Is this guard as in mall rent-a-cop security guard, a military-police force such as the "Guardia Civil" (the Spanish national police force), a purely military force such as the Life Guards (UK calvary), or a lifeguard at the pool? Or does it cover all of them?

[Xombie]

I would say it just means guard. Any guard. You could probably specify further, but this is just the most generic form.

[SimonFarrelly]

And in Ireland a "Guard" is a police officer. From the Irish "garda".

[Eyalthegreat]

must be a story there

[LuboKol]

At first, I thought that «gardisto» was a word for «gardener»

[Renardo_11]

That would be ĝardenisto.

[pekerappo]

I imagine he is a talented color guard.

[tacit-blue]

wait, so what's the difference between talenta and lerta?

[zubiz]

As I understand it, lerta is skilled, ability acquired by knowledge and experience and talenta is simply talent, i.e a natural gift by birth.

[salivanto]

Mi kredas ke oni povas evoluigi la naturan talenton, sed gxenrale vi pravas.

[phili56491]

So when "talenta patro" means "talented father". How would I express "talent father"? (I know its semantically nonsense)
