Project "the brilliant green on Kyoto": multi-translation ?

I wanted to suggest a thing: what about us making a translation of the famous bonus on "music video collection '98-'08" released past 20 February ... "the brilliant green on a Kyoto trip" ?!

Everyone who wants to help could contribute on this ! We could make it first in English and then why not in French and Spanish ! For my part I can help in these 3 languages (mainly in French) but of course we need first a great help for Japanese language by the 2 translators of this forum: mikanomoide and hidebow !

However if the 2 translators really can't help, we need at least to have a written text in Japanese (better if it's on romanji too) of what is said on this bonus !! I'm sure there are really great moments we miss ('cause of the Japanese language we can't understand ) with Ryo, Shunsaku, Tommy and most of all Ittchan !!

So what do you all think ? ^^

Great idea.
I can translate to Norwegian!

Indeed it will be nice too for Norway fans ! ^^

I can help with spanish, but I don't have the DVD with the kyoto live ToT

Good idea, I hope it can be done. It would be nice also to do all the PV commentaries, but I fear this is asking a little too much...

yeah it will be nice for all the Spanish fans too, I could help you too ! ^^
Ahh but it's not a live !! It's buriguri walking on the streets and going to some restaurants of Kyoto !

@ Sneakglove: yes I hope too !

Please "mikanomoide" and "hidebow", answer on this topic !!

OK, I will do it step by step
Here we go.

Ryo 　たまたまやん
Ittchan 今ここで働いてんの
Tommy そんな

（5:40)
Ryo いただきます。あっ　美味しい。

It is OK?
Next is the curry part.

Thanks hidebow, that is great. But my translation tool is bad, and it is bit non-sensical when translated into English. But still, it is a good start!

Thanks hidebow I will check that later !

Just a question because I don't remember well: doesn't the video have more dialogs in these first 5-6 minutes than what you put hidebow ?
It seems so ... right now I particularly think on the railway station, but maybe I'm wrong !

Anyway I have to check again the video for the moment !!


EDIT: I checked together with my brother up to 5:40 min and he confirms that there are missing talks during these moments:
"(2:30)
Tommy あー美味しかった。
Shun 食べましたね。
Ryo 焼いた　焼いた。
　　　すき焼いたね。　すきに焼いた。"
here for example Tommy speak while and after Ryo is talking.

and
"(3:37)
Ryo 雨やね（雨ですね）
Tommy 嫌ですね。
Shun Ittchan　何してんの？
Tommy Ittchan? どうしたの？
Ittchan 今ここで働いてるの。"
here before that Shun and Tommy speak to Ittchan, all three are talking a little bit more.

is it right hidebow ?

I would like to help, but I don't speak Japanese, unfortunately... I can help doing the Spanish translation aswell.

btw, I've always wondered who that other "chubby" guy was, is he a fan or someone at their company?

yes thanks for your help !! ^^

The name of the guy is "Ittchan", he's a good friend of our 3 talented musicians !!

Indeed, and he also makes a very brief appearance under the slightly different name of "Ichi-chan" in the Super Terra 2000 DVD.

Would I be correct in saying that "Ichi-chan" translates to "1 friend" or maybe "Number 1 friend", and that maybe "ittchan" is short for "Itchi-chan"?

yes it's correct to say that I think, as if him being their "best" friend !

Ittchan 今ここで働いてるの。
I work here now.

（5:40)
Ryo いただきます。あっ　美味しい。
いただきます = (There is not a suitable sentence in English)
(This is greetings to do before a meal = ITADAKIMASU)
Ah! It is delicious.

Hi, thanks all. Please tell me your opinion. thanks to mikanomoide そんな感じでまたお願いします。
In the beginning part. They came back to Kyoto. but they lost their way.
because of the repair of Kyoto Station.

(0:18)Shun and Ryo "kotsuchi?"(this way?)
(3:14) a staff ask to Ryo. "jimoto desyo?"(you are from here right?)
(Ryo) "zenzen wakarahen"(kansai accsent) zenzen wakarimasen (correct japanese)
( I don't get it at all)

This is the japanese text of the curry part.
I think this is hard to understand, but funny Let's try it.

Thanks to kilix and mikanomoide. I edited it.

Well I have a lot of things to say but I will only start with some:

mikanomoide wrote:(2:30)
...
Ryo 焼いた　焼いた。
　　　すき焼いたね。　すきに焼いた。
すき焼 ＳＵＫＩＹＡＫＩ
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukiyaki

mikanomoide "sukiyaki" it's "すき焼き" and not すき焼 !
Then you didn't translate at all what Ryo is saying !
Indeed he's saying "yaita yaita. sukiyaitane. sukiniyaita." and it's hard to translate, surely he's saying that the food he ate was too much cooked so he says "it was burnt it was burnt." ... but then I can't understand the second part with the "suki" thing !! Please help, thank you !

mikanomoide wrote:(3:37)

What a bummer..

- First, there is a little mistake by hidebow, it's Shunsaku who is talking not Ryo.
- Then Shun is saying "amedesune" which is an interrogative form, so a good translation will be "it's raining ?" or more simply "rain ?".
- Tommy here doesn't say such a strong word like "bummer", she's saying "iyadesune." which means "that's awful no ?" talking about the fact that maybe it will start to rain (and she hates the rain ^^) !

Am I right mikanomoide ? ^^

hidebow I already did a comment about your first part in Japanese, indeed I reported that you missed some texts, but you didn't answer me ... please read my post just after your first one on this thread ! Thanks !!

"yaita yaita. sukiyaitane. sukiniyaita."
It's a cheap joke, and then I have not good translation.
"sukiyaki" "look like burnt it"

>mikanomoide "sukiyaki" it's "すき焼き" and not すき焼 !
oops! Don't jump the gun.

Do not judge it strictly in Japan。

>Am I right mikanomoide ? ^^

Fair enough.

**It looks like she takes a movie.
**She give instructions for Ittchan.

Ok thanks a lot mikanomoide for your explanations and translations !
Thanks to hidebow too, most of all for your edits !!

However it seems that the road is long for a correct English translation of this Kyoto trip, there are lot of wordplays and mistranslations are so easy to do !!

ganbare !

Yesterday I wanted to start the translation of all of this with the help of my brother (he's a Japanese student, he only did 1 year of school for the moment ^^) but it seems that there are lot of omissions and even some faults !! We noticed that while watching the bonus !!
So I will put the changes and all that is missing, below, in red and on romanji !

Please "hidebow" can you confirm that my changes are correct ? Thanks !

I really wonder if it's useful to continue if there are such "omissions" !?!

In the situation that some the people can speak,
The omission of a small sound doesn't give whole the influence.
This place is not a class of Japanese.
I am not a Japanese teacher for French person also.
You seem to worry about a small details.
You should do after this. You can do it

kilix wrote:I really wonder if it's useful to continue if there are such "omissions" !?!

I agree with what hidebow has to say, you really do ask a lot.

You really should be a little more respectful to the two guys who are helping you in their own spare time. Not everybody has all day free to do things like this. Please be more patient and grateful to hidebow and mikanomoide for the work they have done already.

Nope. Just be careful of how you speak to other people, especially when they are doing you/us a favour.
