Rosiekitty:

Some of the explanations below are necessarily incomplete, as they relate to things which [[Dwarf|Dwarfs]] are not allowed to speak of in front of ''D'harak''.

; ''aargk'' : say ({{T!}})
; ''aork!'' : say (preemptive form of ''aargk'') ({{T!}})
; ''ah Grag nun'' : My Lord
; ''bad'dhakz'' : yeast bowl
; ''B'Daan? Kraa! D'Kraga ha'ak!'' : An expression used by a Dwarf officer in {{T5E}} on first seeing [[Cheery Littlebottom]] in unambiguously female clothing. Given one meaning of "ha'ak" below, it appears that he is expressing conservative disapproval of her dress sense.
; ''bura'zak-ka'' : town hall
; ''b'zugda-hiara'' : Lawn ornament. (A killing insult in Dwarfish; however, it is used in {{WS}} as a term of endearment for [[Hwel]]. In {{RS}} it is used as an insult for the Deep-Downers, and as a picture for what certain narrow-minded parochial people would reduce the Dwarf race to, if they were to be allowed. Dwarves ''can'' do metaphor and simile, then...)
; ''Dezka-k'nik'' : king. Literally, "Senior Mine Engineer".
; ''d'harak'' : (all peoples who are) not-dwarfs.

; ''G'hruk, t'uk'' : evening, all. (Lit. "Felicitations to all at the closing of the day")
; ''[[Ginnungagap]]'' : a previously unrecorded phrase first used in {{RS}}. In the context, it may be cognate with ''Tra'ka!'' (below).
; ''[[grag]]'' : A loremaster, teacher, a judge, an elder in the community. The nearest thing Dwarfs have to a priest, whose social position is much that of a rabbi in a Jewish community.
; ''G'rakha'' : an essential rite which must be done with the correct degree of ''ha'lk''
; ''Ga strak ja'ada!'' : roughly, "your attitude or way of life is wrong!" ({{T!}})

In context in {{T5E}}, a most disapproving and pejorative term used to denote a Dwarf female who has <del>fallen</del> <ins>risen</ins> from grace (ie, uses makeup, wears a skirt, and brazenly lets her ankles show): a word with the power to incite near-genocidal anger in certain hearers.

; ''[[K'ez'rek d'b'duz]]'' : "Go Round The Other side of the Mountain" - the Dwarf name for [[Granny Weatherwax]].
; ''Kra'k?'' : an interrogative. "''What is that''?" seems to be a good translation, in context. {{T5E}}
; ''[[Kruk]]'' : Dwarf mining law.
; ''K'zakra'' : a rite of passage all Dwarfs must undergo. There is a massive Records Chamber underneath the [[Schmaltzberg]] in which the records of every Dwarf on the Disc's progress through ''k'zakra'' are filed and kept up to date. This suggests ''k'zakra'' is a lifelong journey for the Dwarf.

==Blurb==
The [[Alchemists' Guild|alchemists]] of the [[Discworld (world)|Discworld]] have discovered the [[magic]] of the silver screen. But what is the dark secret of [[Holy Wood]] hill?

It's up to [[Victor Tugelbend]] ("Can't sing. Can't dance. Can handle a sword a little") and [[Theda Withel]] ("I come from a little town you've probably never heard of") to find out ...
{{MP}}, the tenth Discworld novel, is a gloriously funny saga set against the background of a [[Ankh-Morpork|world gone mad]]!

== Cover ==

The cover was painted by Josh Kirby, and the front features many characters filming a moving picture: Victor (with sword), Ginger (lying languorously), Silverfish (with megaphone), Gaffer (with picture box), Gaspode (by Ginger's leg), CMOT Dibbler (with sausages-in-buns), Oswald (behind Victor), a troll (under Ginger), and several imps and dwarves.

The back cover has three Wizards riding with Windle Poons on his wheelchair, chasing Gaspode (who seems to be on both covers) and Laddie, passing the Resograph.
