>>152418344
Parenthesis yeah, but they're made up. Not taken from the anime.

From the anime all we have are A-Z and also the period is just a normal dot.

Notice there are 2 fonts in the OP. One is just the actual canon stuff, and the second font has some made up extra punctuation like parenthesis, commas, exclamation point, question mark, etc..

>>152418364
It earned us a much coveted AMA, seems good to me.

>>152418364
Maybe the attention it's getting will lead to Trigger putting in real secret messages.

This reminds me of those old alien language ciphers from Futurama.

So what does all that shit say?

Did Diana get all of it or what?

>>152418364
Why'd they make a coherent alphabet and translate actual text if it wasn't important. They could get away with gibberish if they didn't care.
Tattun confirmed on twitter that there are a bunch of texts they had to translate using this code. Also Trigger is withholding the cheat sheet until the end of the show so it must be important enough.

What if the moon cycle corresponds to some actual moon phases.

I'm trying to look it up but it's hard to understand. I wonder if there's some actual year/month or whatever that has this particular moon cycle

>>152418630
There's no waxing or waning tho

>>152418452
As they pointed out, it was probably easier for us because the English speakers already easily think in A-Z and a Latin-similar consonant-vowel relationship, in addition to some people who had a basic knowledge of Latin itself which made guessing "NON" etc much simpler. If they corresponded to kana and wrote out a relatively familiar Japanese phrase the Japs may well have beaten us to it, although many on /a/ are of course also familiar with kana.

I told /a/ they wouldn't be able to do it because the moonrunes would correspond to Japanese.

Boy was I wrong. But we did luck out, seriously. Has nothing to do with intelligence.

>>152418074
all this monerune shit corresponds to the entire theme of astrology going on in the show

>>152418630
As somebody at the end of the last thread mentioned, there's no waxing half-moon. You'd have to either draw extremely arbitrary lines of where the "full" symbol starts and the "waxing crescent" symbol ends, which ought to give a noticeable effect on the frequency of those symbols in the pattern, or assume that the half-moon counts for both waxing and waning, which would probably fuck up the whole thing. Regardless of your resolution plan, wherever you draw the lines is going to determine how easy it is to find a match, coincidental or real.

>>152418754
I'm glad he corrected the nip, that could have been dangerous if someone else had been there.

>>152418798
Wow

>>152418767
It wasn't that hard to figure out it would be latin, since all of the spells are as well.

>>152418798
Don't set yourself up for disappointment like /vp/ with their alchemy theories for sun and moon

>>152418754
What's the point of fake translations like this?

>>152418767
I think the determining factor is that we're sitting here discussing Jap TV and a lot of people could easily go through all the hiragana/katakana symbols by rote, while the Japs are discussing Jap TV and may or may not know or care much about English/Latin.

Nothing so far, the moon runes on the board were just lorem ipsum.

>>152428430
whenever a moonrune appears in future episode it'll be much easier to decode.

the producer of the show won't give out the cheat sheet until the end of the run so it must hold importance

Yeah I've been trying to figure out how the fuck to make this script fluid. Sorry for phoneposting

>>152432318
Try joining certain moon phases with a line, the rest of the rune with a dot/cross/side line. I haven't tried it out but I think that could make it faster

>>152431959
The one that is shifted around and taken six adjacent symbols from

>>152432373

This is a type of runes that isn't really made for for handwriting. It is more for stone carving and shit

>This is a type of runes that isn't really made for for handwriting

True. The more stylized the handwriting gets the harder it is to interpret the moons anyway.

>>152427558

helps when it's just a sppoky version of a language you know to cross reference with when a pattern arises. too expensive to make up a new language.

So you want to turn /a/ or 4chan into a forum platform? Heavily moderated sessions 'for a select few' interviewees? I just don't want it to become such a common thing, as it could have other implications of how japmoot runs things (changes to policy). The sites already filled with PR, shillings and market research, I just don't want things to change any more than they have over the years to accommodate external pressures. The general sycophantic behaviour when we have those interviews can also be really abhorrent.

tl;dr I hate change and ass kissing 'important' people.

>>152434112
This isn't a "change", nor would it lead to a "heavily moderated platform". These things really aren't new and how the hell would they become a common thing?

>>152418441
Are we actually getting an AMA with the director?

>>152434367
the LWA producer apparently

>>152434112
Why the fuck would it become a common thing? Both mamare and tattun literally appeared out of nowhere.

>>152434268

Yes. For only LH author only, beyond that it's merely moot/japmoot/mod sucking up. I cannot remember or know of every single time it's happen or on every board. I knew of the deadmou5 of /mu/ but never browsed the board when it happened, same can be said of any others on other boards. What I'm getting at is setting a precedent. Yes they are rare and they need to be that way. But inviting the guy back, encouraging the use of a trip and then setting up the possibility of another trigger employee, just starts the run of other entities further down the line all starting to do AMA's. If this is what you want then so be it, but it's just not how I'd like to see PR/interview interactions on 4chan. I just don't think the way we tend to communicate fits with a proper interview scenario. Take the various times moot would post in a thread, it would divulge into a complete shitshow, with him attempting to answer some cherry picked questions among the sheer spam of a thread. If you start to heavily moderate AMA threads, that can extend further. Do you want more dick pic tweets and the like? Do you want vigorously controlled behaviors in AMAs? Or just want the moot level wash of spam and insults to be the mainstay content of the thread?

