Lion.Kanzen Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 A debate that comes up from time to time and the best way to do it is to make an open and general topic where we can talk about the different ways in which 0 A.D. can be perceived. Names almost like a person's personal name is something that in a way defines him or her. We are discussing that in German the name null A.D. sounds very cool. But we had to take into account how a null value is perceived in other languages or if there is a possibility of an alternative. Topic is not to change the name of the game. It is mostly to think about the possibilities of translating the name or different names. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted January 27 Author Report Share Posted January 27 I am going to give my opinion on how the equivalent of null sounds in Spanish. It sounds null. What can also be perceived as invalid, let's see what the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Language (RAE) tells us. 1. adj. Falto de valor y fuerza para obligar o tener efecto, por ser contrario a las leyes, o por carecer de las solemnidades que se requieren en la sustancia o en el modo. It say the following: Nulo or Nula in Spanish is Without: invalid, inoperative, inoperative, irr., illusory. Ant: valid, legal, legitimate, in force. 2. adj. Incapable, physically or morally, for something. Sin: incapable, inept, useless. Ant: capable, fit, apt, useful. 3. adj. nonexistent (‖ lacking existence). His interest was null. The null preparation of some candidates. Without: nonexistent. 4. adj. Said of a boxing match: -That has no winner, because both fighters have scored the same number of points. 5. adj. gram. Said of a linguistic element: Having no phonetic expression. 6. adj. Mat. having a value equal to zero. Synonyms or cognates of null and void, invalid, inoperative, invalid, illusory. invalid, inoperative, invalid, illusory. incapable, inept, useless. nonexistent. Therefore, it is somewhat negative in cognitive terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
