Book 2 Chapter 4

Post by ShadowZeroHeart »

Finally starting on Chapter 4... at the expense of homework and SnS... Darn!!

Anyways, anyone knows what is the translation for 彈舌頭? For now I shall be using "licks his lips lightly".
God!!
You need not forgive me.
For those I love,
The violence brought about by sinful men
Shall now be used once more.
If you were created to save this world,
If there is a single shred of hope left for the future of mankind,
I am very sorry, but, please begone!

LOLz... SnS is really tough... And in comparison, I would say it is not as exciting as KnS, or as interesting. Okay, another thing to ask... What is the bloody translation for "示現流"? Is it Jigen-Ryu? It is some form of martial arts I think... ^^" Gee, am i supposed to know everything??

Part 1 uploaded.
3 parts to this chapter. And part 3 is like 5 or 6 pages. So basically I labelled it as 45% done already.

And behold!!
Kazuma is very anxious, yet the movement of a shadow is even swifter than Kazuma.

It is a shadow indeed.
MUAHAHA!! Shadows rule!! I beat Kazuma and Ayano hands down! I bet I don't even need hands!! MUAHAHA!!
God!!

I got it. The translation is 'click his tongue'.

Just checked the Jpn text. You are right. The furigana is Jigenryuu.

I checked it against the Japanese text, which is 舌打ちする. Then I check its meaning using a Japanese dictionary...

I tried doing a search on the internet with the chinese text, but the translation is not easy to find >"<
Knowing what it means and finding a term to express it isnt easy... Darn the many online websites, why can't one or two of them have that translation?

Well...perhaps this term is not that common in Chinese? Or perhaps the Chinese dictionary isn't that good? Anyway, why don't you try to find a Chinese learning forum or something like that to ask translation questions? Cuz that's what I am doing, except that it is a Jpn learning forum. The moderators really helped me a lot. :D

By the way, the 一搭一唱 is quite tricky. It is not a common word in Japanese as well. :| I've asked the forum. Once the mods reply I'll post it over there...

So far, at the moment, this is the only forums i pay attention to. The term isn't that common in Chinese indeed, and even though I can know the meaning, there is no proper translation online at the moment. And even less likely to have one in a Chinese-English dictionary. Besides... I don't have any Chinese->English dictionary, that is why I stick to online translation searchs.
