Talk:Alien languages

Where did you get the AL2 info? You only skipped 1 and 22, but I thought #6 was also unknown

It's in the font. Everywhere I've seen lists only 22 and 1 as unknown...

... I looked around, and all the sites I found list 2, 6, and 22 as unknown...

This site lists the sixth and twenty-second symbols. As does this site, leaving only symbol 1 unknown. How canon these are is in doubt, obviously. I haven't done the research myself, so I cannot say where each letter is spotted.

[update]: Actually, in the sreenshot I uploaded of the Hall of Eternity, symbol 22 is on there, so that one at least, is canon. In the original Hall of Eternity shot from The Day the Earth Stood Stupid, it says "Yummy Tummy" (common knowledge), but in this pic, from The Why of Fry, it says "Fuzzy Buzzy".

Also, it means I can't encode "Buddy" in AL2.

I heard that in The Why of Fry it says "Fuzzy Wuzzy". Don't call me on this, but I believe they mentioned it on the commentaries on either The Day the Earth Stood Stupid or The Why of Fry.

You're probably right. I used the continue-from-the-last-word method. It probably restarts on the second. 22 would be W in that case.

[update]: Yep, I just checked. If you start over on the first letter, it's fuzzy wuzzy.

The second Alien Alphabet may be known by the name "Betacrypt 3", Farnsworth uses this designation in Leela's Homeworld, although it is not sure if he really meant that. But as it is the only other alien alphabet except alienese, it might be this one.

People keep saying that, but I doubt it. And there are other languages, just look at the pillars in "My Three Suns" - not that they mean anything, but it proves that there aren't just two languages. And unless the printout was in AL2, there's no reason to believe the two are related. And in the commentaries, they always say "Alien Language Two" - not once do they say "Betacrypt three".
