My apologies! I had no idea that you were referring to the TV show. I caught a few episodes of it and it seemed pretty good. It is a great example of using English but pretending they are speaking in many native tongues.Mouricia25 wrote: ↑09 Sep 2018, 19:06I was referring to the TV series Vikings. It made it clear to the audience that the different lands were speaking different languages, but the show was done in English for the audience, instead of them having to use subtitles. So I was saying the different languages for this book wouldn't be an issue. There are ways to make it work.CommMayo wrote: ↑08 Sep 2018, 13:20Where did you read that Vikings predominantly spoke English? Old Norse was their primary language.Mouricia25 wrote: ↑07 Sep 2018, 23:30 I don't think the language would be an issue. Vikings had multiple languages, however they only used the foreign language when showing ignorance, but used English predominantly.. it would make a good series.. flesh out some of the subplots

I think in this aspect they could either use subtitles for scenes such as this. Another option would be to have whoever is walking into their conversation act as though they cannot understand what they are saying. Overall I think they could adapt this into a movie and I think it would be a great movie.AliceofX wrote: ↑01 Sep 2018, 22:15 It seems I should have been more specific. What I meant with the language issue is that there are scenes where, for example, Catrin and Marcellus are speaking in Latin then some one else comes along and Catrin speaks to them in Celtic. How would you accurately portray that in a movie where you can't just say, "She spoke to them in Celtic," or, "Marcellus didn't understand what the Celts were saying."
