QUOTE(mindfaQ @ Jul 28 2014, 16:46)  @Thira: Can you explain, why the 階 does not appear in the romanization? (if you have the time for it) "うえ/した" is a colloquial expression of "上階/下階". Also you can say "上階/下階" is literary Japanese or arbitrarily used substitute characters for "うえ/した". It's like you don't read "五月蝿い" as "ごがつはえい" but read as "うるさい". Actually, "じょうかい/かかい" is never used in conversational sentences. QUOTE(freudia @ Jul 27 2014, 19:53)  Edit: You should have linked to the cover because the ruby characters provide a reading different from what one would expect. Seems you don't get what "下階(した)" means? This post has been edited by Thira: Jul 29 2014, 13:55

I'd like to have a few lines checked on this page. They were kind of confusing to me.: 1) だからあんたが尻尾触るからだって言ってんじゃん: It’s because you touched my tail. Didn’t I say that? [I'm a bit confused on how the two halves of the sentence come together (the parts before and after から) to make a logical sentence that makes sense in context.] 2) だって今日詩鳥がゼミコンで居ないからさ: Because today, a little song bird [referring to her I assume] won’t be at her seminar. [I don't really get 詩鳥 and ゼミコン; it seems like "poem bird" and some "seminar + conference(?)" to me.] 3) それで物足りないからあたしってこと? [The word order is confusing me. It looks like "Because you're not satisfied with this, me?", so clearly I am misunderstanding how the あたしってこと is supposed to fit in. I would have thought she was starting another clause (for example, "Because you're not satisfied with this, you keep making me do this stuff" or something), but the lack of ellipsis or something like that makes that questionable to me.] Also, regarding the line 「なんでわかんの」 on this page, who わかんの and what does he/she わかんの? And lastly, can anyone successfully read the first kanji in the second last panel? I see that 無いな follows it, but I can't see the first character. Thanks again for any help.

You should read the sentence like this: だから{あんたが尻尾触るからだ}って言ってんじゃん, so it's "I already told you {it's because you touched my tail.}" QUOTE 2) だって今日詩鳥がゼミコンで居ないからさ: Because today, a little song bird [referring to her I assume] won’t be at her seminar. [I don't really get 詩鳥 and ゼミコン; it seems like "poem bird" and some "seminar + conference(?)" to me.]
For ゼミコン: [ detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp] http://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/qu...ail/q1488783394For 詩鳥, I think it's the name of another girl (but don't ask me how it's supposed to be pronounced). And it makes more sense that way story-wise, as it means "since the other girl's not here (since she's at the ゼミコン), I'm not satisfied with doing it just once with you (since I also usually do it with her)". QUOTE 3) それで物足りないからあたしってこと? [The word order is confusing me. It looks like "Because you're not satisfied with this, me?", so clearly I am misunderstanding how the あたしってこと is supposed to fit in.

{それで物足りないから}あたし[とセックスする]ってこと? Does that help? QUOTE Also, regarding the line 「なんでわかんの」 on this page, who わかんの and what does he/she わかんの? "How does he know where it feels good for me?" QUOTE And lastly, can anyone successfully read the first kanji in the second last panel? I see that 無いな follows it, but I can't see the first character. I sure can't.

That's an SFX, not a word. From tonigobe's sfx guide: nichi, nichit- (にちっ)= slimy [ni] + high pitch or small smac kingsound or flicking [chi]. [Ref: Mai-HiME doujin,High Class Soap Girl, Mai-chanby Ripe1 Egg] (Tonigobe SFX: squelch,schwik, schlik). Link here

It's not about Japanese comprehending but... I have few questions.
1.What words do you use for 'ひっ’ (in the sex scene). EEK? Or just 'Hii'?
2.And what do you think about translating 'んぶ’(Moaning) into 'Mmbh'? Do you think it's awkward?
3.Would it look awkward if I use SFX *SQUIRT* for male ejaculation?

Depends on which sex scene. If it's a simple vanilla sex scene, then it's probably just a "Hng!" If (s)he's getting raped by tentacles, and suddenly sees that a ten-inch-thick tentacle is going to penetrate her, then it's probably "Eek!" QUOTE 2.And what do you think about translating 'んぶ’(Moaning) into 'Mmbh'? Do you think it's awkward?
No, I think it's okay. QUOTE 3.Would it look awkward if I use SFX *SQUIRT* for male ejaculation?
I personally don't use words to describe SFX when possible, I'd rather use something that sounds like the actual SFX. *shpurt*, *shplurt*, *spurt* (even though it's a word, it's so close to the actually sound I sometimes use it), *splurt*... *squirt* is a bit too far from the sound in my opinion, so I wouldn't use it, but it would definitely not shock me if I saw it in a translation.

I think that would be a "journalism club".

Hey gang, I could use a second opinion for this bubble (attached). "Yabai" is obvious enough, but is that first bit "Hekiage?" How would you guys translate this? QUOTE(XeroDL @ Aug 6 2014, 03:40)  Your link is broken. UF

Sorry for the double post, but the "Edit" button was giving me grief. I've got another trouble spot, and this one's quite a bit rougher. I'm working on a very old, LQ Viper RSR doujin. Most of the text is readable, but this box from the first page is killing me. The second and third vertical lines are where I'm struggling most. "Ka-ra mo, yahari *** no biyaku ni ha * tezu," I'd love any help I can get filling in those missing kanji. UF

淫美蟲 and 勝. I'm 100% sure of 勝, but I must confess I'm not really sure about the other ones. This post has been edited by KirbyDances: Aug 7 2014, 00:41
