OK, so I solved the problem of assigning a function to a procedural variable (the problem was that I was stupid). But now I can't call it. When I attempt to do so, it gives me:

ghistory.pas(260,19) Error: Incompatible types: got "tLanguage.<procedure variable type of function:AnsiString;Register>" expected "AnsiString"

Is there something I have to add to the call to make it work? Some code follows.

(in tLanguage method)
       MaleName := @SaxonMale;
       FemaleName := @SaxonFemale;
       ClanName := @SaxonFamily;
       PlaceName := @SaxonPlace;
(in main code)
         Language := tLanguage.Create;
         a := Language.ClanName;

Yes, you need to add braces.
?
?a := Language.ClanName();?
?
Vojt?ch?
