\"\"<\/a>Tired of hearing the same old sat nav voice? You’ve now arrived at your “t\u00eckan” (destination). In celebration of the release of AVATAR Extended Collector’s Edition on Blu-ray and DVD this week you can now customize your Garmin n\u00fcvi with Na’vi voice directions. Due to growing demand from the public, Garmin has released customized directions in the native language of Avatar’s Na’vis, which are downloadable on the Garmin website. (garmin.com\/uk\/extras\/avatar\/)<\/p>\n

The ultimate Avatar fan can now get full driving instructions – m\u00ecn ft\u00e4r (turn left), m\u00ecn skien (turn right) and tx\u00ecng mus\u00ecna tsengit (exit roundabout) for example, making getting to your destination all that much more exciting for Avatar fans here in the U.K.<\/p>\n

Taronyu aka Richard Littauer, the U.K’s number 1 Avatar fan, who also created a Na’Vi dictionary has been working with Garmin to record the vocal cues and directions in Na’Vi for customers to download.<\/p>\n

Example of well know sat nav directions in Na’Vi;
\n*”Ftexy ‘awve tihum, min ftar ro musina tsengit mi zam ayvenu pate ro tikan”
\no”Take 1st exit, turn left at roundabout. In 100 feet arrive at destination”
\n*”fpx\u00e4k\u00ecm mus\u00ecna tsengit tsar ftxey muve t\u00echum. Seralew t\u00eckan mi h\u00ecma fya’o.
\no”Enter roundabout then take second exit. Continue on route and arrive at destination in \u00be of a mile”
\n*”fongueo. m\u00ecn lahea fya’o”
\no”Traffic ahead. Make a u-turn”
\n*Mi apxa ‘it fya’o\u00e4 m\u00ecn skien
\no”In half a mile turn right”<\/p>\n

Anthony Chmarny, Garmin’s Head of Communications said, ” The Na’Vi voice is a bit of fun to help celebrate the release of the Extended Collector’s Edition of AVATAR. It’s great and I’m sure it will bring a smile to your face when trying to get from ‘A to B’ whilst using your Garmin n\u00fcvi sat nav.”<\/p>\n
