The Language of the Witches:

In this story, sometimes witches speak a special language. These words will be italicized to set them apart. In this language A’s are generally pronounced like a short O, like in the words “wash” or “tall”. R’s are slightly rolled. In general, the language sounds a lot like Russian.
