To give you a example I can literally introduce the word Upiór (pronounces something like uupiur) for class of undead that are better Revenants. And only the scholars will realize that I literally took the original word that became the word Vampire in english.
Upiór in other regions upir and you see how this mutated in English into vampire. I can do this even in my own language since the word Vampire was reintroduced from English media in a comical recycling way game of telephone, since Vampires are bullshit and the original myths did have nothing about them burning in sunlight etc I hate the idea of Vampires.
>>48045336Daily reminder that the word Revenant is imported from French. All languages are a patchwork of words imported from other places.
And Upiór? The word itself has meaning that means something like:
"Of terror" or "Of fright" maybe can be translated to "The frighting one" while also preserving the meaning of "The Ghoulish one". The more I think about it "The Ghoulish one" is the best way to explain this word.
