So, we all know that despite all the dialogue being written in modern day English, Eorzea uses its own unique vernacular and terminology. Due to differences in culture and history, many terms we use today in real life cannot be used in Eorzea. Because of this, I have set about creating Eorzean analogues to various real life terms, phrases, etc, and I've decided to set up this thread to share these with you, as well as hear what analogues you have coined for use in Eorzean speech.

Mighan Victory: Analogue for Phyrric Victory. Coined by Edda and I during one of our rps, a Mighan Victory refers to a victory in which very little was gained, and even more lost. The reference comes from how Ala Migho lost its dictatorship, only to lose any and all freedom to Garlemald in the process.
