Tell us about yourself! Where are you coming from, what languages do you speak, what do you do, how old are you, tell us a few words about your family, work etc. This is the job interview part.

Spoiler: Interpretation

None of you probably understood this little sentence in Estonian, as well as most of you probably have never seen nor heard about me the same way. It's because I don't post into the forums that often.  Mostly it's because I do not like to wait for replies and I usually find no point to add something to any of the threads, if someone has already said what I think. Maybe it's laziness, maybe fear, I don't know. I do enjoy chatting via Instant messengers though.

So who am I? Well, one calls me Erik and I'm 17 at the moment. I live in this tiny small country in the north, that's far away from the heart of Europe and that one calls Estonia. Sadly I happen to be the only one around here to really love Avatar. I go to school, and will graduate the next year. I plan to go to the university then and I might end up becoming a doctor.

I enjoy spending time with myself. I love to study new things, to learn new skills and above all I love to think about different topics. Some days, while sitting in the bus, I can sink into my thoughts so deep, that time would just run by, without me noticing.

Why are you here?

Spoiler

What brought you here to the Learn Na'vi forum in the first place? Did you fall in love with the language? With Pandora? With a character? Did someone invite you? Or did you stumble upon this site? Once here, why did you decide to stay? How much time do you spend here every day?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Well, it was...on the 2nd of January last year that one of my friends, who was also an avatar fan, somehow managed to make me promise, to learn the Na'vi language. Yeah, I had no intention to do it, none. While other Avatar fans looked up different Na'vi usernames for themselves, I simply didn't, because I never thought I would find the will and motivation to start learning a new language. But since I hate to break promises, then on the 3rd of January I started. First I studied according to the jMemorize list with ~450 words, which I found from the main page of learnnavi.org. It's weird, but back at that time, I had no idea there was this wonderful forum. I would have joined right away. It was later that I found it, and after lurking around I finally joined, because I wanted to send a few private messages to few people. So this all happened in late February.

Where do your alias and profile pic come from?

Spoiler

Do they have a special significance? Is you alias a translation of your real name, or just a bunch of random letters thrown together? Is that you on your profile pic?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Hehe, my alias, well, it was the year 2005, I believe, when my friend in school told me this expression: Kala kuival. It's in Estonian, and it sounded so funny. In English one would translate it as ,,Fish out of water", but if we use some direct translating it's ,,fish on dry". Since then, I started using it everywhere, though later on, another alias started dominating and KalaKuival fell back. When I joined my first Avatar related forum, I used KalaKuival, because I didn't want my real life friends to really find me. And so KalaKuival became only my Avatar alias.
The profile picture is not mine! I didn't make this lovely picture at all. I got it from deviantart.com and Tìngay mungeyu was kind enough to try na'vifying animals too, just for the fun of it. Thank you!

Srak nga tsun nìna'vi pivlltxe?

Spoiler

How well? Why did you start to learn it? What is your ultimate goal with the language? Do you have specific methods/tools you use in learning the language? How did your friends, family, or colleagues react to your interest in learning Na'vi? Have you told them at all? Have you converted any of them?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Yes, and I mostly owe my thanks to 2 people for it. One is my dear good friend that I mentioned above, who made me study the language. The second person I want to thank is Kemaweyan. He is my teacher and without him I couldn't write this all in Na'vi, as for this, I am sure.
I studied the language quite long, before I was able to actually start speaking it. This is due to me learning all the words there were before learning the grammar rules. There were times I knew all the words the language had, but still couldn't talk. Before starting to chat with Kemaweyan in Na'vi only I had learned a little. But he helped me get the whole thing to a new level.
Now I have few people with whom I speak in Na'vi only, but unfortunately not in the forum, but MSN or Skype. Most often they are Le'eylan and Plumps. It's a good practice for me, and will help me remember the language.

What's you favorite Na'vi word? Did you incorporate it (or others) into your everyday vocab?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Favorite Na'vi word. Well, to tell you the truth, I don't really know. I mean, now that I'm thinking of it, I don't have any favorite words in any of the languages I learn or can speak. I do like some few words like ngäng or ontu, because they sound funny ...a little. In everyday life I don't use any special words, I've even stopped talking in Na'vi outside with myself...

In your opinion, what are the top three user-created content on the LN website?

Spoiler

Anything from the main site, the wiki, or the forum including language docs, threads, quotes, literary works, images, etc.

Spoiler: Interpretation

Well, the Taronyu's dictionary, Na'vi in a nutshell and, the skxawng.lu e-mail   It was quite funny to see my classmates trying to pronounce it and make weird faces asking: "what is that?"

Have you made any contributions to the LN community that you're particularly proud of?

