Welcome! Please enjoy your stay. Our system is semi-functional and utterly disjunctional but it somehow works. Throw enough resources at anything and it somehow works. Glad to have you on board~ Seit (talk) 16:41, 16 March 2013 (CDT)


I saw you do some edits: " . m Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei:Tome 3 Chapitre 1‎; 10:41 . . (0)‎ . . ‎Multipartite (Talk | contribs)‎ (ninjitsu -> ninjutsu ) "

but the real spelling is really "ninjitsu". "ninjutsu " has become embedded to us incorrectly because the way we speech - I'm sure of it- since I had to do about it project-I mean about this word

Arere? I saw some spellings of 'ninjitsu' in the English (and one in the French) volumes, but it's 'ninjutsu' in the first (English--ah, and also French) volume; also, the word according to WWWJDIC is '忍術 【にんじゅつ】 (n) {MA} ninjutsu (fighting art of the ninja); ninja skills in secrecy, stealth and combat techniques'. That's 'jutsu', '術', 'art; technique; skill; means; trick; resources; magic'. The same 'jutsu' as in 'bijutsu', 'kenjutsu', 'gijutsu'. In modern Japanese, the word is definitely represented as じゅつ, not じつ, and the translation project is of volumes written in modern Japanese. If it was originally 'jitsu', I would be glad to learn about the details of your project and the history of the word, but the hiragana presently used are not affected. As I do not usually look at the non-English translations (and am not familiar with any differing translation approaches used there) I can likely overlook differences in the French volumes as long as they are consistent across all French volumes.


Thanks

Hey, wanted to say thanks for correcting my errors on the NGNL talk page. It's nice to actually get some real criticism on my translations rather than someone with even less knowledge on the subject than myself for a change. Helps me learn and improves the readability/accuracy all-around. Should also check out the terminology page if you get bored, aha. —EnigmaticRepose (talk) 02:56, 4 August 2013 (CDT)
