 Master Your Japanese!
« Thread Started on May 31, 2011, 3:48am »

Here is a fun little game where I will post phrases and you can use any type of resource to translate it. Hopefully, we will all learn a some of the Japanese language in the process!

Here is how the points system will work:

1. 10 points: If you get the exact phrase
2. 5 points: 1-2 errors or if you get synonyms of the phrase
3. 4 points: 3-4 errors
4. 3 points: 5-6 errors
5. 1 point: 7 or more errors
Finally... 6. 0 points: got nothing right

When you think you have the phrase, post it and I will tell you if it is 100% right or not. When somebody gets a 100% match, I will post the answer, the points earned, and the team rankings. If you want to join a team, PM me with your partner and team name. I will add you to the rankings. Individuals are fine, too.
Your first challenge:

あなたの答えを発見 !

Good luck!

Very close; today I'll count it.

The Answer was:

Ironic, huh?

Your next challenge:(I gave you one word to use, as I don't actually know how many people know this one.)

不在 fonder に。

This is weird; when I put up the post modfier, the Japanese comes up as numbers and symbols.

I know, google translator sucks. :P It make basic translation but you need to fix gramatical mistakes. Example i asked it to translate sentence ''I am cooler that''. In my language it sounded like this ''I am fridge'' .

Haha I'm actually trying to do these w/o Google Translate but I dunno half the bloody Kanji :P

You should try a few Japanese riddles where translating them into English does nothing 8-)

Well, I use http://www.kakanow.com/. Considering I made this game, you will probably get the most accurate answers. Sorry I couldn't get to you earlier. Power is out and my phone's 3G was not good. Also: Yes, you may use ANY translator, and nobody has gotten the phrase yet. If nobody gets it by tomorrow, then I will post the answer and give out the deserved points.

Oh, fine.
The real answer was:
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Here are the current rankings:

1. Tech Warrior (15 points)
2. KWill15 (4 points)
3. Explode917 (4 points)
(KWill15 is in Second Place because he posted first. Explode, I used your more accurate answer.)

Your next challenge:
