Is there any translation for the foreign languge parts in the 36 Lessons of Vivec? I know that most of the capitalizied words are other name for gods bit some I just cannot translate.

Sermon 7: GHARTOK PADHOMé

Sermon 9: HERMA-MORA-ALTADOON! AE ALTADOON!

Sermon 12: AE ALTADOON GHARTOK PADHOMé. GULGA MOR JIL HYAET AE HOOM.

Sermon 30: RKHT AI AE ALTADOON AI

The Imperial Library has a http://imperial-library.info/content/translation-dictionary.

You should be able to figure most of it out using that tool.

Thank you. Just to protocol the translations:

Sermon 7: GHARTOK PADHOMé - Hands of Padhome

Sermon 9: HERMA-MORA-ALTADOON! AE ALTADOON! - Hermaeus Mora's weapons! And weapons!

Sermon 12: AE ALTADOON GHARTOK PADHOMé. GULGA MOR JIL HYAET AE HOOM. - And weapons of the hands of Padhome. GULAG MOR JIL high and low.

I used the one about Hermaus Mora's weapons in a fan fic recently. I like to imagine it as a type of bodily violation involving tentacles.

This is a compound word, unlike the rest. Instead of "Herma Mora's weapons," might "ancestry," or "generations" be more precise? Nine's the sermon of their processional occupation, in Veloth.

just musing, here

Note that a direct translation of Ehlnofex is just about useless. "HERMA MORA ALTADOON!" doesn't mean "Hermaeu's Mora's weapons," it means something akin to " [arcane/forbidden] knowledge is a/my weapon." Adding "AE ALTADOON" to it makes it something like "arcane knowledge is the greatest weapon." Thats pulling from translations MK posted years back, I'll look up/post the document after breakfast.

Missing knowledge, I was close.

Still involves tentacles, since he don't have hands to write with.

Between yard work, party prep, and party, I ended up lying about the "after breakfast" thing. Here is the official translation:



I've not seen official translations of the others, but my notes had them down as:


Which in hindsight could also mean something like "the weapon is in the hands of chaos," or maybe "change is the weapon."


RKHT is short for Arkay.

Yeah, when something like "Herma-Mora" appears, it is usually not literally referring to the Daedric Prince himself; it means "knowledge" instead or something to that affect.
