriminal dengan segala kerumitan moral. Sebagai anggota geng Van der Linde, ia sering dihadapkan pada keputusan sulit yang menguji prinsip-prinsipnya. Transformasi emosional Arthur sepanjang permainan—terutama karena penyakitnya dan pandangan hidupnya yang berubah—membuatnya menjadi karakter yang sangat menggugah. Pemain merasakan konflik batin Arthur antara loyalitas kepada geng dan kesadarannya untuk melakukan hal yang benar.
5. Corvo Attano (Dishonored Series)
Corvo, seorang pengawal kerajaan yang difitnah, memulai perjalanan balas dendam dengan menggunakan kekuatan supernatural. Meskipun ia punya kesempatan untuk membalas dendam dengan kejam, pemain bisa memilih gaya bermain yang lebih halus atau brutal. Pilihan ini memengaruhi perkembangan Corvo sebagai karakter, yang pada akhirnya mempengaruhi pemain untuk memikirkan dampak dari setiap tindakan.
Mengapa Karakter Anti-Hero Menggugah Emosi Pemain?
Karakter anti-hero cenderung menarik karena mereka tidak selalu mengambil jalan yang "benar." Mereka menghadapi konflik moral, memiliki kelemahan manusiawi, dan sering kali membuat keputusan yang tidak sempurna. Dalam dunia game, karakter anti-hero menawarkan kedalaman cerita yang membuat pemain berpikir tentang moralitas, empati, dan konsekuensi dari tindakan yang diambil.
Game dengan karakter anti-hero yang kuat dapat memberikan pengalaman emosional yang dalam, membuat pemain merasakan ikatan khusus dengan karakter-karakter ini. Bukan hanya sekadar bermain, tetapi juga mengalami perjalanan emosional yang kompleks.

Kapitel V: Schellenklingeln / Vom kurzen Leben fast verschneiter gruener trauben
Aufzug so in Stucke, verseuch ich lind als Wrack, das Haupt in Fleischesblut versenkt, als liess ich es von Dornen spalten Zur Stunde schon, wie ein verspatet Kindlein, schmolle ich im kleinen Gartchengetroffen schon vom Hals der Schopferkugel! “Was meint ihr dann? Meint ihr die Trane brenne nicht? Was meint ihr dann? Stribt gar die Traubesfrucht, das kleine gierige Gezucht”. “Du Rebstock kannst…

