Dothraki is a constructed language created by David J. Peterson for Game of Thrones. It has a smaller ready-made course footprint than High Valyrian, but a real grammar and dictionary exist. Pair the Living Language materials and languageinvention.com docs with community practice — hobby study, not an official studio curriculum.
Speaker counts are approximate orders of magnitude for learners, not census figures. Family labels follow Glottolog-style classification; vitality notes (when shown) follow UNESCO WAL / Ethnologue-style framing and should be re-checked for program planning.
