Thread: Pirate speak

Tweet

With the 2- and 3-axis skull projects afoot, they be needin' something to say (lines of dialog).. so I had At Worlds End playing whilst my taxes I be doin.. I copied down memorable (funny or fitting) lines for Pirate displays for all to use. In addition, I shall be making these here into .mp3's for VSA to sync to.. The next couple days I shall be getting lines from Curse of the Black Pearl and Dead Mans Chest also..

(Sparrow)Haul yer halyard, slacken braces!
(Other Sparrows)Aye Captain, slacken braces!

(Sparrow)Step lively, step lively, with a will!!
(Other Sparrows)Aye aye, Right away sir!

(Sparrow)I want a fire down below!

(Sparrow)Man the yards ya filthy toads!

(Sparrow)Haul the sheet handsomely boys!

(Sparrow)Scandalize the lateens!

(Sparrow)Mr. Sparrow?
(Other Sparrow)Aye Captn?
(Sparrow)What say you about the condition of this tack line?
(Other Sparrow)It be proper ta my eyes Sir.
(Sparrow)Proper? It is neither proper nor suitable sir, it is not acceptable nor adequate, it is, in obvious fact, an abomination.
(Other Sparrow)Beggin your pardon sir, but if you gave a man another chance?
(Sparrow)Shall I? That sort of thinking got us into this mess!
(Sparrow)We have lost speed, and therefore time, precious time, which cannot be recovered once lost. Do you understand???
(many voices)Aye Captn!!!
(one voice)Aye Captn!
(Sparrow)Do you now? It will all have to be redone, All of it!! And let this serve as a lesson to the lot of you..
(Other Sparrow)Doledrums, sir, has the entire crew on edge..

(Sparrow)I have no sympathy for any of you feculant maggots and no more patience to pretend otherwise... Gentlemen, I wash my hands of this weirdness!

---------------------
(Sparrow)No wind.. of course there's no bloddy wind! My soul I do swear for a breeze, Gust, whisper. A tiny miniature lick..

(Sparrow)We shall have a magnificent garden party, and you're not invited...
---------------------

The following could be an arguement between two skellys

(Barbosa)Weigh anchor, all hands, prepare to make sail!!
(Sparrow)Weigh anchor, all hands, prepare to make sail!!
(Barbosa)Trim that sail, slack windward brace and sheet!
(Sparrow)Trim that sail, slack windward brace and sheet!
(Barbosa)Haul the pennant line!
(Sparrow)Haul the pennant line!
(Barbosa)Whaat arre you doin?
(Sparrow)What are you doin?
(Barbosa)No, whaat arrrrrre you doin?
(Sparrow)What are you doin?
(Barbosa)No, whaat arrrrrre you doin?
(Sparrow)What are you doin? Captain gives orders on this ship..
(Barbosa)Captain of this ship IS giving orders..
(Sparrow)My ship, makes me Captain,
(Barbosa)They be my charts,
(Sparrow)That makes you... Chartman!
(Swabbie)Stow it, the both of you, thats an order, understand?? Sorry, I just thot with the captain issue in doubt I'd throw in my name for consideration.. ..sorry.
================================================== ============

The following could be a conversation with a single skelly, turning his head left/right to talk to the "other" Jacks.

(Sparrow)Up is down? Well that's just maddeningly unhelpful. Why are these things never clear?

(Sparrow, right shoulder)Clear as mud Jackie!

(Sparrow)What? Eh?

(Sparrow, right shoulder)Stab the heart!

(Sparrow, left shoulder)Dont stab the heart!

(Sparrow)Come again?

(Sparrow, right shoulder)The Dutchman must have a Captain

(Sparrow)Well, thats even more then less than unhelpful!

(Sparrow, right shoulder)Sail the seas for eternity.

(Sparrow)I love the seas.

(Sparrow, left shoulder)What about port?

(Sparrow)I prefer rum, Rum's good.

(Sparrow, left shoulder)Making port, where we can get rum, and salty wenches!

(Sparrow, right shoulder)Once every ten years.

(Sparrow, left shoulder)What did he say?

(Sparrow)Once every ten years.

(Sparrow, left shoulder)Ten years is a long time, mate..

(Sparrow)Even longer,given the deficit of rum.

(Sparrow, left shoulder)but eternity is longer still.

(Sparrow, right shoulder)And how will you be spending it? Dead?

(Sparrow, left shoulder)or not?

(Sparrow, right shoulder)The immortal Captain Sparrow.

(Sparrow)Oh, I like that!

(Sparrow, right shoulder)Come sunset it wont matter.

(Sparrow)Not sunset.... Sundown! And rise... up!
================================================== =

The following are assorted commands from the cannon battle with Davy Jones.

(Barbosa) Loose the cannons ya lazy bilge rats! Unstow the cargo, let it shift!
(Sparrow) Utterly deceptive twaddle-speak, says I
(Barbosa) Brace up yer yards ya cack-handed deck apes! Dying is the day worth livin for!

(Sparrow) Close haul her! Luff the sails and lay her in irons! Full canvas!
(Barbosa)Aye, full canvas!

There you are good Capn'. Where have you been hiding? I'm concerned about this conversation you are having with yourself...are you OK?

Wow thats quite the dialogue my good sir! How long did it take you to transcribe all of that?!?!?!

Hello MT! Yes, I missed you too I've been around, mostly in the 3-axis skulls thread.. but I've been around... not in the Chat room in a while tho... I need to stop back in and see everyone...

DD, wasnt too long, it's easy when you turn on closed captioning and just read it off the screen
