'Jade Empire' for Xbox speaks language all its own | |
|
||
| Time: 17:08 EST/22:08 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Chris Castellaw | ||

The language Tho Fan sounds ancient and distinctly Asian. Its "sh" sounds come from the back of the throat, as they do in Chinese. Its "r" sounds are made with a tap of the tongue, echoing Mongolian. But Tho Fan comes from Canada and was invented only last year. Created in four months, for just over $2,000, it is a real language spoken by unreal people in the Xbox game "Jade Empire," released this week. Perhaps it is a sign that, these days, languages are not so much discovered as invented. | ||
