rachelmanija Sep. 14th, 2007 01:38 pm)Since I have been parted from my laptop and must post from a cafe without my library, I need some help!
1. Someone had a post ages ago analyzing the kanji meanings of the names of all the characters in Bleach and theirphallic symbols zanpaku-to. Link, please?
2. Can someone create vaguely plausible names for two characters whose kanji could be read as "vegetable of the ocean" and "related to the/in the family of the sea bream (tai)/any other fish?" They could use non-standard kanji or non-standard readings, ie, one actual character's name is Uryuu (rain dragon) which is clearly unusual, as Ichigo initially reads it as "Ametatsu." Could be surname and given name or just surname.
3. Tite Kubo had some cool-sounding chapter title like "Rosa Rubicundor" which supposedly meant "Ruby Rose" in Latin, or something like that. I am not getting the same result when I use an online Latin translator. Can someone provide cool-sounding Latin that means, more or less, the following phrases (cool-sounding is more important than absolute accuracy):
Night of Fire, Day of the Dead
Red as Ruby, Dark as Night
Festival's End
Festival of Spirits

(fwiw: "Rosa rubicundior, lilio candidior" = "Redder than the rose, whiter than the lily" ... apparently it's from the Carmina Burana)

Rosa rubicundior, lilio candidior, omnibus formosior, semper in te glorior - Redder than the rose, whiter than the lilies, fairer than everything, I will always glory in thee

Aaand...that more than exhausts my knowledge of Latin.
