 No.925

And not it's not for homework.

Is this spelled properly:

ordo immortalis bellatorum

 No.938

Yes


 No.1033

I don't want to create another thread so, how do you say "Football Club" in Latin, also how do you say "Hyperborea" in Latin? I'm creating a football club in FM 2015 and I want it named in Latin.


 No.1034

>>925

"Immortal order of fighters"? Yes. "Order of immortal fighters" would be Ordo Bellatorum Immortalium, just in case.

>>1033

Societas pedilusoria and (terra) Hyperborea?

Are Italy and Germany the only countries left that offer Latin lessons in regular schools?

It's still taught in Dutch high schools, as far as I know. Do they teach Ancient Greek in Germany?

>mfw Western civilization forgets its roots

 No.1043

>>1042

It's still taught in some highschools.

Just about 15 000 students learn it each year and it's a requirement for some university courses.

It's still alive, but could be better. Germany is renown for Classical studies, after all.


 No.1049

>>1042

The problem is that Latin is taught as a ded language - but language is something alive. After 4 years of Latin most of it is gone, while I attained fluency in english in about the same time - and folk in my paralhaha class learned french in the same amount of time.

It's comparable to French, Italian and Spanish difficulty wise and thousands of people learn these languages, why not Latin? The entire academia was once based around people knowing Latin, now only a handful of people can write or dare to even speak the language.


 No.1050

>>1049

>paralhaha

wtf fingers, should be paralhaha


 No.1149

>>1034

I need the same in Old Norse, anyone know?

Also how do you spell emperor in old norse?


 No.1151

>>1149

Football club?

Icelandic uses knattspyrnufélag. And I don't think anything is different in Old Norse; knöttur is knǫttr ("ball") (ö/ǫ is U-umlaut instead of a; there is no U-umlaut when you make a compound), spyrna ("kick") stays the same, and perhaps only félag should be changed; félagi means pretty much "fellow", félag means roughly to lay fe (assets) together; so more the state of being a fellow to someone than a company of fellows itself. I should search for a more appropriate word though.


 No.1152

>>1149

Emperor is a bit of a problem, because there were no Emperors in Norse cultural area. Even Atli (Attila) was merely a konungr, "king". It would be best to see how the Norse addressed the Byzantine Emperors, but I don't find anything on runestones.


 No.1163

>>1152

Maybe commander instead? Like imperator was a commander in rome, the same position would be?


 No.1164

>>1163

harja in Proto Norse, herr in Old Norse


 No.1165

>>1164

Also caesar was a loanword in Old Norse, keisari


 No.1167

>>1164

Is there somewhere I can learn proto-norse instead of using /lang/ for everything? Or Proto-Germanic?

I want to learn a language which is completely pure, without borrowed languages.

Also another question how do you say fuhrer in proto-norse or proto-germanic?


 No.1168

>>1167

or maybe instead of commander, another names that could be used, like leader, protector, director, etc.


 No.1169

>>1167

Here's a bretty gud book on Proto-Germanic

http://gen.lib.rus.ec/book/index.php?md5=cc9b9288d1aa5057eeb211be03891dfa

I've never seen a book sohahay on Proto-Norse

Also Fuhrer comes from the PG root fōrijaną, I have no idea how to turn it into leader, fuggen grammar.

anywhere I can learn PIE?


 No.1171

Nowhere, sorry.


 No.1172


 No.1174

>>1169

hmm, I'm interested in forijana. Is there a complete version of this in old norse?


 No.1175

>>1174

Says it right on the page brah, the Old Norse descendent of fōrijaną is fœra


 No.1178

>>1167

>I want to learn a language which is completely pure, without borrowed languages.

Sorry, neither Old Norse nor Proto-Germanic are completely pure. At the least, they have Celtic borrowings like *rīks, and derived *rīkiją (Reich) (from Proto-Celtic *rīxs), instead of regularly-derived rēgz and derived *rēgiją (which would evolve into Modern German *Reek'').


 No.1179

>>1175

So Führer would be *fœrari. (though -ari itself is derived from Latin)
