Unga to English - a field guide

Post by Hughgent » 18 Oct 2018, 15:56

I've done my best to figure out what people are saying during briefing. As every marine seems to suffer from some form of mental damage directly from the cryosleep caskets.

Thus I present my own findings on the language of the unga.
  • Yunga = Yes, Affirmative, OK, Will Do.
  • Nunga = No, Nuh uh, Fuck You, Can't.
  • Unga Dunga = I hear you, I understand.
  • UNGA DUNGA! = this situation is something I enjoy.
  • UNNNGAAAAA = O! How does one truely know the soft dream of man's dark path? Is it by what he has? Nay. What he wants? No. It is not until he beholds one, a man who knows not what he is, but only who he needs be.
  • Dunga = That task is complete, It's done,
  • Unga Dunga? = What? I don't understand.

Unga Bunga: i question the morality/survivability/advisability of this order
Nunga Bunga: no shit sherlock
Bunga Nunga?: Your kidding right?
Bunga Nunga!: Bullshit!
Bonga: that is an explosion over there.
Bonga!: Watch where youre throwing that grenade!
BONGA!: OW MOTHERFUCKER WHY DID YOU BLOW ME UP?
Tunga: shooting, shoot, shot, gunshot
Toonga: shooting, gunshots, dakka
NUNGA TUNGA HUNGA!: WATCH YOUR FIRE, NICE FF ASSHOLE
Hunga: over here.
BONGA HUNGA!: DANGER CLOSE, BLOW THIS UP

Much of this is extrapolation from context clues and already known words. This may not be entirely accurate, and may require more observation to confirm certain phrases.

No no, Unga is A Almayer God, when we say it it's mostly a war cry.
