This script allows you to give ur game a snd language which is similar to the language of the Al Bhed of FF-X and can be learned by the player.

Don't know FF-10 or the Albeth language

Spoiler
Source:

The Al Bhed language is a unique language in Spira, spoken by the Al Bhed people. Working like a substitution cipher (a language system replacing certain letters with others), it shares the same syntax and grammar of English in the English versions of Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2.

What is it that u don't understand?
- Transforming normal text into 2nd language
- Learning the player a new letters
- something else

So where are the letters stored at? Is there a way I can step up what letters are what letters?

The script uses at the moment a pseudo Cesarshifre it shifts the letter in the alphabeth.

TransSwitch= 3; # This is the Switch which holds the solved letters. The switch # The Switch must not be changed with in the makerChangerVal= 4; # It holds the value how far the letters are shifted At the moment u can only change ChangerVal to change how far the letters are shifted.

This sounds awesome. But, can we see this in action so that us less script-savvy members can understand? Also, can you change the script so that you can choose different letters/sounds?

For instance: I created a language called Runic for a story. Say I wanted to use that language for a game. 'Ze-ges' would be 'Hi' in Runic. (The hyphen separates the letters/sounds.)

Fixed script format,
Thanks a lot I might use this now, you wouldn't happen to know how the script is properly used?
the line that says
a=$game_switches[Translator::TransSwitch]a['<letter>']=true
is this the correct script line to use? or is it something like
a=$game_switches[Translator::TransSwitch]
a['<letter>']=true

if so then I'm guessing you can do
a=$game_switches[Translator::TransSwitch]
a['<letter>']=true
a['<letter>']=true
a['<letter>']=true
a['<letter>']=true

Just wondering because I have not seen a line like that before. It's the 'a' in the middle that confuses me.
a=$game_switches[Translator::TransSwitch]a['<letter>']=true

After some testing I see how to use the script.
The switch used is not turned on.
The lines are put together in the same script call but are on different lines and you can only use one character at a time.

a=$game_switches[Translator::TransSwitch]
a['A']=true
a['B']=true
a['C']=true
a['D']=true
