This is the poll to decide Komarr's motto. This poll will remain open 48 hours or until I feel like closing it. |

Why do you think Of fire and water, of air and earth sounds weird? |

It sounds fine in English. It sounds odd in Latin. You don't usually get a bunch of genitives by themselves not modifying anything -- it's just a strange-looking phrase. It's not wrong, per se, but to me, it looks like the kind of thing you get when someone uses a dictionary to translate word for word without actually knowing the language. |

I like "ad futura clariora", but I'm not sure futura is a noun, at least not that way. It would need an accusative ending in any case. |

I believe it's meant to be neuter plural substantive: towards future brighter things. |

The people have spoken! "Ad Futura Clariora" has the majority. This poll is now closed. |
