It’s Star Wars Day! May the 4th be with all of ya!
May the Fourth be with everyone!
Facebook’s having a “Change your status to a favorite Star Wars quote” event. I think it’s awesome. Mine’s from the book Starfighters of Adumar by Aaron Allston:
Wedge: “Never mind what I just said. Let’s just shoot Wes.”
Tycho: “What’s our strategy?”
Hobbie: “I thought we’d just all draw and fire. But I could count down to zero and then we could draw and fire.”
YUB YUB, COMMANDER!!!
Like your quote a lot.
And May the Fourth be with you all as well!
Et cum Yoda tuo.
{Pedantic ranting follows — Please ignore :o}
Ugh. Church Latin.
Always amazing how they could use the language for centuries and still get it wrong.
“Cum” does take the ablative, but “tuo” is the ablative of the possessive adjective. “Te” would be the ablative of the pronoun. So the proper construction would be:
“Et Yoda cum te”
or “Et Yoda tecum”
or “Yodaque tecum” (my personal favorite :p)
Oh dear, are we going to have to spend all night painting the correct form on a wall now?
Another classic Star Wars quote: “I DON’T LIKE SAND.”
And a better one:
“Are you an angel? Aw, I’m just kidding. That’s the worst line I’ve ever used. Hope some poor kid doesn’t start using it.” -Atton Rand, KotOR II
Always amazing that people are willing to criticize those who kept the language alive
Lol! Is that a real line? I’ve only played part 1.
May the 4th be with you !!
