This is what i dont understnad why do people call Revan Darth Malak because he is lord of the sith he should be Lord Revan & Bastila should be Darth Bastila.

Because on the films Darth Vadar is the aprentice of Lord Palpatine or whatever his name is?

& also on the game pepole dont call Malak Lord Malak its Darth Malak he used to be Darth malak when revan was Lord Revan.

 

What do you think?

Darth is shorthand for Dark Lord of the Sith. :)

 

Nope, it isn't. :)

 

'Darth' is simply an extra symbol of power a Sith Lord has. That various non-Dark Lords, such as Darth Wyyrlok, Talon, Nihl, Bandon, Sion, and all the rest were able to have it makes that impossible.

 

To get back on topic, since Malak was both a Sith Lord and Darth, people could accurately address him by both titles.

 

Though some Sith have the status both titles provide and aren't called by them is likely because their names don't sound very good with those added. 'Lord Bastila' or 'Darth Bastila' doesn't sound very good, for instance. :)

Then she needs monikers!

 

I also read somewhere, that the word "Darth" is some spoiled version of the Rakatan word "Daritha", what means "Emperor"

 

That's not good enough. Where have you read it?

Touche. :)

 

Wookieepedia had an article about it, but they made some points about how that might not be possible. On instance is how Andeddu had 'Darth' in front of his name, and was alive over a century before the Great Hyperspace War.

@ Ctrl_alt_del: I read this in the German Star Wars- Magazine.

 

Well, that's the problem when a name becomes a title and is suddenly supposed to be much older...
