Sure, let's go through the terms you mentioned and provide the correct definitions:
1. l'écu - shield: Correct! L'écu is French for shield.
2. la couronne - crown: Correct! La couronne means crown.
3. Les supports - supports: Correct! Les supports refer to the supporters, which are typically animals or other figures placed on either side of the shield.
4. devises - motto: Devises means motto. It is a phrase or expression that represents the ideals or values of the entity associated with the coat of arms.
5. le cimier et le tortil - crest and wreath: Le cimier refers to the crest, which is a decorative element that sits on top of the helmet. Le tortil, also known as le vol (fly), is the twisted cord wrapped around the base of the crest.
6. le casque et les mantelets - helmet and mantling: Le casque means helmet. Les mantelets refer to the mantling, which is the flowing fabric or drapery that hangs down from the helmet and surrounds the shield.
7. la terrasse - base: In the context of coats of arms, la terrasse refers to the base or ground on which the shield is placed.
For the Coat of Arms of Canada, you have correctly identified the crown, shield, and supporters. To complete the labeling, you would have the following:
- Le cimier (crest) (optional)
- Le tortil (wreath)
- Le casque (helmet) (optional)
- Les mantelets (mantling) (optional)
- Le devises (motto)
- La terrasse (base)
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
Sure, let's go through each term:
1. L'écu - shield: Correct! L'écu means "shield" in French. It is the central part of a coat of arms where the main design is displayed.
2. La couronne - crown: Correct! La couronne means "crown" in French. In a coat of arms, the crown is usually positioned at the top.
3. Les supports - supporters: Correct! Les supports refer to the two animals or figures placed on either side of the shield in a coat of arms. They are commonly used to showcase power, allegiance, or heritage.
4. Devise - motto: Devise means "motto" in French. The motto is a brief phrase or slogan usually placed below the shield in a coat of arms, representing the values, beliefs, or aspirations of the entity it represents.
5. Le cimier et le tortil - crest and wreath: Le cimier represents the "crest" and le tortil is the "wreath" in French. The crest is a decorative piece that sits atop the helmet in a coat of arms, often depicting an animal, plant, or other symbol. The wreath is a twisted band of fabric or floral motif that is draped over the helm or crest connecting it to the mantling.
6. Le casque et les mantelets - helmet and mantling: In a coat of arms, le casque represents the "helmet" in French. It is usually placed above the shield and is a symbol of strength and protection. Les mantelets refer to the "mantling" in French, which are decorative draperies or cloths that hang from the helmet and frame the shield.
7. La terrasse - base or ground: La terrasse means "base" or "ground" in French. In a coat of arms, la terrasse refers to the portion at the bottom, usually symbolizing the earthly or territorial connection of the entity or family represented.
For the specific Coat of Arms of Canada, you have correctly identified the crown, shield, and supporters, but are missing the motto, crest, wreath, helmet, mantling, and base. The motto and crest are typically included in most national coats of arms. However, the inclusion of a wreath, helmet, mantling, and base may vary depending on the specific design.
I hope this helps you correctly label the parts of the Coat of Arms of Canada! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
