Looking for... - RunUO

Japanese translator.

We're looking for someone willing to translate Japanese for us.

The stuff we need translated is heavy on the Kanji.

Said person needs to be fluent in both English and Japanese, and have a large UO-related vocabulary.

Please send applications via Email in my sig.

Thanks!

Hmm, put it into the format of Subject<Direct Object< Indirect object<Phrase Backwards<verb and i believe that any basic web translator will give you the proper translation (it usually direct translates so if you stick it in the sentence structure it will do it right).

Don't use Google Translator for Japanese...it comes out horribly smushed. (As does everything else...don't use Google Translator for diplomatic purposes...tenses kill it.)

This is much better than any of the web translators, but it is still hard to figure out the meanings sometimes.
Good luck in finding a nice japanese/english person that speaks both language relatively fluent AND has Ultima Online experience. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack. :P

yeah I wish I could speak it fluently, I can understand the main contextual idea and order food, that's about it...

**ASayre** · 06-20-2006, 01:19 AM

None of those would work - software still can't replace someone who can understand context and such.

Need a person :\

I do UO in long years several and am well informed also about the
term.
I hope the adoption by all means.

A requirement is also being fluent enough in english to be able to read and follow instructions in the original post

kato1123 · 06-21-2006, 04:56 AM

Of course, the instruction is heard.
The rule is observed. To adopt it, should I E-mail?
Moreover, is individual information necessary?
