hey people

firstly id like to say hello to everybody and to excuse my ignorance as im not japanese and bound to make a few mistales which may offend someone, so my apologies in advance

ok what i want to ask is if someone can translate this word for me? its from the last samurai 2003, and its when the japanese regiment first clash arms with the samurai in that misty forest.

the samurai shout out a word, i think its "humyour" they shout out. could somebody translate this to english for me please?

id tried to submit a link but im not allowed to do so

i can pm the link, just message me

cheers

I think it was "yamei" or STOP IT, if it was the phrase when the samurais tried to kill Tom Cruise.
But I need a double check after I rent the DVD again.
 
they said it when the samurai were charging the regiment on their horses,
 
To me it sounds like 'Onmyou', which is the Japanese pronunciation of 'Yin & Yang' in Chinese (in English as well).
 
I don't remember but it may be a word that meant to say 'charge forward' ?
 
perhaps Dame, usually meaning, No, Don't and such.
 
hmm the conclusion michaelkane came up with makes more sense than yin and yang and stop/dont.
 
You need to either find somebody who has the DVD and can listen to it or provide us with the ACTUAL Japanese dialog. Search around online for movie scripts. We can't guess.

Not as a live URL. But you can submit the link. Type it with the spaces as you would regular text, like this workaround : www. jref.com/forum
 
its not too clear in this link but its the best i came across

ww w .youtube.com/watch?v=jptRAKue82w
 
I can't find what you're talking about. At what point in the clip?
 
cheers elizabeth for the tip

i looked in the scirpts it just goes "samurai shout their ancient battle cries"

i was hoping someone who has the dvd or something would know

around about 2.15 mate, but its not very clear

I watched it twice through and couldn't get it. Whoever encoded that thing had the audio levels waaay down.

I think it is a yelling voice, otakebi, which nobody except the actors could transcript it.
