Re: But this prompts a question
Posted By: GatchamanUK <gatchamanuk@yahoo.com>Date: 4/28/08 1:13 p.m.

In Response To: Re: But this prompts a question (MJOLNIR7)


What I got from that passage was that words in [square brackets] had no direct translation to English, and whoever (MB probably) was translating them chose the closest meaning. There is no English word for the equipment or method needed to make a new Halo, as it is a Forerunner concept.
I had this understanding because (If I'm not mistaken) whenever time is referenced in the terminals it is translated like this, as our method of measuring time is totally dependent on the Earth's orbit, wheras Forerunner time would be measured differently.

Phew! I hope all that makes sense!
