Greek word for my name is

• #1

Need to know how to give a formal introduction for a goddess in rōmaji. She will be saying, ‘Greetings. My name is Amaterasu Omikami.’ Thank you for your help!

• #2

Mina-no-mono, yooku-kike.
Warekosowa, amaterasu oomikami naruzo.

Just need to confirm.

Would

‘Mina-no-mono, yooku-kike. Warekosowa, Amaterasu Omikami naruzo.’

equate to the provided txt? We notice that there are a few words that have double lettering. Is that required? Thank you.

• #3

naruzo caught my attention.
I suppose the verb naru is used as a copula here?
Zo is probably the sentence ending particle zo.

• #4

Hi.
«Equation» was not guaranteed.

Just to make sure, what is «Greeting»?
In Japan’s culture, God(s) usually don’t say «hello» or «Nice to meet you» or some other greetings at the top of his/her speech to human being.
In English culture, what does he/she say as «greeting»?

Mina-no-mono, yo(o)ku-kike
=Everyone (you all ), listen carefully.
=Attention.

This is equivalent for the word-which-comes-at-the- top-of-her-speech.

I don’t think Gods say «hello» to us (human).

In this situation she is talking to other deities.

Can someone please give us the full utterance? A formal introduction is required.

This sounds nice. This is funny. I like this.

>naruzo caught my attention.
This comment is also interestiong.

Qimaster, what is the context?
(Because it is unusual that God/Goddess gives greetings in the mythes I know. Some context is required to be responded.)

She graciously introduces herself to her liberators. Originally we included a greeting, but in light of the recent aforementioned knowledge we have opted to require only ‘My name is.’

Just to confirm, would «

Warekosowa, Amaterasu Omikami naruzo.

» suffice? Is the comma necessary?

>would «Warekosowa, Amaterasu Omikami naruzo.» suffice?
yes.

>Is the comma necessary?
I think there is no problem without comma.

Translating «My name is Amaterasu Omikami» literally, it is
-Watashi no namae wa Amaterasu Omikami desu. (It sounds gracious.)
-Wagana wa Amaterasu Omikami nari. (,which sounds unfriendly or haughty, but sounds like god/goddess.)
-A ga na wa

Other translation may be possible, which is for «I am Amaterasu Omikami.»
-watashi wa Amaterasu Omikami desu.
-watakushi Amaterasu Omikami to moushimasuru. (,which sounds sweet, only suitable for cartoon and anime works.)
etc.

We will go with, «

Watashi no namae wa Amaterasu Omikami desu

.» That was our original translation, and we really need to emphasize that she is happy to be freed. Is the phrasing accurate?

Moderator Note:
The question about «she was sealed away» has been moved here.

If you want to make it like that, you have to add a word of thanks before that.

Greeks have a very impressive culture, and most Greeks are proud of it. But it was not until the 15th century that Greeks started giving importance to a surname. Most ancient Greek surnames are influenced by family names and parents’ names. Most Greek last names are inherited from the paternal side i.e. father’s first name or the family name. Their last names can easily identify someone of Greek ancestry. Most unique greek last names and surnames come with a lot of meaning to them. Most names have an origin and trace back to time.

115 Greek Surnames or Last Names or Family Names With Meanings

Greek names are either of Latin, Hebrew or Greek origin. Some names are original Greek words and some have been modified. The modified ones imply the origin of the name. Popular Greek last names come with suffixes. These suffixes give the history or the origin of the place to where the family belongs. Some Greek surnames have prefixes too. These prefixes reveal about the identity of the person or their origin. Greek surnames are therefore interesting as they speak volumes about the tradition and ancestry of the person. A surname beginning with “Kara” reveals that the person is from the East and in Turkish “kara” means black. “Konto” the prefix means short and “papa” means a person who is a descendant of priests.

• Introduction 2.1
• #2.1 Scriptures for ὄνομα ‘onoma’ meaning ‘name» Strong’s 3686

Introduction 2.1

This is a thorough Greek word study about the Greek word ὄνομα, ‘onoma’
meaning ‘name’ (Strong’s 3686). It gives every verse where the word ‘onoma’ appears in the New Testament.
To obtain a true understanding of this word these scriptures need to be meditated on and notes made of their meaning in different contexts. This requires putting
scriptures together where they seem to have a similar meaning, and then meditating even more. The truth will be revealed by the Holy Spirit, who has been given to
guide us into all truth (John 16:13). Wherever this word onoma appears in the Greek, the translation of it is highlighted with
yellow. In Greek the suffixes and some prepositions are not added to the basic word to enhance the
meaning, except for case endings, so the associated suffix or preposition has not been included in highlighted text. Every blessing be to those who seek the truth
of God’s word.
