Snakes on a Sign Language Translation III
June 26th, 2006 at 10:40 pm

A few weeks ago I posted a translation of Snakes on a Plane into American Sign Language. Then Will was kind enough to make two stickdeath animations showing the translation in action. Meredith, who actually knows ASL, was kind enough to give us a video of a true ASL translation:

Snakes on an ASL Translation

Now can anyone do Klingon?

Too bad there is no translation for plane or snakes in Klingoneese.

Because my boss is out today, because I promised Brian an ASL video of this and failed to come through, and because I pretty much have no life, I did some research into the Klingon vocabulary, and this is what I found:

ghargh = serpent worms (the closest Klingons have to the Earth snake)

duj = vessel, aircraft

Until I hear back from the folks at the Klingon Language Institute, this is gonna have to suffice.

Here’s one more for extra credit:
