Greetings, traveller!

I'm an English to German translator as well as English/German editor for the projects I take an interest in and Oda Nobuna no Yabou (Deutsch)'s one-man-army. Oh, and I do a lot of coding and small changes to my sites... I'm trying to figure out how I like it best. Please bear with me.

In everyday-life I'm confronted with complex German texts all the time and with English texts (wouldn't call them complex) hobby-wise (books, games, movies, music).

About my edits

I'm reading through the texts I'm assigned to and try to edit everything I spot as wrong.

I will refrain from editing names or phrases which might be uncommon, but in a sense usable. In my opinion this unusual English does represent the feel of Japanese light-novels in a way.
If I do edit something in the way former mentioned, I will contact the TL prior to that.

If you spot any wrong edits from me, by all means tell me! I want to avoid something like that in the future.

About my translations

I'll try to stick to the exact words where possible.

However, if there's a need to vary the words in order to conserve the intention of the sentence/phrase, I will do so.

As there is often more than one way to translate sentences/phrases, you might naturally disagree with my chosen one. Deal with it.

Feedback/Questions/Critics where?

Feel free to use the Discussion function on my page or use one of my contact methods mentioned below.

  • Sakurasou on hold until new chapters need editing or I've got the time to edit
    everything apart from the already edited chapters 3 & 4 of volume 4 as well as
    chapter 1 of volume 5.
  • OdaNobuna (DE) on hold until I've got the mood or it appears to be popular demand.
  • Campione! (DE) Volume 1 can't be translated completely due to chapter 2 & 4 being reserved. It's no use to translate it without being able to achieve a fulltext.
