The Origins of the Valyrian Language

In ‘Game of Thrones’ Milly Alcock, who played the role of Annara in HBO's "Game of Thrones," recently revealed that her Valyrian dialogue was on "auto-pilot."

Alcock made the confession during an interview with Watchers on the Wall.

Admitting that she didn't have to put much thought into her Valyrian dialogue because she had already memorized it.

"It was all on auto-pilot, I just had to mouth the words," Alcock said of her Valyrian scenes.

"I mean, I obviously knew what was going on, but in terms of nailing the language, that was all down to David J. Peterson, who created the language."

Peterson is the linguist who created the Dothraki and Valyrian languages for "Game of Thrones."

He also worked on the upcoming HBO series "House of the Dragon," which is set to premiere in 2022.

Alcock went on to say that she was "blown away" by Peterson's work on the show.

"He is just incredible," she said. "The amount of detail that he goes into is really quite amazing."

Alcock also revealed that she had to audition for her role in "House of the Dragon" using Valyrian, which she said was "definitely a challenge."

"I had to audition in Valyrian and that was definitely a challenge," she said.

"But I'm so glad I did it, because now I can say that I've actually auditioned in a made-up language, which is pretty cool."
