Classical Latin voicecommands for VoiceMod - for RealMod
Format: english = alternative1 - alternative2 - alternative3 x# (# : total number of sounds)
Group: Plural, imperative & vocative, patrician speech (general/captain of the army)
Unit: Singular, imperative & vocative, patrician speech (general/captain of the army)
Individual: "Plebeian" speech - 'H' not pronounced (common soldier)
* = word repeated, but possible change of grammar
? = denotes strong uncertainty about the previous word, look for better substitute if possible
x = denotes an exception where the command is being spoken by a low-level unit-commander instead of the general
Some commands will be completely ignored since some commands have been removed from the RealMod, such as the Screeching Women.
The language must be as realistic as possible - this is not prose nor poetry, so find words to express the inherent brutality of war (without exaggerating).
Forms of addressing troops: Often ”mīlitēs” was used, if general is older he sometimes said ”iuvenēs”. Sometimes they just said ”Rōmānī” and the very emotive (and Caesar-favored) ”commilitonēs” (co-soldiers, which is maybe why he appealed so much to lower classes, he wasn’t placing himself above them when he’d talk to them!). Sometimes ”fortissimī virī” (most brave men) and even ”manipularēs meī”. ”veterēs” is also an option. ”Quiritēs” was very patriotic, but not as common.
