ばか！バカ！　馬鹿ー月！

Hi! Me again

well, while translating Vol. 2 Chap 6. I found a word which I don't know, nor the dictionary... here's is the paragraph and the word in bold:

“Geez...what a laidback guy. Can’t tell me anything he’s thinking about.” Fouquet spoke silently in disgust.

it happens as soon as Wardes dissapears.

thx!

It's supposed to be hyphenated: laid-back

It means relaxed and easy-going.
=Smidge=

well, thx have it clear now

and an off-topic question, for those who have read the novels and watched the anime:

In the anime, the first season, the fourth chapter is entitled "The Crisis of the Maid", sth like that... and it is where Siesta is 'hired' by Count Motte and Saito goes to rescue her... Well, my question is: Does this happen in the novels?? If so, in what part (novel) it occurs??

Thx!

Season 1, episode 4 of the anime is a filler episode...

as in...its not in the novels (sorry )

actually...the anime has alot of filler episodes...
hell, the third season is like 90% filler lame comedy and boob jokes....and 10% actual plot from the novels...

oh, I wanted to hear that...

well, here I come with another question...:

The Dragon's Raiment is a Zero Fighter (Mitsubishi A6M Zero). While translating to Spanish, I don't know how to translate "fighter". I found out that the translation for this in Spanish is "caza". Is it right to write "El Caza Zero"?? Do you agree with that?

It would be hard for us to judge since I personally have no clue of the spanish language.

But the point is the plane itself is called Zero. Kind of like how we would call the F-22 the Raptor kind of thing.

We add Zero fighter (note the non capital 'f' in fighter) to tell what it is, and it is not part of the pronoun of the plane so to speak.

But that's just my 2 cents.

well, I looked it up at wikiped and for this plane it is used the 'F'; however, when referring not to a specific one, it is used the 'f'. maybe wikiped isn't the brightest site to consult, but i leave the entry for this here. but, to make it easier... the role of these planes was the same as the little ones airships' in star wars??? i mean, like scouts but attacking??
thx!!!

The term "caza" is a correct one, which means fighter or combat airplane, the alternative "avión de combate" can be used too, however it's a more casual term.

Creo que "F-Zero" sería un buen nombre, de alguna forma el "caza Zero" no me acaba de gustar y además creo recordar que en algunas partes omiten lo de fighter y le llaman solo zero

hmmm....

well, I can see your point.

But is the latin-american version of Spanish considered an official dialect?


That is because if it is not considered a dialect, such as the difference between Mandarin & Cantonese, but are both considered "Chinese".
where the difference makes them both officially considered as distinct dialect of the same language.

If it is not officially considered a dialect, then it will be difficult to justify doing so.
it'll be like labelling a page "American English" and "British English" which doesn't justify the distinction.

this reminds me when an American said: "why do we have ENGLISH language lessons?! Not like we are EVER going to ENGLAND!"

The titles of the pages are mere there to tell people the language type it is in, it was not meant to be versions of specific countries. That is merely a by product of language evolution.

I'm sorry if you choose to interpret like that.

If you want, i can change it to say simply "Spanish version" in English, as to leave no doubt i simply meant this is the type of language and not a deliberate reference to any country.
