Galois ?
« on: 27 Feb 2013, 14:21 »
I genuinely ask for that I have seen recently some players using the term "Galois" for Gallente. Is that a new PF addition, or maybe a new player trend ? I am curious to hear what happened behind this.

I have to admit that the term sounds quite cheesy for a french native and makes me directly think of "Gaulois" (Gauls).

First I hear of it. I agree, it sounds cheesy.

I recall having seen this once or twice, but I can't recall where or by who. I generally just call the Gallentean language 'gallentean'

I mostly heard it on the Summit and in one discussion on the IGS for now. I was merely curious.
