I will indeed activate your account.
Thank you for the offer, we use Universal Arbitrations for consultation at this time, however. If I should ever need French/English translations or the odd graphic here or there, I will certainly be in contact.

Any chance of extensive Spanish-English translation?

My knowledge of Spanish is very limited, so no, and I have a sneaking suspicion someone is asking because she wants her homework done!
Nate - If you take a look, my business is actually quite different from U.A.I., and I would never have offered my services if I knew I would be in direct competition with U.A.I. U.A.I. offers legal advice and mediation; I do not. What I offer in terms of legal stuff is legal representation, i.e., you get sued and go to court, I go as your lawyer. Additionally, the treaty work that he does is completely different from my diplomatic assistance service. In any event, I look forward to doing business in Natopia in whatever capacity I am needed in.

Hey, I'll have you know that I snuck into having an A with a 89.512% in my AP Spanish 5 class.

You are so lucky that a.) Your school is still using the old number-letter grade translation. At our school, they anything below a 93 is a B. b.) Your school rounds .5s that are between two letter grades up. We once had a 92.5 in Math, which at Our school is smack dab in the middle of a B+ and an A-, and We were given a B+ despite the teacher's insistence that We were a wonderful student. That kept Us off the High Honor Roll. We have never had an issue, though, with anything less than an A+ in French (our foreign language course) because Our teacher absolutely adores us.

The first person plural in what?

Post by Nathan on Nov 22, 2005 21:29:51 GMT -6
When addressing oneself.

Ah, yes. That is a monarchic custom. It is customary for a monarch to refer to themself in the first person plural in legal documents such as Letters Patent, Royal Proclamations, etc. Some monarchs, including Ourself, choose to do that when not writing documents. An easy way to tell if We are referring to Ourself or an entire group of people is if the W in We is capitalized, we're talking about Ourself.

There is a Royal Decree in Natopia prohibiting all Natopian monarchs from addressing themselves in the first person plural. It was among the first i made when i first crowned myself king... which some might say makes me the Antichrist... as Napoloen crowned himself and i heard him called the "first antichrist" somewhere because he was not crowned by a church official. (hitler was the second antichrist, Bush is the third (http://www.bushisantichrist.com/)
But i seriously digress...

Ohhhhh... so he was only talking about himself... I didn't catch that until you pointed it out Nate.
Well, last year in IB Chemistry, my teacher wouldn't round up my 89.8 or something like that. Whatever it was, it was purely roundable. The dude sucked. Who else could go from an 8% to an 89.something%? Stupid first B+...
I think I sound bitter...
Hahaha.

I should hope so...especially considering that Ronen sent me an email asking for UAI to Advise them!!
It's also been customary for monarchs to marry cousins, murder millions of their own people, oppress the poor, start wars for profit, and kill people of differing religious beliefs.
At this stage in the game, I would like to point out that Alexander of Hanover does this, and he is considered a complete joke for that very reason. Nobody can take you seriously when it appears that you dont even take you seriously.
