Have letter in need of translating

[Indiana Gardener]

Hi y'all,

I have a letter in kanji that needs translating. I wrote someone in english, but them being in Japan I guess they felt it best to reply in Japanese. Can't complain, I did write them in a language that's foreign to them too. Please e-mail me if you can take a shot at it. Thanks.

Is it a written letter or an email. I'm guessing it is letter, but if it's an email just copy and paste the lettering onto a translator. this is a good one.

@nifty: 翻訳

Yes, it's hand written on paper. This is in no way meant as an offense to the language, but it just looks to me (a foreigner of this language) like a bunch of sticks thrown down on the ground at random. I know it's not, in fact must be very precise, but I could never choose the exact characters on a computer to translate it that way. I can't imagine how english must have looked to the people I wrote. I'm sure they must have viewed it the same as I view their writing. I need someone very skilled who must know both Japanese kanji and English fluently. Thanks for the link anyway. Maybe I'll have a use for it sometime, never know.

Sorry I couldn't help more. they also look like little sticks tossed on the ground to me too. XD

If you could scan the letter (at a high resolution) as a generic image file you can post it to the board and then lots of people could take a shot at it. Otherwise it sounds like you will have to send the letter to someone. Hope this isn't something you need done in a hurry!
