💖 + 🌹 + 🍒 for Tarrow <3
Tumblr media
🍒 which is better- a down to earth, comfortable love or an exciting, butterflies in your stomach type of love?
"Aqledehk Piddanvmeac. E fyhd du vaam y nicr. E fyhd cusadrehk haf."
🌹 what do you think are the most romantic flowers other than roses?
"Unlretc. Cbalevelymmo freda yht pmia uhac ajah ev drao'na iciymmo uhmo toat dryd lumun..."
💖 have you ever been in love? are you in love rn?
"E hajan paah eh muja. Hud nusyhdelymmo yd dra maycd. Yht E'ja oad du vaam muja."
1 Exciting Butterflies. I want to feel a rush. I want something new.
2 Orchids. Specifically white and blue ones even if they're usually only dyed that color...
3 I never been in love. Not romantically at the least. And I've yet to feel love.

Okay so, you may notice that a lot of the names have to to with god, directly or indirectly. Praising him, telling his goodness, receiving gifts from him. Tribal names are given very intentionally, and in a now vey Christianized context, very often have to do with god, in some way ascribing the blessing of the child to him. Sewuesedoo, it is good to thank god [for this child], Aondodoo, god is good [for giving us this child], etc.
Traditionally, names had more to do with the circumstances surrounding a child's birth rather than the child itself. An aunt on my mom's side is named "Nanier": "nan" = what, "i" = in this context being you plural (pronounced "ee"), "er" = to do/to be/to happen (pronounced "ay"). Altogether, it basically means "what did you (all) do?" or "what happened?" What happened was, back then, extended families lived in large compounds together with individual homes to a family/couple. But my grandfather pissed off one of his uncles (by flirting with said uncle's wife), and so he, my pregnant grandmother and my oldest aunt were kicked out of the compound. The family farm was quite far from the compound, so a small hut had been built out there for people to rest in if they got tired instead of going all the way home. My grandparents stayed there waiting for the uncle to calm down and let them come home, and it was there that my grandmother gave birth to my aunt. When her mom came by to see the baby, she was surprised to find them all the way out there, so she asked them "Nanier?" basically, "wtf are y'all doing out here???" and that's how my aunt got her name which is kind of hilarious.
A bunch of my aunts and uncles on my dad's side have names having to do with power struggle, because around the time my paternal grandfather was having a bunch of kids, he felt he was being cheated out of a position of power that was rightfully his. Mbadum: "mba" = they are (the m is basically silent so it's pronounced "ba"), "du" = to remove, "m" = again, to make it personal, so essentially "they are removing me (from the position I deserve)". Mlumun: "m" = to make it personal, "lumun" = to release, basically "I have left it", I guess when he gave up.
I can't remember all my maternal aunts' and uncles' tribal names off the top of my head, but by the time they got to kid number five (of eight!), they had more to do with god. Ngusonun: "ngu" = is (the n is basically silent, pronounced "gu"), sonun = looking after, "[god] is looking after".
Certain names used to be a lot more gendered, for example Doosuur is typically a girl's name but the cousin I have named that is a dude. A lot of names still are, like Dooshima, Adoo, etc. are still mostly girl's names. Ngutor, Tersoo, etc. are more masculine. It's not like taboo or anything, it's more like how you'd probably do a double take if you met a guy named Jane. Lots of other names are gender neutral though, Sughnen, Sesugh, etc.
The phonestics of Tiv aren't too complicated, although you may have noticed some silent letters. These are almost always at the beginning of words, and basically give the next letter some umph. Like the town of Gboko, the g is silent but it gives the b some extra umph to it that's hard to convey in text.
There are a BUNCH of homophones though which drives me INSANE. The words for yam, house/room, honey, and [one's own] body are all basically pronounced the exact same way and the only difference is stress and sometimes context. I grew up in America until I was ten, so my Tiv accent is abysmal, making it nearly impossible for me to say some of these things correctly, even thirteen years later (I will admit I kinda gave up after a couple of months because I was sick of my cousins teasing me about it, and only picked it up again when an older girl in boarding school found out we were the same tribe but I couldn't speak the language and then ONLY spoke to me in Tiv).
