“ I've been translating what I can, but got stuck on the Covad Fragment. If what you’ve been doing here is correct, it might be because Covad isn’t true Dawnchant, but a phonetic transcription of another ancient language… ”
— Urv[1]
The Covad Fragment is an old untranslated manuscript thought to be written in Dawnchant.
After Dalinar and Navani released information about how to translate Dawnchant, many scholars started working on it in earnest. Ellista proposed that some of the more challenging fragments were potentially not Dawnchant, but rather its script being used to phonetically transcribe other languages. Ardent Urv, who studied the Covad, decided that this was an example of such a fragment.[1]
