Dothraki
Fictional steppe warriors
Dothraki refers to the fictional nomadic horse-warrior people in George R.R.
Martin's *A Song of Ice and Fire* novels and the *Game of Thrones* television adaptation.
The term also names their language, which was developed into a fully speakable constructed language for the show: She learned to speak Dothraki.
The Dothraki are modeled loosely on Mongol and other steppe cultures.
