| ==Overview==
| | The '''alien languages''' in ''[[Futurama]]'' are set of background jokes, appearing in the background through out the length of the show. The intention of these alien languages was for its viewers to discover how they work and then decipher them, feats at which its fanbase have excelled. |
| For a bit of fun, the creators of [[Futurama]] placed messages throughout the series encoded in some imaginary alien languages. There are at least two languages known to exist in the show, though some believe a 3rd language was introduced in the final season.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==AL1==
| | Technically, they are not 'languages' per se, but a ciphered form of English, or more precisely, Latin characters, since not all of their 'translations' are in English. |
| The first alien language (AL1) was a simple substitution-cypher. This means that each latin letter was replaced with a new symbol. The language can be translated into english simply by learning each symbol, or by looking it up in a table.
| |
|
| |
|
| In the episode [[Leela's Homeworld]], the language is referred to as "Alienese".
| | There are only two of these 'languages' known to exist, or at least deciphered. Some fans believe a 3rd language was introduced in the [[season 4|fourth season]], but this has been confirmed to be false. |

| The second alien language was more complicated, and is not for the faint of heart. Each symbol had a numerical value. To decode a message, the first symbol's value is translated directly into a character (0='A', 1='B', and so on). For the remaining letters, you subtract the previous symbol's numerical value. If the result is less than zero, you add 26. Then that number is converted into a character as before. Unfortunately, the symbol for 1 has never been seen. This means you can never start a sentence (or word, if you use the "restart" method) with a "B". | | |

AL1
The first alien language (Alien Language 1; AL1) is a simple substitution cypher. This means that each Latin letter is simply replaced with a new symbol. The script can be translated into English simply by learning each symbol, or by looking it up in a table.
In the episode "Leela's Homeworld", the script is referred to as "Alienese".
Symbols
AL2
The second alien language is more complicated, a variation of the classic autokey cipher, and is not for the faint of heart. Each symbol has a numerical value. To decode a message, the first symbol's value is translated directly into a character (0='A', 1='B', and so on). For the remaining letters, you subtract the previous symbol's numerical value. If the result is less than zero, you add 26. Then that number is converted into a character as before.

Other Alien Languages
Various Alien Language symbols. The highest one up (in red) is
Morse Code.
If two Alien Languages aren't enough, the Futurama writers have also done other Alien Languages that seem to be Gibberish, and have not been translated, like Leela's bracelet under her Wristlojackimator, various symbols in "My Three Suns" and others.
In November 2013, David X. Cohen revealed in an interview that the writers had created a third complete alien language, one which he described as "more cryptographically secure". Due to its complexity, though, the language was never implemented into the show. [1]
