Here is a small glossary of the "Atysian" role-playing game that you can use instead of some common terms.

A
- Avatar
- it is just a homin(e), and its «anima» is the player behind its character, could be its conscience, its soul...
B
- Bird
- There are no birds on atys, but Izams, Igaras,Yber are Avians, the "Javings" are Javans...
- Blood
- Purists are fighting each other on this point... is there blood or not in the bodies of homins? Homins can be considered to have both blood and sap, but the word "sap" may be preferred as a general rule (but there is no agreement on the question, there is very little doubt about the humanoid origin of the Atysian races...).
C
- Chatlog
- Trykers invented a device, the Tyllidolh, to record conversations.
- Chivalry, Chevalerie
- By definition, these words cannot exist, since there are no horses in the Atys Fauna. See also #Horse, Horseman.
- computer
- See PC.
D
- Disconnections (untimely disconnections)
- Tepsen's disease.
- Dog
- (animal) : There are no dogs but Gingos, Torbaks...
E
F
- Fame
- (NOP in English)
G
- God
- Delicate concept, rather swear "By Jena", or "by Ma-Duk", "By the Great Mentor, the Great Dragon, the Great Glouglou.
H
- Horse, Horseman
- Your horses will not be powerful horses, but Mektoubs or Gubanis, animals used both to transport goods and to move around. Who rides a Mektoub (a Gubani) is therefore a Mektoubier (a Gubanier).
- HRP
- Voir IRL,
- Humanity
- No sovery dear, not humanity but "hominity"! Nuance....
- Human
- No known humans on Atys. We're talking about homins..
I
- IG
- To be "In Game" is to be on the Bark.
- IRL
- if being IG is to have your feet firmly on the Bark, as opposed to the IRL that you could also writeIRreaL, it is to have your head outside. Having your head in the air, being in the moon, in the clouds? So, IRL, couldn't it be beyond canopy?
J
K
L
- Language IRL (Allemand, Anglais, Espagnol...)
- Dialecte (atysien). En taki zoraï, on peut dire "taki shizu"
- Level
- Aaargh! quoi de moins RP que de parler de "level"... pourquoi ne pas utiliser "compétence" et parler de "cercles" pour définir son niveau. Dans le style "Mes compétences atteignent le septième cercle de compétence en magie". Ok c'est plus long que "je suis lvl 70", mais tellement plus beau... Utilisez aussi les titres gagnés comme "Maître Foreur des Forêts", etc.
- Lune
- On évitera de parler de lune, mais il serait plutôt question d'"astre de la nuit". Il y a plusieurs objets célestes autour d'Atys dont trois qui pourraient se faire appeler "Lune". Voir Astronomie.
M
- Man
- Neither woman nor man, but homine and homin.
- Masque
- Les Zoraï portent un masque, mais il est lié génétiquement au visage du Zoraï, donc, il n'est pas question de dire: "tu dois être laide sous ton masque" puisque ce masque est le visage...
- Métal / Fer...
- Point de métal ! Comme la pierre (ou le fer), cela n'existe pas sur Atys (en bref, tout y est vivant ou l'a été !). Inutile de vouloir "croiser le fer" donc... Seule la Karavan possède du métal, mais il ne provient pas d'Atys...
- Mob
- Prédateur, Proie, Kitin, insecte... ou mieux, le nom (varinx, kincher etc.)
N
- Noblesse
- Pas de Noblesse pour les homins fraîchement de retour d'Exode. Pour être en conformité avec le BG voulu par les développeurs, vous ne devez pas vous attribuer de titres de noblesse. Faite de votre histoire une légende, un vieux papier retrouvé dans l'un de vos greniers, enrobez le tout de mystère et vous ne serez peut-être pas hors du BG de Ryzom...
O
P
- PC
- Les Matis ont reçu le module d'interface Karavan avec Atys. Heureusement, tout le monde peut s'en servir sur l'Écorce.
- Pet
- It seems that they are Zigs: yubo, gubanis or grippos.
- Photograph
- The word "luciogram" (lucio in short) is often used to define a screenshot. See also Luciography
- Poisson
- N'est pas un nom proscrit, mais on devrait préférer utiliser des noms comme : Sagass, Prakker, Hachtaha, Baldusa, Clap-clap...
Q
R
- Rat
- (animal) : There are no rats but Ragusses...
- (insult) : Generic vocable. No need to blame these "Fyros rats", it doesn't mean anything. Prefer ragusses, bodocs or caprynis. Valid for "pig" or other empathies....
- RP
- Useless to say it as soon as we are on the Bark.
S
- Sand
- There is no sand on Atys since there is no stone... but on the other hand, sawdust and ashes. Nevertheless, it seems that in the Lakes, it is indeed sand (the result of the crushing of the shells and corals).
- Screenshot
- See Luciography, Lucio, Luciogram
- Ser/Serae
- A typical Matis mark of deep respect invented (we will say found) by the guild Hesperian. Ser is a bit like Sir or Monsignor, but with a female equivalent (Serae). It is used as such. For example: "Ser Karouko, I respectfully greet you on behalf of Serae Aliciae Drosera who engages you in the work you have undertaken with such ardour ...".
- Stone
- No stones on Atys (at least on the surface), everything is made of solidified, crystallized, frozen or coagulated sap, at your convenience. But walls or stone statues.... none!
- Study of Kitins' origin
- Paleokitinology.
- Sun
- One should avoid talking about sunlight, but rather about "star of the day" or "luminaire". See Astronomy.
T
- Tell
- Voilà bien un canal qui pose soucis: RP or not RP? En fait le tell pourrait être selon le cas un chuchottement inaudible pour les autres (RP) ou tout simplement et généralement une conversation privée (HRP).
- Terre
- Nous ne sommes pas sur Terre, mes bons homins ! Préférez le terme "Ecorce" à celui de terre. Ex:"Sur toute l'Ecorce", et non "Sur toute la Terre"... on peut aussi dire "Par Tout Atys", mais c'est un vilain jeu de mot... Comme la Terre a été évoquée par la Karavan, on peut en parler comme de la première planète créée par Jena, mais pour rendre la chose plus RP (l'orthographe correcte est inconnue des Homins), on déforme l'orthographe, par exemple : Thaire, Terr, etc... (À noter que l'on trouve souvent dans les textes les termes Nouvelles Terres, Anciennes Terres ou Terres d'Antan, ainsi que Terres Lointaines) mais c'est dans le sens "pays, territoire" .
U
V
W
- Wiki
- EncyclopAtys, The Great Library, which pages are Ambers or Amber Cubes.
- Woman
- Neither woman nor man, but homine and homin.
- Woren Siloy
- Contraction of Woha (Zoraï), ren pyr (fyros), Deles Silam (Matis) ad Lordoy (Tryker), an abbreviation used by pacifists to address a multiracial meeting.
- WWW
- (World Wide Web) why not use the word "Web instead of WWW to stay closer to the Atysians'language?
X
- XP
- Why not talk about strength or experience? "Oh, that varinx was really very strong" or "I gained a lot of experience by killing him!"
