Creation and Usage Notes
The similarity to Dothraki ao was intentional. First, I really liked the sound, and I liked it as a pronoun—and specifically a second person pronoun. It sounded good to me to refer to someone using ao. Second, I thought it was a nice way to demonstrate that Dothraki and High Valyrian were different languages. There was no way to tie the etymologies together and suggest the two words came from a common source.
