This made me LOL so much. Parle-toi français, Cin? EDIT: Best in my class. J'ai un cent dans ma classe.
So, here's the thing. I'm translating a novel from English to French. Well, a novel translated from Japanese to English. The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya. I'm not even done with chapter 1, but I want to see how my grammar is. The English version can be found here. Here's the parts that I've done so far:
... That was friggin' funny!
Interesting. If there's any translation help you need, just ask. Ore-wa dekiru-kara!
Wuz goin' on? Where mah PM!?
Oh crap. Does this mean I should stop messing with my time machine? jk Some weeks, time is nearly stopped. Others, go extremely quickly. This week? The fault lines are beating me.
Between the hours of 10:45 and 1:40, Grey-Girl passed away at the age of 22. Farewell, Grey-Girl.
Mine's Leinahtan.
「いいって？」 それが変な日本語だよ。「いい」だけでいい。
へへ。知らなかったな、俺。名前の色を知っていないからな。
うん、「する」っていいです。あなたはアドミンじゃないのですか？俺たちより大切なのだから、丁寧語を使わなくていいですよ。
あ、なるほど。でも、なぜ、お前は「します」を使ったのか、総司令官？
Eh? What do you mean, Darkandroid? え？どう言う意味だ、ダルクアンドロイドさま？
'Sokay. She's still alive, right now. I did it 'cuz... I love Japanese. 大丈夫。彼女はまだ生きている。 やった理由が・・・日本語が大好きだから。
Yeah, I'm fine. I just can't get around the fact that she's not long for this world. We're thinking of taking her to the doctor to get her a quicker, more painless death. My family has a nack for having pets with ridiculously long lifespans. My aunt had 2 cats who were 25! Thank you for you concern :3 @Forsaken ... Beats me. XD
My cat is dying. Of what? Extremely old age. She's 22. That's old for cats. 俺の猫は死ぬところだ。何のおかげで？大変古過ぎるんだ。彼女は２２歳だ。猫にとって、それは古い。
Agreed. I felt very strange sometimes during it. Like my eyes couldn't keep up with my brain. Other than that, it was pretty good. Also, I see a sequel.
Actually... I just downloaded that. Found it on Wikipedia. So far, so good.
With what? Norton Antivirus doesn't do it.
Okay then. Attempted to view a video. Didn't have the right stuff. Downloaded "right stuff." Right stuff turns out to be ad-ware. ... I feel REALLY stupid right now. Any suggestions? ... I mean, besides, reformatting my laptop.
