Nitron Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Okay, this is getting locked soon as a mod gets here.
Darth Flatus Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Twi'lek? I thought they all spoke Huttese in Kotor. In kotor2 the languages werent as interesting - except for quarrenspeak which sounds like vomiting
RitterOne Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 hmm... Interesting... Somebody ought to write a book about this... like those with Star Trek... - Think somebody made a dictionary with klingon...
Laozi Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Its all based on Haitian People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
Yst Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Heh. This isn't a board that sees a lot of novel thread ideas. But to this thread, I give a

GhostofAnakin Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Fiki mooko dankne. ..no thats Selkathish. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How can you even tell?

Odinson Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Come to think of it, why does the Toydarian (the guy with wings) sound like a character from the Sopranos?

The language just sounded like someone making squishing sounds or talking with a mouthful of mashed potatoes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, the selkatish language consists of 99.9% utter and unintelligible nonsense. The sentence I posted above is the only real form of communication they possess. It translates roughly to "Your hoovercraft is full of eels".

RitterOne Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 So basicly this Thread is about a lot of people writing alot of random letters claiming that it actually means something... Well... I smashed my keyboard up once in a state of rage... the letter kombination then looked like some of what you have been writing...
Darth Kavar Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 I'd like to add sth: Twileks in K1 spoke almost the same lines as the Hutts and Elder Rakata. Rodians spoke similar lines to the primitive Rakata. Haven't played K2 so much yet so don't know any similarities in their lines.
FaramirK Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Does anyone know how they really make up all that alien speech? Is a real language's grammer copied with changed words? Or do they just make stuff up on the go? Anyone know?

DarthWeevil Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Didn't I hear somewhere that Jawa speak is based on Swahili? Just curious what VOOTEEDEE means. I think ti means 'Great shot kid , one in a million, now lets steal this droid and get out of here'
Darth Flatus Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 I swear in Kotor a lot of the lines were lifted from the Jabba's Palace scene in RotJ. Thats why it sounds more "authentic" to me. Also it is not a real language or based on anything its just funny sounding gibberish. I'm not sure if jawa lingo is swahili but it definitely was an african language that was sped upand played in reverse
Ohma Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 I always thought it was Utiini... (not that the correct spelling of gibberish really matters in the long run...) Or In loppatan sho'tav teev Utiini... (beyn kosbvat in-estvat mr'gibberish bardo no delom'kas tarfah-la...)
Darth Flatus Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 I always thought it was Utiini... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Me too...
