Talk:Terminan

Terminan or Terminian?
Is it Terminan or Terminian? Either way, I propose a redirect from either 'Terminian' to the Terminan page, or 'Terminan' to the 'Terminian' page, if it's renamed. Ancblue52 20:43, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I always thought it was Terminian too, but that's for everyone else to decide. Was it ever mentioned in the game? (haven't played in a while, so I'm not to sure) 22:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty sure it wasn't mentioned in the game, but I will go through a text dump to see. Ancblue52 22:49, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

I just went through, and there is no mention of either word in the game. Ancblue52 22:53, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * The accepted community standard is Terminan. 12:56, December 18, 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree that it is Terminan (I'll always use Terminian though, just a habit). Termina is a similar name to America, being an "i" followed by a consonant and an "a". The term for a citizen of America is American, not Americanian. I believe Ando maybe able to have an explanation, he's good with grammar and spelling.

All right, that's fine; however, I have seen many people spell it 'Terminian'. I think there should be a redirect, since a lot of users might type that into the search bar. Ancblue52 16:39, 18 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree, that would be a good idea; why don't you go ahead and create one? 16:50, 18 December 2008 (UTC)


 * All right. I just wanted to check with everyone else, since I wasn't sure of the commonly-accepted name. Looks like Markol already made a redirect page. Ancblue52 17:02, 18 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I see you all got this done without me (sorry! Thursdays and all that D:), but yeah, Terminan is what I've always used. There's really no example to go off of here: the only countries I can think of that end in "-[vowel]na" are Ghana and China, and the demonyms of those countries are Ghanaian and Chinese, respectively! So I'd say that this is really 100% up to the fans in this case, and the most popular choice I've seen is Terminan, so I say we stick with that. 04:11, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Both sound right, and I have always used Terminana myself. However, I have seen an inordinate amount of 'Terminian' around, so I thought I would check and at least redirect. Ancblue52 04:17, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

The flying F-word??
Terminan and Terminian are barely differing words, both fanon btw, that mean the same thing. What this article is currently saying, that "Terminan" is anyone living in Termina and "Terminian" the word for a "Terminan Hylian" is... well, I'd love to know where that comes from. I'd also appreciate this wiki to use this topic to make a firm stance on what we do with the whole "Hylian vs Termin(ian)" debate, race vs land of origin. IfIHaveTo 17:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