There are some words which basically mean the same thing but are used in different contexts. For example "zege" and "kehe" both basically mean "big", but "zege" conveys more size while "kehe" conveys more weight. Basically, you would describe a house as large (zege), but a dog as heavy (kehe".
Then there are words that don't have specifics. The word to describe food as being good is "nyoho", and although it's used more to describe sweet foods, there isn't really a distinction between sweet and savory. So you would describe the really good fried chicken you had for lunch and the really good cake you had for dessert with the same exact word.
One interesting little fact is what Tiv shares with Hausa. The word for church/worship is the same in both languages, "aduwa", and the words for school are very similar "makaranta" in Hausa and "manta" in Tiv. The words for for food are not the same, but are built the same way: "abinci" in Hausa, "abin" = something, ci = to eat, "something to eat", "kwayan" in Tiv, "kwa" = something, "yan" = to eat, "something to eat". Tiv people allegedly came from somewhere east before settling in the Benue River basin, and Hausa people are decidedly northerners, so this is likely to do with interactions in trade than a common ancestry, but I think it's interesting anyways.
Back in the day, Aondo was the name of the almighty, supreme god. There were a myriad of smaller dieties, spirits and powers under him. Basically, if you had a problem, you went to one of the little guys, offering prayers or sacrifices or whatever. If the problem wasn't fixed, you went to a bigger guy, all the way up to the big guy, Aondo. When the missionaries came, Aondo became the name for the like Yahweh, because the idea of being supreme over all is basically the same. Like I said, both in worship and in naming, "Ter" (meaning father) and Aondo are used fairly interchangeably, Aondo being more formal. "Ter Aondo" specifically refers to god the father. "Jijingi" just means spirit, but in a chrisitan context refers to the Holy Spirit, more formally "Jijingi u Civi", that is, "the spirit of purity/holiness". Jesus is just Yesu, or Yesu Kristu for Jesus Christ. "Tor" also a title that's used sometimes, although less often. It means "king", and heaven is called "Tar Tor", the land of the king. "Msen" means "prayer".
The Tiv people were traditionally a very decentralized people, having clan heads of families and groups of families rather than an overall king. My people are from Kwande, so there's the Ter-Kwande, "father of Kwande". When the British came they didn't like that very much though so they put someone in charge so they could just refer to one person instead of having to deal with a bunch of elders and chiefs and whatnot. He's called the "Tor Tiv", "king of Tiv" which is something of a misleading title. Although it's a very important position with power and wealth and all that, it's not a line of succession. When the Tor Tiv dies, rather than one of his sons becoming the next Tor Tiv, a new one is elected. There have been I think around Tor Tivs total, which shows you how recent the development is, only about some hundred plus years
This is all so cool holy moly. That’s so interesting that by that traditional naming convention, tribal names sort of mark family history!! I can’t get over the fact that your aunt got her name from her grandmother basically saying “Ayo wtf happened??” That’s incredible.
Also please note that after reading this last night, I went and spent an hour looking at articles on Tiv phonology (instead of washing dishes), because that’s the type of stuff that I fixate on I guess. I was curious about the sounds you were saying had more “umph” but couldn’t find a specific explanation. Maybe I’ll be able to find a video where I can pick up on the sounds, idk I’m just curious to hear them after reading your description. I did read that Tiv is a tonal language, which like. Yeah picking back up on learning that after 10 years in the US sounds Tough lol
Re: the word stuff, it’s always fun to see how different languages vary in the ways they divide meaning! Like two concepts that are grouped together in one language will have distinct words in another. Also, the Hausa overlap is really neat too! Hausa is a Chadic language, so it wouldn’t share ancestry with Tiv. The similarities would instead be from language contact as you said, like how English has borrowed from French, Latin, Spanish, etc. but is not a Romance language.
