But you sons of whores are not worthy of fighting with the gladius yet .
但你们这些杂种现在还不配用这把剑来打仗。
Btw way , the roman gladius ( gladius mean short word in latin ) is a copy of the iberian sword used by the spanish and by carthage .
顺便说一下,罗马短剑是仿西班牙人和迦太基人使用的伊比利亚剑而成的。
I can understand that with a more cavalry centred mobile force the now more numerous mounted troops would need access to more longer swords to use from horseback but we constantly remark that one of the principle attributes of the gladius was its ability to be used efficiently at close quarters .
