Ever try this site: http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/`jwb/wwwjdic.html ?

Nope. >>tries<<

Hmmm, for Rina, I got –эì.

For peace, I got ˜aŠy.

I found a Japanese Translator and here peace is Piisu.

Have I hit the mark?

I think his name dictionary is accessible via the drop down menu at the top of this page too (JDict-Names), but I have found it most convenient just to pull the entire dictionary into my editor and use regexp searches.

There's also that cool one that's a plug-in for Firefox, Rikachan (sp?)...

Rikaichan :) I believe we talked about it in a different thread. I believe it also uses Breen for it's database. So it's the same info, just different interfaces.

Hmm, I think –эì is "mousaku" (crops), not sure how you got that one for Rina. Rina is not spelled that way in the name dictionary.

Yes, ˜aŠy "waraku" is peace, but I think it has more of the connotation of "harmony". Maybe the kanji •½˜a "heiwa" might be more like the English word "peace". •½˜a is used in many Japanese words for things like peace movement and Peace Corps.

Yup. Just in case someone missed it in the other thread.

I've tried to translate my name on a Yahoo site, and my name in Japanese is: Noriko Kajuji. Sound fun! :naughty:

My name Johnny Thao and I learned how to write my name Katakana and this is how I wrote it in katakana, but this is in english alphabet.
ta o jo n e -
But I'm not sure if it's correct, so if anyone can translate my name correctly, please reply to me with the correct symbol's or alphabet spelling. :woot:

Not 100% sure, but...

thao: ƒ^ƒI
johnny: ƒWƒ‡ƒj[

Thao? Half-Vietnamese desu ne? :P

Oh yeah I'm not Vietnamese I'm Hmong/Hmoob/ (Miao's are what the Chinese call us, because we had a land affair with them back in the A,D's). My last name is really Thoj, but it is pronounced Thow (Th..ao..w).


Thank's anyway's. :woot:

"Little King"? Cool name! ^____^ Here is it: ¬‚³‚±‚­‚¨‚¤ (chiisa kokuou) or ¬‚³‰¤—l (chiisa ousama). :)

If you have time, I think you should learn Japanese. It's quite interesting. :D And you know, Japanese culture is really attractive.

someone told me the equivalent of my name is "Satonaka Ran." anyone know what that means?

anyone know the definition of my name? "Mai"?????...

"Satonaka Ran"? How beautiful! :woot: I think this is it: —¢’†—–. Sato = village, naka = inside, ran = orchid --> Orchid that grows inside the village. :applaud:

"Mai". I'm not sure about it, maybe this is it: –ƒˆß - it means "linen robe".
