Help for getting ready
Translated by Parjai Tracyn. Some I thought of; some are common affirmations and ways of praising people. Some translations may seem oddly phrased to give a better feel for the Mandalorian mindset. Note that some dialects do not use drashaar (to grow) to describe physical or mental development (instead using it only for plants), so those kinds of affirmations are not included here. Double bars are Discord spoiler tags, for your usage convenience.

Practice reading some of these phrases in one of five Mando'a scripts or Aurebesh on the MandoCreator site.
