dude Abraxas i posted this in the spoiler discussion page too to see if more people will see it...i can't help you but i'm sure if enough people see it some one will be able too...

This is the file:



There must be someone around here who can translate that, right? I looked at it and I can't do it. I already have trouble telling the symbols apart, much less translate it. And I guess direct translation is not possible, anyway. No clue.

But I definitely want to know what is written on that file...

By the way, I can't believe that nobody brought this up so far...there are 834 threads on Hiro and time travel in general, but nobody cares about this clearly readable file?
If nobody can translate it, that is another thing.

And there's more...the shirt Sanjog is wearing? It's riddled with those same symbols...is something actually written all over the boy?
That would be something.

Here is the photo:



Well?

I've been trying to work on it. I can't match anything in Sanskrit, I've got one or two characters from Hindi (well, one possible), only another 20 Indian languages to go

I can say it's not Urdu, or Gujarati, they use a different alphabet. It might be Sanskrit, Hindi, Pujabi, Bengali, probably some others...

(I admit I don't know much about the languages, I used to know some Indian teachers who'd be able to help but not any more.)

I'll let you know.

(Thank God its a very small word is all I can say )

The page in the file looks like an expenses form or something like that? It might say "accounts" LOL

Yeah, it might. And then I'd be ****** off.
Seriously, it might be just that simple. Because those really look like expenses...hahahar!

OddEye:
Spoilers? But this is not a spoiler. It's taken from the episode. Unless that's not what you are saying.

I think he just means it might get more exposure in the spoilers section as well.

You hit it right on the head Lurk...I've just seen alot of things like this posted in the Spoiler section...that is where i ask most of my questions because most of the answers are spoilers...

No, why should those be spoilers? Everything you can deduce from clues in the show, riddles and stuff, is not a spoiler. If people post that stuff in spoilers I might have missed a lot...but I can't go looking there, it's too dangerous.

lol...I have been yelled at by someone about answering a question that was to spoilerific...if some one answers me there i will make sure to post it here...

spoilers = stuff you know about future episodes, no matter where you got it from

I have seen you use spoilers, yes...
But it was in theories and they allow to do that here. Although you could use a warning to be nice. It wasn't that bad, though.

I would almost think that LurkNoMore was right, but the file has a yellow stripe. Not that Chandra couldn't use them anyway...but let's hope it's something interesting.

file has some random numbers written inside it.. nothin sanskrit.. or hindi.. or any other indian language...
the folder though has an odd name... its devanagari script... but has no meaning..
and the writing on child's shirt says "praise be to lord ram... praise be to lord krishna" (ram and krishna are hindu gods)

the file says chubtara..
his shirts says hare rama, hare krishna..
just praises indian gods

Cool thanks.

no problem..
im trying to figure out what chubtra / chubtara can mean..
it makes no sense as a hindi word..
chub means "poke" or "itchy"..tra im not sure of

That is an amazing file pictuer abrax...:Applaud:

Oh btw what about this one:



From HERO's analysis of Chandra's notebook.
http://www.9thwonders.com/boards/index.php...ost&p=36788

damn I know someone who knows Indians but she is incommunicado at the moment ill put her on it if i can get a hold of her.

No meaning? You mean it's just gibberish?

Thanks for the translation of the shirt! Heh.


Oh no, that isn't mine...credit goes to Heroes-TV, like it says.

But I have a similar one I could have put up. It came out a little clearer so that you can read the "...sentience" (I believe that to read Hypersentience, btw) on that blue folder a bit better. But not worth the effort to put it up here as well.

that says nirala.. can be a name..literal translation means unique

Damn Abraxas is now the best Santana album and the hardest working Heroes fan on the net lol.

Keep up the good work.

its not sanskrit.

yup.. it is...
I think it is really funny that writers have shown all the documents to be in "Hindi"... Actually very few people in southern India (thats where chandra is from) can speak, read or write hindi..

Seems like he (The doctor) had tabs on the powers, maybe not on the people. I think Maybe he's got knowledge on how to activate these powers.

As for the writing, maybe there's a whole heroes language.

Doubt it sorry.

It's not inconceivable that Chandra has some sort of personal code for research notes etc, but it seems unlikely. Most files are written in English and I would have expected Mohinder to mention the fact that he can't read some things because it is in code...

clearly someone has a unique foot, from "the little brown book"

which i henceforth dub to myself as the LBB. has that been coined? if not, i so call E-copyright!


well... ya.

i'm no linguist, but it looks like someone mashed together a few Kanji and played it off as Indian. But none the less, its a very pretty way of writtng gibberish.

x_x

humor edit:

clearly chandra was keeping track of all of his subject's tax returns! A-HA. the conspiracy deepens!

that's like saying that something is written in the latin alphabet... but it's not english.

Couldn't it be the name of a power? I mean, if my father reads somewhere "Pyrokinesis" he'll say that's just gibberish, maybe "chubtra" is such a word?

I think chubtara is devanagari script for "save the cheerleader save the world"

I can say with confidence that there is no word like "chubtra" in sanskrit or hindi ...

Must be the name of his accountant then

I'm still not convinced that file-name is written in devanagri script; if it is, it's a little unusual font-wise. *shrug* It's certainly not Tamil, or Sinhala, or Gurmukhi.

*runs off to dig through dictionaries*

Sorry, I have no clue about all those languages.
I picked it up somewhere on this board and assumed everything will be in Sanskrit. It might as well be hieroglyphs for me.
What if it IS hieroglyphs?
Reminds me of something.

unique could refer to "patient zero" ?
