Does Jorge call Dr. Hasely MOM or say MA'AM?

I read on wiki that spartan IIs see her as a 'mother figure' Jorge is a spartan II... I can't figure out if he is calling her mom or saying ma'm

  • Was this confirmed by vague speculation on facts stripped from a Wiki, or from the actual Narrative Director and Story-Board Designer?[/quote] halseys journal that came with limited and legendary editions

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] INCINERATION Haha, yeah it's fun. I'm picking it up though, because I have a student who sits next to me who also doesn't know all the basics so we learn together. Working on For-Each loop pretty soon. I have to create an ArrayList of 100 doubles though, so if I may ask a quick question, do I type it like this: ArrayList list=new ArrayList[100]; Is that semi correct? Assuming you know how to create an ArrayList of course. Sorry about being off topic. :/ EDIT: Nevermind. I figured it out. I believe it's: ArrayList list=new ArrayList(100);[/quote] Glad you got it. We're only in our 7th or so week and just started booleans, haha. We're not quite there yet. Anyway, enjoy CS2, I'm off to bed, night!

Or can I watch the commentary with my silver account?[/quote]To tell you the truth, I have no idea. I guess it's worth a try at any rate.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Leiser Jager Firstly, it's Ma'am guys, it is an abbreviation of the word madam. It is sometimes pronounced 'marm', which is probably confusing most people. Secondly, the idea that he calls Dr. Halsey Mum (Mom), because she's a mother figure, is ridiculous. Someone holding someone in this regard would not openly call them Mum (Mom). Lastly, the guy who says "the subtitles are wrong and they're not proof enough" is being arrogent and close-minded.[/quote] Also, it doesn't even fit the scene or the character.

It's also a synonym for "mam," which perhaps you're confusing for "ma'am." But "mam" is just another synonym for mother as well. From the Merriam-Webster online dictionary in the definition for mum: "chiefly British variant of mom." From Wiktionary.org: "Alternative form of mam, or an abbreviation of mummy. Compare mom, mama."

I watched the video not but 30 minutes ago and they, the people who made the game, clearly stated that he said Ma'am, which is why it's in the subtitles. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Also, he speaks with a Hungarian accent, not British. [Edited on 09.27.2010 11:10 PM PDT]

  • I think the Journal was pretty clear. Dr Halsey stated multiple times that all of the Spartans II were developed from her DNA and were her clones. She talked about this many times. She even said that it was difficult to explain to them that they were her clone, she then described her self as their (the Spartans) "Mother".
