Thank you. I knew about 3drt.com and thegamecreators.com (I just didn't recognize the zombies. wink ), but not blattsalat.com. Thanks again!

It is a name.

Here is what Babel Fish gives me:

German to Engilsh

groß = largely

hausen = live

großhausen = largelive

Engilsh to German

great = groß

live = phasen

largely = groß

largelive = largelive

This is why I asked you guys. I know a lot of you are German. So, I was just interested in what you would say/come up with.

Thank you

haus is a house. "-hausen" is an ending that's often used for towns' names. I can't think of an equivalent in english, but something similar would be "Beverly Hills", "Christchurch", "Bridgeport" or maybe even the "ton"-ending that you have (Torrington), though I don't know where the latter comes from (does it derive from "town"?).
While all of these are named according to specialties about the place (church, hills, port), in german, "hause" is more like an ending that means "a collection of houses" and, I think, it's rather old german.
A better translation may also be something like in "Rushville", the "ville" ending.
As an example, "Entenhausen" is, in German, the name of the place that Donald Duck lives in, where "Enten" means "ducks", so it is the "Duckville" or "Duckton".

Correct me if I'm wrong anywhere here...

Now, the "Groß" simply means "large" (ß is pronounced just like an s), so it's something like "Largeton" or "Bigville".
"Groet" means asolutely nothing to me, although it reminds me of both "Kröte" (=toad) and "Goethe" (= Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, probably one of the two most famous German poets, 1749-1832, from the "storm and stress" epoch (or do you say "era"?) and later "classical" era.)

Does that answer your question? laugh

Sorry for off topic there. But I thought, Guido Weserwelle speaks german to non-german people, so why shouldn't I? grin

Thank you, Germanunkol!

Yes, you are correct. "ton" is short for town and "ville" is short for village. I guess people are lazy (Or maybe they just think it sounds better?) and don't want to say "Barber Town" so the just combine the two, "Barberton". I hear the Japanese are really notorious for doing this. (They shorten/combine a lot of words. (Playstation/Playsta)) The reason why I asked is that "Groethausen" or "Großhausen" was supposedly the last name of my Mom's side of the family before they changed it to Greathouse which is what I was told was the translation. Anyway, my apologies to alpha_strike, I don't want to railroad your thread here. Thanks again, Germanunkol!

hausen can basically be translated with ville, yhea... so it basically means bigville, greatville or largeville...

edit: duckburgh would be your version of our entenhausen so you can always say largeburgh XD

@sPIKe: Thank you! I really appreciate it.

@alpha_strike: Man, those 1st person weapon models are so kick @$$! And they're only $20!!! I just wish I had found them before you. wink I wouldn't feel right using them in my project. But, I may contact blattsalat some time in the future to create some custom models for me.

P l e a s e u s e them if you want! Look at zapans zombies. Call of Death and Call of doom use nearly the same zombs. Zapan took the gcreator guns, I took them from blattsalat. There are no rules ... just the result is important.
