The Gare and Elin Translate It Out: keikaku means plan

[Gypsy]

I can't read that! I understand very very little french. (Just about 25 words probably) but I like french music.

Bla bla bla life is pointless, no matter what you do nothing changes bla bla bla. Typical French bullshit.

Edit: This is like, Funeral Doom with bits of Death. No clue if you like that kind of thing.

[Elin]

Et un matin, tu t’éveilleras mais rien n’aurá changé
Tes actes, insatiables, seront toujours d’une parfaite futilité
Que tes mots, en cent éclats tremblants, porteront comme fardeau.
Et ni les murs, ni la pluie observe de ta fenêtre, n’y répondront
Tu resteras ainsi, condamné, impuissant… prisonnier de ton existence
Et les jours, eux-mêmes, deviendront de échos… et tes cris resteront sans réponse.

;__;

So just like Scotland!

Elin confirm/deny?

Elin confirm/deny?

Pretty much.

There's also the fact that a large chunk of the text in videogames is either dialogue or narration, both of which tend to be fairly universal in style across language. Prose, though? Not so much. Japanese fiction reads reaaaaaally differently to English fiction, and even translating a short story is a big effort.

Makes sense.

Yeah I had to switch to something uplifting. By which I mean a bit less depressing.

Different song than what I mentioned.

You people and your languages.

I've just resolved myself to being an English only speaker for the rest of my life.

At least the US and Canada are big enough that I can do some serious traveling without needing a new language.

Hell, I ended up speaking mostly English when I was in Germany and Italy, too. We were mostly on the tourist track anyway, and no on seemed interested in speaking German with me. I wasn't that terrible!

England and Australia too! Hint Australia > England. To visit at least, I wouldn't want to live in Australia for a lot of reasons.

Ok I usually can't watch YouTube but this is relevant to my interests so I'll download it.

PS: ZOMG 11 minutes!!!

But I have an English boyfriend who can do all the talking. I have no advantages in Australia. And as cute as the wildlife can be I'm not terribly interested in visiting a place that gets to be 40+ Celsius.
