Angry birds in Latin
#1
Just debating the proper translation of "piggy die!!! " from Angry Birds.

"Necate porcum!" or something else?

I suspect "piggy" would be porculus, but being direct address, it should probably be porcule. Die can be different things, morire is simply "die". You could get by with Porcule mori, I reckon. There might be better verbs for shades of meaning, I don't really know. The pig won't know the difference, eh?
