词源
Learned borrowing from High Valyrian dracarys. Coined by American writer and television producer George R. R. Martin as a word meaning "dragonfire" in that fictional language featured in his A Song of Ice and Fire novel series. In the novel series, as well as its television adaptation Game of Thrones, the character Daenerys Targaryen uses dracarys (drakarys in the television series) to command her dragons to breathe fire. The language creator chosen for Game of Thrones, David J. Peterson, acknowledged that dracarys was influenced by Latin dracō (“dragon”).
