Translation

mangagirl__13 · 12 Dec 2005

Please, could a generous person be able to translate this for me?

It's the menu from a game I tried to play for a long time, but as I still can't understand perfectly, it's getting frustrating... ^ ^; Too bad nobody even translated it in french or english...

In the same order:

-Start New Game
-"Date him"
-Double Date
-Continue

Is this from a yaoi game or something?

NANGI · 12 Dec 2005

first line is "new start".
second is "date with boyfriend".
third is "date with boyfriend and other couple". sorry, I can't good explain.:sorry:
fourth is "continue".

WOW! O O This is great! You can actually read it? Thank you SO MUCH!

*very impressed they can translate so easily*

Don't you guys know somebody that could make game translation?

kumo · 12 Dec 2005

In case you care for the Japanese reading...

-shinki sutaato
-kareshi to deeto
-daburu deeto
-kontinyuu

Those are kanjis right? o o I can't read kanjis yet ^ ^ loll

*read what kumo-sama wrote* No, too bad it doesn't come from a yaoi game... Only a dating simulation game, where for once the character you play is a girl and not a boy ^ ^... those games are pretty popular in japan, right?

Well, anyway, there is no official translation, but i wanted to ask: would somebody know a person or group that makes free fan-translation for games? it's as shame it was never translated, it's not very very long...

Like those really long sentences, what do they mean actually? *confused*

kumo · 12 Dec 2005

I know many people who can translate Japanese games, but noone who accepts requests or work for free.

As for your new picture:
-something about changing clothes for the new season (not sure what the "meyasu ni narimasu" means here...)
-It's fun to step on fallen leaves, huh?
-It's kinda romantic, huh

and the transliteration:
-koromogae jiki no meyasu ni narimasu ne
-ochiba bumitte tanoshii desune (I assume 踏み suffers 連濁 in this case? Any native speaker could confirm this?)
-nanka romanchikku desuyone

Wow, thanks a lot again...! Arigato gozaimasuuuu! ^ ^

hmmm, too bad thay don't accept request or do it for free lol... but you know, I can't blame them either ^ ^ Maybe I'm trying to take the easier way by wanting it translated but, I should just... carry on, on learning japanese 'till I understand the game, lol.

Say, how much time of learning and pratice you needed to be able to understand what was written on the picture I sent? o o *curious*

Well, I've been studying for about 3 years now, but I think I could understand that picture even 1~2 years ago. Also take into consideration that languages are not exactly my strong point, as you can see from my posts

It's sort of like saying in English "It's getting to be that time of year again when we have to start changing clothes (for the season, presumably winter in this case)."

"Suffers" 連濁? Lol. Do you really think that hurts the word? Or do you just find it annoying?

epigene · 12 Dec 2005

Aside from the argument on whether it is "hurts" or is "annoying," I think it is read "ochiba fumi" and not "ochiba bumi."

It doesn't sound natural--don't ask me why...

Glenn · 12 Dec 2005

Probably because it's [[ochi ha] fumi], and not [ochi [ha fumi]]. Although I must say I can't make much sense out of the second one. The first would be "stepping on fallen leaves," and the second would have to be something like "falling while stepping on leaves," I guess. That's if my memory of morphology and compound words serves me correctly.

Yeah, yeah, I know... Just couldn't think of a better word at the moment, though I must say I find 連濁 quite annoying.

IME changes おちばぶみ automatically to 落ち葉踏み while おちばふみ changes to 落ち葉ふみ. That's why I thought there was 連濁 in this case.

Glenn · 12 Dec 2005

Interesting, because I get 落ち葉踏み when I input "ochibafumi" and 落ち葉部美 when I input "ochibabumi."

Looking at this again it appears as though my memory failed me miserably. It could also be that this isn't the same sort of case that I was thinking of, but either way it's probably best just to ignore the quoted text. :sorry:

mangagirl__13 · 13 Dec 2005

Did you guys learned japanese by yourselves? Or did you took courses perhaps?

^ ^ *curious*

I know I ask lots of things but do you know what is written on my tarot card? o O As usual, I don't get a thing...

Please? :?
