"It is a bit," Tyki said. "I'm not sure formal is the word, though. Old ..." he thought for a moment "...style, maybe." He paused again. "Archaic." He added, in his native tongue, for clarification. "Stuffy," he included, unnecessarily.
He wasn't wrong, though. Ignis's dialect was strange to Überwaldean ears. The accent was weird and some of the word choices were off, though the same could be said of his to them, and no doubt Integra and her dog. The Überwald dialect was considered a relic of parts of his own country, with the more modern Union Jyllandi being spoken in Ueltham, home of their capital.
"I learned late," he admitted. He watched Ignis present the meal with a smile. Not even he could deny that Nel's breakfast looked, and smelled, rather good. "That means 'enjoy'," he clarified.
