Kerbal Dialogue..?

[Spacetraindriver]

I know Kerbals speak backwards Spanish. The thing is I don't speak Spanish nor do I have it as one of my classes.  I was just wondering if anyone would reverse and translate the dialogue in the little animated videos on the KSP channel? Just so we could know what they say...

 

Though I don't think Gene actually Kerbish. He just kinda makes noises that sounds like he's talking while pinching his non-existent nose.

I suspect that, for the most part, it's pretty simple language, like, "Aw, c'mon!"

Some of it is actual reversed NASA footage, and so not really backwards Spanish.

One tactic I've taken in a couple of my own videos, is to use Google Translate to convert English to Spanish, tweak as necessary to get the meaning right, feed that to a Text-To-Speech program with the appropriate dialectical options, record the results, reverse it, and increase the speed slightly. It's labor-intensive but can actually create pretty nice results, if you're up for it.

The most common strategy to create intelligible kerbish is to simply use some sped-up english. Giving them high-pitched voices make them even funnier, IMHO
