[Text] There is such a thing as too many questions

[4_toteachus]

[Guys you better brace yourselves because Four isn't holding back at ALL.]

Languages are an important part of society, whatever society that may be, and is always fascinating to study. I know that translators largely make it possible for us to communicate with each other regardless of the language we currently speak... or in my case, write. I have a large appreciation for spoken word and how words, ideas, and memories look like when written in different languages.

So what I want to know is: What language does everyone usually speak? I currently communicate in what humans call 'German', though I will switch between English and Arabic from time to time. I prefer not to use English too often though, it is not the most reliable language of the ones I know.

For Cybertronians: Are there different kinds of Cybertronian languages like there are different kinds of Earth languages? If there are, how and why do they differ?

Another couple of questions for Cybertronians:

Why do some of you have noses while others don't?

How does gender work for your kind?

How do you see while you are transformed?

Look I made a smile!

I learned English and a bit of japanese when I was in earth and many others languages from all around the galaxy although it would take me too much time to name them all. [If something takes Blurr 'too much time' then you know it's a long list.] Where I come from there's modern and ancient Cybertronian the actual language is the same for Autobots and Decepticons but the writing language differs THAT started during the Great War as a way to make sure one group couldn't decipher communications made by the opposite faction so ^easily.

I believe our physicals differences are due to fact we belong to different universes rather than a real use for said noses WE DO NOT breath like organics do.

Define gender please.

Our ability to see and ^analyze the surroundings it's different from mech to mech and it va-ri-es with the alt-mode as well but we all use SENSORS of some sort.

Nice...smile. I learned those in Earth too thanks to wifi.

I wonder why Japanese is so popular.

It seems to be a common theme among the universes where Cybertronians exist. You all speak the same language, but write differently. It's rather interesting, I wonder why that is? Why is there a divide between Autobots and Decepticons in your world? I take it that the Decepticons are the 'bad' guys?

[While Four may be a bit new to life in general, he isn't so naive as to assume that everything is split up between 'good' and 'bad'. He's aware that shades of grey exist between these two extremes and he treads around it as carefully as he can.]

Gender is one's sexual identity. Among humans what your gender is defines what you do, how people look at you, and it defines who you are. At least that is my observation.

:D

Perhaps the lambda have a liking to it and that's why it drag people here who can speak it.

Curious indeed. What about your people? DO little doll creatures have their own style of writing aside from German English and Arabic?

Factions are good or bad according to who you ask but once thing is true AUTOBOTS try to respect and protect lives at all cost while DECEPTICONS don't really care about who they have to crush to get what they want.

[That it's really appreciated, Four.]

Ah I see then NO my people doesn't use that term or have gender roles although some mechs are more comfortable using an specific designation such as 'HE' 'SHE' or even 'IT' than others according to their frame model. My kind lacks of the physical attributes that would help you to categorize an organic individual like humans as 'FEMALE' or 'MALE' nor we can reproduce the same way do.

How do you refer to yourself? I can't see anything that could categorize you as male or female either if we use human standards.

Heh...

Style of writing? No we've adopted human writing. I suppose with time we would adopt our own eventually, but currently we are only about 5 years old, and the human race has only been extinct for 5 years.

Autobots and Decepticons... interesting. I will have to gather more information on that.

[Wait... we're talking about Four now? Four's realizes he's never thought about gender in terms to himself before...]

Technically we're all genderless, though 7 prefers to be called a she, and she sounds like one too. I'm called a he because that's what everyone says I am.

I could be a she I suppose if I wanted to.

:)

Wait wait wait...the human race has been extinct? How did that happen?

I am not sure if NEUTRALS had their own style of writing you might have to _ask Wing that.

[Blurr likes gathering data too.]

I would call you what you wanted.

:P
