the easiest way to deal with trolls:
send them back to the 4chan cave they came from

But the good thing about Avatar: Arguments are always on your side

Side note @ Seabass :

I think you should make your title say olo'eyktan, instead of Ikran Makto and Toruk Makto...
Oel ngati kameie.

I live in a world where dreams are controlled by others, not by yourself. I live in a world where people choose what you become, and you have no choice whatsoever. This will change. My dreams will become reality. And that, my friends, is a promise.

I don't even speak as much Na'vi as half the people on the site, but I'm a diehard Na'vi cultural fan!

Verbal warfare is the way to go. We silenced Gamefags pretty well.

Did we? Awesome! (checks)

EDIT: Doesn't look like it. If anything it looks like a flame war to me. Neither side seems to be making any headway and both sides have resulted to insults at one point or another.

QuoteThough the initial Avatar discs won't include extras, Frommer said he was interviewed on the set and expects the footage to be included with future deluxe editions of the film. And though he hasn't been asked to put together any sort of language guide for a potential DVD extra, Frommer said he is interested in writing a book about how to speak Na'vi, akin to the Klingon Dictionary.

I like those details a lot. Most of them we already knew but it's great to see them straight from Karyu Pawl. Really hope the book comes true at some point (soon). I also hope that we do get some kind of language thing on the DVD. Heck, even if it's just a stupid, how to say "oel ngati kameie" it would be great.

Quote from: Translated
Learning Na'vi made easy?
At www.learnnavi.org language enthusiasts can experience new challenges. © www.learnnavi.org

It was just a matter of time: Since an institute exists whose purpose is to teach and spread the Klingon language, and elvish grammar books are available in bookstores – the propagation of the "artlanguage" (conlanguage) spoken by the beings of James Cameron's Avatar comes at no surprise.

At www.learnnavi.org, Stuttgart-native Sebastian Wolff published a dictionary which allows the translating of ~500 Words from Na'vi to English. The filmstudent also delivered Paul Frommer's grammer, which a forum is actively discussing. When will the Na'vi-Klingon dictionary appear?

Sorry for the half-txìm'd translation. Still are having make sense?
