Translations methodology[edit]
hey...though I don't translate much, I would like to help you in such case. Most of the translators here have a basic knowledge of the language. But of course there are other ways for it. First: You can use 'Abbyyfine reader' (or any other ocr software) to get the txts from the .jpg . Copy them as per your convinience and start using a translator ( I use google toolkit and babylon...some also use atlas).
But these translations won't be your exact book. You will have to jumble them a bit as per your undersanding of the story. You will get a massive headache at the starting n u will feel like abandoning it. In case u cross this hurdle, put it on BT and leave the rest to the editors.
oh...some also uses 'Rikaichan' which is very much popular for translations.
P.S type this whenever u write somewhere on BT (user talks/discussion) '~' 4 times . This will automatically write ur name. :) --Chancs 13:37, 4 March 2012 (CST)
yes. and the editors will curse you for all eternity, so beware. personally, i'd not translate if i didn't know the language. having read some machine translations, i can't say they were an enjoyable read... you have to ask yourself - "is it really worth it?", before beginning to translate. "a translation is better than no translation" does not always apply. this is just a humble opinion of a fellow translator... --Idiffer 13:54, 4 March 2012 (CST)
oh well...u would have 2 start some time :) --Chancs 13:59, 4 March 2012 (CST)
yeah. in my own perverse way, i'm just trying to encourage the guy to learn the language... carry on... as you were... don't mind me any longer) oh, and chancs, i saw that you are an editor for High school DxD. so you know what i mean then)) tough shit))--Idiffer 15:39, 4 March 2012 (CST)
Hi. Sorry about late reply. I have received other people wanting to translate using translation machine but I have turned them down. It makes too much errors. Other translator know Japanese is well and translating it directly. --Code-Zero 03:58, 8 March 2012 (CST)
