"In most languages, connotations depend on usage. In Draconic they just sort of come immutably attached to words," says Mial. "And the connotations attached to 'shren' are nasty. And in general it just - it acts reasonably like a normal language under most circumstances, except with better vocabulary, but when it comes to shrens it's completely crazy. There's no way to refer to dragons and shrens as a category, despite it being pretty blatantly obvious that a category like that would make sense - I had to invent 'dragonish' in other languages, Draconic wouldn't take it. Hates us too much."
