Add to Watchlist

Dragon
This is a guide on how to learn Elvish in Dragon's Dogma 2 (DD2). Read on to know how to learn Elvish, how to get and equip the Woodland Wordsmith's Tome, and the benefits of learning the Elvish language!

How to Learn Elvish

Have a Pawn with the Woodland Wordsmith Specialization

To understand the Elvish language in Dragon's Dogma 2, you will need a pawn with the Woodland Wordsmith specialization to accompany you. This pawn you bring can be your own pawn or someone else's!

Do keep in mind that if the pawn that has the Woodland Wordsmith specialization dies, you will lose the ability to understand Elvish!

All Pawn Specializations

Use the Woodland Wordsmith's Tome

After getting the Woodland Wordsmith's Tome, you can change your pawn's specialization to the Woodland Wordsmith if you use it! Doing so lets your main pawn understand the Elvish language to translate and convey to you.

How to Get Woodland Wordsmith's Tome

Increase Affinity With any Elf in Sacred Arbor

1 Give a Bunch of Flowers
Press the Give Gift button and then choose the Bunch of Flowers. Make a Bunch of Flowers by combining Morning Tide with any flower!
2 Rest in the Inn
After giving the flowers, rest in the inn until morning. Repeat steps 1 and 2 one more time.
3 Claim the Woodland Wordsmith Tome
On the third day, talk to that elf and get the Woodland Wordsmith's Tome.

To get the tome, you must increase your affinity with any elf you prefer in Sacred Arbor. It is recommended that you increase affinity with the innskeeper since she does not move from her spot.

How to Raise Affinity

How to Equip Woodland Wordsmith

Use Woodland Wordsmith's Tome

To equip the Woodland Wordsmith specialization to your pawn, open the Implements tab in your inventory and use the Woodland Wordsmith's Tome to switch to that skill. Keep in mind that this overwrites your current pawn's specialization!

Worked for me just fine. I gave three flowers over the course of three days to the equipment trader. I sat on the nearby bench and waited it out there for free.

This does not work for me. Wasted 5 bunches of flowers and 15k on the innkeeper.
