  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Well: blade = russë (noun) literally: a sword-blade (poetic) OR maica (noun) ...used of a cutting tool or weapon, especially sword-blade;
warrior = 1.) ohtar (noun) 2.) mahtar (noun)
masculine ending = -no

IMO, the best combination of these words (also what I think suits you best) is: Russëmahtarno.

(pronounced: Roo-seh-mah-tar-no)

If I'm wrong, Morv will tell me... if he's still around... >__>

Aww thanks guys... :blush: I've had a smidge of practice; I think it's more due to the fact that I have a lot of great resources!! :hug:

kk, what do u suggest for the name of the thread and the name that we translate for the ad?
I was thinking something along the lines of:

(HazelAngel) "My Elvish name is "Kottulainumë" - what's yours? Come find out here! ^_^

(Wolfman544) My name in Elvish is "Rácamo". Wanna know yours? Speak friend, and enter! :D

What do you think?

We could do this one. Do u agree with that?

Wolfman is Rácamo, Hazel Angel is Kottulainumë,
Wormie is .... and Morvular is .....
Whats urs?? Speak friend and enter.

Or we could say some words for friend e.g Rafiki (in Swahili) and then we say the Elvish word for friend and then u enter the page to c whats in it. I no a bit of Swahili and that is what it means.

My own username, Morvaltur, is a combination of three Quenya "syllables." Mor means "dark" or "darkness." Val means "power," and Tur is a suffix meaning "master of" or "mastery" or just "master." Thus, literally, Morvaltur means "dark power mastery," but translated as a name it means "Master of the Dark Power." In this context I am using dark to refer to darkness or night, not evil.
*grins* So no, I am not a satanic priest.

Morv posted this a while ago :D His name is in Elvish already.

And I don't think there is an Elvish equivalent of "Wormie", but I shall have a look.... *goes searching*

EDIT: Kottulainumë, mellon nin, you are welcome to put that in your sig, or on your CF home page (wherever you see fit). Alternatively, you could just put "Pedo mellon a minno" :cool:

I no this isnt the place for it wolfman or wormie nor Moultavar but a bit of Maori u should know. If I said ppl here were friendly I could have said ppl here r ratarata or ppl here r hoahoa. I will translate the full sentence if u guys wish me too. Friend in Maori is hoa or apati so that is a part of the riddle that I am makin up wolfman with the words friend in other languages. If anyone knows either friend in another languages (not Maori, English, African or Elvish) they could help in completin the riddle.

Maori is the national language of NZ Wolfman. They came to NZ before the Europeans first settled here. They call English Pakehas too so in both our respects we r all pakeha, hehehe. Unfriendly in Maori is atawhai kino or whakakeke so I am glad I dont have to say no one is either atawhai kino or whakakeke here at Christian Forums. Here is where I found out all the stuff bout friendlyness and unfriendliness.

Maori have a whole lot of customs and rules e.g u cant touch a persons head and u cant sit on the tables. When we say thats rude they say that is tapu and u cant do that. U get the Maori language now Wolfman544

U do. The All Blacks haka is in Maori too. Something that intrigues me, it might intrigue u Wolfman is they say prayers before and after meals or something like that but after every prayer they do (this is the part that entrigues me) they say amene. I wonder why that is but I am sure to find out what it means and I will b sure to post what it means here.

It could b this though 'āmine' which is Maori for Amen. That could b it but I dunno. I will have to look that up or ask a good friend of mine what amene means because I have got maori friends that dont go here and dont know about this, in fact I am sure out of all my Maori friends no one knows about this website.

That is interesting.
It could be amen, or something with similar meaning. Or something completely different
