Dear friends, It is with gratefulness and humility that I share with you all that I received my Writ for the Order of the Laurel and will sit Vigil on 10/30...
Congrats, Sister,welcome to the Order! My standard soundbyte of very questionable vigil advice is, "The wreath can be either a horseshoe or a toilet seat,...
Greetings from Sofya to Lidia! ... Congratulations! ... years pondering it as I've been revising the Russian alternate titles list. ... One problem is that the...
Congratulations! =) The Latin "magistra"; is usually translated as "mistress";, but it also means "teacher". Is there a Croatian title that is used by teachers...

Lidia, It is very hard to find the right kind of word that describes a female "master". The one you chose "Majstorica" is actually someone who builds things....
Lidia, my heartiest congratulations to you! I just wish we were going to be down there on the 30th to attend your vigil. My own instinctive reply to your...

What about Russian word Masteritsa (Mah|steh|ree'|tsah)? it's the female version of Master (Mah'|stehr) like a craftsman. I think it can be appropriate ...
My husband went by remeshrenik for craftsman versus master since it was confusing having two master ivans around the kingdom. I'm not sure what the feminine...
Then in that case, as Lada pointed out. For a craftsman or craftswoman, go with Majstorica. That is a person who builds, or has earned an experience, or...

Many of these are very similar to designs I've found in pre-Christian Estonian silver and pewter work. Fascinating :D Now I feel far more justified in using...
