This came from that (ehem) 'other' forum. It seemed very "me" somehow, so here it is. I think this is a *spoiler* about crewman Jackson, though. ;•) [url=http://i734.photobucket.com/albums/ww344/Dugerstein/memes/samuel.jpg][img]http://i734.photobucket.com/albums/ww344/Dugerstein/memes/samuel.jpg[/img][/url] Please pardon the "colorful metaphor" in the midst of the hilarity.

I know, right? How anyone can pronounce what's on that wall is beyond me. Not to mention that some ancient languages may have been deep-throated (whatever term is used); only living ancient language today is one based on phlegm (Hebrew). Nice pic, by the way. (:

Hehe... Nice. But...What's this "other forum" people mention every now and then? *Gasp* Are they our rivals?

@Pren I wouldn't know about the other (ehem) forum, [i]per se.[/i] I just find their stuff randomly. Blame Google and tumblr...

@CDave — "Gutteral" may be the attribute you're searching for. Yes. Gutteral. Veeeery veeeeery guttural. LOL! :•)

"Deep throated" ...Bahahaha.... I'm LOLing as i type... BAHAHA... *Ahem*... Ummm... How can you assume it's hard to pronounce. I mean...That's a pretty arbitrary assumption, don't you think?

sukkal: Yeah... Forgot about that. The message from the derelict. Well. I mean..It's either A: Distorted, and isn't coming out properly OR B: They communicate by different means. Making it impossible for someone to pronounce their vocalizations. Rather, they don't have voices such as ours. Only possible explainations. Either that, or it's encoded audio.

@abordoli — I can't take the credit, but I'm glad you liked it. I'm just the "sukkal". ;•) @Pren — LMAO! :•D That's not the message from the Derelict! That's me! Perhaps I should be honored...?? LMAO again! It's a line in Sumerian. The text engine here won't display it correctly with all of the diacritics, but it's roughly: [i][b]irtiiquu elish shamaamii dulla ushazbiluu Igigii[/b][/i] Idle were those of heaven above, they had the Igigu toil under the corvée. The Igigu were "lesser gods" in the mythology. It's hard to say if they map to the Engineers or not. Anyway, I just did this as a test to see if I could. LOL some more.

sukkal: LOL? Compare the transmission from the derelict, to your recording... I never knew you could speak Engineeri? WTF!? Damn, man, where'd you take classes? [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_VnoLyrfdDerelict transmission..[/url] At the 00:15 mark Are you hiding something? Were you featured in Alien, just not credited?

@HAL 9k — Thanks for encouraging me in your own special way. ;•) Now you know why I was "searching for answers." Is that a 'typo' or a dialectical difference? LOL! @RickK — I take no credit, but this is one of the funniest things I've seen come out of "Promethian humor" so far. @Pren — Yes. Defs. LOL!! I've heard [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_VnoLyrfdY]the transmission[/url], of course. But, at best this is "inspired". I was like 11 (at best) when that scene was filmed. But, check back with me this time next year. ;•) I'm something of a xenolin[u]guologist[/u], but completely self-schooled; I assure you. If you know where they're teaching classes, sign me up! ;•)

In [i]my own[/i] way?? What's that supposed to mean? I've got feelings too, you know..? LOL!

@HAL 9k — Your [i]very thoughtful[/i] way. That's all I meant. I VALIDATE your feelings, HAL. I will cherish your friendship forever. [Prays he won't turn off the life support.]
