Asuran script[edit]
Hi, just wanted to say that you've been doing a great job translating those asura script pieces. Also, you wouldn't have any idea what File:Rata Terminal AScript.jpg translates to, would you? Sunlion (talk) 09:13, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! It seems to be "please stand by", which I'll add to the page. I had a look around Rata Novus, and the rest of the screens all seem to feature copies of the same 4 lines followed by a lot of numbers; armor plating, heartrate, brain activity, and the occasional weapon.
- If you have anything else you'd like translated (in any of the different Tyrian scripts), give me a shout, and I'd be more than happy to help! (...and I hope you do get this notified of my reply; I'm rather clueless on Wiki communication and etiquette!) Sathgirus (talk) 07:38, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- Nice work, and sorry for not noticing! How about File:Demonstration Banner AScript.jpg? Sunlion (talk) 21:23, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
- Aha, got it! Thanks very much, that one was a fun challenge. The posters all use a weird shift cipher instead of using the typical 1:1 mapping that appears in all the other asuran texts I've seen. I put my findings in the notes section of the image!
- I've updated the most relevant pages to the item with translations, but there's probably more to do. And maybe this unusual use of the asuran "alphabet" would be worth noting on the Asuran script page? Sathgirus (talk) 12:19, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Yeah, could use a mention. Mind taking a look at File:Map of Lake Doric.jpg? Sunlion (talk) 08:30, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
