Need a word or phrase translated?

Meiji Shrine has chosen 15 poems from the works of Empress Shoken for omikuji. It's the 12th poem.
 
Can anyone help with my translation thing? :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Sorry for bad English.
August 7th was Rachel's fateful day. Was it because I wore magic pants...?? For the first time, a little heart named love had come into Rachel. John is gentle and good-looking. I hope we will meet again someday. I wish it from the bottom of my heart. Take care forever!!
With love. lol.
See you. (☆)
 
I'm having trouble working out this sentence, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Context:
A and B are dating. B wants to break up because B thinks that A only wants sex. After B tries to break up with A, A says:

もう好きだの何だの言って見せたり優しくしたり気ィ使ったりそういう面倒な事抜きでヤれるって事だろ?

好きだの何だの言ってみせる is similar to 好きとか何とか言ってみせる.

~てみせる
9 (補助動詞)動詞の連用形に助詞「て」の付いた形に接続して用いる。

①実際にその行為をして、人に示す。「歌って―・せる」「おどけて―・せる」
見せる(みせる)の意味 - goo国語辞書

"好きだの何だの言って見せたり", "優しくしたり" and "気ィ(=気を)使ったり" are the examples of 面倒な事.

そういう面倒な事抜きで: without these hassles

ヤれる is the potential form of a slang やる "to have sex".

Oh wow, I wasn't expecting such a point by point explanation.
This is very helpful, thank you so much! :)
 
Letter Translation

After being sent a letter from a pen pal in Japan I need to write back. Since their English is a lot more advanced then my Japanese I will find this difficult. I am currently learning Japanese but I don't have enough knowledge to write back. I also only know how to write hiragana :/ I understand if no one can help. Ty :)
 
Hi there :)

Just want to ask, how should I translate this sentence to Japanese:

"I promise you will love/like it."
"You will love/like it."

Thanks :)
 
Translate

Can somebody please translate to English. Thank you. :)

Are you talking also in this sense about "nandakanda" ? It seems closest, but with me "nanda" is always a big mistake. This or that, somehow or other etc ?
 
"I promise you will love/like it."
"You will love/like it."
To translate literally:
あなたがそれを好きになることを約束します.
あなたはそれを好きになるでしょう.
More commonly:
(それを)好きになるに違いありません.or 間違いなく(それを)好きになります.
好きになるでしょう.or 好きになります.

Can somebody please translate to English. Thank you.

"I love you."

Good Luck!!

No, ~だのだの is a set phrase, meaning "~ or something/or like that". なんだかんだ言う is used more likely for complaint. They are completely different.
 
So... I have no idea if this sentence even makes sense. I heard it while watching an Anime and I can't seem to translate it myself.

I may have heard it wrong... not sure. The sentence is:

"Haha Haro moshi Chikyū"

It's confusing to me, so... yeah... I don't know. Maybe I just heard it wrong.

If anyone is able to help, then thank you!
 
Hopefully last time I'll ask but can somebody please translate this to Japanese :)

I have been great. How have you been?
I am glad you enjoyed your stay and that your safe.
We miss you and your friends in our school. I'll never forget the fun times we had.
I can not wait to go to Japan. I am going next year with my class.
Hopefully I will see you there. I am sure I will love Japan.
I hope you come back to Australia so I can see you again.
 
This is not a free traslation service but the learning Japanese section. First you try, then we can help you.

BTW, are you going to continue to exchange letters with your pen pal through interpreters?:?
 
I kno :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: As I said its my last question :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I have already written some. I am scared to send the letter back with my efforts as my Japanese is really basic. My teacher won't help me translate anything so I don't really have anywhere left to go. I also have no understanding of Japanese slang, Kanji or katakana. And to answer your question no I am not going to use interpreters. I have not been learning for very long and already from this I have learnt a lot. So I am learning. Also this is pointing me in the right direction and by next time I should be able to reply without help :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Sorry for the trouble :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
 
I have already written some.
Then, why don't you post it here and ask to correct it instead of just asking to translate? I think it's far better to send your own Japanese sentence to them than to send OUR translation, even if you are not so confident with your Japanese.;-)
 
no, ~だのだの is a set phrase, meaning "~ or something/or like that".
好きか、愛しているとか、おまえだけだか...そういうことを言うこと ?


なんだかんだ言う is used more likely for complaint. They are completely different.
わかりました。
しかし、不平だけとはかぎりませんね。:)
 
この文脈ではそうです。
確かに。ただし、否定的なニュアンスで使われることが多いです。
多分理由などの場合もあります。

そういう例文は インターネットで見つけたんですから。:p
 
その例も否定的なニュアンスを帯びているのでは?それ が「なんだかんだ言う」と「~とか何とか言う」の用法 の違いですから。
