Awanken Wasp Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 It's considered a polite greeting, even if it's vulgar.I swear, I'm not kidding. Ask Awanken.It's one of the most polite ways to greet someone even though it might sound vulgar. Besides it being a greeting, it's almost like multipurpose way of saying "You have my uttermost respect. Please, come live at my place anytime, eat my food, drink my drinks and please have sex with my wife. What is mine is also yours" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which, if you know linguistics, probably would explain the extremely long form you saw. In particular, I bet this is the formalized form of Telugu, which has diglossia (A formal, official form and set of grammatical rules used mostly for religion and government and a 'vulgate' used in informal settings, like on the street, in the house, or in different regions).It's from India.THE MORE YOU KNOW.Also, it is not at all nice, Ron. It's like me trying to convince you that "pendejo" in Spanish is a polite term, rather than one that will get you beaten to death. It has a wide range of meanings (pendejo), but all are highly insulting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esva Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Anyone know something better than google translate, that is a little more accurate. This morning we had a lonewolf come in that knew maybe upwards of 20 words of english and the rest japanese and was incredibly hard to comm with him as you can see , he tried to enter armed many times and even let off a few rounds which lead intot he following conversation---> [05:39] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): 停止または撃たれる ---> (Stop or be shot)[05:40] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): あなたが入力する許可を求める必要があります --> (You must seek permission to enter your)[05:40] SurfnTurf Paule: どうすれば? ---> (How do I?)[05:41] SurfnTurf Paule: どうすれば入れる? ---< (How do I put?)[05:41] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): オオカミを尋ねる ---> (Asked the wolf)[05:41] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): can i enter ?[05:41] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): それを言う ---> (Say it )[05:41] SurfnTurf Paule: can i enter ?[05:42] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): wolfbiteと呼ばれる人を求める ---> (ask people called wolfbite)[05:43] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): 申し訳ありません悪い日本人、私はトランスレータを使用する必要があります ---> (Japanese bad Sorry, I need to use a translator)[05:43] SurfnTurf Paule: はい ---> (Yes)[05:44] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): あなたの武器にしてください削除 ---> (Please remove your weapon and then)[05:44] SurfnTurf Paule: I would like to go into inside.[05:45] SurfnTurf Paule: It does not have arms. ((he still had his weapon attached))[05:46] SurfnTurf Paule: Since it is a good building, I would like to see inside. [05:46] Rykiana Ferina: あなたの訪問を拒否されました ---> (Your visit is denied )[05:46] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): コマンドによる --- > (By command)[05:46] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): ソーリー ---> (sorry)[05:47] SurfnTurf Paule: It is not bad. [05:47] SurfnTurf Paule: 何故?---> (Why?)[05:48] SurfnTurf Paule: Coward[05:48] Ryk (rykiana.ferina): 我々はあなたと通信するために苦労するので、それはです -----> (As we struggle to communicate with you, it is)[05:48] SurfnTurf Paule: 話さなくて良い ---> (I ever speaking )Then he attacked, wasnt sure if it was something in the translations or how long it was taking to translate, but yeah....anyone know of a better more accurate one than google translate ?

Agares Tretiak Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 You were very likely speaking utter gibberish to him.Japanese is context heavy, tonal, and has very few inflections if I remember correctly. I believe proper structure for a better translation to disarm would have to be structured in English this way:gun remove please(verbs must be structured to go at the end of the phrase)銃削除はしてくださいThis is overly simplified, but understandable, you'll probably find. There's no way to easily indicate "we" or a plural "you" in Japanese, once again due to context. It's difficult to be direct in reference to almost anything referring to a single individual without building plaudits and honorifics around the name first, or other highly formal, polite terms.In this case, and most hard translations, if you keep it simple and to the point with the occasional polite modifier (please, thank you, no thank you, yes please) you'll find most people respond better, even if it's obvious you're not a native speaker.http://wikitravel.org/en/Japanese_phrasebook#b might also help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmon Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) haha, I know what telugu is (after googling it when I first saw this post) I was just laughing at how out of the entire list that one stood out the most :P Edited December 8, 2011 by Disembodied Hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
