English Guide to Foreign Voice Lines

By Lawman

A guide for English-speaking tank crew that prefer not having subtitles.

I am not a native or even elementary speaker of either language - translations are attempts to match the sounds I'm hearing to those of web translators, and may not be perfect. Special thanks to community members who chip in with corrections and suggestions.

This guide is intended to translate the voice lines used in GHPC, regardless of whether this reflects the actual training of the respective armies.

* May be an adaptation of "two". Does not sound like full "twenty" in game.

** MZ thought to be designation for auto-loader carousel in T-64 and T-80, while T-72 and T-90 thought to use AZ.

I did some goofing on the T-80B firing range, and I realized that it seems that the commander does have callouts for the rear, which seems to be 60, and said something like "na shest'desyat vpravo(?)"

if i had to interpret it, maybe something like "from sixty from the right"?

High (round went over) is Perelyot.

@Keiler is the NVA glossary book available nowadays?

"Target lost tsel' poterya naцель потеряна"
The correct term is “Target lost tsel' poteryana цель потеряна”.

Keiler 16 Oct, 2024 @ 2:56pm

I only recall the "Bundeswehr - Sprech" of the tankers., e.g. the West German Army.

Anyways.

To assist:
"Tonner" is the correct callout for any kind of truck, from Jeep to full blown fueler/hauler at least by tankers.
ATGM is called out as "LFK!" (Lenkflugkörper ~ lit. guided flight object).
This game: "Das selbe Ziel nochmal!" = "The same target again!"

When using the T62, I've heard the loader shouting "Loaded" (at least that is what the subtitles say. What I think they are actually saying is "Ready" - it sounds a lot like "gotovyy" (готовый).

Dart_welder, what romanization standard are you using? I've seen a few different ways of romanizing Russian, some in official documents, and I've never seen ь depicted as "j".

The point of romanization is to have consistent spelling of words while using the same letters as the main language of the text. German is unchanged because it uses Latin letters, not writing "schuetzenpanzer" is not as noticeable.

I think the romanization here is fine.

The German commander sometimes says a longer version of the "same target" line, it sounds like he is saying "selbe ziel auf mal" or something similar

Lawman [author] 22 Jul, 2024 @ 12:10pm

It seems based on other translations that fifty is more likely "five tens" than "half of hundred".

Thanks for your input Dart_Welder.
I'd suggest reading the guide in full, you'll find answers to your questions there :)
