Apollyon Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Hi guys,Squad has posted a ton of videos, and we have been told that Kerbal speech is Spanish played in reverse. So........has anyone translated what they are saying in all these videos????I would, but I don't speak Spanish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortoise Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Idk, but I think you can just slow-motion a video and sit there and type each word they say. Then reverse the words and google translate them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollyon Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 That would still require spelling them correctly in Spanish, and Google translate kinda sucks when you need it most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketPilot573 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I think you would have to play each word in reverse, and know Spanish to understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollyon Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 We can decode SSTV easter eggs on Duna, but not translate backwards Spanish into English! That's kinda what I thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geschosskopf Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Actually, all the Kerbals I know are quite easy to understand, at least when they're not screaming incoherently. When they do say things, it's along the lines of what Xactar's video captions have them saying, only using a LOT of R-rated words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketPilot573 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Someone needs to make a transcript for the videos... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frafor Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) Is amazing how clear is the voice of the kerbals when reversing the audio from some of the videos.For example in the Kerbin Cup video (if i heard right, and from the end of the video to the start) you can hear: "y arrancamos con alma, vida y corazon, les llevaremos las cronicas de esta primera mitad, pelotas y afuera y tiempo para saludar a Mario Castillejos en la cancha"In english (might be wrong, my english is not perfect) that means "and off we go with soul, life and heart, we will bring you the chronicles of this first half, balls away and time to salute Mario Castillejos in the field"The first thing said in the video say "go for undocking", in english reversed.

Lilleman Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Something just hit me: Shouldn't Kerbals have their own alphabet? Are they even able to read and understand what's written on their rocket's parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lheim Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 They do write english on their sticky notes and rocket parts. They just pronounce it like backwards spanish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I though the each word was individually pronounced backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
