Can someone please translate this old sword inscription....is it German or ?????

Thank you,

True until death. Roland.

Thanks you very much Roland...

loyalty until death

first word is treu like the meaning on ss dagger blades treue.

now you need to give me the different meaning, if any, of true vs. loyal?
Roland.

true is more the meaning in german = wahrheit

tell me the true and dont be a liar.

if you say to me "true until death" it means to me = wahrheit bis zum tot (nice to )

problem is that true in englisch have more meanings but wahrheit and treu is in german different.

hope it helps and you can understoot what i mean with my bad englisch

I would translate "treu" with "loyal" or "faithful".

"Loyal till death" or "Faithful till death".

to be true to someone or something means all those things in english.

it has nothing to do with wahrheit in this case...that is my opinion and I stand by it
