Chapter 51 Deciphering Dwarf Language
In the afternoon, Chen Lin received a call from the Hongshan Base Office, saying that there was a project that required his assistance.
"The Dwarven language has been translated!"
Chen Lin thought of this subconsciously.
He set out for the place specified on the phone, where he met an old acquaintance again.
The old man from the previous Biological Research Institute was standing at the door.
When Chen Lin saw him, he immediately realized that what he just thought was probably true.
When the old professor saw Chen Lin coming, he walked up quickly.
"Young man, come and try it quickly!"
"We updated the equipment and inferred the entire language family based on the previous Dwarven language... but none of us can understand the words spoken."
"So I need your help to hear if the AI is speaking Dwarf language!"
The security guard next to Chen Lin wanted to stop the old professor, but Chen Lin waved his hand to signal not to be so nervous.
A group of people entered the house, and Chen Lin noticed that there were several people in the house.
As soon as these people saw Chen Lin, they stood up immediately.
After seeing the old professor's attitude towards Chen Lin, they immediately realized Chen Lin's identity.
It was the miraculous existence that the old professor talked about! When meeting such a mysterious boss, everyone immediately understood their respective identities very clearly.
After Chen Lin came in, he greeted everyone and was led to sit in front of the equipment.
"let's start!"
"Just say a few words first."
He pointed at the equipment in front of him, and someone in the distance immediately nodded, and a new round of Dwarf speaking began.
After a whole night and a whole morning of computer AI automatic analysis of the message brought back last night, the rough outline of the Dwarven language was finally deduced with the help of powerful computing power.
But it is still unknown whether this "probably" is Dwarf language and whether it can communicate with dwarves.
Chen Lin was invited here just to test this.
He put on the headphones, and then heard some obscure language coming from the microphone.
The mechanically synthesized voice sounded quite awkward, but it was still converted into some understandable language in Chen Lin's ears.
"It's Thursday, what should we do?"
"This is a special item we made. It's pretty and beautiful..."
Chen Lin could still understand the first sentence, but the next sentence instantly turned into gibberish.
He directly raised his hand to signal a pause.
"The sound is broadcast externally, and some parts are very problematic."
The old professor immediately motioned to those present to do as Chen Lin said.
"Hello, we are..."
Mechanical sounds were heard, and everyone had confused expressions on their faces.
This Dwarvish language itself is obscure and difficult to understand, but now that it has been converted to AI synthesis, it is even more like listening to an alien language.
But for Chen Lin, it was still within control.
"Well... I introduced myself quite completely, so there are basically no problems with this section."
He smiled and said to everyone: "The introduction was very clear about our identity, and also pointed out the differences from the Coman Empire, which is very good."
The old professor immediately looked at the assistant beside him.
The man raised the tablet towards the old professor. Sure enough, he saw that the text on it was basically consistent with what Chen Lin said.
"There is something wrong with this paragraph. The preface and the follow-up are not smooth. I can't even guess the meaning." "There is no problem with the date. It is very accurate."
"There is basically no problem with pronouns. It should be noted that the machine seems not to be able to distinguish the pronouns."
"There is something wrong with this passage. What is the word civilization mentioned in it? It is very novel..."
Chen Lin was sitting on the chair in front of the device, listening carefully to the synthesized speech while constantly correcting it.
Several staff members with a row of computers were quickly typing in what Chen Lin said.
The computer will constantly make corrections, but it usually requires a lot of calculations. At this time, Chen Lin directly helped, which saved a lot of tedious processes.
Everyone in the entire studio finally came to their senses at this time. They each found their jobs again and reorganized according to Chen Lin's corrections.
The Dwarf language deduced by the computer had been tested more than 100 times, and with the addition of Chen Lin, the test started again.
More than two hours later, the complete version of Dwarf was officially deduced.
Chen Lin took a sip of tea and moistened his dry throat.
He once again signaled the staff in front to start a new round of testing.
This time, the Dwarf language synthesized by AI showed an extremely professional level.
From the self-introduction at the beginning, to talking about the difference between himself and the humans of the Coman Empire, and then saying that he has no malicious intentions, he just wants to know more information about the entire world...
The whole process was smooth without even the slightest pause!
Chen Lin listened patiently to the sound of dwarf language echoing in the room. Everyone present held their breath for fear of affecting Chen Lin's work.
Five minutes later, after finishing his long speech, Chen Lin stood up and applauded.
“It’s very good. There wasn’t a single bad sentence or incomprehensible paragraph in the whole process!”
All the language experts in the room immediately applauded, and a few cheered twice.
The cheers lasted for more than ten seconds. Finally, with the wave from the old professor, the room finally became quiet.
"Try converting Chinese characters into dwarven language!"
"receive."
The staff who controlled the equipment in front immediately changed the program, and then the old professor spoke to the equipment.
He introduced himself by name, and the device translated into Dwarvish...
It's a pity that because the old professor's name contains a rare word, there was another problem with the Dwarf translation.
Chen Lin quickly pointed out this issue, and the old professor changed his explanation.
This time, the dwarven language was translated smoothly.
Several staff members started a small discussion about the issue of rare words.
I'm afraid this won't be handled for a while, but the entire device is already relatively complete, and there will be absolutely no problems when used for normal communication.
"It's basically a success."
The professor stepped forward and said to Chen Lin: "Young man, you are really helpful!"
Chen Lin smiled and nodded, without any hint of humility.
"This device can be used as a translator, right?"
He asked, and the old man in front of him smiled and responded: "That's for sure!"
"We are doing basic research here. If we figure it out here, our soldiers will benefit!"
"At that time, you only need to wear a translator, and you will be able to communicate with dwarves without any barriers... If other intelligent creatures are discovered in the future, these languages can be included in it."
That scene suddenly appeared in front of the old professor's eyes, "This will be of great help to us in another world!"
