Why does Oryx speak English?
Huh?

Space Magic.

As a young worm his parents didn't like him so they sent him/her to boarding school

1 ReplyI think a better question is why can oryx speak better English then 30% of the Destiny population on these forums.

I have a better question. "Why not?"
-
video game logic
-
Clearly there's alien versions of Rosetta Stone. Like jeez .-.

3 RepliesMost of the time in war you make an effort to understand the enemy's language. We're the d-bags for not learning hive, like what if they were trying to surrender or something.

Rosetta Stone? [spoiler]I hear it's pretty good software[/spoiler]
-
He paid £40 for "English lesson" DLC.

Universal translator. The tardis has one so I'd assume an interdimensional space god would have one as well
-
Good question. Thats why I liked skolas way better, since he never spoke anything else than the fallen language.
-
Because he can
-
He wants us to understand what he's saying before we kill him. Probably learned swear words first
-
2 RepliesMaybe Babel Fish?

2 RepliesBecause a worm got in our ear. [spoiler]+10 non-Internet points if you get it[/spoiler]
-
Eris taught him
-
Because subtitles to gutterly noises isnt a very immersive experience.
-
I think there is a book of sorrows entry that says he enjoys learning new languages.
-
So we can understand it while watching the cut scenes... Or would you have have him talking gibberish while you read subtitles

Maybe our ghost can directly "translate" Oryx directly to us? So even though we hear Oryx with his voice, the Ghost just converts his language to the one we are most accustomed to. The ghost also does know how to read most Hive markings.
-
My best guess Universal translator in your ghost probably the same reason all guardians understand each other We scanned the worlds grave which could allow us to learn there language
-
Let me straighten this out for ya, the Doctor is nearby, the tardis translates every alien language to english.
-
3 RepliesBecause, he has TAKEN our language!
-
So you can understand him. Go figure.
