What Kind Of Language Will The Blue Guy Speak?

Well strike me dead, but I do believe that's the first time I've won anything. Lol.

@Biomechanic I thought it was the secret recipe for Coke!

I thought it was a description of boobs............ :-D

Shaw could probably recognize and begin to understand the ancient mystical script, and that it has connections to ancient Hebrew symbols like Biomechanic said earlier. As well as Cuneiform and elements of ancient Egyptian Demotic + some of the runes and symbol magick that seems to have been passed around secretly to priest classes, brought back by Aleister Crowley when he supposedly channeled an Atlantean being (I think he just studied the runes from many cultures and made that shit up). It seems like a mixture of very ancient symbols and hieroglyphs. I don't fully expect Shaw to understand it, but I think she'll figure some things out. As for speaking it, I dunno how that would work out. But, since Shaw's an archaeologist/anthropologist she should be very used to studying other cultures,and human groups-- even having to learn new languages to learn about them. She should be able to find ways to communicate through actions, the hieroglyphs, knowing how to display and interpret the right gestures driven by primate psychology (like you would a primate), and how to interpret responses from anthropoids so they can start to build a common pidgin language. They seem to have a lot of things in common with us, so it should be a piece of cake for Shaw if she has the right knowledge. Because she's an archaeologist Shaw might be more geared towards physical/biological anthropology, and would probably question why these beings are so similar to us and appear like some kind of Hominoid or Hominid. She might also question how these being differ from us and the other known Hominids/Hominoids.

Lets hope they don't have Brylcreem in their hair...like the '51 classic.....

Obviously whatever cinema your country is in! Hehe sorry m8, just couldn't help it

why isn't he wearing his helmet ??! If he doesn't need it then what is the point of it ??

I am starting to think our blue friend is a mutated human or android and we havent even see the space jockey yet the shoulder pad makes me think its a very stretched human space suit, look at the orange lines on it very much like the screenshots of the human suits. In the original alien the scale of the navigation room was ambiguous because Ridley used children in suits to make everything appear larger but when Dallas and company get close up to the chair it appears quite a bit smaller.

if anyone has being paying attention to the whole mythos behind this movie- it has been spoken off that this will draw heavily on the "Chariots of the Gods" book by Eric von daniken. The language and hieroglyphics we keep seeing are ancient Sumerian cuniform text- this gives way to the language being ancient Sumerian- the first language and oldest in recorded history. This is an assumption and based on what i have seen it would greatly please me to find out this true. the ancient astronaught theory of the sumarians is based around a race of beings or "Star Gods" that said the gods were know as the annunaki. if the "Engineer" "Space Jockey" is Annunaki that would fit really well with the "Chariots of the Gods" theme. Annunaki translated means- those whom from the heavens cae If you research the annunaki you will find that they were purported to have mixed there own DNA with proto human erectus to increase our intelligence and use humanity as a slave race to mine for gold for there own specified purposes. i wont go into to much detail but if you research the topic you may find one or two connection that i feel will tie in with the film. this is speculative but does all seem to fit together well. if you would like to watch a film that ties in with what i have said the watch THE FOURTH KIND- you may be pleasantly surprised. have a great weekend guys Luke

@craigmore Just thinking again about communication and I really think you might be spot on that they do not communicate verbally to us and the horror behind that but say they communicate via signs.... Ancient myths always talked about god has given us a sign.... rarly do you hear god speak as it were people looked upon abnormal events as signs from God i.e. God was angry for instance and sent a plague of locusts to punish our greed. So will they communicate in a much broader way than any verbal communication could possibly do by affecting the environment around us or creating monsters just like in old mythios?

Why do you assume they are enemies? I still can't figure out this assumption. Perhaps they have other motives and goals, but I think the term "enemies" merely emphasizes the likely gap in communication and understanding. Language? Binary code, machine language, mathematics. That seems the most likely language to me. Perhaps this is a language that a David8 can understand. Information exchange.

Oops, didn't realize the thread went another 3 pages.
