Ghosthands Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I think the typical declension used in the English language sucks for the Valkyr, both because it's been mentioned not to be the actual pluralization and because it just sounds weird. Also, worth noting here that in proper Matoran syntax, all nouns are written the same in both singular and plural. In other words, 's' is never used as a suffix for plurals on Matoran words - hence, for example, "I have visited all six Koro", not "Koros".

The Lorax Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Yep, that's a carryover from the Maori roots of the Matoran language in 2001. The plural isn't attached to the noun, it comes from elsewhere in the sentence. Everything in Matoran is like sheep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
