What is a Borush?
« on: March 12, 2018, 04:39:01 am »

My dwarfen Child was taken by a mood and claimed a workshop to surprise me with a gabbro borush. So,... i am not an english native and also google translate or google itself did not help me in any way to find a answer to my question. What has my dwarven Child created in his delusional state?

You can check the description of artifacts with 'L' (vanilla keys, caps required).

This. The names are generated to sound kinda like the language of the civilization that creates them, borush is kinda a dwarven-sounding name. Theyre total nonsense though, so you can always tell that way if its probably an instrument.

They're actually taken from the language itself, though I don't think there's much rhyme or reason behind what words are chosen yet (borush for instance means "rake").

I guess it's not too much of a stretch to imagine they're nicknames, like how you can call an electric guitar an "axe".
