    motto

    Hi Shane,

    Neither do I.

    It just seems so strange to have an English motto for a Scottish Highland Family, one that does not translate directly into Gaelic. I believe most of the clan probably spoke Gaelic in the time of Malcolm, 3rd Chief of the MacLeods 1296 - 1370, when this motto was supposedly was adopted.
    Another translation I got was "Save Perseverance" All very strange to me.
