[FR] Des bonnes bases pour découvrir les Intakis

Pour découvrir les Intakis, de nombreuses ressources sont disponibles dans les nombreuses bibliothèques de New Eden.

La base officielle est sur Evelopedia.

Voici quelques pages à lire en moins de quelques heures (quand même).

Sur les forums de EveOnline, un vieux post qui montre l'évolution depuis plusieurs années et les premières recherches universitaires, devenues depuis des références officielles.

Sur le forum de l'ILF (Intaki Liberation Front), 13 pages passionnantes sur le MCI ou Modern Classical Intaki, pour apprendre à parler et à écrire.

Sur Eve-MP, le forum dédié des Mondes Persistants, une simple recherche sur le mot "intaki" vous donnera les communiqués de presse traduits. Comme celui sur le succès commercial de l'ILF.

Sur JoL-Eve, je n'ai hélas pas trouvé grand chose. Infos bienvenues.

[EN] Gopal Beram Idama, poet, Ramataki writer

Universally acclaimed and accepted as the first among Intaki poets, Gopal Beram Idama was the first to discover a metrical expression of epic dimension and vision to match the emotional ecstasy of the story of Rama.
According to a legend, Gopal Beram Idama was a robber who one day met a hermit who transformed him to a virtuous being. Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom was believed to have assured the sage to stand by his side and guide him to visualize the events of Ramataki, and eulogize them with epic dignity and secular simplicity.

[EN] Do you speak frallente ?

Frallente is an idiom specific to the Gallente Federation. Rooted in ancient languages used in Tau Ceti, it is a varying combination of these languages. No rules are written and we still await for a comprehensive study of frallente.

Until then, this blog will help you to familiarize with this fantastic idiom, way of talking and way of life.

For example, an alternate to the worlwide "fly safe" signature would be "bon vol" in frallente.

Using frallente makes you feel more Gallente !

[EN] Pirate or Corsaire ?

New Eden is a hard place to live in, and if you are no predator, then you are a prey (or both at the same time).

But which predator are we speaking of ? Pirate, Corsaire or Flibustier ?

Discover the differences and if you are on the predator side, then feel free to proudly claim one of those titles as yours.

Pirate
(ancient "peiratès" "the one who seeks fortune") works for nobody but him, an outlaw sailing space, plundering, raping and often killing without distinction of faction.

Corsair or Corsaire in frallente
("privateer") acts on behalf of a factionnal leader (king, CEO, Emperor, alliance leader...) ; he owns a lettre de marque (a letter of mark) which allows him to attack the ennemies of the faction. He is more like a mercenary patriot. Should he be captured, he won't be hang like a simple pirate but rather treated like a prisoner of war.

Freebooter or Flibustier in frallente
(ancient "vrijbuiter") is a gallente corsair fighting against the Caldari during the war.

Whatever, being a pirate or a corsair does not mean you must be rude. Salute your future victim with a classical "Bonjour Monsieur (or Madame), please surrender your ship" and end it with a "Merci pour ce combat" ("thanks for this fight", or shorter "GG").

[EN] Proud of your future intaki character and looking for a name ?

Giving a name to your character is the first and most important task to do. A name is forever. The name stays with the character through the rest of his/her life. Many believe that names have a significant effect on the child's development and personality. Some people believe that speaking negative creates negative energy and speaking positive creates a positive energy around the person. Since every name has a meaning , by taking the name of a child for years it will develop their personality traits according to the meaning for that name.
Here is a list of typical intaki names for your intaki characters.
Classical intaki V families should choose among "traditionnal", or "sanskrit" categories.
Other intaki colonies families should choose among other categories ; may be should we assign categories to colonies ? Like Kashmiri name should reveal a capsuleer as being from Ostingele 7 ?Feel free to comment about that.

[FR] La planète mère

Intaki 5
(Viriette, Placid)

Planète tropicale, d'une exceptionnelle beauté naturelle.
(sec.status de 0.1 quand même...)

