GALLICS

Gauls (n. pl.) - the citizens of Gallia; Gallia (n. sg.) - the House; Gallic (adj.) - something that comes from Gallia.

Gauls!

However, Libertonians, Rheinlanders, Kusarians and Bretonians are not called Americans, Germans, Japanese or British.

The house isn't called Gaul. It's called Gallia, so it makes perfect grammatical sense to use Gallian as the impersonal pronoun. After all, Breton is actually a place in France.

Galleanoes!


RE: Gallians - Antonio - 11-28-2012

They should be Gauls, but nobody calls them that.


RE: Gallians - Shomy - 11-28-2012

It's quite confusing.I think Boda is right.But Coin also has a point here.
But since this is a game, and it's creator said 'Gallians' I think that it should be 'GALLIANS'.
BTW:third choice need correction (GALLIAS)


RE: Gallians - Miaou - 11-28-2012

Gallic or Gauls.

Igiss doesn't know french, and as such made a typo. Not like there wasn't thousands of typos throughout Disco's ingame stuff and story due to him not being a native speaker of English.

We got a winner over here.

Gaul is the correct way to refer to a person who lives in Gallia. Also, Igiss isn't a native speaker of English. For more examples of his fine Inglis, feel free to browse... well, just about any infocard in Gallia. I wouldn't take him as a shining paragon of correct sentence syntax.
