    Anyone speak Latin?
    Hey there! Anyone speak latin (late latin similar to what was spoken during the middle ages)? I'm in need of a simple translation from "Master Archer" from english to latin. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Mironyc,
    I do not speak the language personally, so this is far from an authoritative translation, and as with many translations there is probably a bit of room for interpretation and style -- but the most accurate translation I could achieve is: "Dominatus Sagittarium." Or in the case of a masterly mounted archer: "Dominatus Hippotoxota."
    From what I can tell, "Graphicus" could be considered a wholly acceptable alternative to "Dominatus", but has its origins in painting, and therefore, perhaps, in my own opinion, has the potential to lend itself to a bit of confusion.
    Anyhow, I hope this helps. :)
