Help On Translating Japanese Characters

Posting to the Hello! Project members?

Well, to say you are studying Japanese:

Š¿ŽšF@@@@Ž„‚Í“ú–{Œê‚ð•×‹‚µ‚Ä‚¢‚Ü‚·.
‚Ð‚ç‚ª‚ÈF@‚í‚½‚µ‚Í‚É‚Ù‚ñ‚²‚ð‚×‚ñ‚«‚å‚¤‚µ‚Ä‚¢‚Ü‚·B

I am not sure how long you have been studying Japanese, but even for Japanese people, reading a sentence with no hiragana isn't as easy as reading one with kanji in it. You might like to keep that it mind if you are writing to the Hello! Project members. Nonetheless they will be able to understand your letter.

If you're not so good at Kanji yet, I'm sure the friendly people on this forum will help you out with any questions you have!

Good luck! (^^)

Didn't you just repeat what I wrote? I could have written it in kanji, but since he used none himself I thought stick to hiragana.

It's not that long, It's just that some terms are not the same in english.. Like "Food" It would be Fu-do or.. at least thats what someone told me.

I think I know what went wrong.. I'm trying to use an Engine word and trying to make it Japanese.. When I should be using the Japanese word and converting that into Kanji.

It says, "The white circles are where piece #12 attatches. Do not cut them out."

Hope that helps! :woot:

PS: It's 'pepakura' (=paper craft), i think, not 'pekakura'.

I know its paper craft :) But I made a small typo mistake since p and k are close together :banghead: Can help me translate this too please?

It would be time consuming to reply to it. Not everyone (able to translate it for you) may have the time. Be patient. Someone will reply eventually. Creating multiple threads regarding the same topic is like spam. ;)

This will translate for you. But since I am feeling benevolent, I'll do it.

In all honesty, Babelfish is pretty poor at translating... :puppydog:

But since I am feeling benevolent, I'll do it.

:hehe:

yah ^^;; i got most of it, exept the second to last line..babelfish really is a bad translator...>_<;; but thankyou soo soo much for translating it for me~~!!

I recommend popjisyo (http://www.popjisyo.com)

Instead of clobbering the text with an often inaccurate translation it instead gives you pop-up dictionary translations for each word. If you have an idea what something says, or can read a little japanese, this tool can be very helpful.

Thanks. I remember trying it once but couldn't recall the URL. This is going to my bookmarks section.

5 Mar 2005, 02:31 #59

There's a similar site at http://www.rikai.com. Hmmm...I never heard of popjisyo, but it looks pretty cool.

5 Mar 2005, 02:37 #60

Cool, I'll have to compare the two sites. Looks like they use a similar concept. To the bookmarks it goes! :dancing:
