What's the English translation of Klaatu virada nicto? |
|
Happened to surf across this old moovie on sat & thought back to junior high days when it came out. One of our popular pranks during assembly was to surreptitiously blurt out "GORT". Heh heh I guess it's like...well Klaatu was the guy so apparently 'virada' means "he's been shot by American soldiers", and 'nicto' means "so go find him, bring him back to the flying saucer and bring him back to life"... :D Those guys had some real economical language.

1. Nicto (or nikto) is "no one" or "nobody" in Russian... |
|
I don't know what the other words mean - I don't think they are from Russian...
