Explaining the DNA Language

DNA Sequences

DNA is a sequence of the 4 letters UCAG.

So a typical DNA squence will be

UCACCUGGGUGUGUGGGU

In the triplet language this sequence becomes the following set of triplets

UCA CCU GGG UGU GUG GGU

Reading the Triplets

The first letter of the triplet is silent so that the second letter is the one that makes the sound.

The sound of the second letter depends on the pronunciation of the first letter.

So although the first letter is silent it pronounces the second letter

i.e.

The first letter is silent and pronounces the second letter

The second letter makes the sound dependant upon its prononciation by the first letter

e.g. U pronounces C as “Si”

but  C pronounces C as “Ra” so in all we have

UU = Fa

UC = Si

UA = No

UG = Wi

CU = La

CC = Ra

CA = Qua

CG = Da

AU = Chi

AC = To

AA = Ki

AG = Ma

GU = Va

GC = Be

GA = Go

GG = Ja

So this makes 16 primary sounds that the DNA makes in the triplet language.

The third letter sets the vowel sound in the ascending order a i o u such that

UUU = Fa

UUC = Fi

UUA = Fo

UUG = Fu

And

UCU = Sa

UCC = Si

UCA = So

UCG = Su

Etc for all the sounds from Fa Fi Fo Fu down to Ja Ji Jo Ju.

In practise the Sa sounds generally make the sound Say, and Ra becomes Ray. Also those triplets ending with A have an n on the end and So becomes Son, Ro becomes Ron etc. For UUA and UUG we have a special consonant of P instead of F since this is translated differently. So the codons become

UUU = Fa

UUC = Fi

UUA = Pon

UUG = Pod

UCU = Say

UCC = Si

UCA = Son

UCG = Seed

Now we can read the DNA from its triplets

For example every time UCA appears it makes the sound Son etc for all the triplet codons. So the opening sequenc of chromosome 1

UCA CCU GGG UGU GUG GGU

Becomes

Son Rays Ju Za Vu Ja Bi Va Ron Je Za Qua Mi.

The DNA primary language.

Because we can now read each codon we can actually read every nucleotide since we now know how they are pronounced

So

UCACCUGGGUGUGUGGGU

Becomes

Fa Son She To Rays Lu Wi Ju Ja
