For anyone looking, the best ways to learn are to

●Go through the memrise course, which is updated regularly when new developments happen https://community-courses.memrise.com/community/course/6034064/trigedasleng/

●Join the discord where people at all levels come together to learn, continue the language, and Peter actually hops in from time to time to brainstorm and make more canon words. All the resources you could possibly need are here!

●Trigseda on Instagram (not sure how active she is here anymore. She also has a page for Dothraki(? - The GOT language, I don't have that link sorry). She also has a youtube channel with all of the trig clips put into a Playlist, though be mindful of pronunciation slips from the cast.

●David J. Peterson, the creator of Trigedasleng (and a bunch of other languages) has an AO3 dedicated to posting about some of the languages he's made. There's a whole trig series with all the canon dialogue.

●Also, the trigedasleng dictionary has all of the canon and noncanon words, as well as a translation section with canon and some noncanon phrases all translated.

The hardest part of the language for me (for some reason) is pronunciation, even though English is my only language 😭 Hope this helps!
