I just want to say that the word "UNGGOY" for Grunts means "MONKEY" where I came from... PHILIPPINES! ... anyway... while wathcing the collectors edition from HALO 2, theres a Character Designer there that is Asian and looks like she's from Philippines..and I'm pretty sure she's the one who came up with the name"UNGGOY". And you can tell the similarities between a monkey and a grunt... am I right?!
Well, I'm pretty sure that i'll get some FLAMERS comment about this topic... I dont care....BUT PLEASE NO RACIAL COMMENT AIIGHT?!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] R4Z0RS 3DG3 interesting find...*RANDOM FLAMES!* haha jk. now if someone could find out where sanghelli comes from, that would be awesome.[/quote] well, in the collector's edition booklet, it says that the sangheili come from a star system called sanghelios, which literally means "blood sun." Or a red star which would be an older star near the end of its lifetime either as a supernova or neutron star. so in conclusion, the elites/sangheili are named for the star system they come from...nothing more

Isn't it kind of obvious that they did this on purpose? Also, when Halo first came out, my friend and I (who are both Filipino) used to call the Grunts monkeys. Funny coincidence.
