 Picking Up the Pieces

 

Translations:

This page has the alien language of the villagers that SG-1 encounters in "Picking Up the Pieces". Along with the ‘original’ language is a phonetic explanation of how the word/words/phrase sound(s), as well as the English translation. The list is in order of appearance in the story. (I found the 'translator' program that I utilized for this story on a gaming site years ago.  The author/creator offered it freely to anyone who was interested in using it...I always knew it would come in handy one day! *grin*)

Fru yna oui? Vnus frana ryja oui lusa?

(Pronounced: "FE-raoo aenah ohooee? FUnoo-see fe-raahnah raae-jaeah ohooee luoo-seeah?")

[Who are you? From where have you come?]

[Find the old man!]

[Isn’t that so, Gaillard? I’m just the old man who knows how to heal your wounds, when to plant your crops. The outsider without whom you’d never survive!]

[If you are wise, you will listen to the words of the golden-haired one. She has the gift of sight, and she has foreseen that Isabella is about to be hurt in a fall. You should send your daughter home for the remainder of the day, keep her safe.]