Why does it has to be one or the other? Neither extreme was a thing when Tattun came.
Though, I had to decide, I would prefer the later. Letting people run rampant is just the usual for this place.

It's not that bad, it's just that the user input process is way too cumbersome. You could probably do it quicker just by looking at the cheat sheet.

I don't think there really is any elegant way for a user to input the runes on a computer.
Probably the best bet for a decoding program would be one which you can feed an image and it reads the symbols off the image, which would be way more complex.

He's talking about the early days. Early (and by early I mean '06 and before) 4chan didn't have that sort of spam. Big difference is that modern 4chan most people treat as a chat room, not a forum. It's a race to get your own inane comments in because everything moves so fast.

Interesting and possibly quite handy. Thanks, anon.

Madoka runes. More visually pleasing, and translate into a better language.

>>152441800
both

Languages and alphabets succesfully translated by /a/ :
Madoka Runes
LWA Moonrunes
Enta Isla
Suisei no Gargantia's written alphabets

Am I missing something?

>>152441800
all this post can make me think about is LWA, but animated by Inuit Curry

Aquarion EVOL's.

Good job.

I'll see what I can do with the Tesseract library then.

How new are you? Mods have worked with people for Q&As in the past. Hell, deadmau5 was given his own capcode for one several years back.

Honestly, were any of these actually a unique language, or just a substitution cipher on all accounts?

That said, I also did the majority of the runes in Gate, but I didn't finish watching the second season to get any remaining letters. (B, F, L, P, Q, V, X, Y, and Z)

>>152443177
i believe they are all ciphers

People make constructed languages all the time; some even make them and open them up to be used by anyone. I feel it would be neat if an anime actually made use of a conlang, and actually make you faggots have to work to decipher shit.

>>152443177
I can't imagine a studio putting in the effort to make a true conlang. They're hard work if you don't half ass it. It's pretty much reserved for linguistic geeks.

>>152443313
Man, that would be neat as all hell.

>>152443313
The only weeb media conlang I can think of is Hymnos. And they had a lot more time to make that, since that's from a video game.

Are there any others in weeb media?

>>152443329
The Language Creation Society has a site where you can hire an interested conlanger.

http://jobs.conlang.org/submit-a-job-listing
A full language (orthography included) would be at least $600, which I don't think is much more than any other professional artist. So the studio can work on most of the show while the conlang is being made.
(Note, this is also the site GoT used to commission Dothraki.)

>>152443660
Yeah they could. Or they can just do a substitution with some symbol set, which has about the same effect from a viewer perspective (arguably a better one if you consider accessibility) and costs about an hour's worth of time from some autist they already have on staff.

Even if someone did go through the effort, I think the audience would be more likely to suspect gibberish than conlang.

Ok here is the runes reader I mentioned earlier in the thread. Basically select an image with (clear) runes, and it will spit out the translation

I doubt I'll keep working on this, since getting it to work with screenshots is proving kinda hard

>>152443779
I think the effort they put into the moon pattern kinda shows some work were put into it, so maybe they just suck at conlanging and did a half-assed job.

>>152444589
It's cool but it's nowhere near the work involved in creating a grammar and a vocab that sounds reasonable when spoken.

>>152444784
they're not speaking it though

>>152442020
Danmachi (2 rune sets) and Konosuba (at least 3 sets), but there were also parallel decyphering in Japan etc.

Some of the first /wsr/ threads were KonoSuba rune threads, for example.

>>152444452
Can I please have the source code to this thing? I'm trying to code a language for Tesseract.

>>152444817
That's true. But Latin is also their spell casting language; presumably they'd use the same for both. Besides, replace spoken with read and you get the same result.

Also I don't think you're going to fit enough of a language in a show to get a real translation going unless you're talking about 50+ episodes.

>>152444876
I ain't too keen on OCR, but wouldn't it be sufficient to "simply remap" the glyph for the letters from the latin glyphs to the moonrunes?

>>152444928
I'll use the Latin package as a baseline, but training Tesseract is a major ordeal, both manually and computationally. Any pre-existing work would be helpful.

>>152443779
I mean, for some shows, the writing system being just a cipher makes sense. Take the literal moon runes in LWA; the story says they're meant to be a code to share between witches. Not necessarily another language.
The same could be argued for some other shows, but then it doesn't make sense for others, where their made up alphabet is meant for the residents of some other world, and explicitly speak not-Japanese.

>>152445029
Sure looks like so.
Can't we just automatically generate training data (text and the associated screencaps) with —gasp— e.g. MS Word VBA?

I think a good analogy would be old alchemical manuscripts. They were usually written in the local language or Latin, and the symbols were just used to cloak important information.

>>152444784
I wasn't implying it's good, in fact I was agreeing it sucks and is only a cypher, just pointing out they actually put some effort into it because the script rotation thing is quite intersting.
