I'll get the ball rolling:
'Kruez' is French for Cross. The Fanelia sword has roots in Latin. "Fanal" is the Latin word meaning 'light house' or 'light stick'. 'ia' is the suffix for establishing it as a verb. "Fanel~ia" beam literally means 'light-giving' beam. Something along those lines..... ~~~ "Wheels within wheels..."

Just discovered this randomly on Babelfish.
Lacrima is Italian for "Tear". When trying to figure out which "tear", wikipedia told me it was also Latin for tear (crying tear by the way). ~~~ Писатель всегда будет в оппозиции к политике, пока сама политика будет в оппозиции к культуре.
