I just want to correct and write in the original Greek language the Greek names ΑΝΤΙΟΧΟΣ\n                       ΕΥΜΕΝΗΣ\n                       ΕΦΕΣΟΣ\n                       ΑΣΚΛΗΠΙΟΣ\n                        ΠΕΡΓΑΜΟΣ

Depends on how you pronounce the name.\n\nI see the English version of the name may be pronounced four different ways:\n\n(a)  a-LIS-a \n(b)  a-LIS-ya\n(c)  a-LISH-a \n(d)  a-LEE-sha\n\nhttp://www.behindthename.com/php/search.php?nmd=n&terms=alicia&submit=Go\n\nMy bet is it's one of the last two (the most common, I believe).  So:\n\nIf you pronounce it "a-LEE-sha" (long i), it rhymes with:\n Phoenicia, paramecia\n\nIf you say "a-LISH-a " (short i), it rhymes with \nMorticia, milita, comitia, adventitia\n\nFor a-LIS-a:\nmantissa, abscissa, crissa, vibrissa\n\nBeyond that you might need to be a bit more informal.  For instance  \nfor (b)."I'll miss ya" or "..kiss ya"

J- Julian (another name for their calendar)\nL- length\nU-unit\nV- volume (Egyptians did math too)\nX and Z are tough, but they did use heiroglyphics that resembled these letters, so you might be able to find words for them also.\nGood luck.

Well, I would have said it was Latin, but there are no 'y's to speak of in the language, or none in the older languague. 'sanguinoru' and 'crushuru' aren't words that I can find anywhere, and 'sh' sounds aren't generally anywhere but proper names and such. I would have to say to check in newer Latin (because you know the Pope needs Latin words for things in modern times) for those words. Also, when you type this into the translation program, I'd try putting an 's' on crushuru and sanguinoru. ( 'u' endings are uncommon sorta.) \n\n'Excesivus' = excessive, 'no' could = I swim or float, 'ex'= out , 'suro'= closest thing I could find is a native of Syria, 'toto'= total/whole/complete and 'maximus'= greatest/biggest. Hope it helped and good luck!

gypsies are either "Roma" or "Sinti". And Roma means "men"´. So ONE gypsy man is called "Rom".

This will normally not be translated.\nIt is perfectly possible to maintain the Latin alphabet for writing names.

Several have pointed out the basic origins of our alphabet, ultimately in the early Semitic alphabets of the 2nd millennium BC, a form of which Phoenician traders of the 1st millennium BC spread around the Mediterranean (esp. to the Greeks,  and from one group of Greeks to the Etruscans, and from them to the Romans -- hence the Latin alphabet we now use a form of).\n\nAs for the ORDER of these alphabets, some clarification is needed.\n\nBelow I will explain where your friend's suggestion may come from (I'm assuming he misread a lowercase for a capital and meant the letter "L").    But here's the big picture:\n\n1) Our very term "alphabet" is based on a Greek version which began with the letters "alpha" and "beta".  These words were nonsense in Greek, borrowed from the Phoenician names "aleph" and "beth" (meaning "ox" and "house" --words that began with these respective letters).   That is, the essential order of our alphabet (with modifications for letters added later by the Greeks and Romans), is an order used by the Phoenicians, as well as by others in their region who spoke related languages --this included speakers of Hebrew .\n\n2) Specific evidence for THIS order among the Semitic groups?  Of the texts we have in Phoenician,  I do not know of any of these that are specifically "abecedary" texts (that is, lists of the letters in a standardized a-b-c type order).    But the evidence for this order in first millennium BC Hebrew is quite strong in the biblical texts, esp. in their "acrostic poems", in which successive verses or sets of verses begin with the letters in the 'order of the alphabet'.    The most famous example is Psalm 119 in which the eight verses of each stanza start with the same letter.   In fact, almost any English Bible you pick up will display the Hebrew characters and names above the stanzas of this psalm.\n\n3) Actually, the evidence for this order -- beginning with "aleph" -- goes back to about 1300 B.C., where it is found in a number of "abecedary texts" apparently written in scribal schools in the Syrian port city of Ugarit.  (The characters are in an alphabet adapted to be written in "cuneiform", but are still the same basic letters as the other alphabetic texts we know.)    There is some suggestion that the order reflects the propsed Egyptian roots of the whole Semitic alphabet, but no evidence of this has been found. (And at least one writer has proposed that the Ugartic alphabet was organized as a mnenomic device, and has attempted to reconstruct a poem based on the word-names of the letters.)\n\n4) This is at least the DOMINANT order.  But there is another group of languages -- including writings in "Old South Arabiab" and later in "Ge`ez" (also called "Classical Ethiopic") that used a different order, that starts with the equivalent of "h".   This "South Semitic" order is first found in South Arabian inscriptions inthe mid-1st millennium BC...  or so we long thought.    It turns out that two texts found at Ugarit --one found back in 1933, but not appreciated; another found much later-- have since the 1990s been recognized as reflecting the South Semitic order.   With just two of them, and the peculiarities and uncertainties about these specific texts, it is difficult to know what to make of them.   There are some, however, who argue that this order may be just as old as the standard 'aleph-bet' order (and have looked forevidence in the lists of Egyptian symbols ['glyphs'] thought to be behind them).\n\n**5)  As for the "L" first suggestion.  Many have suggested that the 22-letter Phoenician and Hebrew alphabet was typically broken into TWO pieces of eleven letters each.   Looking at the Hebrew alphabet (perhaps at Psalm 119) you see that the first three letters of the seco

Practically all constalations, period, are named after roman or greek legends, like orion the hunter, son of posiden, and centuarius, the centuar (Or it sounds like centuar), or after what they look like, like the snake and dragon.