Spoiler

What made you make those? Do you plan on contributing (again) in the future? How?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Well, not yet. However, I am in the Hamlet translation project, and translate the book when I happen to find time for that. I would also ask all the people who feel they are good enough in Na'vi to join, because it is a time consuming project and all help is good. I have also translated the NeotrekkerZ's Nutshell and Taronyu's dictionary, but into Estonian, which isn't that useful for most of you...

Spoiler: Interpretation

Some background information at first. I saw the movie because of a bunch of good coincidences. I had no intention to go see it, because everybody was claiming it was going to be the best, most expensive and revolutionary movie before it was released. I don't like this media hype. So the only reason I ended up actually going to see the movie was because I was invited by my friends. Since school was about to end for that year and I had nothing to study, I went.
So the first emotion that I remember is the scene where Unobtanium is being mined and the big space shuttle is flying to the hells gate. The music there kind of made me think how cool and powerful the humans are. I really can't explain, but I was kind of proud or so. And then we get to know the Na'vi and when those dozers destroy the sacred trees I was just so sad. This is the thing I liked about the movie, it could change me.
What I also enjoyed was the fact that when in the beginning I was evaluating the movie, having a little "suspicion" in me, then after Jake ran from the Thanator, I was simply dragged into the movie and I remember nothing else from the first viewing than that when the big AVATAR text appeared in the end, I kind of woke up. A feeling I had never before had and haven't had after that time. Just as I was hypnotized. And I love the fact that I can still watch it and not feel bored or something. I've seen it now 11 times.
What I didn't like? A very very important and actually quite frustrating thing.... It was too short

Has Avatar  changed your life in any way?

Spoiler

Are you trying to become a Na'vi? How and to what extent? Do you live on a tree? Do you wear your hair in a long braid? Or are you just simply blue? Do you bond with animals? Is Gaia on your contact list? Did you have your photo 'shopped?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Yes. It has changed my life completely! Everything is totally different from me before Avatar, and what I am now. After Avatar I felt like I was empty inside, not a good feeling, when you have been thinking you've had it all. So after this, I've been living through some kind of a change that I've started to call enlightment. Now I love taking up really time consuming and long lasting projects. Last year I started playing the piano, which I had never done before, also languages and starting to really live a healthy lifestyle also. Still every day I think of Avatar, but not much of the movie, but what it has given me in my own life and so on.
What I would like to emphasize most is that with Avatar I have found many really good friends who share the same "dream" with me. Would like to thank all of you, who have supported me in any way, It's been really wonderful.

If you could ask Frommer or Cameron three movie or language related questions what would they be?

Spoiler

You can make requests specific words/expressions too.

Spoiler: Interpretation

Frommer: Have there (lately) been any moments that you have thought that some sounds or even some primary rules of the language actually are not what you wanted them to be, but find it impossible to change as they are closely tied together and would cause too much pain among the speakers, not to mention change the whole "face" of the language, and if so, then which features exactly?

Cameron: What are your 3 favorite movies that have been made by other directors?

Cameron and Frommer: If Pandora was discovered, and it would be as it is in the movie, and you were offered to be among the first colonists for your skills concerning Na'vi culture and language, would it be a difficult decision to make whether to go or not?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Well, I do quite a lot.  In late March, as told before, I started playing the piano for the first time in my life. Quite by accident really. I just saw a video of someone playing a song really beautifully and so one night, secretly, I took my keyboard I had had for long years and I just tried the first notes. And so it started. At first no-one had any idea that I was practicing, but after I had learned some songs I made it public, and I was happy to get a real digital piano in November. Now I follow through a course and practice every day and although it is not at all pleasurable when I learn, I still feel happy in the end and when I dream of my future skills 

I also learn German. I have learned that for 4 years, but that was at school, and I feel that there one can't learn a language well. So I started to learn by myself and found few people with who I can speak in German. It's very helpful.  I would like to thank AP Nova for his time.

And I also study Russian. I have learned that at school already for 6 years. Yes, it's a lot but I still can't speak well in Russian. Luckily I have found a person, who loves to help me. He's Sireayä mokri. Thanks!

I'm also in the Estonian linguistic team of the Zeitgeist movement and that's more or less all I do (when we exclude na'vi related things) when I have nothing to study for school.

Spoiler: Interpretation

Well, having spent almost every summer of my life in a nice southern Estonian countryside place I truly like the animals there.

Perhaps it won't be a surprise, but I do love different fish. It isn't really important, whether the fish is actually swimming around or is on my plate. Although fish are my favorite animals, I don't honestly like to fish that much anymore, because it hurts to see when they die slowly while being on the dry surface of the boat "out of water".

