Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread

Tnx for your help.
So one Super Saiyan appears in 1000 years.
But does this happen every 1000 years or did it just happen ones.
That's what I meant by 1 or more Super Saiyans

Vegeta, Goku, Trunks, Gohan, Goten, and more eventually turn into Super Saiyans. Trunks, Gohan, and Goten are not pure Saiyans so I am not sure if they should be counted as true Super Saiyans, and many do not seem to think that 1 every 1000 quite makes sense. This topic is a general discussion, and unfortunately you cannot tell from the original and translated manga. (DB#24, P52)

Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread

Hey guys, I'm sure you can help me with this little sentence I was able to translate with nearly no knowledge. Contextwise I can think of what the second sentence is going to say, but I want to be sure.


Just about the two lower sentences.

"She doesn't wear her glasses during school. In her spare time..."

... well something again with her glasses, i know she wears them in her spare time. But I can't unscramble the をかけます-part.
PS: English also isn't my native ;)

Thank you!

Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread

You're actually on the right track there. That's the only thing that sentence says:

Doesn't wear her glasses at school but wears them in private.

かける (かけます), which is literally "to hang", is the verb for "wearing [glasses]". And を is a particle that marks an object, in this case 'glasses'.

Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread

Thank you very much, Mr. Prince!
I was searching for かけ and saw かける in the extended results with a fitting possible translation (to put on), but well...
If it doesn't derails the thread to far away, could you explain the connection between かけます and かける? I'm just curious ;)

Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread

kakeru (かける) is what you could call the "basic form" in Japanese. That's the verb form you will find in a dictionary, thus it's often referred to as "dictionary form".
kakemasu (かけます) is in general honorific speech ["allgemeine Höflichkeitsform" in German], it uses the verb stem, kake (かけ), in the so-called renyoukei and adds the suffix -masu (ます).

Might sound way more difficult than it really is but that's the whole story behind it.

-> Simply put: basic form vs. (general) honorific form

Hi, Ana :)
Other members may avoid viewing/downloading unknown files hosted at other sites when you only post a link without any comments.

Typing JP txt and/or uploading a very small file at MH in spoiler tags would always be helpful.
If you are a beginner translator, please feel free to start using the main board as well: txt in question + context + your translation+ your questions

やっぱり(just as I thought)目を合わそうとしない(He avoids eye contact)
何か (a little) <--- 何か気まずい=少し気まずい
前に(to the front)移動(move) Depends on the words right after 移動, 前(front<--location) can be 以前(in the past <-- time)

@ TNT

えらく=とても very
ごついのに=大きいのに to something or someone big
かわっちまったな=かわってしまった has changed /turned/replaced/

You can translate the sentence in different ways depends on the context. Examples: XXX has changed to a really big one. XXX is replaced by an enormous one. We have a big one this time. A big one is in charge this time. Any way, I am guessing that there was something small first, and then a big one showed up. (I don't expect this but, if there is no change in size, のに can be "although" instead of "to." Then you will have a totally different translation for it.)

The first text is from this page: http://mangafox.me/manga/junjou_romantica/v13/c002/1.html
The black hair boy is holding a yaoi dvd wrote by the white hair man. This yaoi dvd is inspired in his love life and the white hair man is his boyfriend.

Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread

Here is a rough translation. Usagi is jealous and so manipulative... Poor Misaki.

Usagi/Top: Give(or bring) this to him.
Usagi:Isn't it great? (Literal TL - See? Don't you think it is well made? )
Misaki:Usagi-san, can I destroy this right now? I have a right to do it, don't I?
