Locate the demo subtitles thread. Some things are explained in there.

Somewhere in the forum is a thread about English subtitles for the German demo. In it the author of the subtitles explains how he did it. Should be one or two pages back.

I know this is off topic (sorry guys) but I think it is so cool to listen to different people around the world try to speak English. You can almost tell what region they are from by the way they place their verbs & nouns…very cool.

Well, I said it before - i`ll say it again. They said that the game will be realised on all europen languages. So I don`t think this would happen but I would like to do something for this game. I would like to translate it witj my friends so It will become more popular in my country.
What do u think?

If we, all the different people around the world, were smart--I mean not just literate, but wise as well-- we'd all start speaking one language, Esperanto for example, or English, or Russian, or any other language (as long as it's not some mumbo-tumbo tongue of rain forest dwellers ), and live in prosperity and mutual understanding ever since.

I envy all you people across the big pond (both of them) because you grow up learning, most of the time, two or more languages and that’s not including English…I think American have become too complacent with our language. It’s like almost everyone understands English so why learn another language…Big mistake! At least I know one word in German...Heinhandler (sp).

because English is not the most beautiful language of the world, there are more beautiful languages, e.g. french (pas véritablement?)

and what the fuck is "Heinhandler"? I'm a german but i dont know this word...

I thought that’s how you spell one handed in German? Being an American, I have a little problem with the French Gov.

It's spelled "Einhänder", the common foreign spelling would be "Einhander" (eins/ein - one; hand - hand; einhander = one handed (thing, ie. sword). And yes, other languages can be fun.

€: New vocabulary:
Zweihander = two-handed sword
