How to learn Necron Language? Polygot Achivement

Not sure how you go about learning the language. On the first Necron planet and then to the second it says you didn't learn the language when activating things. So how do you go about doing it?

It's on the very first necron planet, before activating the large cogitator in the middle of the room, you just have to explore the room (go to the left, to the right and activate all the other cogitators there are 2 or 3 cant remember), you can also follow the cables from the main one to the secondary ones. After that you activate the main one and pick the right dialogues (its all very obvious then).

Got it, did that and it didn't register learning the language so was wondering if I missed something.

Maybe you need to press on all possible checks around the room before going for the main cogitator, and need to have high enough awareness, lore xenos, logic and whatnot. Might also be a bug, but honestly often enough some stuff can evade the player because of a hidden check, a technicality, the dialogue option taken before another... I could immediately see that it worked cuz the very first appearing necrons suddenly had a text translation subtitles.

Okay, so on the first world, there are 3 checks surrounding the main central cognatior that starts the fight.
If you go through the option, pass all the checks on the outlying areas, you'll find the option, after the tech-use option (the first one), you should proceed with the second option, not the one that starts the fight.
Evidently, if you "start the fight" you lose the option of going back to the cognator and learning the language.
"Learning about the creators" or masters or whatever the dialog is, is the wrong choice on the central cognator.
