Word UsageAlright, so you may be wondering what the heck is up with all the crazy words used in the game. Well, some of them are just made up, but some of them do have meanings behind them, just to make it fun. So here's a little glossary of the real ones for you. exasperare is the mid-16th century Latin origin of exasperate. After you've been playing my games long enough, you'll find it a fitting title. fettle basically means condition. I'd never heard of it, so I thought I'd share my vocabulary enhancement. pelf means money, especially money gained by dishonest means (pilfer, anyone?). I thought it entertaining. Tarjuman is the Arabic origin of the word dragoman, which means guide or interpreter.
