Your own heraldic picture

Postby Jar-Ptitsa » Sat Feb 11, 2017 3:41 pm

This was inspired by the language nerd thread, and in this thread you make your own herald.

You can use this website, if you want:

i made this one for Reineke:

then today when I started to make one for Teango (Reineke and Teango liked my posts with this on my log) I discovered that it's a bit updated, so you can write yoru own personalised motto, which wasn't there yesterday, or I didn't see it and only saw their list of mottos.

Teango: the palm tree and sun are becuase you live in hawaii.

Here is mine:

It would be fun to see your pictures :) If you prefer I will make one for you.

Nemo me impune lacessit. The motto goes well with the swords and guard animals (the four language skills?). I am flattered that you included a book. Thanks, vogeltje! Uh, mahalo nui loa, e ka ʻā ʻaia lani!

¡buen idea, decir tus propias palabras! ¿quieres que las pusiere? lo puedo hacer otra vez con este título.

good idea say your own words! would you like that I put them on it? I can do that again with this title.

Bitter sehr, Euleküken. :) Hier ist die wörtliche Übersetzung des vorherigen hawaiianischen Satzes: mahalo (Dank) nui (großen) loa (vielen), e [vokative Markierung] ka [geschlechtsloses Determinativ] ʻā ʻaia (ein legendärer hawaiianisher Vogel, der sich in Feuer oder feurige Lava verwandelte) lani (himmlischer).

En: You're welcome, owl chick. Here's a literal translation of the previous Hawaiian sentence: mahalo (thanks) nui (great) loa (many), e [vocative marker] ka [genderless determiner] ʻā ʻaia (a legendary Hawaiian bird who transforms into fire or fiery lava) lani (heavenly).

In the website you can choose 4 qualities, for example honesty, love animals etc, then you get a selection of pictures. The sword was on one of the heralds in the first step. Maybe you put love animals therefore they gave you a dolphin? I didn't see the dolphins, but cats, dogs, birds, elephants.
