Has it been stated, or heard if anyone has good ears, if we are going to be able to understand the Covenant again? While not being able to comprehend their language in Reach was cool, I still like to hear what the Elites and Grunts have to say about me.
yes, although the elites and grunts sound different, we are able to understand things they say. The grunt said something in the E3 trailer
I think that yes we be able to understand,but maybe is that they are speaking spanish,english for you,so thats why we can understand them
Think about it
If the covies capture any marine or have any info,it would be nice to they to understand us

Since the enemy were new to us in Reach, translation software wasn’t around for them. Made sense really.
Should be able to understand them now.
I think it’d be cooler if their speech was still uncomprehensible, but we had subtitles appear. Very similar to the way they subtitle a predator’s speech in the AVP series. (with the alien characters being translated into the roman alphabet one by one)
Obviously subtitles aren’t as advanced as literal translation, but I think subtitles still make the Covenant feel alien and menancing.
High-pitched, english speking grunts are funny n’ all. But it humanises them too much…
