Stumbled over this in Gothenburg, Sweden. Made my day.

I took a stab at it. Transliterated, it says: “Qapla’. Qu’Dunvad ghunwl’ DlSam.” I ran it through Bing’s translator (since the only word I recognize is Qapla’), and I got “Success. Your baby better is done.” I think the translation is wrong. When I was playing with another translator, it gave me “Success. For the glorious battle has begun” which seems more fitting.
They have ads in Elvish and Star Wars Galactic Standard, too. If nobody translates it before I get home, I’ll break out the old dictionary. https://www.thestable.com.au/we-are-more-castra-the-worlds-first-elvish-ads/
Please update us if you get the dictionary out!
When I looked, aebeltrae’s translation agreed with my print dictionary with the exception of the last syllable, which I couldn’t find. The linked dictionary on this page does have the last syllable “Sam”, so it looks like they nailed it.
Wait, do people speak Klingon in Sweden? I thought everyone there spoke Human.
I’m just an average Star Trek watcher. I mean, I like it very much, but if I compare myself to most of the posters in here, I wouldn’t call myself a fan.
That said:
- How did you know, this ad is related to Star Trek
- What language is it (I’d guess klingon, but am not sure)
- Could you translate this?
It’s klingon! I just know what it looks like from a life of nerding, same as with tengwar, Time Lord script, the unitologist writing from dead space. Couldn’t tell you where exactly I picked any of that up. That said. I can’t translate it. The glyphs make it borderline impossible to use translation software :/
Hmm, I can recognize Klingon and tengwar, but not the others. I can still read Daedric from when I played Morrowind all the time, but it takes me a while to remember what the individual glyphs mean.
Yes that’s definitely Klingon, sadly can’t translate it tho
People around these parts would probably ask me if I even like star trek :)
I found an interesting position there. But there seems to be no discription of the job itself, just of the company. That’s odd.
