SeRJ-Kot-maniac, да? очень интересно...

Ришиан, приснилось в субботу во сне... думала в сети найду ответ что это такое... но не нашла толком ничего.... :( достало это слово...

Liasteniel, согласен с SeRJ-Kot-maniac, на индусскую фамилию похоже. Вбей в Гугл - убедишься.

Rino_ap_Codkelden, да вбивала уже сегодня... ничего вразумительного не нашла...

Rino_ap_Codkelden , да вбивала уже сегодня... ничего вразумительного не нашла...

ну вот я вбил... куча индийских фамилий, ников, и т. д. и т. п.

Rino_ap_Codkelden, ну и нашёл что такое есть DADAGA вообще? Я не нашла... Меня даже на карту Эфиопии выбросило... там тоже есть какая-то DADAGA.... дурдом просто.... ЧТО ЭТО ТАКОЕ? Вот в чём вопрос

Rino_ap_Codkelden, тут вроде что-то вразумительное может быть... но я нифига не поняла на каком это языке... http://www.lycaeum.org/mv/anagrams/PARALINGUA.cgi?article=Dadaga

Liasteniel, это имя или название. Чтобы понять, что означает это слово, надо знать язык, из которого оно пришло,не так ли? А у нас нет знания об этом...

Бессмыслица, генерируемая алгоритмом. Смотри, что я нашел:

Some more findings from playing around:

Searching for a string gives a different page than setting the article title to that string.

Appending one or more instances of a to your search term or article title returns the same article, with the exception that the search/title term is also modified where it appears in the article.

Searching repeatedly for the same term gives the same page except for the page title. (Not the headline within the article, but the actual HTML title, which appears in the title bar of the browser.)

Strangely, three or more consecutive occurrences of a in your search term or article title are reduced when they appear in the article, with every full three a's becoming two. E.g., baaacd becomes baacd, (3 becomes 2), raaaat becomes raaat (4 becomes 3), daaaaaaaaa becomes daaaaaa (9 becomes 6). In other words, consecutive a's are reduced to 2/3 the original number of a's, rounded up. However, words that appear the same do not generate the same page. searching on baaacd generates a different page than searching on baacd, even though they appear the same in the page text.

Consecutive e's or o's are reduced in the same way as consecutive a's. (Although only the same letter repeated, not mixed letters.) Consecutive i's are reduced to 1/3 their original number, rounded up. Consecutive u's are reduced to a single u if the number of consecutive u's is not divisible by 3, and eliminated entirely if it is. Consecutive y's are reduced to 1/2 their original number, rounded up. Repetitions of other letters do not seem to be affected.

The HTML source does not appear to give any clues except for one thing. An HTML comment that looks like this for searches:



and this for when you specify the "article" in the URL:



(In both of the above cases the term was "g".) The number where "6" appears above changes depending on the search term. When searching a single letter, the number appears to range from 0 (for a) to 25 (for z). For longer words, the number is apparently generated by taking the values for each letter and multiplying by successive powers of 4, increasing towards the right. e.g., for "cats" the number 1458 appears, and 1458=2 + 0*4 + 19*42 + 18*43.

You can even see when this algorithm goes beyond the integer range on my second linked page in my previous comment: "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" produces, literally, "1.77257608893777e+21"

Non-letter characters appear to be ignored.

I suspect the number thus generated is used as a seed for a pseudo-random number generator used to produce the page: two words that generate the same number ("blob" and "nice" both result in 333) return the same page, except for where the search/title term appears within the page. (This also explains why appending a's does not change the page except for the term itself, as appending a's does not alter the number generated by this algorithm).

I'd be curious to see the algorithm which generates these pages--clearly the words aren't just some random assortment of letters, as vowels and consonants are mixed in the right way to appear like actual words. Perhaps some kind of Markov chain at the letter level? (If so, is it based on an actual language? Which one?)

Это об этом сайте.
все это здесь http://ask.metafilter.com/103652/Strange-language-in-website
А вообще там же упоминается, что это похоже все на манускрипт Войнича...

Это точно... Я порой просто поражаюсь тому, что мой мозг выдаёт во сне....

Rino_ap_Codkelden, манускрипт Войнича? никогда не слышала о таком....

Половину текста не поняла....

Про манускрипт http://offline.computerra.ru/2005/573/37310/

Rino_ap_Codkelden, спасибо... пошла читать...

В общем что такое DADAGA никто не знает...

Liasteniel, увы....

SeRJ-Kot-maniac, мне интересен больше этот вариант... http://www.maplandia.com/ethiopia/oromiya/east-harerghe/dadaga/
http://travelingluck.com/Africa/Ethiopia/(ET07)/_340294_Dadaga.html#local_map
Оказывается есть такое место на земле.... Просто о нём мало мне известео... Вернее кроме названия нифига не известно)))

интересно.
(У меня была идея, кстати, на карте глянуть, но почему-то не осуществил).
В эфиопии... Может съездить как-нибудь доведётся. Представь, как название из сна может перевернуть твою судьбу.

SeRJ-Kot-maniac, вряд ли мне доведётся туда съездить))) Хотя было бы интересно))) Сегодня постараюсь написать пост про мой сон в котором я "познакомилась" с этим словом))) Может мне помогут что-то объяснить? я теряюсь....

ждёмс...

SeRJ-Kot-maniac, сегодня уже никак... Ухожу спать...