Narkose durch Bücher · Kurt Tucholsky
Tumblr media
Narkose durch Bücher · Kurt Tucholsky · Satire Literatur Liebe
»Und wenn alles aus ist ... « Es ist niemals alles aus. Alles geht weiter - eine sehr schmerzliche Erfahrung, die man erst ziemlich spät lernt. Alles geht weiter. Was aber, wenn es doch weiter geht, und man denkt, alles sei aus . . . was dann? Manche betrinken sich. Es steht einer Dame nicht wohl an, sich zu betrinken - wir sind doch hier nicht in Amerika. Nun, also dann: eine neue Liebe? Nie wieder Liebe ... ! In den Romanen vergessen die Heldinnen im Strudel des rauschenden und eleganten Vergnügungslebens ihren Kummer ... aber wo strudelt es denn schon und noch? Dann gibt es also nur ein Mittel, nein zwei. Das eine ist: Narkose durch Bücher. Durch welche Bücher kann man das Leid betäuben? Das kommt auf die zu Betäubende an! Ist es eine sehr kluge, eine sehr gebildete, eine sehr intellektuell trainierte Dame, dann mag es wohl sein, dass sie zu den Klassikern greift ... zu deutschen oder zu französischen oder zu englischen. In diesen Büchern steht gewöhnlich immer ein Teil mehr, als man bei der ersten Lektüre heraus gelesen hat. Man kann zum Beispiel in den Swift auch viel hineinlesen; das kann man nicht bei jedem Buch . . . Aber das ist noch nicht das Richtige. Das Richtige ist: das intensive Buch. Das Buch, dessen Autor dem Leser sofort ein Lasso um den Hals wirft, ihn zerrt, und zerrt und nicht mehr loslässt ... bis zum Ende nicht, bis zur Seite 354. Lies oder stirb! Dann liest man lieber. Musterbeispiel 1: Zu dieser Gattung gehört etwa Wallace, der es ja nunmehr schon etwas reichlich grob treibt, womit nicht gesagt sein soll, dass er es nicht immer so getrieben habe. Musterbeispiel 2: Prinzgemahl von Philipp Mac-Donald. Davon gibt es natürlich viele hundert Beispiele. Betäubt dergleichen ... !? Ja, es betäubt; diese Gattung Literatur betäubt. So, wie es gegen Kopfschmerzen ein wirkliches Universalmittel gibt: nämlich starke Zahnschmerzen -: so wird bei der Lektüre dieser modernen Märchenbücher nur ein kleines Feld im Gehirn angestrengt, der Rest ist gelähmt, er ruht . . . die Sache mit Martin wagt sich nicht hervor . . . für den Augenblick ist sie nicht mehr da . . . Der Autor schleppt die Liebeskranke (gibts!) durch die Dschungel und durch die Unterwelten der großen Städte. Es knallt und es brennt; die Heldin stürzt mit rutschendem Büstenhalter aus dem 44. Stockwerk, und unten wartet der Befreier, weiter! weiter! Die Leidende liest weiter. Sie liest, wenn sie allein ist, bei Tisch, zum Kaffee und den ganzen Nachmittag lang ... und wenn sie noch so ein Buch hat, auch noch an diesen langen Abenden, die schlaflose Nacht werden wollen, die Stunden wollen nicht enden, der Schlaf kommt nicht . . . Er braucht nicht zu kommen. »Mit einem einzigen Blick übersah Jack die Situation. Er ergriff den Konservenbüchsenöffner, der auf dem Tisch lag, und stürzte sich auf den Chinesen . . . « Faul wird die Sache nur dann, wenn in diesem Rumor plötzlich ein Kerl auftaucht, er zufällig Martin heißt. Martin . . . Dann lässt sie das Buch sinken, und der ganze Kram ist wieder da. Hat er sich nicht gemein benommen? Er hat sich gemein benommen! Hätte ich mich anders benehmen können? Ich hätte mich nicht anders benehmen können! Hätte ich ihm den Brief . . . hätte er mir den Brief . . . hätten wir uns die Briefe . . . äh! Einer, der Martin heißt, darf also nicht vorkommen. Aber sonst sind diese Bücher bunte Oasen, in die die Leserin aus der Wüste flieht, wo man sie so grimmig enttäuscht hat . . . Und es muss nicht immer unglückliche Liebe sein (gibts!). Da ist die Rekonvaleszenz: die süße Mattigkeit, die Zeit, in der sie alle gut zu einem sind und so leise und so rücksichtsvoll ... auch, dass sie ewig grünen bliebe, die schöne Zeit . . . ! Da sind dann mildere Bücher am Platz ... aber gut geschrieben müssen sie sein und sanft und hinreißend (Musterbeispiel: Raucat - Die ehrenwerte Landpartie). Glatt wie Öl geht dir das runter, die Seiten wenden sich so lind um, die Erzählung fließt sanft dahin, unaufhaltsam. Man muss nicht alles so genau verstehen, lesen gen��gt auch ... die Zeit vergeht ... die Krankheit entweicht ... die Gesundheit wächst langsam ... Kummer und Elend liegen grollend in der Ecke, niemand kümmert sich um sie, und das bekommt ihnen schlecht; denn das Unglück ist eine eitle Frau und will hofiert sein. Beachtet man es nicht, dann stirbt es. Wer wird denn gleich Kokain schnupfen, dieses Stimulans unserer Großmütter aus der Inflation! Bücher sind auch sehr schön. Aber es müssen die richtigen Bücher sein! Und so ist es denn das Beste, wenn die Dame den Herrn Martin gleich zu Beginn ihrer Beziehung fragt: »Sag mal - was rätst du mir zu lesen, wenn wir uns gezankt haben?« Wenn er so nett ist, sagt er es. Das wäre das eine Mittel, um den Kummer zu vergessen. Es gibt aber noch ein zweites. Arbeit ist auch nicht schlecht!

El japonés fue elegido como el bateador designado más destacado del año David Méndez Shohei Ohtani, el fenómeno japonés de los Ángeles de Los Ángeles, fue elegido como el ganador del Premio Edgar Martínez al Bateador Designado Sobresaliente de 2023, según anunció hoy la Major League Baseball. El nipón exhibió una línea ofensiva  de .304/.412/.654 con 102 carreras anotadas, 151 hits, 26 dobles, ocho triples, 44 jonrones, 95 carreras impulsadas y 20 bases robadas en 135 juegos como bateador designado de los Angelinos. Entre los bateadores designados calificados con 100 turnos al bate, Ohtani lideró a sus rivales en imparables, carreras, bases totales (325), triples, jonrones, bases por bolas (91), bases robadas y slugging. Ohtani sumó su segundo Premio al Jugador Más Valioso de la Liga Americana en su carrera y se convirtió en el primer jugador en la historia del béisbol en ganar el Premio MVP por unanimidad más de una vez, después de haber ganado previamente el Premio MVP de la Liga Americana 2021 de manera unánime. Con sus 44 jonrones, se unió a Troy Glaus (47 bambinazos en 2000) como los únicos jugadores de los Angelinos en terminar una temporada como líder de jonrones de la Liga Americana.

En el montículo esta temporada como lanzador, Ohtani tuvo marca de 10-5 con efectividad de 3.14 en 23 aperturas para los Angelinos. Lanzó la primera blanqueada de su carrera el 27 de julio en Detroit. El premio lleva el nombre de Edgar Martínez, el legendario bateador designado de los Marineros de Seattle, que fue exaltado al Salón de la Fama en 2019. Ohtani es el cuarto jugador de los Ángeles en ganar este premio, después de Don Baylor (1986), Chili Davis (1991) y Vladimir Guerrero (2010).
