[edit] Spartan Capitalization
I just checked the novels the bungie website, and the game manuals for halo. In almost all formats, Spartan is written as such, with only the S capitalized. The full capitalization SPARTAN is only used as a military title/serial such as SPARTAN-458 and SPARTAN-117 and sometimes in the phrase SPARTAN-II program--Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 02:07, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Alternate Explanation for Japanese Victory Taunts
One of her hobbies is watching anime, so maybe she picked up a few phrases. In The Haunted Apiary (ILB), Kamal's sister Yasmine(who later became involved with the Spartan II project) picked up foreign languages quickly. - vlad3163 31 August 2006
- This is a good explanation, but it's an often-used explanation for how otaku can learn japanese. Being a military Spartan who's been trained since birth, the other explanation holds more water.

[edit] Height and Weight
How can she be 6 foot 8 wthout armour? The in-game model doesn't reflect this listed height either, she would have to be quite a bit taller than Bass and she isn't. And also this profile says that without armour she is heavier than Hulk Hogan in his prime by 100 pounds (Hulkster is also 6 foot 8 and this female is even heavier). Is this a mistake by a Wiki user or have Team Ninja/Bungie got it wrong in her profile? If it is correct she is the tallest female character ever and as fat as a hippo. Did I forget to take into account her lead bones and mercury blood? Mr.bonus 20:01, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
- She's a genetically enhanced cyborg, which means she's at least partly robotic. Even without her armour, those metal parts are still heavy. - Arnizipal 20:32, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

- Possible spoilers for story line - Part of the process the Spartan-IIs went through before they got their armor was to have a metallic substance grafted onto most of their bones. Combine this with the increased muscle mass and they can be quite heavy. It's been awhile since I read the books, but I think that with armor they weigh half a ton.205.188.116.9 21:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

- She does not have robotic parts other than a neural link up for her armor. She has had Carbide Ceramic grafted to her bones and her muscle tissue density increased, which accounts for her weight, and growth hormones to increase the size of her muscles and the overall dimensions of her bones.
