quick translation

All I really need is a quick translation of the word "Lieutenant"

May 14, 2018 		A lieutenant is a subordinate in rank and function to Captain or higher or "Warlord".

My ideas:

Aamsethur / Thur-aam would represent "Servant of Overlord"
Aamsekonahrik / Konahrik-aam would represent "Servant of Warlord"

Thursetum, Konahriksetum would represent "under-Warlord/overlord"


Those specify the lieutenant's position.

There is no direct translation for this word in canon Dovahzul. You could use thur "overlord" or drog "master," depending on the context. Click on the following words to go to their Dictionary pages for more information on them.

Thur - Overlord/King/Overlordship 

Drog - Lord

 

There is no Legacy word that directly translates to "Lieutenant," but we could try to find an appropriate synonym for it based on the context. If you post the full context for this translation, we can help you much more.
