Overview[edit]
Here's my Original Research on Dwemeris because original research is not allowed on Lore pages. Everything here will eventually be properly sourced!
This won't be written professionally at all but I'll try to fix that in the future, right now I'm dumping my notes here
Analysis of Calcelmo's Stone[edit]
In this table, I will compare the Dwemeri and Falmeri parts of Calcelmo's Stone in game, as well as the out of game English (Tamrielic) translation provided by Kurt Kuhlmann[UOL 1]. Note that Falmeri is basically identical to Ayleidoon. Bold and Italic text in the same sections of the text means those words have the same meaning. Strikethrough text means those words can be omitted from the translation(s) as there's either no (known) way to translate them, or they become obsolete upon translation.

you, |

your enemies, |
to thereby take |
you |
under. |
