Castithan

Etymology

From Old Castithan *di.

Pronunciation

IPA(key): /dʒe/

Orthographic Form

di

Particle

je

  1. (emphatic) used as a sentence-final particle for emphasis
    Mémizhiwa do vánganunda je!
    I will have justice!
    -Datak (Defiance, Episode 101)
  2. follows adverbs to form commands

Creation and Usage Notes

I have fond memories of this tiny word. Most of the translation I did on Defiance was into Castithan, and a lot of what I wrote in Castithan was angry. Many a line ended with je. It almost felt like audible punctuation. I miss Defiance...
