I figured I would get away with it because in all honesty "High Gothic" from what I understand is Latin-like rather than Latin so that is kinda why I went to Google translate simply to make them Latin sounding. The reverse translations for most of the names weren't even close to the original; I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't cheat and highlighted that it wasn't that great anyway.<br /><br />Sadly, I've already ordered some name plates for my bases so the horrific translations are going to stay so it's not like a don't give a damn that that's the case but I will keep in mind the above for my next traitor titans :)Hector Cephashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01740586730325375390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171473526147600929.post-82678945196353164622019-03-02T19:15:35.186+00:002019-03-02T19:15:35.186+00:00You might want to watch out for your word endings....You might want to watch out for your word endings. I really admire your dedication to name all of your engines in Latin, but I trust Google translate about as far as I can throw it. As a classicist, I would recommend looking for a good solid English to Latin dictionary and a Latin Primer (grammar book) in your local second hand bookshop. <br /><br />Latin is very much like English in that it has lots of synonyms. You can often find a much cooler sounding adjective or noun than Google translate will offer. For example, searching for killer / assassin will yield about 10 results. Some sound cooler than others!<br /><br />After that it is key that you get your cases correct (subject, object, genitive(possessive) etc.), hence the primer. <br /><br />Or, don't give a damn about any of that because the number of people who realise you've done anything wrong is very limited!Snoochynoochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08638379348168938580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171473526147600929.post-39713367476307896212019-03-02T11:34:26.250+00:002019-03-02T11:34:26.250+00:00High Gothic is designedfor just this, pidgeon Lati...High Gothic is designedfor just this, pidgeon Latin that sounds great! I have Canis Bellum “Dog Of War” (Warhound) and Dominus Victoria “ Lord of War” (Warlord) so High Gothic is awesome for that!
