I can confiim that this phrase has a meaning and it is from a language which is spoken today in a very small part of the world and the pronunciation ingame is wrong (probably on purpose). Maybe you can figure it out before i reveal it. I never knew that this was a mystery and i was so surprised to hear it ingame back in the days, considering that we are a very small amount of people speaking the language.

I like this idea. Verbs in Spanish are conjugated depending on who the sentence is directed towards. So the literal "conserva" in Spanish would be translated to "he preserves". Assuming the "Oh" to mean you, the ending could be something like: "..but he doesn't preserve/protect you".

They've had multiple run ins with the white legs, who's to say that Salt Upon Wounds hadn't said "what are you to Ceasar?" to Joshua at New Canaan? Quoting a man's own words at him would be a hell of a move.

[@guardianofthehill]

This is only loosely related to the actual topic of the video, but as a German man, the phrase "Shih finn deh deer" is fascinating to me. Seems like "Ich finde dich" meaning "I will find you", only the "dich" is replaced with "dir" , another word for you, but in a different grammatical context. So, either the devs accidentally messed up the translation, or they purposefully messed it up to better depict a hybrid language's shift from its parent languages after 200 years of linguistic isolation. Which would be so absurdly cool

[@retroftw4644]

I doubt its on purpose.but it wont hurt for you to believe it so go for it.

[@saberwing753]

If you think that’s cool, the dead horse greeting “ya a tag” (not sure about spelling but that’s how it sounds) is a combination of “ya’at’teh” (Navajo for hello, basically) and gutentag !

[@codyweidman4742]

Actually, that probably is switched on purpose, they do that at least one other place in the game that I know When you get that Latin quote from Arcade, he mixes up the latin words for 'Sun' and 'Son' in the phrase "There is nothing new under the sun" Which I'm pretty sure is a purposeful reference to his back story with his father, and how he eventually follows in his foot steps. So yeah, they probably did switch it on purpose, to also show how messy language gets over time

[@colddaze6680]

@@saberwing753 That's cool, and makes sense. I thought I recognised the 'tag' bit as 'tag' on its own is the informal of 'guten tag' . Did not have a clue about the Navajo greeting, learn something new everyday.

[@Bister_Mungle]

Meh, it was artificially imposed by developers for game design reasons rather than being based on what would be the actual natural and logical progression. The Sorrows have a conlang even though they're descended from a group of literate children who were raised in some sort of facility, "The Survivalist" Randall Clark even went so far as to give them textbooks on science, medicine and the like to help them survive. The notion that they, a group of literate people who should value and preserve that literacy, would turn into backwards illiterate tribals is a transformation that goes unexplained in-universe and can only be explained by the game design necessity that they had to become rock-banging tribals afraid of caves and wooden shacks in order to let the contents of those caves lie undisturbed for the player to recover. The Dead Horses are, to me, an arguably worse example because their conlang is a combination of German and Diné, the Navajo language. Why is it worse? The game and DLC director Josh Sawyer is a noted Germanophile; the logical outcome of the Navajo Nation sheltering a few German tourists in the aftermath of nuclear war is not that the Navajo identity and language would be subsumed by the German tourists', but vice versa. Though almost certainly unintentional, there is a very Euro-centric, colonial "white man's burden" sort of mindset baked into the idea that us Navajos could be so incompetent and so fragile in our cultural identity that we'd need German tourists to guide us through the new post-nuclear world. It's absolutely bonkers too, considering the fact that we're the largest tribe with a population close to 400,000; not to mention we've survived through many pandemics and ethnic cleansings(with the most recent one being in the 1970s) while still maintaining our language, culture, and oral history. Our rez is also in one of the most desolate and uninhabitable areas in the US and we already live in third world conditions without running water, electricity, etc. Just the notion that a tribe with a strong cultural/ethnic identity and oral tradition who managed to survive the war would see their language and culture subsumed by the German of a few tourists they deigned to shelter is just maddening to me as a native. The Navajo Nation's population in 2016 was 356,890. Germany was one of the nations devastated by the Resource Wars in the Fallout universe. The notion that German tourists could equal or outnumber us Navajos in the Navajo Nation is not just implausible, but ridiculous. Any German who would be capable of engaging in international tourism in the 2070s would have to be extraordinarily affluent, and that, combined with the fact that Germany is nothing like the American Southwest, precludes the notion that said German tourists could be such outstanding experts at desert survival that the local Navajo people would turn to them for guidance rather than vice versa. And I've already seen people make the bad argument "the germans are, of course, much more advanced than any native americans so, naturally, they became more influential to the post-war Navajo Nation to the degree that the Navajo now ceased to identify as Navajo," which is just dripping with white-supremacist overtones and ignorance. The fundamental basis of the Dead Horses is really just an excuse for Josh Sawyer to make up a conlang combining one language he's familiar with (German) with one he's not (Diné bizaad.) Today about 100,000 members of the Navajo Nation speak Diné bizaad; we're one of, if not the largest extant indigenous societies left in North America. Despite the US military and BIA actively trying to destroy our cultural identity, language, etc. for over a century, we've survived with far more intact than most indigenous people. The notion that we Navajo, of all people, would forget ourselves when Bostonians are running aroung dressed like colonial militia and Brotherhood of Steel are, in House's words, "gallivanting around the Mojave like knights of yore," despite being less connected to those histories and cultures than us Navajo are to our own carries a shitload of racist baggage.

