Creation and Usage Notes

This verb is quite important in Dothraki, as it is responsible for the creation of what is called the Schrutean Compound in Dothraki. It is a process of noun incorporation that was unintentionally created by the character Dwight Schrute from the NBC series The Office (US). In season 9, episode 3 of the series, Dwight teaches Erin how to speak Dothraki, and creates this new syntactic structure in the lesson. In October of the same year, David J. Peterson ratifies this as a proper piece of grammatical construction under the rules of Dothraki. -Khal Qanno 02:45, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