It’s also very interesting hearing about how the religious and political systems changed under colonialism. Leave it to the British imperialists to just group people together regardless of culturally determined distinctions.
Thank you so much for the mini language cultural history lesson!! I love learning things

👀 hey hey in your post say
"I ENVISION KAEYA TRYING TO CHARM OUT ANSWERS FROM HER THEN SHE JUST IGNORES HIM WHICH MAKES HIM MORE INTERESTED WITH THE MYSTERIOUS WOMAN.."
"same goes with the adult genshin characters... men and women ;))"
Can I know what aether, lumine and paimon's expression when they see kaeya(and maybe the other charakter too 😏) flirt or trying to get know y/n 👀
Pssst will aether be glaring in the background?
(Not headcanon or one-shot) just normal question
Aether's expression would be the same relaxed monotone face, however there would definitely be a sharp, intense look in his eyes. Kaeya would feel a him drilling holes into the side of his head. He's subtle about it: by that I mean intimidating kaeya away from his dear mother!
While aether is more quiet I'd like to think that lumine is more reserved, yet confident. She would be openly glaring at the boys trying to woo her beloved mother whether it be kaeya trying to figure her out, childe finding her interesting or even thoma simply seeing her as a beautiful woman thus he tries to invite her to dinner.
when did the mother reader have her own personal guard? Cause she definitely doesn't remember hiring a blonde girl named lumine! Oh yes, lumune sticks to her side 24/7!
To answer your question, I think that would be their actions! If you want you can ask for a specific character and what the twins would do :)

your mom has been on Zoloft for 20 years now
she has tried medication, and therapy, she has tried meditation
hell, she has had a fucking accident trying to practise mindfulness in the car
I know your mom has yearned for your father’s love, all these years, for him to somehow
somehow acknowledge her,
the force to be reckoned with of a strong woman that your mom is,
I just sometimes sit and wonder, if she found the right partner
that woman, strong woman, deserves worship almost
but here she is, married to someone, who chooses not to even live with her
My mom on the other hand,
runs the household of the man who does live with her in fact
they have the perfectly intact cover of a
socially acceptable happy nuclear family
their daughter is abroad and she supports herself
My mom produced her
my father is the only brother who never remarried
I’ve seen unfulfilled desire in my mom’s eyes
tears that never really seeped out
she yearns for little things like taking a photo with my dad without him
flickering away in embarrassment
she has longed all her life for the man who sleeps right next to her to just once hold her hand with love
But he never did
So now
when we both make it from Pakistan to Montreal as potential first generation immigrants
And you sit across from me in your new apartment
found as a result of so many apartments that I saw for you
not saying a word to me, not looking up from your laptop screen even once to see that I’m right there
To acknowledge I walked 30 mins to see you
you don’t say a word, at all,
and I have a million options to not only act like my mom and extend my hand for you to hold it
But also act like my ex best friend and try to hold you no matter how unexcited you took
My ex best friend whom I still hold the largest amount of love for
who’d travel to Lahore from Islamabad every lumun to see her beloved
Even though she got only 10 days of vacation in Pakistan
her boyfriend who’d sometimes try to turn her hugs away
she’d still lean in trying to keep it together
But I know how much it hurt her when all of her effort came to break her in the end, only to realize her worth after pain that
never seemed to belong to her; my ex best friend, a force to be reckoned with
she who if found the right partner was worthy of worship
hell, he should’ve travelled half the world to see her
or give up lumun for the few days that she was around
So what I do instead is
I text my roommate and ask her to call me back home
I tell you my roommate is sick and I walk out the door
Without saying a word, without communicating any unfulfilled expectations
I leave
because my god knows I don’t even want to take one step down the road so many women I love took
And your mom
to keep the hope alive, to keep trying
i don’t want to keep trying
it takes so much out of me for trying, but would have taken nothing out of you to fucking look up from that laptop screen
so in the morning when you ask me what’s wrong
I’m not going to say anything because I’m not going to stay in a place where
I have to reiterate my expectations, almost
teach you lessons everyday for my expectations to be met
I want a love that causes some sort of electricity across my spine
makes me feel alive
makes me believe in the love I never knew of
Rather than dragging me back to the same sorrows
Same stories of what my mom experienced
what my ex best friend did
And the kind of loneliness your mom has been left in.

