Short Axe

In and of itself, the word "short" holds no common meaning with a distinct association with the form of the Short Axe. However, in the context of the Fire Emblem series it matches the Short Spear, an equivalent mid-level ranged lance.

Spanish

• Antiespadas
• Hacha corta

• Anti-swords. The weapon is known by this name in the Spanish version of Path of Radiance due to an error, as this is actually the Spanish name of the Swordreaver. The error was probably caused by the axe's file name in that game, "SWORDBASTER", which is the Japanese name of the Swordreaver.
• Short axe. The weapon is known by this correct name from Radiant Dawn onward. Abbreviated to H. corta in Radiant Dawn for space reasons.

French

Hache courte

Short axe. Abbreviated to Hac. courte in Path of Radiance for space reasons.

German

Kurzaxt

Italian

Ascia leggera

Lightweight axe. Abbreviated to As. leggera in Path of Radiance for space reasons.
