“Why so violent, hatchling?”
“You trained me to be violent.”
“All of nature carries violence inside it. But we trained you to be noble. Always remember that the duty of a noble warrior is toward peace."

For the translation on this page, I had the pleasure of working with href="chozodian.tumblr.com/ ">Chozodian |
“ṭí ṣai'k'pitú petra'ṛā́, e'itsu'šhilu?”
“ecoṣeγó'ṣā ṭí γá petra.”
“nno-nełłērr ōŋ'γłeila'k petrā. ecoṣeγó'ṣā'kar γá ṭí aṛ. o'iłeneḍč'dzú tor'ṣa'i'khxte'pētor-ska'aṛ'k ūli'ni.”
Which can then be translated back into English if you’re bilingual in a language that doesn’t exist, like a madlad.

Anyway, yeah, his whole project is super creative and cool, and I’m honored to have been a part of it. So. Yeah. Chozodian. Check him out.

Before you all start squawking, I am aware that Dread, which came out like a week ago, also prominently featured Chozo speaking aloud in places. However, the conlang they used in the game sounded very humanoid, and from what I can tell from what’s been translated of it so far, it has pretty similar syntax to our own. Plus, the sum total of what we know of it is what we hear in-game, which isn't a whole lot. Thus, in my eyes, Chozodian’s version is a lot more creative, interesting, and complete, and, of course, he was the one who did it first, soooooo I'm sorry Nintendo, you were just too slow, KaCHOw.
