Help with translation


Hi there,

I'm working on a Czech translation of subtitles for Darkplace. I encoutered a little problem while translating the episode "Apes of Wrath" - lines of the apeloid to be specific.

Do the words "Yaven", "namato" and "quillababno" mean anything at all?

Thanks emoticon

As in the things the ape-man says? No, they're nonsense words as far as I can tell. Typical of Noel Fielding, the man in the ape suit

surely it's 'collomandoooah' if anything.

They have no meaning, they are merely the mutterings of an apeloid.

Yes you'd translate that as something like "Magical sounding nonsense" "Or nonsensical incantations", I suppose.
