If an Alien Came Up To You
« on: November 30, 2006, 10:42:43 PM »
If a real honest to goodness alien from outer space landed and came up to you and being super brilliant could translate its advanced knowledge into understanding and speaking your language ...

what do you think the alien's first words to you would be?

Interesting thoughts, but remember, this alien understands and speaks in your language.

Maybe we should dispense with prevailng wisdom, e.g.,

Do you know the way to San Jose?
Take me to your leader
Greetings Earthling
Hi, I'm Bob
I come for Earth women
Hello Jung lover
Keep your hands where I can see them
Freeze right there
Don't make any sudden moves

Seriously, what do you think an alien fluent in your language would say?

Alien in its natural form, or looks like us?  Probably would ask directions if they looked like us.  May have a map in hand. A real alien would be so unlike us it would not be a situation where we would stay there to communicate with it by choice.