"Ceaser cannot save you now" is definitely a good translation too

[@NemFX]

The best literal translation is "As god as my witness, none of you will be spared" i prefered the fan version "remember what happened at the conservatory" which would have been a reference to Van Buren.

[@Ninja1Ninja2]

fallout 3 and new vegas are all one big reference to van buren. fallout 3 took the outline of the game plot and new vegas took the deeper backstory.

[@t0ri178]

So what happened at the conservatory?

[@akumu9188]

@@t0ri178 I think the conservatory is supposed to be the Nursery from Van buren. Not to go deep into Van buren lore but the Nursery is a place that's connected to the twin mothers tribe. In the canon lore, the twin mothers where destroyed and the only thing that remained of them was the knowledge of how to make bitter root as stated by Ulysses. So basically he's saying that your people are going to be massacred just like the twin mothers.

[@DISTurbedwaffle918]

How about "Caesar cannot save you now." Kale for Caesar Watcha as a sort of "to be able" Nei being the negative Conserva being just a borrowing from Spanish/Latin (it's essentially the same word) for save Oh being Now. The you is implied by context, though you could also omit the "now" and have it mean "you" instead; in that case, "Caesar cannot save you." This can also loop into the fact that the White Legs probably subscribe to the deification of Caesar, so this is the triumph of Joshua's true God over the false god that is Caesar.

Conservar its the infinitive verbal form of the noun conserva: Conservar: Yo- conservo Tu- conservas El- Conserva Nosotros- Conservamos Vosotros- conservais Ellos- conservan But Conserva could be the third form of that verb: El conserva making allusion to: God conserving the soul or something. Conserva without any context as noun it means literally: Tin can with food, basically any food that last extremely long on a closed tin can its what we call: Conserva, Conservas... lata de Conservas (lata means tin can) . I I think that Mr Joshua its not speaking about tomato soup so probably the word Conservar or conserva its an allusion to that thing. Conservar has another meanings like: Proteger, Mantener... cuidar... " To protect, maintain... or to have something. We had a saying wich was: Que Dios te conserve en su Gloria. It's difficult to literally translate this to English but it should be something like: May God Have you in his glory As a kind of: you would not be forgotten by god both in body and spirit. So according to this maybe it was a kind of Farewell kind of: May God remembers you and saves your soul, because I will not (according to how Joshua is). When you began to mix languages weird things can happen, even one language by itself its complex: Spanish: Pollo= Chicken Polla= should mean chicken but means cock Now gave me a favour and never insult somebody saying: Eat my chicken ever again! Please its weird.

I actually really like this translation. It fits a lot of the lore, given Josh’s character, and what we know about the White Legs, trying to make themselves look better to the Legion. In a way it’s a really good insult that would really mess with someone like Salt Upon Wounds, since not only had he utterly failed, but now had to think about what the mighty Caesar would think of him, now begging for mercy. One last metaphorical eff you, before the final judgement call.

[@patrickmurray2662]

I think it’s awesome that you even took a crack at this, thank you. I figure that if it’s a combination of three languages, there’s likely one language out of the three that gives us the syntax and grammar while the other two are folded into its vocabulary. Also, we can infer from Graham that what he said was meant to terrify Salt-upon-wounds, as he said it in his native tongue right before the moment he planned to execute him. ADDITIONALLY, I want to point out the brilliant writing of this game and character: Before he was literally anything else in the history books, Joshua Graham was a prodigious linguist who specialized in tribal dialects. I love that he confidently spoke directly to his enemy in his own language, which is probably something that would add to the aura of his superiority while having routes in his innocent origins, much like how this talent of Graham’s is directly responsible for him becoming Caesar’s second in command.

[@Myaskill]

Considering the similarities to norwegian in some words, it could be that "nei" is a slightly misunderstood word from his side, a common error for those new to norwegian. In that case the word that was meant to be used would be "ikke", which means "not". Similarly "kale" sounds to me like "kalle"; "to call/name", as in "you keep calling him Ceasar".

[@microsofttechsupport1912]

Damn bro this translation definitely makes sense specially the “who are you to ceasar” givin his lore with the legion

[@keithrogers589]

It is "twisted hairs" taught by ulysses to the white legs. It means "what are you to Ceaser?" It fits into the cult of mars in which the individual has no value to the state. Your only value is what you can do for the state, either as an instrument of war, or production. Joshua said the only use for salt upon wounds is as a sacrifice so quotes the core belief of the cult of mars back at him to add insult to injury.

[@UlyssesCrab]

Joshua is Mormon. I think you’re probably correct with your assertion of Watcha being Watcher/God. I feel like he’s saying something like “Go before God to preserve your soul.” Essentially telling Salt Upon Wounds that “Now God will judge your {his} actions.”

[@tsusci]

2:17 In Spanish, words are conjugated depending on what the context is to fit who/what you're talking about. "Conservar" literally means "(To) conserve", but if you're talking about someone conserving something, it could be "Conserva". Like if you wanted to say "he conserves the (item he's conserving)" you'd drop the R and write it as "él conserva el/la/los/las...", followed by the item(s) you're referring to. I conserve -> (yo) conservo. They all conserve -> (ellos) conservan, and so on.
