Specific Name Review: Structures

[Doktoreus]

Hi Nescio,

I put together a "Structure" listing as you suggested. I went through each template in the "Structures" directory to pull the "Specific" and "Generic" names for the list. Some items didn't have anything and some only had one or the other. I used some of the generic templates from the "Templates" directory itself and some of the names I found by playing the game to see what displayed. Could you please look at the file and let me know if this is what you wanted? A few of the structures don't seem to exist in the game, such as "Range" and Workshop" or "Stables" for most of the Civs.

I'm working on the unit listing now.

Thanks,

Dok

Great, that's exactly what I wanted!

If a value is not specified in the template itself, it inherits it from its parent (specified in line 2); that's how XML works (and why it's useful).

This is one of the reasons why having this list is useful. (Those three structures were added relatively recently, long after the others, and are not yet used in game. However, they should get specific names.)

When ready, use the @[user name] tag in your post to ensure we (@Itms and @Nescio) are automatically notified.

I will just start with one civ and move on day by day as I work myself through it.

(also, the 'successor' Greeks should rather have a 'Basileion' building instead of an 'Agora' - where do I suggest adjustments of actual names? help?)

Could you have a look at the file and post what the specific names for the Greek factions should be? Please write polytonic Greek. The proper transliteration could be decided later. Also, any suggestions for the Archery Range, Stable, and Workshop?

@Genava55 and @GunChleoc, could you do that for the Briton and Gaulish specific names?

@Sundiata, could you check the Kushite specific names?

Reconstructed Late Egyptian/Napatan Dialect (and one Meroitic) specific names, accompanied by the literal translation 

• Archery Range:      Pr-Pdt                 (house of the bow)
• Cavalry Stable:       Ỉḥ Ssmt              (horse stable)
• Elephant Stable:     Ỉḥ Abu                (elephant stable),   or probably more appropriate:    Meroitic:   Ỉḥ Abore
• Siege Workshop:    Pr-ỉwn n ms      (house of the movable tower)

@Nescio I did a list in the past in this thread for the buildings. I can do the rest one day for all the units and others buildings if it is necessary:

Thanks for pointing that out, I was unaware of that.

It took me a while, but I did a review of the possible labeling for the buildings. After a lot of hesitation and reading about which name is the best and personal reconstruction (I did my best) here my proposition:

Gauls buildings:

Building	Actual name	New name
House	Annedd	Tegia
Corral	Cavalidos	Cagion
Farm	Varmo	Olca
Civic-center	Caer	Lissos
Barracks	Gwersyllty	Coriosedlon
Rotary Mill	Melonas	Brauon
Storehouse	Ystordy	Capanon
Farmstead	Ffermdy	Buta
Blacksmith	Amoridas	Gobanion
Market	Marchnaty	Magos
Fortress	Dun	Dunon
Tower	Tyrau	Uxelon
Wall	Gwarchglawdd	Rate
Gate	Duro	Duoricos
Temple	Addoldy	Nemeton
Port	Crannoc	Counos
New buildings
Feast-center		Celicnon
Hemicycle		Remogantion
Monument		Mediolanon

Bretons buildings:

Building	Actual name	New name
House	Annedd	Tegia
Corral	Cavalidos	Cagion
Farm	Varmo	Olca
Civic-center	Caer	Tigernotreba
Barracks	Gwersyllty	Coriosessa
Rotary Mill	Melonas	Brauon
Storehouse	Ystordy	Capanon
Farmstead	Ffermdy	Buta
Blacksmith	Amoridas	Gobanion
Market	Marchnaty	Magos
Fortress	Dun	Dunon
Tower	Tyrau	Uxelon
Wall	Gwarchglawdd	Rate
Gate	Duro	Duoricos
Temple	Addoldy	Nemeton
Port	Crannoc	Counos
New buildings
Irish-royal site		Comardrigantion
Monument		Cantalon

 

Feast-center means Tavern and Tower means Wall Tower? In that case, the following appear to be missing: outpost, sentry tower, defence tower, archery range, cavalry stable, siege workshop, and dog kennel.

If I understand correctly, the names in the second column are currently used in 0 A.D., which you propose to change into those listed in the third column. Which language(s) are you using?

@Itms What's 0 A.D.'s policy on unattested, reconstructed forms?

And whom can I contact for the Carthaginian, Iberian, and Mauryan specific names?

@stanislas69 Could you split off the post starting with the one containing the txt file (#367473) to form a new “Specific names review” thread?

There is no policy so far, but I don't think we would have an issue with them (we might need them anyways, because we are not going to restrict the gameplay on the basis of attested names for buildings and units). If we have a documentation with the source, of course, it would be important to mark the forums as reconstructed there. But in the game they don't need to be marked as such.

I have Sanskrit resources for Mauryas.

[Thorfinn the Shallow Minded]

There is an online lexicon, including some basic vocabulary here: http://ancientroadpublications.com/Studies/AncientLanguage/Phoenician.pdf  I'm fairly sure that it isn't quite the right dialect, but it could be a good starting point.  

All the words are unvocalised, making the reconstruction a bit hard, but Plautus' play Poenus apparently did have some Punic featured in it that is vocalised.

From what I understand polytonic Greek will not be committed it's just to get a common base for everything before we transliterate them.

Let us just continue with polytonic Latin transliteration. Here is the CORRECTED LIST, corrections in bold:

Hi, where is the corrected list located. It was not attached to your post.

@Anaxandridas ho Skandiates Thank you, that's helpful, I'll have a critical look at it later. For the archery range, perhaps try “practice field” or something similar? Also, ptol and sele wonders?

@Itms Could you check the Mauryan specific names, correcting where necessary, and find appropiate strings for the Mauryan archery range, cavalry stables, siege workshop, and wonder?

Also, Persians? (Old Persian, not Farsi.)

[Nescio]

@Imarok or @stanislas69, could you move this entire thread into the game development sub-forum and rename it to “structure specific name review”?

Checked with my LSJ; mostly fine; a few points, though:

• barracks: I'd recommend using ἡ στρατοπεδεία, ἡ στρατοπέδευσις, or ἡ στρατόπεδον (encampment) instead
• civic centre: it's probably better to stick to the agora for all factions; a royal palace is not the same as a city-centre
• elephant stable: just stathmos is too generic, it can basically be used for about anything; perhaps add ἐλεφάντων?
• towers: personally I dislike it the free-standing defence tower uses the same word as the wall tower; unfortunately I don't have a better alternative right now
• workshop: I opted for simply ergastęrion

Ptol wonder, as with Macedonian wonder, we should seriously consider making new wonders. Actually the BASILEION of Alexandria, the royal palace which hosted the Mousaion and great library, is the REAL WONDER. Now that the Pharos is in already in the game.

Macedonian wonder was suggested a palace like that from Pella, in the similar style, wonder could also just be called Basíleion - or maybe Basíleion méga

Yes, I'd also like new wonders (and the removal of that Athenian “Hellenic Royal Stoa”), but that's a different discussion and belongs elsewhere.

For Siege Workshop, would "Synergeion Poliorkias" work? "Stablos Elefanta" wouldn't work for Elephant Stables, or is that too literal or out of time frame? "Toxobolia" no bueno for the Range?
