Known words/phrases
Behind the scenes
- In the DC Extended Universe, the House of El family coat of arms is not "el mayarah" (stronger together) but rather the symbol for hope, mistaken by humans as the letter "S".
- The Kryptonese used in episodes 2, 6, 7, and 13 of Season 3 is a fan-made conlang created by Darren Doyle, who is yet to be created for it. All information on the language can be found at kryptonian.info. He has created several pages breaking down and correcting the phrases used in canon.
