Talk:Carmin

Could it be "Calmons", for "We calm"?Glorious CHAOS! 03:50, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

I assume that'd be "karumon," but I've been winging a lot of this French, so you're the boss.—Urutapu 03:52, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

The word calment in French wouldn't apply for this case (I know I should be studying, but something compelled me to come here) - because the ent in calment is NEVER pronounced. Could it be calmons - (we) calm, or calmant - calming ? Helping others always comes before asking others for help. • TroisNyxÉtienne

Wait, so "calment" is pronounced "calm"? And I thought I had figured out French phonetics...well, anyway, I guess it'd be calmant, since like I said, I think "calmons" would be "karumon," not "karuman."—Urutapu 13:50, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Calmant it is, then. Calment is pronounced "calm". I'm as good as new! All my functions have been restored! • TroisNyxÉtienne

Unbirth Discussion — Et moi, Jack, L'EPOUVANTAIL ! Ils me trouvent génial, mes mauvais tours les émerveillent, tous les ans c'est le triomphe et la gloire. In french Calmant can mean calming or sedative. I don't really get the link with larxene's weapon, maybe they make a connection between her knives and some syringes or something...

Not all of the names make that much sense. ("Indigo"?)—Urutapu 22:40, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Or, it could make a reference to the indigo of a colour spectrum, which is part of Nature anyhow. @Unbirth : Sedative ? Anaesthetic on Larxene ? Yowzer ! Sounds like a paradox to call a knife, an object used to inflict suffering, Calmant ! :P Helping others always comes before asking others for help. • TroisNyxÉtienne

Calmant translates to calming, but carmin translates to carmine, which is a type of red hue. Today you will be examined for the Mark of Mastery. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 01:31, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

True, the weapon is red.

Well, looks like the new translation is already put in use, unless we get any further name changes. Which reminds me... I wonder why other versions use French names, but the French version actually doesn't. TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 01:37, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

I'm going to add the Calmant note back in, but TNE, is "Carmine" an appropriate reading of the Japanese name? Was it ever "Calmant", or was it always "Carmine"?Glorious CHAOS! 15:04, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
