it's "LE"............ BUT seeing the "Mercenaires" part put WITH that otehr part.....

2020-01-16 18:15:40 UTC  

Would it just be a confused fuck of bad translation?

2020-01-16 18:16:23 UTC  

so, if they are supposed to be put together, that changes some things

2020-01-16 18:17:15 UTC  

if they are supposed to be put together, it would be "Vive les sacrés mercenaires!"

2020-01-16 18:18:04 UTC  

You're a native English speaker, right?

2020-01-16 18:19:39 UTC  

I doubt "Hail the war" sounds all that right.... right?

2020-01-16 18:22:07 UTC  

.... but yeah, in the French translation screenshot, there are some other errors. "Mort" and "Guerre" being capitalised.
The capital letters point to Death (as in the personification) and something like THE war (instead of The Great War, here it's just the War).

"Vive les sacrés mercenaires!"
that's the correct translation for the last bit

2020-01-16 18:26:35 UTC  

...... now, for what it means in English.......
you're in for a ride.
it can either mean that the mercenaries are holy (but it's organised in a poetic fashion)
or it can mean "Hail the damned mercenaries" but in a friendly way. (like "Hail them gosh darned mercenaries")

2020-01-16 18:34:35 UTC  

Hulkoff's work is such that saying "Long live war" and "Long live death" is not out of place

2020-01-16 18:35:08 UTC  

And yeah "Hail the war" doesnt sound right, although "Long live the war" as retarded as a phrase that would be to say, is gramatically correct

2020-01-16 18:45:50 UTC  

But "long live" is not the same as "vive".
It would have to be "Longue vie"

2020-01-16 18:46:50 UTC  

maybe he changed the words, to get a better flow...

2020-01-16 18:47:33 UTC  

Probably

2020-01-16 18:47:57 UTC  

In English the French phrase "Vive la" is just used generically to mean "Long live"

2020-01-16 18:48:07 UTC  

Take for example the coldplay song "Viva la vida"

2020-01-16 18:48:09 UTC  

Long live life

2020-01-16 18:50:50 UTC  

sure.

2020-01-17 06:09:42 UTC  

The Cure is amazing in concert

2020-01-17 06:09:57 UTC  

And totally underrated song

2020-01-17 06:19:20 UTC  

Yes

2020-01-18 04:26:24 UTC  

nice

a little more "dance with the dead" than the last album

2020-01-20 00:36:49 UTC  

I feel like a consoomer for liking this show but fuck fam the soundtrack makes me fucking moist https://youtu.be/WjfuLMqSkmw

2020-01-20 15:39:26 UTC  
2020-01-20 15:49:52 UTC  

yep

2020-01-20 15:49:59 UTC  

what you need my man

2020-01-20 15:50:14 UTC  

This verse here:

2020-01-20 15:50:15 UTC  

Här ute härskar snö och kyla
Och den som finner stigen hit
Kommer endast att slutligen finna

2020-01-20 15:50:26 UTC  

That last line has me baffled

2020-01-20 15:51:19 UTC  

Kommer stands for coomer obviously

out here the snow and cold rules
and the one who finds the path here
is only going to finally find

2020-01-20 15:51:44 UTC  

is there more context to the last part?

2020-01-20 15:51:48 UTC  

it's a bit odd i agree
