[quote][b][u]UPDATE: 15TH AUGUST 2015
I have updated the video with NEW translations.
The final [i]two[/i] clips show what the Silent Fang called us.
Will update the dictionary below in due course.[/u][/b][/quote]
[quote]See below for my interpretation of a Fallen Dictionary of sorts.[/quote]
I first posted this over on [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/36nk08/spoiler_how_gives_us_our_first_chance_to/]Reddit[/url], but I figured I'd share my results here!
[b]Spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn't yet ventured into the story missions. [u]You've been warned![/u][/b]
Spent a good few hours figuring out the phonetics for Skolas' dialogue, and I believe I've translated fairly accurately all of Skolas' words; they might not be perfect, but it's a start! But thanks to Variks, we can now begin to roughly translate Fallen dialogue. I believe he gives us just enough variation on defined words to even begin to interpret generic Fallen mob dialogue, given context clues and the like.
I'm excited to begin to phonetically lay out sentences and match them up to the translations already provided. Perhaps we can discover even more lore as a result, straight from the horse's mouth.

So good to see you make a thread back on the forums. Welcome back :-)

What did the fang call us? I think I missed that part of the video.

Nice reference Soon™

Damn man. Awesome job. Truly. You've uncovered a boatload of work Bungie did behind the scenes. It gives me much more hope that the future of this game will be bright indeed. There will be a lot of dialogue to translate over the next 9 years.