Secondly, I like frogs. Yep, all sorts of them, but mostly toads, as they are easy to catch and they are quite interesting slow beings.  I like their facial expression: this weird calm and blank look that they have basically saying "what? -.-"

And third, as least favorite...
The animal(s) I'm most terrified of are the bees. Yes, those little flying bugs. I know why I fear them, it's because my grandfather's hobby is to have some beehives and gather some honey.  Now as I was little I got stung by 4-5 bees in a row when shaking one of their nests, which must be the reason for me to fear them. But it's not as bad as it used to be. I don't start panicking when some bee flies around me or when I need to do something near them. I just don't feel very comfortable and I try to keep a respectful distance. Of course, there's no way I will be able to sleep when a bee would fly around in the room (yes, I have got stung while sleeping and it's not pleasant at all)

Pirate, ninja, zombie, or robot?

Spoiler

Something else? Maybe a combo? Exactly what subtype? Why? (For those of you not so versed in trash tropes, this question basically amounts to asking "What superpowers would you like to have?")

Probably a robot. I'm a really self-controlled person: I love to make plans, what to do to achieve my goal, sometimes in a very detailed way and follow them, no matter what. In school group works, I'm the one who needs to have a plan and a result in my mind's eye, or I just would not know what to do. Also I'm quite self-contained when it comes to emotions, I mean, I do have feelings, but I keep them to myself, because throughout my life so far, I have not shared my biggest problems, nor the happiest moments of my life with other people. Though I'm not always happy about it...

Haha, well going on one is one of my biggest dreams that I really hope to fulfill in one period of my life. Of course then I'll be taking more things with me.
But three things, hmm...Well, I think I would be just fine, if I just had a solar panel for energy, satellite phone to call to people at home once in a while and a nice comfortable mattress to sleep on

If you could travel to anywhere in space and time (including fictional universes), where would you go and why?

Spoiler: Interpretation

I think I would travel into the age and atmosphere of Star Trek (TOS). Probably I would like to stay on Earth (or Pandora, if it would exist ) but the reason I would go that far in the future, is because then, we humans will have finally got over the hatred between different cultures and groups of people. In the series, all the human beings are truly HUMANS, they are one big race, who is united. We never see different human groups fighting each other. Hatred leads us to nothing good.  It also seems that mankind has then got rid of valuing things with "metal", which is also only positive.

If you were granted one single wish what would it be?

Spoiler: Interpretation

That all the human beings, I mean ALL – from powerful leaders of the countries to the poorest members of the society to finally, wake up, and see how messed up the world is right now, with this corruption, poverty, wasting of earth resources and polluting. It frustrates me that people are aware of the problems, but they simply think that all these things are just supposed to be, and will/must always continue to be till the end of time.

Spoiler: Interpretation

Will I remember my current dreams and fulfill them in the future, or will I forget them?

A good question. Of course now I do hope that. I hope I have reached some kind of permanent being that would last for some years and become my life, as I jet feel it is not. But I will see, with the current attitude I think it's not at all impossible.

True or false?

Write three statements about yourself, the more extravagant the better. At least one of them must be true. At the end of the week, you'll have to tell which ones were truthful and which made up.

Weirdest and funniest was this Christmas. We have a friend-family and of course we make Christmas presents to each other. The weirdest gift I got this Christmas was from them, and it was an Avatar pen! I don't know how they even knew I was that huge fan of the movie, I have never told them (maybe my parents...), but it was really the most surprising and best gift I got this Christmas

Imagine, you find intelligent life somewhere in space and you should represent the whole humanity, what would you ask, if you're allowed to ask only one question to them. Why you choose this?

Spoiler: Interpretation

Quite a difficult one, when I think of it. Reminds me of one of my favorite movies: "Contact". But to the point. If one question only, then maybe it would be: "Who are you?" I feel that this would be the most explaining one, unless they answer with one word: "Klingons..." or something . Of course there's so much more to ask then, about their intentions, social system, technology, history...but all that would have to come later on.

Hello!, KalaKuival

Congratulations, Brother.

First I have to speak a bit to how VERY well you write in Na'vi. It makes me feel so pleased. It's especially the case because you're the only Estonian speaker of Na'vi, aren't you? It's just so admirable.

I just got a big kick out of learning the origin of your nickname, KalaKuival, by reading it here. It's super interesting to me. I knew that you liked fish, but did not know that the meaning of that name of yours was "fish out of water." That's just excellent!

I'm probably wrong, but I'll answer true, true, false. I totally suck at this kind of game.

Congrats again and please continue giving everyone here the gift of your presence in the community, forever.

