[Ironfalcon]

I have a debat going on with a mate off mine.. and we simple cant agree on this matter..

So I simply need to know.. is it called...

Min guild ( en guild)

or

Mit guild ( et guild)

Min guild

*waits for someone to say danes, yet again, discriminate those that aren't danes*

 

[Eeben]

min guild vil jeg nok sige

 

[tookha]

I'd go for "mit guild", but I'm norwegian. -.-

thus why your wrong

min guild

 

[spook]

does the word "guild" even exist in the Danish language? Shouldn't it be translated with something different?

That sounds stupid, so we use guild... Which is the reason they're having the discussion (there's no "right" way to put an article on the word.)

well.. we do. if im not mistaking, a guild is a Klan in danish.. and klan, would be placed with a Min klan.. ( en klan)

That's clan.

Guild would be translated to "lav". Like a håndværkerlav or something along the lines of that.

 

[Ormorof]

en guild/ min guild

mit guild just sounds odd if you say it

 

[Ironfalcon]

That's clan.

well look up the word guild in an english dictionary.. and compare the word guild, and clan to each other.. they are not far away from each other..

and Lav is with an Et...

It still is the direct translation, no matter how close the two words are

And I don't really think it matter, what the article of lav is. The article is not art-specific, but word-specific.

Like you can say "et hus" yet "en bopæl".
