Ive gotten this assignment from school, i am to translate this text below with the help of people in my networks, and as freddyshouse is part of my network i post it here..

I have no clue to what it can say, but we are guessing that it is mandika.
=================================

=========================

If anyone has any clue to what it can say, keywords or such, please do send it in a pm to me or post in this thread!

If you dont even have the sligthest clue to what it is, forward it to friends and family who might know what it means and ask them aswell, if they dont know, ask them to forward it to people they think might know what it means then report down back the chain.

I thank you in advance for helping out!

Just an idea.

But also, ning is a word in estonian also.

It could..maybe...*goes check*...nope, esperanto ain't it.

Be back later with my usual resource results.

Have had to do something similar before and found it to be that certain letters were there to represent others...like K on the page would in fact be 'e'.

The way I sorted it out was to work out the average occurance of letters through looking in a book and then pretty much count the letters in the paragraph. You can get a general idea of it and while it isn't perfect, it's better then nothing so worth a go. Just remember that any letters you change, colour them in red or something, otherwise you'll forget where you are.

These were my findings to save you some time. I remember what I did now. I got a random 2pages of a book and used word to count the letters...say you did that if this works at all.

All numbers are in percentages.

b2.1
c2.5
d4.2
e12
f2.2
g3.2
h6.7
i6.7
j0.1

m2.1
n6.9
o7.5
p1.2
q0.1
r5.7
s6.5
t8.4
u2.6
v0.9
w2.5
x0.1
y1.6

edit: If you find this works, I can send you more excel graphs and such of my findings for it if you want something more bulky to hand in...

Thank you for your input!

the more suggestions and help we have gotten has helped us rule out diffarent things and we are pretty much cirtain that its an african language called "Mandika" that we are dealing with.

Thanks again!

Tell your teacher he's a bit fucking cnut who should be teaching you things which will help you get a job, instead of wasting your time.

No Job Applcation form is gonna be written in spastic so this seems a waste of time.
I am very tired, apologies for anger issues :(

Did you get the answer?

Hello!
I saw your question from November 2007 about a mystic language (you thought it was mandika). You wrote that it was an assignment from school, where you were supposed to translate the text with the help of people in your networks. Now a friend of mine asked me the exact same question. Did you ever find out what language it was? Could you even assist me with a proper translation in english or swedish?

Hmm, I've actally read up on this ever since it was posted, and with a bit of help from google translate and Baywatch, I may actually be on the right track here.
