What does this say in English?

Thanks in advance

If you can read this, you know Korean?

look on the internet, it is one of the biggest info providers in the world..

try finding a korean to english translation page

Um, I do research as part of my job and let me tell you - it would be pretty hard to just jump on the internet and search for the meaning of a symbol. You can't exactly go to Google and search for "a written symbol that is like a black marker in vertical and horizontal lines that are kinda crossed near the top, and there's some other lines at the bottom that look like a # but not quite." lol :P

Yea... no.

Korean, and all asian alaphabets (wich really aren't alphebets at all) are not like the one we use. Invidual letters and symbols are not used to represent single sounds... the symbols have different areas within them that mean different things.

To translate that you'd have to actually undestand how the Korean language works... why do you even bother posting if you're gonna just post useless crap that won't help anyone?

Ya its almost impossable to find out what that says on the net you will need to know someone who can read that language like what Mournblade said you can't just do a seachs for it and find it

Are you sure it's even Korean? And not Chinese or Japanese Kanji?

It's just a design. Not part of an actual language. ^_^

And actually there are Japanese and Korean alphabets that work like ours that use a syllabary rather than symbols for each word:

The Japanese use Kanji as well, but these are simply slightly modified Chinese characters which some of are rather archaic now.

That's not Korean. I doubt that's any language at all.

Yes, the Korean language has an "alphabet", with vowels and consonants.

And to make sure that everyone gets the message, THIS IS NOT KOREAN.

It says....

"Snape kills Dumbledore."

One, its not Korean. Korean is VERY distinctive from Chinese and Japanese, you really shouldnt be getting them confused. It isnt too hard to learn to read and write the Korean alphabet....remembering what the words actually mean is the hard part. ;-)

The characters ARE part of an actual language. Though parts of it can be read in Chinese, it really doesnt make too much sense. I have the feeling someone that can read Japanese would be able to translate it.

Please people, if you dont actually know what it is then dont make mis-information replies.

Are you saying this for certain or just guessing?

(Perhaps its the Japanese Kanji for Cantha or perhaps it is Canthan characters...)

Well, if it were more clear, then I could use the drawing pad I have to help input it into a site that can translate whichever language it is into english..

I'll clear it up. It says

'How's my fighting - Call (number removed)....

i can verify that it's not chinese... nor, imo, is it kanji from japanese (which in writing, i heard was the same thing any way)

and yes, as heist mentioned, it's not korean either... i can recognise korean when i see one i think... (watched too much korean series ^^)

It is Calligraphy.

What the symbols represent I don't know, you'd really just have to look them up :\

Well my parents can't read it so that leaves Chinese out...

Ok I think I can now safely say that it is not Japanese Kanji either.

I don't know anything about Korean or Chinese, but multiple people have confirmed it isn't either of those.

I am currently studying Japanese, and I didn't think it was Japanese at first as it didn't look familiar to me at all, but I thought there may still be a chance as I certainly am not familiar with every Japanese Kanji out there, that and the fact that the characters are rendered rather poorly, I figured there may still be a chance that it could be Japanese.

Now I don't think so.

I just compared it to the 300 Kanji in the book that I am currently learning from, and it doesn't even come close to any of them.

Further more I figured if it were a Japanese Kanji it probably wouldn't be something you would learn from a common textbook.

As such I figured that the most likely place one would find a Kanji they would use, are Kanji that would be used for tattoos, as those Kanji would be the type one would use for a guild symbol in a game like GW.

So I compared it to the 500 popular tattoo Kanji on this site:

http://japanese.about.com/bl50kanji.htm

As well as the Seven Deadly Sins, Seven Heavenly Virtues, Zodiac Signs, Seven Codes of Bushido, and the Five Elements.

No matches or anything that even looks close.

Now the thing with Japanese Kanji is that even though there are thousands of different symbols you can use they still use common strokes and designs to make up the Kanji. The ones used in this picture don't look like any of the ones that are used. Even if you take into account really crappy rendering of the characters, they still don't come close to anything in Japanese Kanji.

I thought that it might be something like Factions so I looked up the Kanji for that specifically and found the following:

http://www.rikai.com/kanjimap/%C7%C9

The first character looks slightly like the Kanji used for school, but it would still be stretching it. And even then the second character used is just crap and it doesn't look like anything.

So my best guess is if Anet actually wished it to be anything more than gibberish, it would probably be "Factions" in Canthan.

Read it sideways. It almost looks like EaUlt.
Edit: I take that back. It looks more like "EartH"
