Ancient Roman Board-game

[edit]

To whomever it may concern,

I came across this board-game after looking into the board-game fidchell (aka gwyddbwyll) online.

Could anybody look for the sense of the Ancient Roman board-game?

@Equinox If you can, you may help and investigate. --Apisite (talk) 12:00, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Apisite: Thank you for asking me. But I searched for "game of rota" and "played rota" and I found nothing useful (just some fantasy novels). I think that may be an interesting modern game, but not very well known, and probably not a real ancient game at all. Equinox 10:19, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox: When it comes to written Chinese, why shouldn't the term 輪棋 be used?
(Besides, I made up some written Chinese terms for fun.) --Apisite (talk) 21:33, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
I like you a lot. But unfortunately WT:CFI applies to you the same as everybody. I've had the pleasure of seeing your work on that Anglish wiki. God knows what you're going to do with Chinese. Equinox 13:29, 8 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox: I built up a list of written Chinese coinages over at the Chinese edition of Wiktionary. --Apisite (talk) 10:16, 14 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
