Honestly, the problem is that I tend to maintain class/education distinctions through the use of Latinate words, and it's hard to make the shift when writing about the Eorlingas. I'm pretty proud of some of the adjustments I've made earlier, but I realized I'd put this one off long enough to get too hung up on the matter and just posted. I may go back and revise, though, as soon as my brain is in better working order.
