Well, if I rightly understand the Latin (and no guarantee of that having never studied the tongue) I believe the Carrajena would read: In tres margas Gaja esti seperadu. Idavi in al juna ils Beudjis vevid, in al aurra ils Avidanis, ed in al tercha, fi la limba Cheuta loved, nos Gajas jid numinimus. Todus uls limbas, instidudis ed ledjis djal fistas uls diverzus suns. Gaul is seperated into three marks. Thus, in the one live the Belgians, in the other the Aquitanians, and in the third, which speaks the Celtic language, we name it Gaul. All the languages, institutes and laws of these are diverse and sundry. Well, that's my go at it. Adam
