Is Bombbad a good thing or a bad thing?

In the beginning of TPM, when the jedi rescue the queen, Jar Jar says they're "bombbad" ( I could have misspelled that) ....which could give it a meaning akin to cool

Later, when the queen and her entourage meet Boss Nass to plead for help, he says they're all "bombbad"....which would give the word a negative connotation...

( I'd say any help here would be hot....but that would make me look stupid )

hey you are already ... nah, won't say it...

bombad is just a word with no real meaning I think...
in Belgium we subtitle every movie and they translated it in
"bomvette" wich is bomb-fat in English, no meaning to it as it can be used positive and negative

Isn;t Jar-Jar referring to rhe droids thee Jedi killed when they rexcued the queen? "Bombbad" simply means "Blown to pieces', I think. As in 'bombed bad'.

Boss Nass also promoted him to bombad general, remember

right...so is it a good thing or a bad thing?

"We make you bombad general"
"General?"
*faints*

I think that bombad is now positive (if it is pos or neg at all!)

Thanks......

No no no, the bombads CAUSE something to be bombadded! So nothing to do with positive or negative. Bombadded=destroyed. Bombads destroy things.

what? can you repeat that in plain English?

Can you imagine any non-star wars fans looking in on this topic? They'd think we're crazy.

you mean we aren't????

I think that bombad means: Fight or war.

I repeat myself

in the phrase:
"We gonna make you bombad general"

that doesn't mean fight or war!
I think it's just a (damn what's the correct word???? It's a word you always use, sometimes without even knowing it)

Blimey, people have made a mountain out of this!

Bombads blow things up! To be bombadded is to be destroyed! There is no more complication!

I don't like that explication!

Ush, with that meaning it sounds like
"We gonna make you blow up general."

well, everyone wants to kill Jar Jar ...

No! It means 'We are going to make you general in charge of the things that blow things up'- the bombads. Just like being called, just as a wild example, 'bombard general'- as many people have been historically.

Like I say, bombads DESTROY things. They are objects. You can be the general of them.

While 'Bombadding' is the destroying of things. It is a verb.

What don;t you like about that, yerss?

It's only a corruption of 'badly bombed', you know.

I don't like a lot

What makes you think that it means that?

Because 'bombadded' clearly means destroyed and 'bombad general' is just one letter away from bombard general (though as Jar-Jar dsid not appear to be in charge of any big guns, it probably just means 'general responsbile for blowing things up').

Kids were meant to b able to get the gist of this; it really isn't complex. 'Bombadding' is gjust a general term for destruction.

luckily I'm not a kid, so I can't take the gist

well, since you speak English, I guess you know this better then me

Hmm... not sure that helps... I do think it's meant to be self evident.

well, it wasn't selfevident for me...

I agree with Ush.

But it can be a good or bad thing depending on how it's said. When Jar Jar says it about the droids he's just impressed with the Jedi who destroyed (bombad) the droids.

When Boss Nass says it to Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon it's like a warning. "You're all bombad" meaning that they are only going to bring destruction.

or that the bombs that were used on land, that it was their fault. That they bombbad the country

That's what I said. They're all "bombadd" because they brought destruction.

ow sorry, didn't saw that then...

You all are confusing me

Your questioning the terminology of a speech-impaired Gungan, I'd say your crazy.

Wesa bombbad

I thought they said they were gonna make him bombar d general.

no, they clearly said bombbad, otherwhise we wouldn't discuss this huh?

I'm not sure I want to discuss this anyway. It's very close to Star Trek like Geekdom.

hey! they are geeks!

and this thread is really close.

Lets use it as an example in an everyday sentence, then maybe some of you nerfherders will get it. "When GL gets up in the morning, his hair be a bombbad". OR "Hey, GL just some kind of totally bombbad haircut yesterday".

I'm not a nerfherder

Have you ever seen a nerfherder ? They all look like Mel Gibson. They're only scuffy looking when they haven't shaved in 3 days.

I don't look like Mel Gibson...

Every man who has a beard and shaves it off is scruffy lookin in 3 days.

I always thought there was something weird about Mel Gibson.

he was bombbad in Braveheart

Nah, he was just bad.

Hey now.....you guys are breaking my heart....

He was sooooooo gooooooood. *passes out with smile on face*

Sorry about this, guys...

(Wheels Gundy outside)

So, people any happier about that term?

What'd gundy do wrong????

I'm just taking her somewhere where she can recover.

Bombad... bombard... stupid!

Mel Gibson....Mel Gibson....stupid!

Weirdos...

wow! Thank you!
And I didn't had to do anything special for it

Not everybody takes smarties to feel beter Yerssot, there are still normal people on this planet earth.

Where do you come from??? above?

Mars

And who is normal here?
Not you, Ush, queeq, finti...

me perhaps....

now I'm getting a negative answer, I know for sure
WHY??? WHY I'M ASKING YOU

I don't know, maybe because I'm a bad, very bad person

But you're right... you are normal...
(very low standard on earth, I'm sure!)
