Members Mr.Smith Posted July 28, 2005 Members Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 You take the "ay" out of each word, then you take the last letter and put it in front of each word...does that make any sense?..hmm i don't think i explained it right... ex: Estway Illyphay means "west philly" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerkot Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I dont think that is supposed to be like the most intelligent part ever in his songs, that part of the song is probably mostly there to be cool :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilsJim89 Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 if you think thats hard, someone try and translate "Somethin' Like Dis"...haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny 5 Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Thanks for the explanation Mr.Smith, I always wondered how that bit worked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shuga Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 its pig latin, yes, there is a proper name for it. basically, you use the first letter of a word and add "ay" to it and put it at the end of the word, for example, friends, would be riendsfay, cool?

Jazzy Julie Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 and if u have 2 continents at the end you have to move them to the front too for example Shuga in pig latin would be ugashay. Also if the word starts with a vowel u dont move the vowel u just put a yey at the end eg. and would be andyey. I hope that makes sence lol, i studied pig latin when i really needed to know what Will said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr.Smith Posted July 29, 2005 Members Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 I think some of the lyrics are wrong, because some of the words don't make sense when we try to translate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesSyde Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 most of it makes sense.... only the first couple of lyrics are wrong, but they're hard 2 understand. part of it doesn't translate out because tim didn't type it exactly right (ex. "invay" should been "eenbay" but they sound similar, innocent mistake). u really gotta use ur senses here and try 2 figure out what it could mean and what makes sense. i've got the correct translation here.. xcept 4 the first line which i still dont get. here's the translation: dump coly come back?? Big Will will stay ill with the track West Philly born and raised And it was crazy and blazed through the maze Been here for years still feels like the first day You wanna know in the worst way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr.Smith Posted July 29, 2005 Members Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Cool, Thanks! The 5th line finally makes sense now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
