Initial D 4th Stage comments... - Archive Topic (Locked)
GodZilla168:
I just want to say many many thanks to live evil with the hard work that they do at translating the anime especially Initial D 4th Stage.
I know the show was released last week or so, any idea on when you guys are ready to post 5 and 6. I know it takes time to translate and get everything right. Just curious that is all. Because I don't have access to the internet all the time so I wanted to know when it comes out so I can grab it.
THanks

Yes but with Languages such as English there is no real constant rule there are exceptions and sub rules everywhere.
*I thought I would edit to note that this has nothing to do with anything*
its like what I wrote on my friend's birthday card, "Merry year of passing day. May this year be of constant value to you"

well if i look at it this way its easier for ppl who know a latin based language to learn another latin based language.
its different for eastern cultures cuz the languages have nuthin in common at all. even the sounds and pronuncing of the words are different. but it easier for them to learn languages similar to them.
i hope in the future the world will have 1 main language or have universal translators.
oh yea the english words are there for fun. cuz it doesn't even fit in to the song. also the words don't flow with the song if the are pronunced correctly i think cuz the music is written for japanese words its like how dubs suck.
it be crazy hard for an english speaker to sing japanese words in a song too.
other then that i don't mind the intro. its all good were just over analyzing the situation.

The Eastern and western languages may come from different roots, but it is still possible for a single person to master both. I have 2 uncles who came to Canada when they were in their 20s, and both speak French without an accent.

Some of the worst engrish songs were written entirely in english. Take Hack Sign's Obsession and Sonic's Lookalike for example.

Correct. That is why there are no westerners releasing Japanese music CDs. Something like that might happen someday, but I'm fairly certain that such an artist would have mastered Japanese pronounciation beforehand.