D'après Vremaja Idama qui la décrit ainsi :
"Intaki 5 est un bijou. Elle est tropicale avec une faune et une flore exhubérante. (...) Je suis né à Asara, au pied des monts Akat, qui marquent la limite équatoriale de l'hémisphère nord. Asara se protège du soleil, nichée dans les profondes vallées des monts Akat. Intaki 5 est très chaude ; les régions polaires (autrefois couvertes de forêts tropicales) sont séparées par des océans équatoriaux encore plus chauds. Il est très difficile de survivre autour de l'équateur (...)."


source evelopedia
"Intaki V is a jewel among planets. It is tropical and filled with diverse lifeforms. We have lived and grown on this planet for time beyond measure.
I was born in the town of Asaya, sitting at the base of the Akat mountain range. These mountains mark the southern end of the habitable region of the north pole. My town was hidden from the harsh sunlight in the deep valleys that intersect the mountain range. Intaki V is a very hot world, and both polar regions were once thick with tropical forests. The equatorial oceans are exceedingly hot, and few living things survive around the equator. The rich and varied life of Intaki V has been confined to the polar regions, and in constant struggle for land, food, and shelter from the environment." 

[FR] Les traits "ethniques"

Alors de ce que j'en sais, les Intakis c'est des noobs et ils kiffent les Subway.
Korben

Méthodique et réservé, tient sa langue, évite les confrontations.
Les maisons intakis sont tranquilles et sereines.
Un intaki controle ses émotions et garde son calme, même dans la tempête.
Les femmes intakies sont calmes et contemplatives. Elles se déplacent sans faire de vague.

De nombreux artistes contemporains sont intakis ou d'inspiration intaki, beaucoup sont des femmes intakis.


source evelopedia
The Intaki male is methodical and reserved, never outspoken or confrontational. He generally enjoys quiet reflection, and Intaki homes are traditionally places of peace and tranquility. The typical Intaki has absolute control over his emotions and is able to remain calm even under the most trying circumstances.

Like their male counterparts, Intaki females are quiet and contemplative, moving through the world seemingly without making a ripple. Yet their contemplative manner often embraces great beauty through both physical and literary arts. A great number of the universe's most notable contemporary artists are of Intaki heritage, and among them a disproportionately large number are female. 

[EN] To start with

This blog will be written in english [EN] and/or in french [FR], depending on the subject. Some posts should be reposted in the other language.
3 topics

1. Intaki culture
2. Gallente language
3. Ramataki

Intaki culture is not vvery well known, therefore we will make you discover its unknown treasures. We shall try to translate or interpret some texts of interest, for our young intakis out of the diaspora, looking for their identities.

Gallente language will be studied within its frallente idiom, or fr-gallente. The point is to explain common forms of frallente to engallente users (or en-gallente) willing to better use frallente. Those posts should be written mostly in [EN].

And there comes the bigger part

Ramataki. Here is a true university project, started at CAS (Center for Advanced Studies).
We want to exhume the Ramayana intaki, a treasure for intaki literature, and make it available to our fellow intakis, so that they can make it theirs. We will start a series of posts to establish the steps of the project ; it should take years.

Thanks for being already there, reading this modest blog.

PS : and feel free to help me with my engallente...

[FR] Pour commencer

[EN] translation will follow

Ce blog sera rédigé en français [FR] et/ou en anglais [EN] selon les posts. Certains seront répliqués dans l'autre langue.
3 thèmes principaux :

1. la culture intaki
2. la langue gallente
3. le Ramataki

La culture intaki est méconnue, nous nous attacherons donc à la faire connaitre mieux, en vous faisant découvrir ses trésors cachés. Nous tenterons également de traduire ou d'interpréter les textes en langues étrangères, à destination des jeunes intaki de la diaspora en recherche d'identité.

La lanque gallente sera étudiée ici sous son idiome frallente, ou fr-gallente. Le but est d'expliquer les formes courantes du frallente aux locuteurs d'engallente (ou en-gallente) qui désirent mieux utiliser le frallente. La majorité de ces posts se feront donc en [EN].

Enfin, le plus gros morceau

Le Ramataki. C'est une véritable projet universitaire, entamé au CAS (Center for Advanced Studies).
Nous voulons exhumer le Ramayana intaki, un trésor de littérature intaki et le mettre à disposition de nos congénères afin qu'ils se le réapproprient. Nous entamerons une série de posts pour établir les étapes du projet qui prendra probablement plusieurs années.

Merci d'être déjà là à lire ce modeste blog.
