As stated on the Avatar wiki site: I See you is a greeting. In the Na'vi language, it is expressed Oel ngati kame for a neutral greeting or Oel ngati kameie to express a positive feeling about meeting someone.
What does it mean when they say I see you in Avatar?
I See You or Oel ngati kameie is a Na'vi greeting given by fellow clansmates of all clans on Pandora. Many alien sociologist believed the greeting stemmed from the mythological Star Tree that is featured so far in only one song amongst both the Omaticaya and Tipani.
Another key message is put forth in the movie: Earth is dying. Though this might seem like the film's most obvious theme with the glorification of the beautiful, eco-friendly Pandora planet, it's still quite relevant. The humans want to take over Pandora because it could be the next Earth.
Easily the most famous and essential phrase in the Na'vi culture is "oel ngati kameie," which directly translates to "I see you." It may sound like a simple greeting, but as Dr. Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore) explains to main protagonist Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), the phrase is so much more significant than that.
When Na'vi encounter or greet one another, they gesture with their hand from their forehead, extending one hand down toward the other. They marry this gesture with the phrase "oel ngati kameie" (I see you).
The Na'vi are monogamous creatures who mate (Na'vi name: muntxa si meaning "mate with, marry") for life. The mechanics of their reproduction are similar to that of humans and other Terran mammals. However, their unique physiology creates an experience fundamentally different from that of humans.
In an article from the March 2023 issue of Empire, producer Jon Landau talks about how Spider gets the movie's one allowed F-bomb because the character's impulsive choice to play rescuer to a complicated father figure meets the impact of the word: "Spider has never really had a family and he's been searching for that.
Na'vi native Neytiri (voiced by Zoe Saldana) and the Na'vi avatar for the human Jake (Sam Worthington) are among those who speak a language that currently has roughly 1,000 words — though linguist Paul Frommer has said he hopes it will continue to grow as the Avatar universe does.
Yes, there's a 'mating scene' but it lasts less than about 30secs and is hardly graphic. There is a bit of swearing which I'm not a huge fan of but they're not words my daughter would repeat.
The most obvious distinction between an avatar and a genuine Na'vi is the number of fingers and toes. A Na'vi only has four digits, while the avatar body has five due to the human DNA. At the end of Avatar, Jake decides to transfer his consciousness to his avatar body permanently.
Augustine's colleague Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore) was the father and Grace conceived Kiri before the end of Avatar before somehow giving birth in her Avatar body. However, the more interesting theory is that Kiri is literally the child of Eywa due to some sort of immaculate conception.
Known to the Na'vi as atokirina, the Woodsprites are seeds from the Tree of Souls. The Na'vi revere the woodsprites and consider them bearers of omens and signs of sanctity. While woodsprites have the appearance of Earth jellyfish, they float in the wind similar to dandelion seeds.
After a tense exchange between Jake and her father, Mo'at entrusted Neytiri with teaching Jake the ways of the Na'vi as a means to learn more about humanity. Neytiri saw him as a skxawng or moron.
The violence isn't very INTENSE, but the film does deserve it's PG-13 rating. Bow and arrows are present, plus some killing and explosions -- still, nothing gets TOO over the top, and its still TWEEN and TEEN friendly. Also expect strong but INFREQUENT uses of s--t and one or two uses of f--k.
One f-word and about 15 s-words. We also hear “a–,” “b–ch,” “b–tard,” “crap,” “g-dd–n,” “d–n,” “h—” and the British profanities “bloody” and “bugger.” Jesus' name is abused once.
The Naʼvi language (Naʼvi: Lìʼfya leNaʼvi) is a fictional constructed language originally made for the 2009 film Avatar. In the film franchise, the language is spoken by the Naʼvi, a race of sapient humanoids indigenous to the extraterrestrial moon Pandora.
Reproduction. Reproduction mechanics (e.g. physical coupling) are similar to humans and other Terran mammals. The females carry the growing fetus just as humans do, in their womb. The gestational period isn't known, nor the birthing process.
There's a theory that the film director James Cameron could be hiding a vital feature of the Na'vi. According to that theory, Na'vi could reproduce asexually. Unless that theory is true, Grace was impregnated by someone. Kiri's brothers joke that the scientist Norm could be her father.
The original Avatar was so successful because of the novelty of hyperrealism in the late 2000s, which was just developing as an art form. The CGI mimics high-resolution photography, giving filmmakers the ability to create entire virtual worlds that look uncannily real.
