It is really surprising that you were communicating with Volition staff in 1998. Is the "date sent" wrong? Because how old would you be then? 11?

He probably got it forwarded from someone else who had received it then.

:wtf:

The letter was sent to Dan Wentz, not me.  He had it sitting in his archives all this time, and only forwarded it to me a few days ago.  I posted it immediately after I received the email.

That's all I got.  I don't have any other nouns or any other verbs.

Interesting, but if this was ever used at all it was probably limited to FS1. There don't seem to have been any patterns or distinctive pieces in the FS2 speech like there were in FS1.

--- Quote ---The crowning achievement of the Vasudan civilization is its language. For the average Terran, the formalities governing its usage are beyond comprehension. Syntax and vocabulary are dictated by such factors as the speaker's age, rank, and caste, the time of day and the phase of the Vasudan calendar, and the relative spatial position of the speaker to the Emperor. This is further compounded by the existence of several alphabets, dozens of verb tenses, and thousands of dialects.

Hey! You are inferior!
Stress those vowels differently! Or I shall report you to the Emperor!
