| Se on sukua kalmarille ja mustekalalle - jotka molemmat ovat menettäneet kuorensa evoluution aikana. Mustekalasta on tullut helmiveneen pahimpia vihollisia. | It's nearest living relatives are squid and octopus which, over evolutionary time, have both lost their shells and the octopus has become one of the nautilus' major predators. |
| Jälleen yksi helmivene. | Another nautilus. |
| Koko talo on helmivene. | The whole building's a nautilus. |
| Kuori kiinnostaa minua matemaatikkona, - mutta mihin helmivene tarvitsee sitä? | I'm interested in the shell as a mathematician, but what does the nautilus use the shell for? I think the most obvious use is protection. |
| Se on helmivene. Liikennevalot ovat muutakin kuin raja. | It's a nautilus, and the street lights are more than just a border. |
| Seuraamalla tätä yksinkertaista matemaattista sääntöä - helmivene rakentaa tyylikkään spiraalinsa. | And it's just by following this simple mathematical rule that the nautilus builds this elegant spiral. |
