Thought it would be useful if people started attempting to speak in languages they don't normally...mainly us English speakers, but it goes for some German speakers too I suppose. Please feel free to add more or translate, and I'll keep revising this post.
Greetings - Grüße (But not Grube...it means pit. Try to say "Hallo" instead.)
Hello - Hallo
I do not speak that language - Ich spreche diese Sprache nicht
I don't understand - Ich verstehe das nicht.
#me nods - #me nickt.
#me shakes their head - #me schüttelt den Kopf.
#me draws their weapon - #me zieht seine/ihre Waffe.
#me puts away their weapon - #me steckt seine/ihre Waffe weg.
#me smiles - #me lächelt.
#me frowns - #me runzelt die Stirn.
Yes - Ja
No -Nein
#me walks away - #me geht davon.
Farewell - Lebt wohl!/Leb wohl! (First one is more polite and second one is colloquial - use it for friends or if you play a rather impolite char)
Bye - Auf Wiedersehen
Help! - Hilfe!
Thankyou-
#me does not want to fight-
Would you like to fight?-
How much does this cost?-

No wonder you Germans are such good typist. Us americans are lazy, we abrev.. whatever shorten, and change words instead of spelling. I think I will stick with a shrug.

These are nice, possibly sticky? Can copy and insert ig rather then hunting for certain keys on your keyboard btw.

Want to spar?
How many copper/silver are you selling it for?

thats how i manage to stay in character:P i DID plan on making a orc that talked orcy in common and all sortsa posh brittish in orcish... sooortaaa liiiikkkeee "wub dat beh? it look stoopid and puneh!" in common and "i 'say' brother, preytell, what 'is' that wretched looking thing theaa? it 'does' look 'moust' strange, i must say" in orcish would be fun but horrible to stay in character with my short term memory.... >,< and..heh..no i will not start typing normally when im writing in orcish:P why? because it ends up like with the humans, they all sound the same, look the same... i like to see a LTTLE difference in character dialect and such..but thats just me..innit?
