ARE YOU A GAME of Thrones fan? Wish you could learn some conversational Dothraki for going about your daily business? Well now you can.

The Daily Dot reports that David J Peterson, a linguist who is responsible for most of the language we hear on the show, has created a Living Language course in Dothraki.
You can choose between a Dothraki book and CD or an ‘expanded’ online course – companion app will also be available so you can practice on the go.
The course won’t get you completely fluent (as the language doesn’t really have a full vocabulary yet) but you could learn how to casually converse in Dothraki. Just in case you ever bump in to Daenerys Targaryen on the street, or something.
