Celtic select/order language

[MadmanOfALeader]

I just want to know, when you play as the Celts, what language are the select/order sounds in? Is it Irish, Welsh, Scottish, what?

 

[Crowqueen]

I think it might be either Irish Gaelic or some reconstructed version of the ancient Celtic languages. Maybe someone who lives/lived in Ireland and pays/paid more attention to the Gaelic language TV channel than I did when I lived in Dublin could help out, but it definitely doesn't sound like Welsh.

What about the Holy Roman sounds... it sorta sounds like German.

I just checked it. It is, but with a very strong dialect. "Wat kann I führ die doan?" = "Was kann ich für dich tun?" = "What can I do for you?"

sounds like todays frisian, low german or something like that.

By any chance, is the Native American language used in the game Lakhota?

I think the language of the Holy Roman Empire is called "Neder (Lower) Diets". It is a combination of Dutch and German words. It sounds very much like a dialect spoken in the east of the Netherlands.

In Dutch that sentence would be "Wat kan ik voor u doen?"

It's a mix between German & Dutch. If I have to guess, i would say something from the Selfkant

This could be, that's not too far off from my guess. And there where some sentences I wasn't sure If I completly got every word.

That's because it IS german. The Holy Roman Empire is the First Reich. There were three in history. One as I mentioned. the others being Prussia, & Hitler's. I categorizied them by their morality. The First is good. The second, for my opinion is neutral & the third is, of course, evil. Reich in German means "Empire". Correct me if I spelled it wrong.

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

Actually, the First Reich was Prussia, and the Second Reich was Bismarck's era... you were right about you-know-who, though.

 

[r_rolo1]

^^Civ4luvah2484 is right. The First Reich was HRE.

 

[Lillefix]

Have to agree with Civ4luvah2484 and r_rolo1(get some spellable nicks both of you) on HRE

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

You guys are all wrong!

The Third Reich wasn't evil... j/k

 

[CivLuvah]

You guys are all wrong!

The Third Reich wasn't evil... j/k

It is evil DUH!!!!!

 

[Zilar]

That's because it IS german

I don't know why you dig out the thread again to answer what has already been answered. Better someoner answer the OPs question.

About HRE:
As we already said, it is no plain german. It has a very strong dialect or even some dutch words. (But if you take a frisian dialect then it sometimes nearly sounds like half dutch...) But of course it is historically correct to take something resembling german.

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

It is evil DUH!!!!!

Hence the j/k.

 

[RedRalph]

Its hard to hear but I think its scots gaelic, its not Irish anyhow (or a very unusual dialect of it if it is)

 

[CivLuvah]

Hence the j/k.

I know. duh!

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

I can't resist Hitler's moustache...

Anyway, what about the Native American language?

 

[ripple01]
