Els cätsilor
 

Els calignheirs ardientéux es els scoleirs aspierdéux
Ament ocså, en las sïăs årstið maiorcit,
Els cätsilor mac'htici es amebles, la fiirtà dal casă,
Qi, come lors, sint sfredülösen es sint secureux.

Amíci dal siensă es del plaschair,
Os quairent à silençù es Þoror dal auscürità ;
Erebus tenedra apüntat lors come sieux armißairs da brüs
Schi os povadrent alivrar lor pridă àð esclavatx.

Quand qe os restent pensind, os preindent els atitüds novais
Dals grülts sfinxhăs porec'htourmint in las profünditaes dals solitans
Qi semblent dormeschar in ünă reivă infinival ;

Lors clüns frütösen sint pien da matxentici s.chinteiăs,
Dels pocs oreschti, ünä fină c'haulă ocså,
Iluminent vägmint lors pupís müsticais.

 

This rock takes its name initially from its characteristic form of dragon's crest (see photo above) but above all from the Breton legend of the dragon of Élorn.

In the Arthurian legend, the dragon is the specific enemy of the knights and popular or literary traditions have transmitted to us some figures of knights slaying dragons.  In the sixth century, three knights, Jacques de Néventer, Jean-Baptiste Derrien and Barnabé de Riek came to the aid of Élorn, who had been designated by King Bristokus as the next victim of a dragon terrifying the region.  The dragon was so surprised to be challenged by 3 knights that he allowed himself to be apprehended and led by the bridle to the castle of King Bristokus.

To thank them, the king gave each the hand of one of his daughters: Edmée, Valentine and Clémentine.  From the castle, they ordered the dragon to throw itself into the sea. Thus, today, it would be the back of the dragon of Élorn which rests on the seabed off our fair Isle.

I saw similar legends for other dragon-shaped rocks in Brittany, so this one may not be the real remains of a dragon.

Formidable! Est-ce-qu'on peut traduire tout en Francais?


...and should someone who speaks French correctly help us? <you know who you are> <grin>

J´ai peur que cela ne profite qu'à nous deux... y a-t-il d'autres francophones à Cézembre ?
I'm afraid it benefits only to the two of us.. are there other French speakers in Cézembre ?
.. this being said, we surely want to avoid the Witt to become to tower of Babel, what do you think of Xhorxh Pol's initiative to inventory our language skills ?
Btw, congrats for your french, I hope it was not too difficult to work for a French company !

And one from last week, in the style of 'requiem for a dream' poster

Doesn't it look like a T-Rex bathing ?

Quote from: xpb on May 15, 2023, 06:41:19 AM@ þerxh is the recipe for "Galette à l'Andouille et au Camembert" what you contributed to https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=2161.msg19481#msg19481?  If not, then perhaps that could be added as well.

No, I suggested a much simpler recipe.. a 'galette de sarrasin' (buckwheat pancake) is something which is much better appreciated when eaten in a 'crêperie' (pancake restaurant) than if you try to make it yourself. Another good reason to do the Euro-Haxh !

Thanks X. Pol
So let's go for ///magic.magnificence.wreckage, which is obviously the best place for an hidden pirates' treasure

Azul [mention]xpb [/mention] ! my proposal in the RAK for discussion


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I humbly propose the following for discussion before vote or adoption by acclamation :

DRAFT FOR DISCUSSION BY HONOURABLE CITIZENS OF THE PROVINCE OF CEZEMBRE :

WHEREAS Cézembre - famous for its title of best province of Talossa - is distant from motherland GTA but close to the heart of all citizens knowledgeable of Talossan history;

Wheras it should be part of all spiritual path for Talossan citizens to visit Cézembre once in a life, duty known in Talossan as « Euro Haxh »;

Whereas it should be an honour but also a duty for all Talossan Citizens lucky enough to live near our beloved Island to welcome and guide co-citizens who travel their way to there;

Whereas the "Galette à l'Andouille et au Camembert" is a Cézembre regional culinary speciality that all educated citizen should have tried once (as such, a delicious brittonic buckwheat pancake with chitterling sausage slices and melted camembert);

Be it resolved that :

Firstly, « The Royal Tourist Office of the Island od Cézembre », known officially in El Glheþ as "L'Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre", is created, and is given the mission to promote tourism to Cézembre by advertising the numerous qualities of the island and its coastal surroundings, whether historical, geographical, culinary or fiscal (OP being doubtful on the last one);

Secondly, the position of Director, known as « El Zirecteir del Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre", is created, and his mission defined as to welcome and guide Talossan visitors onto Cézembre and around, namely in the cities of Saint-Malo and Dinard, provided this Director is not empeached by his professional duties (i.e. better select French school holidays to be sure of his presence on-shore) or by personal important issues;

Thirdly,  is hereby appointed, þerxh Sant-Enogat as such Director, given with the first title of "Zirecteir del Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre", on the main bribery-like reason he has sworn to offer on his own monies a "Galette à l'Andouille et au Camembert" to the first 20 talossan citizens who will take the "Euro Haxh" under his office (alternative galette vegan-fillings possible).

(Thanks to Marcel for the Talossan words and please pardon my French)

Congratulations for the great job you do on Centraseirā ! Thanks to you I may slowly get to appreciate cycling.. and the last position (now shared !) is the best one to enjoy the view of the race from the inside

Dear X. Pol
Do you think I should introduce an official request in the RAK for the creation of the Rexhital Óifisch del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre ? I can prepare a project for the end of the week.
Þ

Estimats membreux del Coletx d'Armeux Rexhital,
What is my name? Þerxh Sant-Enogat, newly immigrated in our beloved Kingdom, in the province of Cézembre.
What is my request?
If it so please the Squirrel King of Arms, I request the assistance of the College in designing and obtaining arms for myself and my lawful heirs
What is my favourite colour ? Red ! Eeuur, no.. Green !
I would indeed greatly appreciate to be guided to transform my initial ideas into Arms I would be proud to present.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on May 10, 2023, 07:45:05 AMMinTech is currently working on making sure the design conforms to ICAO standards and implementing the machine readable zone on the back.  We might even be able to automate the process of producing these, with a simple form spitting out a finished version -- although that would just be for fun, since making these will be very easy now.  We just copied the previous design, tweaking it a little as necessary.

Classy look, congrats ! Would it help to include a QR code linked to citizen profile, in order to check citizenship validity ?

I am very grateful for your trust, and greatly enjoy to be part of our famous nation.  Looking forward to discovering more and more !
Þerxh
