In Response To: Got Swahili? (Possible Outskirts Egg?) (ZexGX)

: I was wandering around the rooftops on Outskirts a few days ago, and found an
: alley with a parked truck that's above the ground level and below the
: rooftops. It was kind of hard to find, so I figured that it must be there
: for a purpose, but I couldn't destroy either of the two garage doors, but
: the red parked van is destroyable... My thinking is, if this was just some
: random space left in by the developers, why would there be two garage
: doors in it, a parked truck, and a loudspeaker? The only thing that I
: could think of that made it different than the other aboveground areas in
: that part of the level was the loudspeaker that seemed to say random
: things, so I sat under it for 15 minutes, recorded everything it said, and
: cut out the phrases that seemed different - there might be more things it
: says but the music kicked in and made recording it pointless, because the
: background music would make it hard to understand and would sound like
: crap :\
: Anyways, here's what I got recorded and also a picture of the area for you to
: get to it.

: Can anybody translate these and post what they say when translated to
: English?

: Well I searched Swahili to English Translation on MSN and found this site http://research.yale.edu/cgi-bin/swahili/main.cgi?right_frame_src=http%3A//research.yale.edu/swahili/serve_pages/dictionaries.php After some research I did some and got these words

[b]1.mp3[/b]

1st word
-tahadhari { English: avoid }
-tahadhari { English: be cautious }
-tahadhari { English: be on guard (against) }
-tahadhari { English: protect from harm }
-tahadhari { English: warn }
tahadhari { English: be careful! }

2nd word
za { English: of }

couldn't find the next words

[b]2.mp3[/b]

Dont have enough tome to do that one, lol

[b]4.mp3[/b]

couldnt get the first word (sounded like zanga?)

2nd word
gange { English: chalk stone }
gange { English: limestone }

I dont have time to do the others (and I'm kinda lazy) but you guys should brainstorm on this. We can do this before Frankie comes bak on these forums tomorrow or so!

PS: along the way I stumbled along the word Mombasa in Swahili and the translation is Mombasa so you'd have to check that out...I guess thats why they picked that name.....BTW Frankie how bout you tell us where the last skull is if we can figure this out :)
