Hurray for making Digit's life "less rough", I guess...

That may be the instruction booklet floating in the air between the two of them. I'm not sure how much help "Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball" will be, though (although I may be misreading it slightly).

It's modern Irish for "change" (and maybe other Celtic languages as well but I haven't found any such yet).

No, I believe that it's Celtic. It makes sense that Fae would speak the language of druids.

The problem with 'celtic' is it is like 'english' -- many different ways of saying things, that others do not understand(but the words are english!)... as I said above 'ancient english' is not irish celtic... and as for 'cymru', well... :roll:

Actually, it's more like 'germanic' - referring to any one of a number of languages that aren't necessarily within a hundred miles of being mutually comprehensible. (English is a germanic language. So are Dutch and Icelandic.)

English is half Saxon, half Norman French and heavily salted with everything it touches- As a language, it will follow other languages down dark alleys and mug them for vocabulary.
