As part of a hopefully communal project where everything to do with actual Na'vi sound files and videos can be posted in one easy to access place.

This will be a completely free to use resource, so please, feel free to put anything related to Avatar up there.

Unfortunately due to something to do with the database it doesn't like the apostrophe

Did you try to escape it? (\') or ('') depending on the database.

Yea, it just won't have it.

Gotta love SQL injection... We can thank all those ayskxawng for making ' a bad character

What? There absolutely should be wrong with the character \' after all, ' DROP * FROM TABLE `SMF`--

MySQL Connection Failure.

Yes, ' can be a nasty little bugger if the necessary checks aren't put in place. The whole idea of escaping is to tell the database to treat your ' as a regular character and not as the end of your input string. Most of the large open source projects are mature enough to have functions that will either strip out or escape the special control characters. From what neosis666 is saying, that site just strips all (') out entirely. SMF for instance, escapes them so typing things like '); DROP * FROM TABLE `SMF`; into a text field won't cause nasty things to happen.

While yes its annoying, im sure we can live with it

I do need your help though, locating those videos with definate Na'vi language used in it. so if people could upload them to my site, or give me links so I can do it, that would be great.

SQL pseudo code in Na'vi

ftxey skxawng ftu orak'ole tsengpe ftang ke tengfya '

select moron from oracle where glottal_stop != '''';

Seze · December 23, 2009, 05:14:39 PM

I can see it now, a new programming language written in Na'vi...

Payoang · December 23, 2009, 05:52:15 PM

... Yes. So much yes.

How long till Na'vi reached Lolcat level? ai dun no butt tchanses ov dis lookin gud!

omängum fra'uti · December 24, 2009, 03:05:50 AM

I was about to try and translate "I can has ..." to Na'vi, when I realized two things...

1. We don't have a word for "have" at the moment.
2. It would be really hard to make something so short grammatically incorrect, or ordered wrong, which are both the attributes that make "I can has cheeseburger?" into lol-speak.

Interesting. Do we want to Break Na'vi to allow LOL cats or 1337?

There is no tewte. There is, however, tewti, which occurs in the comments for Frommer's guest blog post on Language Log. Frommer translates it "wow."

A downloads section has been added to the site, just click the link in the Navbar or directly
http://www.talknavi.com/page.php?page=11

Important things will be posted here as and when I have time to compile full sets of things.

Detaas · December 25, 2009, 04:16:40 PM

It would be usefull to write the quotes themselfs behind the audios.
PS: sorry for my very bad English)) I speak better in Na'vi
