Bump.

Éu, Marcel Tafial, votéu talmint:

1. Iac Marscheir
2. Glüc da Dhi
3. Txoteu Davinescu.

If I understand Lexh H 21 correctly, there are no separate nomination and election phases when it comes to picking the Túischac'h. If members of the Cosă representing at least 101 of the seats countersign a given nomination, the candidate is chosen. If I counted it correctly, my nomination is currently at 84 seats.

This doesnt seem to be going anywhere. I hereby countersign my own nomination.

I'm working on an English-language Talossan ABCs song.  Where is the page which describes how to pronounce the name of each Talossan letter, i. e. in English the letter 'H' being pronounced 'aitch'?

At the bottom of the Orthography section in the Recomendăs.

Unsure if useful, but in Spanish that'd be "aquí abajo", which is not common in legalese. What's used, instead, is "debajo", an adverbial combination of de- + bajo ("de-" is not a preposition but a prefix: https://dle.rae.es/de-). Perhaps there's a similar combination in Talossan.

As far as I can tell, there isn't, which makes words like "above" and "below" so difficult to translate. There are words for "from above" and "from below", which are "dasupra" ('supra' by itself doesnt exist) and "d'under" ('under' means down) respectively, which isn't really helpful either...

QuoteThank you. Can you also please help me with this phrase:

The relevant Organic Law is quoted below

Thanks,

"below" is a difficult word but I guess it should be
El Legeu Orgänic relevint isch quotat aicì bäts.

QuoteI'm in the process of trying to add Talossan names for things when creating official documents in my role as Secretár d'Estat. As such, I know that an individual MC is Membreu dal Cosă. If I remember correctly, the plural is Membreaux, right?

*Secretar d'Estat, *Membreux

QuoteAlso, I'm interested in perhaps slightly modifying the names of the boards here in Wittenberg. For example:
[...]
Any thoughts?

The translations are accurate, but in all honesty, I'm not sure what this would accomplish. We've been using Talossan terms for a great deal of things for years (Cosă, Senäts, Ziu, Seneschal, per, non, austanéu...) and nothing much has come of it (I bet most Talossan dont know how these words are even pronounced),

Azul everyone. New word suggestion.

Talossan word: infrastrütür
English translation: infrastructure
Part of speech: Noun (masculine)
Context (e.g. citations for use, word origin, etc.): infrared --> infraroxh / structure --> strütür / infra- + structure --> infra- + strütür --> infrastrütür

---

This word seems like a no-brainer to me, and I might as well add it right away. Any objections?

Keep in mind this thread, being on Wittenberg instead of the Chat Room, is visible to non-citizens. You might want to redact the link just to be safe.

5 years maximum civil disability? 500 louis maximum fine (which would be half our total treasury)?

BUMP. Any other suggestions on maximum civil disabilities and fines?

I checked the case again, and ESB got 8 months for each count of violating the Anti-Impostor and Liar Act, and an additional 3 months for each count of violating Wis. Stat. § 947.0125. The way I understand it, a flat maximum of 5 years civil disability wouldnt have affected the sentencing since each individual punishment is well below it, and to be honest I think People v. ESB was somewhat of a special case.

EDIT:
My idea for maximum punishments would be something like this:
Felony -- 5 years of civil disability and/or ℓ500 ($750)
Severe misdemeanour -- 1 year of civil disability and/or ℓ100 ($150)
Misdemeanour -- 6 months of civil disability and/or ℓ50 ($75)

19:00 UTC = 14:00 CDT = 21:00 CEST = 07:00 NZST
(Here's a link to the timezone converter I used)

This would work for me (and maybe Kiwis if they wake up early enough). Though I must say, I'm a bit disappointed that we have to split up these calls by timezones for practical reasons...

Also, voting for the Túischac'h is going to be difficult as long as more than half of all Cosă seats are left unassigned...

I humbly accept the nomination.

I realise that the Túischac'h doesnt have that much to do outside of Living Cosăs -- the fact that the Mençei is mentioned in the Organic Law but not the Túischac'h makes it seem like the latter was an afterthought, which is odd since it's usually the other way around in other countries with a similar set up -- so, should I be elected, I'd love to conduct a Living Cosă at some point. I've been a fan of watching recordings of German parliamentary sessions for a while now, so I think this could potentially be really fun!

Oh, also,

On a personal level, my own concern for Túischac'h is that they be a productive and active member of the CRL.

what's CRL stand for?
