sorry...its only half of what this topic is about. i just wanted to get you in the mood for this thread by thinking of the middle east! (you'll see)
this was going to be called arabian bots...but it dosnt sound as good...
...anyway here we go:
WHO WANTS TO KNOW WHAT BWARRIOR NAMES LOOKED LIKE IN ARABIC?!
Its mainly phonetics (sp???) ie how it sounds, but this is what i had to endure through most of my bw-watching career!
(subtitles in arabic at the botto of the screen)hopefully this will work (and just so you know, it is read from right to left and therefore should be on the right and side of the page, but this wont do it so hatever here they are anyway...):
راتراب = Rattrap
شيتؤر = Cheetor
تايغاترؤن = Tigatron
أير رازر = Air Razor
راينؤفس = Rhinox
دينؤبؤت = Dinobot

دبث شارج = Depth Charge
تايغرهاق = Tigerhawk
مغاترؤن = Megatron

سقربناق = Scorpinok

just keep in mind that arabis is a little strange to foreigners. they have no letter for 'p'...there for it is pronounced oBtimus, BeBsi, ramBage etc...i know i know wierd
if anyone would lie me to do anything else (phonetically or not) just say so in this thread! its always a bit of fun! (good thing i didnt throw away m tacky little eng - arabic dictionary! i didnt need it after i dropped arabic for foeigners in yr 10 (praise Primus!)
