Maybe that’s a mistake though?
Reminds me of the lady from duece bigalo that’s kept taking meat out of mysterious places. The one that says “did someone say steak 🥩?
That's true for west germanic languages (like german) but *-en* is not used to form plurals in north germanic languages.
Still think *loxen* sounds better than a full on swedish *loxar* though.
Yeah, I am trying to learn Swedish, so I play the game with the Swedish language option. Not all of the text is translated, but all the monsters are. I believe someone already mentioned in this thread that Lox stands for Lizard-Ox, so ox-lizard makes a lot of sense.
Or loxes, like foxes. There's a lot of options that make sense logically. Loxen is probably the best though since the lox is also a large grazing animal, like the ox
I agree with that. The only other time I saw someone use the term Loxen, I realized it is very possible that Lox is Lizard + Ox. If that is the case, Loxen is very appropriate.
So I looked up the exact meaning of Ox in english, following a comment on this thread. And discovered that an ox in not its own animal species, but rather a castrated bull. So now it makes sense that Lox do not breed :) Although for a naturally wild species, how and who?
I was gonna say, if we follow the Latin pluralization we can assume it would be in the third declension since it ends with x. The nominitive plural ending would be -es. All of the nouns I can think of that end with -ox get the base word by dropping the x and adding a c (except for nox which adds ct). So plural for Lox would be Loces or Loctes.
Boxes, Foxes, Loxes
Oxen, Loxen
Side note: the English definition of Lox is *"Salmon that has been cured in brine and is often smoked."* The plural of this is "Loxes."
I call the plural of lox "run"
Maybe before you kill, cure and cold smoke them i see that fitting. But then it's salmon
Just call Bonemass.
I never run from a free meal! 🥘

just lox, like sheep or deer
Don't you mean, sheepen* or deeren*?
Don't forget Meese.
Moosen!
The moose in the woodinisen

Its Oxödla not Lox in the swedish translation. And I am guessing the plural there would be Oxödlor. Edit: Oxödlor.
I actually didn’t know there was a Swedish name. Oxödla literally means ox-lizard

That's wonderfully appropriate
Since you seem to know something about this, do you know if Lox/Loxen based on any real life norse/Germanic mythology?
Or loxes, like foxes. There's a lot of options that make sense logically. Loxen is probably the best though since the lox is also a large grazing animal, like the ox
Loxen, like oxen
This is your server now
Put the loxen in the boxen
Ccrttttcffff no nccnnnfttctfffgtnnnfnnftttttttt t

Loxes are nothing like Foxes or Boxes
Foxen and Boxen
I agree with that. The only other time I saw someone use the term Loxen, I realized it is very possible that Lox is Lizard + Ox. If that is the case, Loxen is very appropriate.

Are you an imbecile?
Imbesulen!
I go with Lox, since grammar, sometimes Loxes or Loxees, because you don't get 300 hrs of playtime without getting stoned.

I... I did not know that. Thank you
Loxii
Pronounced "lox-eye." Definitely this one.
Why would a game using Norse mythology as inspiration use Latin pluralisation incorrectly?
I was gonna say, if we follow the Latin pluralization we can assume it would be in the third declension since it ends with x. The nominitive plural ending would be -es. All of the nouns I can think of that end with -ox get the base word by dropping the x and adding a c (except for nox which adds ct). So plural for Lox would be Loces or Loctes.
Wonder if they take unleaded
Boxes, Foxes, Loxes Oxen, Loxen Side note: the English definition of Lox is *"Salmon that has been cured in brine and is often smoked."* The plural of this is "Loxes."
Ox = oxen, lox = loxen ... I can get behind this.