My never-ending thanks!

nice done, KalaKuival

1.) I think that you must not hate Snow and everything related to it, because the your land is very cold some times, isn't it? WRONG!
2.) You said: "In everyday life I don't use any special words, I've even stopped talking in Na'vi outside with myself...", that's why I think that you don't say "kaltxì kelku" when you come home. WRONG!
3.) One thing must be true, so this has to be TRUE. But I want to say "Heavy metal can help you for real, I know that "

I hope we can chat again, because it was fun to me!

Eywa be with you, KalaKuival!

Schönes Ding, KalaKuival

1.) Ich denke das du Schnee und das drumherum nicht hassen darfst, da dein Land doch zeitweise ziemlich kalt ist, oder nicht? FALSCH!
2.) Du sagtest: "Ich benutze keine speziellen Wörter im Alltagsleben, ich habe sogar damit aufgehört draußen mit mir selbst in Na'vi zu reden...", daher dneke ich, dass du nicht "kaltxì kelku sagen würdest, wenn du nach hause kommst. FALSCH!
2.) Eine Sache soll richtig sein, also muss diese Sache RICHTIG sein! Aber ich will noch sagen: "Heavy Metal kann wirklich helfen, ich weiß das "

Ich hoffe wir können uns mal wieder unterhalten, es hat mir Spaß gemacht!

Probably a taste of Tirea's own conlang?

[KalaKuival]

Oh, tewti! No wonder no translator could translate it

[Txantslusam Skxawng]

Maybe they should add his conlang to the translator


Maybe I should add some Dutch in here, to complete the language collection in here

In het Nederlands:

Als eerste: GEFELICITEERD KALAKUIVAL!!!

Nou , de 'beroemde' Kalakuival, of ook wel 'vis op het droge', we spreken elkaar wel eens op MSN, misschien wel meer dan 'eens' en altijd hadden we het over interessante onderwerpen. De ene keer over hoe de economie hier aan toe gaat, hoe het beter kan en de andere keer over meningen van bepaalde onderwerpen, maar altijd blijft het interessant en boeiend.
Nog altijd vind ik het erg leuk om deze gesprekken met jou te houden, ik vind het wel jammer dat ik weinig Na'vi leer, dat is zeker een van mij goede voornemens van dit jaar, MEER NA'VI LEREN!!!


Je antwoorden op de vragen zijn ook leuk om te lezen, alhoewel we volgens mij we eens eerder over de vraag:

Vraag #14
Welke drie voorwerpen zou jij meenemen naar een onbewoond eiland en waarom?

Volgens mij zei je toen, een boot op de zee, een laptop en een satelliet-telefoon. Maarja, ik kan het ook fout hebben Of had je het toen wat je wou doen met je pension?

Ik gun je het helemaal als Na'vi van de Week, gefeliciteerd!


En als laatste:

-O ( Wie houdt er nou niet van sneeuw!! )
-J ( Op een of andere manier denk ik dat je dat nog wel doet )
-O ( Metal om je te kalmeren, jij?! Neh! Of ik heb het helemaal mis! )


Of course a translation into English

In het Engels:

First this: CONGRATULATIONS KALAKUIVAL!!!

Well, the 'famous' Kalakuival, also 'fish on dry', we chat on MSN from time to time sometimes, well..., maybe more then 'sometimes' and we always talk about interesting subjects. Then we talk about the economy, how it can be better and also about opinion about certain subjects, but it always stays interesting and fascinating.
Still I always enjoy having these conversations with you, but I find it sad that I don't learn a lot of Na'vi, that is one the things I want to do this year, LEARNING MORE NA'VI!!!


And your answers on the question are also fun to read, but about

Question #14
What three items would you take to a desert island and why?

I think if I remember we talked about this and it was little bit different answer, your three things then were, if I am correct, a boat on sea, a laptop and a satellite-phone. But I can also be wrong Or were you talking about what you want to do after you are retired?

And I think you totally deserve to be Na'vi of the Week, congratulations!


And as last:

-F ( Who doesn't like snow!! )
-T ( Somehow I still think you do that )
-F ( Metal to calm down, you?! Nah! Or I am terribly wrong! )

[Human No More]

Congratulations

[KalaKuival]

Thank you!
And another language

Question #14
What three items would you take to a desert island and why?

I think if I remember we talked about this and it was little bit different answer, your three things then were, if I am correct, a boat on sea, a laptop and a satellite-phone. But I can also be wrong Or were you talking about what you want to do after you are retired?

Yes, maybe, but i've changed my opinions about few things as you can see. I doubt that I would need a boat, because probably there would be no need to return. Laptop, it will just break down

[archaic]

CONGRATULATIONS KALAKUIVAL!!!

My guesses .....

-T You can have too much snow, and way too much cold!
-F You said you don't speak the language outside yourself.
-T A good bit of loud can get the stress out, when nothing else can!
