Throughout {{p3}}, there are pieces of '''Koppaite text''', or text written in the language of [[Koppai]]. The language is a symbol substitution cipher—characters in Koppaite can be mapped to Latin letters, and with that, a direct English message can be obtained.


Because most players do not know the cipher, sometimes the content of the text is secretive and special. For instance, on the [[area selection menu]], when the player clicks an area, some mysterious text will appear on the top-left, with what appears to be comments from the developers. The information behind some texts does not seem to match up with reality, indicating that it was true in [[Pikmin 3 prerelease information|prerelease versions]].
Throughout {{p3}}, there are pieces of text written in '''[[Koppai]]te'''. The language used consists of unique symbols which, together, form words. A parallel between it and the English language can easily be made, given that characters in Koppaite can be mapped to Latin letters, and with that, a direct English message can be obtained. Although largely original, the characters used in the language are similar to Latin characters, but with some changes.
 
Because the text behind this language cannot be easily deciphered by players who do not know the cipher, sometimes its contents are secretive and special. For instance, on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection menu]], when the player clicks an area, some mysterious text will appear on the top-left, with what appears to be comments from the developers. The information behind some texts does not seem to match up with reality, indicating that it was true in [[Pikmin 3 prerelease information|prerelease versions]].

Each character in the Koppaite language can be mapped to one or two English letters. There are only characters for the 26 English letters plus an extra, unknown one. This unknown character only appears on the [[Mission Mode menu]] and [[Bingo Battle menu]], and does not appear in {{p3d}}. While its meaning cannot be decided from the context alone, it's possible that it's some kind of placeholder character, considering the same symbol (〓) is used to indicate missing characters in Japanese.

These characters are obtained from the font file in the game's data.

===Instances of Koppaite handwriting in the Voyage Log===
In Olimar's [[Pikmin 4 voyage log|voyage log]], there are a few entries that feature an illustration instead of a photo. These illustrations also have a few handwritten notes and labels, which appear to be a somewhat messy cursive version of the Koppaite alphabet. What follows is a possible translation of these handwritten notes. Please note that they may not be completely accurate. Cursive is often loose and hastily written with some degree of inconsistency, and the Koppaite letters are often simplified to be written faster.
{{todo|Translate the rest of the handwriting on entries #7, #36, and #69, and check entry #38 as it comes out unusually abbreviated.}}

==Trivia==
*The internal game file that holds the font used for Koppaite text is called <code>Hokotate_00.bffnt</code>.
*The use of this alphabet in ''Pikmin 4'' indicates that this language is not exclusive to Koppai.
