But she had an idea, "Okay, well, the Latin word for iron is ferrus, but there is no Latin word for robot because well Ancient Rome had no robots. But we could say giant, which is gigas. So you could say Gigantis Ferrum."
Kurumi blushed. Perhaps robot hadn't been the right word, but it was what had popped into her mind at the time. "Right...no robots in Ancient Rome," she laughed nervously. "
Gignatis Ferrum," she repeated. "
That sounds quite nice actually. So, perhaps this could be used on metal objects to turn them into human like things?" She had to stop herself before she said robot. "
Then charm it to move with Locomotor?" That didn't sound like such a bad idea.
"
Oh, um, Selina, I don't think the Latin is right on this," she said handing her parchment to the red head.
