Need a word or phrase translated?

[Toritoribe]

"感動

sensation（勝利などによる）
throb"

I was looking up the word 感動
and one of the meanings I found was "sensation (勝利などによる)."

I've seen the term "による" used a lot but I don't quite understand the meaning.
Does it meaning "due to"?

In this dictionary trying to tell me that 感動 means sensation-sensation/feeling due to winning?

Thank you

など shows that 勝利 is an example.

I need another episode title translated from Chinese to Japanese.

夢幻革命之地

Would it be "ワンダーレボリューション" Wonder Revolution?

 

[Toritoribe]

The land of fantastic revolution

"USOTSUKITAKUNAI"
for me that translates to "i don't want/like liar"
or kinda like that...
but my question is how is "-tai" connected to a noun???
from what i learned before -tai form is used with verbs not noun..
so is that phrase awkward or did i misunderstood it???

by the way
i heard that phrase from a song

 

[undrentide]

usotsukitakunai = uso(wo) tsukitaku nai.
I do not want to tell a lie.

uso(wo)tsuku = to tell a lie.

Your misunderstanding arises from not understanding how the word "usotsuki" is formed:

Uso = lie (noun)
Uso (o) tsuku = to tell a lie (verb)

Verbs can change to nouns by changing the ending:

tsuku -> tsuki (verb to noun)

So usotsuki = liar (noun)

Okay so far? This next part is where your confusion comes from:

uso (o) tsuku -> uso (o) tsukitai -> uso (o) tsukitaku nai

Since it is common to omit the "o" it looks like the "tai" was added to a noun....if you don't know the word "usotsuki" is a noun that comes from the phrase "uso (o) tsuku".

OK.. so there was an etimology behind it...
cause all i know is its a noun...
anyways thanks for the help mike and undrentide

next title:

真正的敵人

Chinese to Japanese > Japanese to English

You see, the original version of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Mechtanium Surge has aired first in Taiwan. They use the original Japanese episode titles. It hasn't aired in Japan yet. I'm doing this for the wiki. JUST the episode titles.

maishuu no getsuyoubi -- every week monday
raishuu no getsuyoubi -- next week monday

those words can simply be said as every monday and next monday..
so my question here is "is there a term to say every monday/next monday in a simplier manner not as long as example or a way more casual to say those words??"
i know there is no such mai getsuyoubi or some kinda like that but you know.. just in case if there is something??

 

[Mike Cash]

What's long or complicated about those?

 

[naark]

I mean..
for example in English it's really seldom that you hear someone says every week Monday (or any day)
It's just every Monday, last Friday, next Thursday, this Wednesday.. etc etc
no one's really saying like this "week" Monday, next "week" Monday...etc etc
like the word week was always omitted...
So is there an expression similar to that...
Like mai getsuyoubi (I know this is wrong but just as example)

 

[Toritoribe]

毎月曜（日） "Mai getsuyō(bi)" is acceptable. 毎週月曜（日） "Maishū getsuyō(bi)" would be more common, though. Next Monday is 次の月曜（日）"tsugi no getsuyō(bi)". 来月曜（日） "Rai getsuyō(bi)" is not so common, but understandable.

Ok.. so normally you would always say maishuu or every time you want to say "every week + day"...
on the rai getsuyoubi-- you say its understandable but is it OK or acceptable to say it.. like if you're writing a poem or delivering a speech... would you use that word or is that understandable coming from a non native speaker...
another question
you say "tsugi no getsuyoubi"... so how about this monday and last monday...
"mae no getsuyoubi" and "kon getsuyoubi" are those OK or whats the casual or common way to say those??
sorry for my questions were very basic...
cause when on classes before i don't really trust my teacher cause some of her lessons were contradicting on some words
and example of those were that time expressions... cause she just follows what the book says..

 

[Toritoribe]

来月曜（日） is not common in daily use but can be used in formal document, for instance.

前の"Mae no" just means "former", so it does not always refer to "the last". 今週の[Konshū no] or 先週の[senshū no] is used depending on the situation.

今月曜（日） "Kon getsuyō(bi)" is not used. この月曜（日） "Kono getsuyō(bi)" is vague. It can mean both the last and next depending on the context.

 

[Elizabeth]

I think you can use like "この前の月曜" to mean the directly previous Monday but depending on the current point in time 今週の月曜を指すのか、先週の月曜を指すのか :?

Hi,

Can someone tell me if there is a date or year in these characters? Specifically, I want to know if it says 1954.

Thank you


Roy

 

[undrentide]

筆者：河原崎晃洞
It says 'Author: Kawarazaki Kodo'
（Kawarazaki is a family name, Kodo, a given name.)
There's no mention of date or year.

Google search result shows that many of his books (on prints and patterns?) seem to have been published in 1930s.
If you can show me the title of the book, I might be able to check when it was published.

It says 筆者, meaning "author", and then presumably the author's name. I don't see any date.

 

[sfbaywalk]

Thanks,

The woodblock artist is known in English as Shodo Kawarazaki. The original run, published by Unsodo of Kyoto , for this particular print was 1954, and it should have the year in the left margin. The absence of the year means that it is from a later run, probably using the original wood blocks.

Examples of his work. Ignore the prices; they are super-inflated.

真正的敵人

真正 (zhenzheng) 本当 (hontou)
的 (de) の (no)
敵人 (di-ren) 敵 (teki)

I did my research, so maybe 本当の敵 (honto no teki) "The Real Enemy" ?

I remember when you used to present these as polite requests for assistance. Now you just throw them out and take it for granted someone is going to do your work for you? Not even a "please" anymore?

河原崎奨堂 [Kawarazaki Shōdō] is an another artist name of 河原崎晃洞[Kawarazaki Kōdō]. (FYI, his real name is 河原崎清一 [Kawarazakin Sēichi].)

Isn't there his seal on your print?

Yes. Why didn't you that before asking us, first of all?

Can someone please translate this short episode summary | Japan Forum

Looks right to me. Could also be 真の敵.

The question was not about the name of the artist. The question was whether it is an original edition print. That can be determined by the presence in the margin of the known date for the original - 1954. For subsequent editions, the publisher Unsodo omitted the date.

Sorry -- my name got changed. I was sfbaywalk. Still me.
