How do we pronounce... in General
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Friday, June 10 2005 09:00 Profile Homepage #27 quote: Originally written by Student of Trinity: Linguists somehow believe they have reconstructed how actual ancient Romans pronounced their Latin. (I don't know much about how this is done, except that I don't think it relies much at all on Stargate-style theories of phonetic change over time. One important technique is to scan the ancient literature for references to the funny accents of foreigners/yokels/idiots etc. Such comments often have implications for how things were supposed to be pronounced. Maybe Kelandon can tell us more about how this works?) I don't know as much about this as I should, but apparently the main source is the pronunciation of the Romance languages. There are certain standard sound changes — Grimm's Law, that sort of thing — that one uses to reconstruct how an original language must've sounded from the differing pronunciations of the descendant languages. Then there are the ancient grammarians, who wrote a fair amount on how each letter was supposed to be pronounced (which is less useful than it sounds, but more than nothing). Transliteration is also very useful — Romans and Greeks used different alphabets, but they wrote a number of the same words, particularly names. Transliteration is useful in two ways: first, from the formal writings, to get an idea of what the formal grammarians and ancient linguists thought the relationships between the languages were — there is a standard Latin way of transliterating Greek, and it's not quite the same as the standard English way of doing it — and second, from graffiti (of which there is a lot still in existence, particularly in Pompeii), to see what the mis-spellings and improper pronunciations were, which gives an idea of the actual pronunciation. The result being that we have enough information that we actually could speak Latin and sound like a native speaker if we wanted. Ancient Greek is a bit harder to reconstruct for various reasons, and other languages can be even worse — apparently Classical Chinese presents an interesting problem, because the writing system is not phonetic — but we actually can do a fair bit with this. (Incidentally, this is all off the top of my head. I think the Perseus Classics site may have something good on this, or Google may be able to track something good down. And, of course, the standard work is Sidney Allen's Vox Latina.) And yes, in Classical Latin, it's MAHG-ee, stress on the first syllable, but with a long I in the second syllable, so it's held for a beat and a half compared to the single beat of the first syllable. The vowels are pronounced more or less with the quality of a Spanish or Italian vowel. Or, if you wanted to go the way of Church Latin (which is easier but still semi-authentic), it's MAH-JEE, pronunced as if it were Italian. Or for full-on Anglicization (ew), it's MAG-eye, pronounced like English. EDIT: And yes, it's a plural, and yes, we've been over this.

Think I am in BIG trouble!! in Blades of Avernum
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Thursday, June 9 2005 16:08 Profile Homepage #7 This may be unnecessary at this point, but it might be useful if someone else has a similar question. You have to do two things before you can successfully use the controls in Major Waste: 1. Go to the Main Control Room and activate the controls. If you haven't done this, you will get a message telling you that "You need to find a way to activate the panel," whereas if you have, you will get a message that says, "Then you notice that one of the displays isn't inactive after all. It's flickering very dimly." 2. Get the special item Crystal of Power from the vahnatai. If you haven't done this, you get a message, "You push the switch. A little hole opens up on the panel, and the words 'Insert Crystal' appear next to it, written in green, glowing letters on the stone. Alas, you have no crystal, or anything similar." If you have, you get, "You push the switch. A little hole opens up on the panel, and the words 'Insert Crystal' appear next to it, written in green, glowing letters on the stone. It looks like the crystal the Vahnatai gave you would fit perfectly." -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Thursday, June 9 2005 15:40 Profile Homepage #10 I'll take this moment to remind you that Kelandon is stressed on the second syllable, kel-LAN-don, as if one took the name Landon and stuck a "kel" on the front of it.

Stuck in Bahs! in Blades of Avernum
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Thursday, June 9 2005 15:30 Profile Homepage #3 Yes, I got the Maze e-mail. If I were actually convinced you meant the second puzzle by the walkthrough's numbering system, I'd be a lot more confident giving this answer, but I'll give it anyway. The easiest way I know of to solve this one is to move the first mirror to (35,30), which is the space with the single north wall. Next, move another mirror from (39,25), along the east wall, up to (38,19), next to the northeastern-most mirror in the room. Then get the last mirror in the room and put it at (38,30), which is a few spaces to the east from where the first mirror got put. Move the first mirror out of the way of the beam, and voila! You're done. There is some chance that I'm remembering this wrong, but I think that's how it goes. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.
