Mando Mondays!

Welcome, ner vode! This is where I will post all things related to my people and our culture!

01/04/21 "Vod" or "Vode". It means Brother or Sister depending on context! "Vode" is the plural pronunciation.

01/11/2021 The Mandalorian phrase "Aliit Ori'shya Tal'din" [Ah-leet-or-eesh-yah-tal-deen] means "Family is more than blood."

01/18/21 Mando word is, Ba'gedet'ye![BAH-geh-DET-yeh]You're welcome! (Like the German use of bitte.)

01/25/21

Mando phrase is "Ib'tuur jatne tuur ash'ad kyr'amur" [EEB- toor JAHT-nay toor ASH-ahd-KEE-ram-oor] "Today is a good day for someone else to die "

02/08/21 Mando fact is: "Translated simply to Mandalorian, Mando'a is the term for the language spoken by the members of this fascinating race. Over the course of millennia, the Mandalorians have fought in countless wars, learning countless languages, strategies, and technologies. But the language of their homeworld has never significantly changed, as one of the key aspects of being Mandalorian is understanding Mando'a. Largely expanded by the Star Wars: Republic Commando novels, written by Karen Travis, the language is an essential aspect of their culture. Mando'ad draar digu: a Mandalorian never forgets."

02/15/21Mando fact for today about  Mandalore the Fist. "While the Mandalorians are often recognized as a nomadic species with no real leader or government, this wasn’t always the case (though it is a pattern that has been repeated time and time again). Mandalore the first is recognized as the first official leader of the Mandalorians."

02/18/21 Bonus Mando Fact: "The Mandalorians—known in Mando'a as the Mando'ade, or "Children of Mandalore"—were a nomadic group of clan-based people consisting of members from multiple species, all bound by a common culture. "

Thanks for sharing these! I look forward Monday! My favourite one is "Today is a good day for someone else to die"!

2/22/21 Today I'll share with you the Mandalorian Code of Honor! That code is as follows:

Strength is life, for the strong have the right to rule.

Honor is life, for with no honor one may as well be dead.

Loyalty is life, for without one's clan one has no purpose.

Death is life, one should die as they have lived.

This is the way.

3/1/21 Today's Mando fact is actually about the early concept of mandalorians! "In production for The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Ralph McQuarrie and Joe Johnston designed armor intended to be worn by soldiers described as super-commandos from the Mandalore system, armed with weapons built into white suits and known for battling the Jedi. Initially, the soldiers were called Super Troopers and were intended to look alike."

I have the collectable for this :)

They are pretty cool looking.

Very nice, vod. I have yet to get my hands on one!
