This was quite funny indeed, though, I should point out that 'wolf-speak' is more of a language now. Though who can speak the language should, whether or not some people disagree. I actually quite enjoy wolf-speech, because I see it for what most of my role-playing community sees it for. We are not claiming that "Femora" no longer means leg bone, we are simply using something that sounds feminine within the differentiating linguistic terms.
If one finds it hard to understand Wolf-speak, I know that most will explain the post to you. Unless they are rather rude, which I suppose wouldn't surprise most of us.
But! Enough of my incoherent ramblings. I know it is not a preferred way of role-play, and  I know that some places do not except the  terms that I enjoy using and I will always be flexible in what dictionary I use in the role-play.

Funny, I seen some talks about this Wolfspeak and I wonder what it was indeed, till now even my last few months on FH, though it kinda helped me a little about the words of Wolfspeak and normal talk, such as 'cranium' for 'head' and 'pillars' for 'legs'. However I have NOTHING against Wolfspeakers, though what they speak of for words of the body such as eyes, replacing with a similar word but not described in the body part, such as spheres for eyes. Still, even if it looks confusing as I said, I believe I understand why people dislike Wolfspeakers a lot, a shame that there's drama over a certain way of Roleplay in FeralHeart. But even if I'm am a literate Roleplayer, I never seen a different hissy fit over a type of Roleplay since Powerplay in my past of starting to Roleplay.

But here's the reason why there's still Wolfspeakers here and there, there not against the rules, so you'll just have to cooperate and live with them, it's not like living with a elderly, cranky widow, it's like a walk in a park it seems, there's different people here and there since people are different, but there's 7 billion humans on Earth.

It's your choice ether to outlaw Wolfspeakers from like say, a Roleplay group, or accept them and know of what how they speak, and I have nothing against it on this game.

Hello there, rather large and long thread. o-o

I'm just here to bring up a small point...  some wolfspeak terms could be simple exaggeration.

Eg.

Instead if saying: "The man was like a lion in personality."

You'd say: "He was a lion of  man."

This could be applied to a few terms, such as fae. c:

"He was a lion of  man."
Umm, that's not Wolfspeak lol. That's just another way to put it in.
