Krreyktan = Time Lord?

[C'tri Atan'itan]

as the topic suggests, can Krreyktan (Time Leader) be used as a way of saying Time Lord?

Aahaahaa!  That's hysterical.

It follows the pattern of other compounds like this, so that seems fine if you want one word for it.  Krrä Eyktan ("leader/lord of time") would also work, I suppose.

Brilliant!

Hmm, I wonder what "allons-y" would be...

[wm.annis]

It occurs to me that the word tsulfätu might make sense here, instead of eyktan.  Do we think "lord" in "Time Lord" is a title of political power, or does it merely mean time lords have control over time?

[Muzer]

I think it's the latter.

* Muzer imagines the Doctor sitting in the House of Lords

"Makto ko"?

[Muzer]

Yes, but it doesn't have the same feel as allons-y

Though makto ko ma Alonso still sounds good

Arguably both; they have no inherent power to change time, only natural abilities in terms of understanding/ observation. (their ability to control it comes via technology). Is a difficult question xD

I think Ektan is more appropriate than tsulfätu
