Translation software: Difference between revisions

The UNSC also uses a form of advanced AI translator in [[xenoarchaeology|xenoarchaeological]] studies of Forerunner records, such as the [[Halo: Cryptum|Bornstellar Relation]]. This software, much like that in the Forerunners' [[Z-9930 Information Vector Console|own terminals]], translates titles and otherwise meaningful names of individuals to their English equivalents; for example, "[[Ur-Didact|the Didact]]" or "[[Mendicant Bias]]" are used, as opposed to rendering the titles in the original Forerunner language. Similarly, the translator substitutes many of the original proper names and terms with analogous words familiar to the viewer, derived from the history, culture and mythology of the modern human civilization. This explains several proper names which appear to be out of place in their Forerunner context, such as "[[Promethean]]", "[[Maginot Line]]" or "[[wisdom of Harbou]]".{{Ref/Reuse|cryptum}}
