@Eddie Brock: Give me some time.. I have to search, collect and actually type out my hand written notes. xD


You have handwritten notes?
Ancient Greek lesson time!

ὡς δὴ καλὸν τὸ χρῆμα τιτθίων ἔχεις.

Basically, if you know the "Little Red Riding Hood" fairy tale, then you should be able to get the first line ("How large a mouth you have, grandma!).

ὡς = How! (Exclamatory)
ἔχεις = main verb, 2nd person singular, "have"
καλὸν = "beautiful, good, fine"
τὸ χρῆμα = when it takes a genitive case (what τιτθίων is in), it expresses size.

Edit: Blame this on Aristophanes, not me.

I'm pretty sure I know, or have a good idea anyways. And yeah Google Translate can be garbage but it's the only thing I have.


Let's just say that Kalistar would say (and do) what the Greek says.
@Dedonus There needs to be a confused button on these boards. As a public good money has titthion? ᾇper priests TEI m ypopsalassete? Huh!?


I see you used Google translate. First, Google Translate is a piece of %#@#. Second, the "Greek" it has is for modern Greek, not ancient.

I mean, I have Arachne giving an angry face. What the heck do you think it means?
Since I know that some of you have your heads buried in the gutter, I thought you might appreciate these two lines of Greek that I was reading for class today. Look up Aristophanes Lysistrata to find out what they mean (lines 84-5). ;) And yes, there is a Greek word that looks like a certain English word. It means the same thing.

ὡς δὴ καλὸν τὸ χρῆμα τιτθίων ἔχεις.

ᾇπερ ἱερεῖόν τοί μ᾽ ὑποψαλάσσετε.

Arachne: >.<

Oh. Shouldn't that be clarified then? Or any home countries for that matter.


Also, it is mentioned in the Vigilante's CS here. Now if only he would move his characters to the Character Tab...

You do realize that Terraria was always in the OP, right?
<Snipped quote by nitemare shape>

What? I'm not scary enough? Or should I add more tentacles.. I suppose I can.


That's not something you would want to trump...
Just be glad that Kali wasn't around to add to that...


That really would scare people away.
<Snipped quote by Dedonus>

Promise? If they are scared off this easily, they might not survive the arcs or the humor!


I had to look back a couple posts because I couldn't remember what I was responding to.
