Yo Germans!

Tis I! Here on a mission of translation.

I'd like to convert
Doppels�ldner

to

"ELEVEN"s�ldner

Or whatever would be the logical equivalent. If this makes sense to you, then please help

Elffachs�ldner?

Maybe you can post the whole sentence?

I think it would be easier for us to help you then.

There is NO sentence.

I am under the impression that Doppels�ldner refers to a soldier who received double pay (also had a special sword). So what I would like is using the same format the name of a soldier who receives "11 times pay".

Eventually I might construct a 3 word sentence that would read:

The 11timespaysoldier doppelg�nger

or

The 11timespaysoldier 11g�nger

Something like that

well, it doesn't sound good but... it seems like it's the right word... at least as far as i understand it.

Alright thanks for everyone's help.

I guess the problem is that languages have double, triple, quadruple and after that things don't sound natural

doch, nat�rlich, aber nicht in einer speziellen form wie "doppelt" (anstatt zweifach)

im englischen gibt's ja auch "three times" aber man sagt "triple" - und die wahl hat man im deutschen meines wissens nach nicht
