The first time I read the term salting the Earth was in Eragon, and I was a little confused at the time. Was the Earth a little too bland for your taste buds? Wasn't salt extremely expensive? How would you even sprinkle the salt onto it? You're hands aren't that big.
I used to speak that as fluently as was possible with what was given. I still remember some of what that means, but I don't recall the exact words for this greeting.
