| Author | [HWM Daily] Dictionary Suggestions |
|---|
Good day Lords and Ladies,
We have received a suggestion regarding creating a dictionary/slang dictionary that will make articles easier to read and clarify all the terms that were blended and messed up through out the years. Both the official news and articles on HWM Daily have been translated by different people resulting in creation of different terms for the same in game words e.g. (faction skill- faction ability). While this case is trivial there are many that are not and often you have no idea what a particular term means. In order to make the dictionary as broad as possible I will need your help. If you have a term in mind please leave it in commentaries here in one of the following formats:
1) english term- english slang term (e.g. potion of skill - PoS)
2) russian term- english term- english slang term
3) russian term- russian slang term- english term- english slang term
4) russian slang term- english term- english slang term
5) english term- english slang, english slang ( in case there are different slang terms used for the same concept)
6) english term- english term etc.
It will also be great if you could link the pages where different terms are used for the same thing so that we can correct it and make a single term used.
I would like to see some hardcore flooding in this discussion! ;)
Sincerely Spartak142 | We have something like this

EC, ER, RW, TL, SS, LL, WD, DC, MM, BM, FT, CG, PC, EN, US, SC, SA, TW, PR, MC, HC, TV, FV, KC.
Of them, EC(Empire Capital), ER(East river), PC(Peaceful camp), FV(Fishing village), FT(Fairy trees) are mostly mentioned due to Mercenary guilds.
US (Ungovernable steppe) and HC(Harbor city) is also frequently used for event issues.
Others are less used, but they are unique and can be used.
However, there is an issue with "GW" because of its ambiguity. No possible solution. | for dariel:
(enchanted) gargoyle - garg
Egg. Period. | black dragon - blackie
not sure about using that or seeing anyone do too :p | for ProZyk:
Yeah even I felt that but then I thought maybe thats what higher level players call it who use it regularly xD | All are true from #3 except black dragon - blackie
also,
when in english we say dont rush, it means don't rush =) | | Cba- i believe means cannot be asked. At least that's what a mod told me. | black dragon - blackie
i have never ever seen this before either...xp
would usually call them drags though... | | egg(enchanted gargoyle) is my favorite, thanks to ppt_dragon! |
