(I was forgetting what the word for 'son' was in Ercunian/Ercunic, I thought it was sun or son and derived from the same root that hwatting's word comes from, but it's actually a different root)

Mach márd díme és bráthír díme.

My mother's son is my brother.

No. They are hard and they are nuts. Thus, rock-nut.

...Azonedis westes otetagotahai vezeia, híéú.
...Easily distinguished from walnuts, also.

«Otetagota» lí mefíú aléwonité, telméú.
I don't know the etymology of 'walnut', though.

I see, m'lady. Gaforde is a word of old and means "reddish-brown colored".

Gec is Tegolleu na Gafordes tirter dam galdanç madh gent is castadhe na donrise dombaulança. Aissí, aissí.
I am the Knight of Chestnuts because such a noble fruit is the epitome of riotous merriment. Of course, of course.
