A while ago on these forums, a thread was written in which translations were provided for what the units of all 8 original civs say when clicked on, when moving, and when attacking. They also said what settlers say when gathering certain resources and what explorers say when knocked out and revived. I wanted to start a thread in which the same things are done, but for the TWC (Iroquois, Aztec, Sioux) and TAD (Chinese, Japanese, Indian) civs. Anyone who knows the languages of these civs is invited to help! Please post! Thanks!

Excellent job on the Asian civs! Does anyone know the translations for the Aztec, Iroquois, and Sioux?
