Editing Reference:Rivenese transcriptions

{{reference copyright notice}}

In [[Riven]], the [[Stranger]] has a bit of dialogue with [[Cho]] right after linking, with [[Nelah]] while prisoner on [[Tay]], and hears phrases from other members of the [[Moiety]]. No trascriptions or translations were ever released. Explorer '''KathTheDragon''' attempted the transcriptions<ref>"[http://blackmoeity.boards.net/post/153/thread Rivenese Dialogue and Transcriptions]", Black Moiety forum, accessed November 17, 2019.</ref> that follow.

{{OOC|paragraph}}
[[Rivenese (language)|Rivenese]] is reportedly based on a dialect of '''Papua New Guinea'''. BladeLakem suggested [[w:Folopa|Folopa]] as the best candidate.<ref>See the [[Reference talk:Rivenese transcriptions#Folopa|Discussion page]] for this article.</ref>
