Go there, so this all isn't also lost in 35 pages.
You will read somewhere that all writing has to do with one's genitals. Don't dwell on this. It will make you nervous.

Graecum
est
non
potest
legi

that's the name of the folder backwards, figured since the capital was last that it should be reversed. Anyway it's either another language or an anagram.

Graecum is not power to collect

This is the translation.

That's where, "It's all Greek to me," comes from.

Theta

Post by EdWont »

Hi everyone.
I'm half Greek, so maybe I can be of some use, finally. So far, I've only been stumbling around since I'm new to this whole thing.

I don't know if anyone's already translated "semantikos" but it means "important" or "significant."

I've tried to decode Tachyon's message from Hex, but I'm not getting anything. As for the discussion of Theta, has anyone considered the link to the word "Thelima?" It struck me when I first got into LG that Thelima was written, in Greek and begining with theta, at the bottom of the video page. Somebody mentioned Poseidon, and, with respect to that, it could mean "thalasa" or "sea." It could also mean "Theseus" who, according to Homer's epic, blinded Poseidon's son, the cyclops. The cyclops, as we all know, has one eye. I only mention this because the eye seems to be a reoccuring theme with the watchers, the eye of Ra, and so forth. Hope at least some of this was of help.

Best of luck.

Well I sure am glad I listened to everyone who told me that Xs are always numbers and ys always letters. :roll:
