medieval translators (off topic)

how would you translate . . .

"You have more than 250 gold. A peasant has been sent to obtain your construction orders"

...into - old English - Orcish - Elvish and the language of the undead ???



oh, and whoever has some witty ideas will get mentioned in my map

 

[Neopolis3]

"Thou hath over two-hundreth and fifty gold pieces. A peasant hath been senth te obtain ye construction' orders."

 

[Doomhammer]

That's pretty damn good...
I like it! Which of the four 'languages' is it?

english from about years 1600 or so.(shakespear)

old english is Very different and nobody would understand.

 

[Just a guest]

"We got many gold. We send slave. Tell slave what to do."

That's brilliant - must be orcish, right?

 

[Yoshii]

ge agan pon ma 250 gold would be the translation for "you have more than 250 gold"

thats from old english hehe hard to translate.

 

[Doomhammer]

Good stuff, Yoshii. It's long time ago since I was forced to read McBeath (which is actually a pretty good piece of literature)

lasts the undead and the elven version

 

[mixmax2]

orcish, elvish, and undead would be in there own language... and im not sure if theres wc3 translators lying around anywhre --..--

 

[Sargon]

I'll figure out the Elvish version in a bit. Give me about a day or so.

 

[w/e]

Sisters,thy trees of life have provided us with 250 coins.A wisp has been sent to retrieve the information for summoning our next haven. Do not let these delicate plans fall into the hands of the wicked! Niagraphana! *everyone else repeats random, elvish sounding word* Niagraphana!

? you started this topic....

 

[DM Cross]

I know some Elvish... What are you trying to translate?

 

[w/e]

"You have more than 250 gold. A peasant has been sent to obtain your construction orders"

 

[mixmax2]

elves wouldnt be speaking in common unless they were talking to a commoner, and if they were speaking in common then ud have to make all the OTHER races speak in common, and then itll pretty much be


original- hey watsup common - hey watsup all races- hey watsup, then there pretty much would be no differentiating the races, mentioning sisters and the moon but still speaking english does not do anything -.- your best bet would be to just display normal english for everything, or find urself a translator to give u the actual way to talk in that fictional language

"We got many gold. We send slave. Tell slave what to do."