This is another shu-ila (prayer of the lifting of the hands), dedicated to the sun god Shamash. His name literally means “sun” in Akkadian, cognate with Hebrew shemesh, from the same roots (š-m-š).
He was known by the Sumerians as Utu, the son of moon god Nanna/Sîn, which I always found a little curious (this is transferred to Enlil or Anu by the Akkadians, so go figure... family lines are a very unstable theme in the Mesopotamian pantheon). Inana/Ishtar is his twin sister and his wife is the light goddess Aya (Sumerian Sherida). His symbol is the solar disc, a four pointed star with rays pouring forth on the diagonals. Shamash’s, Sîn’s and Ishtar’s symbols were often portrayed together as the triad of the great astral gods.
As no deed stays hidden under the bright light of the sun, which shines over everything, and due to his vantage point in the sky (he sees everything), Shamash is appropriately the god of truth, law and justice. Magic-wise, he was an important name for divination and exorcism rituals, as his light and fire burned away all evil from wicked spirits or maleficia. On the bureaucratic side, he was often the god invoked as a witness when signing contracts.
For contemporary neopagans and magicians, of course, his shu-ila is a powerful preliminary prayer for solar works.
(If you plan on singing or reciting this, please remember that “š” sounds like the English “sh” and “ḫ” is guttural. Also don’t forget to cut out the part which says “my name is Aplutu” and so on, this is the part in which you include your name)
May the gods be praised!

@dancefrost​       ⇢     FATUI!LUMUNE   (   open   )
Tumblr media
They’re supposed to be on opposite sides now, but how could she simply stand back and watch? Sword in hand, she glared at the treasure hoarders which surrounded them. What were they doing here, so close to Mondstadt? They were probably no chance against Kaeya, but it went against her morals to merely stand back—she wanted to hold onto them, where and when she can.
As she was charged, she danced out of the way before taking them down, making quick work of those that came for her, while keeping an eye on the Captain. What a strange sight, she was sure: the Calvary Captain of the Knights of Favonious and a Fatui Agent, fighting side by side.

Masys of Gray Vale (D&D OC), Chaotic Good “They say ‘no man is an isle’. Clearly, they’ve never heard of archipelagoes.”  Masys was baseborn a Half Elf in the land of Gray Vale between a visiting Human Nobleman named Lumun Dayclaw and an Elven prostitute called Valstine. She was distrusted by most for her hybrid nature and that led her being brought out during a cleansing by a Corellite priest to rid their village of “impurities”. She escaped into the forest, where a kindly archer called Norydark taught her the way of the Ranger and gave her a deep appreciation of Silvanus. For years, she worked a fletcher until she was fed up and left to become an adventurer. As a ranger, Masys learned to use her already keen senses to great effect, able to identify sounds she would’ve previous passed off as just another noise. Her skill at the bow was built up with her hand-eye coordination and upper body strength, which came from mediation and diet respectively. She also holds a keen memory, able to tell you everything about animals and nature in detail, though things she learns for short term use can be forgotten unless written down. As a person, Masys will freely acknowledge she’s far different than others. She has different needs than others, different intelligence, and has difficulties in society. She rarely moves in groups, keeping her company small. Best that she stays that way, given she’s prone to finding everything wrong with anything she can think of and complaining about it. Still, she has a strong moral core, even if she is most likely to kill you for your serial sneezing fits.
