Interesting fact: when Scales says "You see, I must.." the actual words he says are "Kxuk aj nx0 A mijk", meaning "That is why I must...". Interesting. And in the video where Krystal is explaining her staff to Fox, two lines of dialogue aren't even spoken.
:D I have been and am currently researching and figuring out the spoken and proper pronunciation of the language. Let me know if you're interested in what I find to help with your translator ^^ I'd love to help get it updated.
As much as I love this game, I feel it would've been better if it wasn't tied to Star Fox. It should have been its own game, with General Scales as the villain. What I wouldn't give to see the original version of this game remade for modern times.
I just discovered something. This guy may not be dead. He may have only been knocked out and the Sharpclaw turned on him and captured him. He is probably still in a cell somewhere on Sauria enraged that his own troops betrayed him. If this is the case he might break out and become a primary antagonist in the series. Since Andross is either dead or a disembodied spirit Scales now has no affiliates and will probably take over Andross' status as the villain.
the Saurian Language reminds me of the Celtic and North Germanic languages, like Welsh or Swedish...i just realized Swedish mixes English words, so Saurian would be kind of like Swedish.
The Saurian language does sound like a foreign language, yeah, but I read somewhere that it's actually just a substitution cipher of the English language, like the Al Bhed language in Final Fantasy X.
the instruction manual had a translation key...the dino language is a cryptogram. "the" is "kao"-that's all i can remember. i still remember how embarrased i was when i thought they were speaking japanese!
Using your Saurian/English translator as reference; I'm guessing "kao" (meaning "the") is from a typo? By the translator, "the" translated into Saurian is "kxo" which I would myself pronounce that as "c'k-soh".. yet they say "kao", which translates into English as "tie"..
I always laughed when they'd be all "sdfurenbuiher GENERAL SCALES etc".
Right after he says "You dare to challenge me?" and before he says "No one can defeat General Scales." I noticed that he says something in there that the people who made the game never translated for us... ._. I'm going by ear hear (and im probably wrong x3), but it sounds like he said "too ... not o..." and I couldn't figure out those other words... What do you think he's sayin'?
I think it's a track placement error :P because it sounds like that last thing he said. "Kxaj aj dek eloh" = This is not over.. and it sounds the exact same.
Track placement error much? 8D x3
I suppose that would explain why they didn't translate it.
@krystalarchive I know it's been two years, but I've ran it through the translator: The untranslated line is "kxaj aj dek eloh" - translated: "this is not over".
I don't know why the writers chose the "KX" to be so oddly pronounced (kxo (the) is pronounced as KAY-OH, but here (kxaj (this)) it's said as "KEY-AJ") - then again, how else could you pronounce it?
@xgaaraxkazekagex Yeah, when the general says "You see, I must control this planet whit fear" he's really saying something like: "true, is what i most sure teaches treat not with fear"
Then, between "You dare to hallenge me?" and "No one can defeat General Scales" he says: "This is not over" (Kxaj aj dek eloh)
im not realy a starfox fan, but i was bored and buyed the game and i have to say. Scales is one of the coolest Evil Characters ive ever seen in a Nintendo game.
in real life the villians like the puppet masters of bush,have found its wiser to have thier puppet(like bush)rule directly wile they r behind the scenes,how can you defeat an enemy you cannot see?how can you escape your prison if you think you are free?hey meybe thatle become a proverb!
Interesting fact: when Scales says "You see, I must.." the actual words he says are "Kxuk aj nx0 A mijk", meaning "That is why I must...". Interesting. And in the video where Krystal is explaining her staff to Fox, two lines of dialogue aren't even spoken.

There's actually a guide how to speak Dino in this game in the instruction booklet near the back.
For example:
Xoo, wioj. Zijk kojkadw eik kxo Dino Talk nakx oeu. Udt General Scales aj jkacc olac. :)
Hey, guys. Just testing out the Dino Talk with you. And General Scales is still evil. :)
And just so you guys know, "the" in Dino is pronounced kxo, with a silent x.
keeltoll3456 1 year ago
And now I'll supply you guys with the translations.
English: A B C D E F G H I J
Dino.....: U R S T O V W X A Z
English: K L M N O P Q R S T
Dino.....: B C M D E F G H J K
English: U V W X Y Z
Dino.....: .I..L N P O Q
The vowels in English are re-arranged, and the letter M stays the same. Also, Y does not exist in Dino, it is replaced with an O.
Pronouns stay in English, always. For instance, if I said "Go, Krystal!" it would be "We, Krystal!" (lol)
Hope this helps!

Kxaj aj dek eloh (This is not over)
