how do you translate "Will you marry me?" in japanese language?
- 私と結婚して下さい。 Watashi to kekkon shite kudasai. --Tohru 17:32, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
I would like to translate:
"And no matter what happens, I will continue to love you"
Or at least something similar. Thank you.

what is the translation or meaning of "house of shaws". plese i m too much confuse for this.
- I think Shaws refers to a Scottish clan, Clan Shaw. The House of Shaws is like the House of Stuart or the House of Tartan. —Stephen 11:15, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Japanese to English please

This is a tanka by a lady poet, Onna no Komachi- Donald Keene's translation is as follows-
This night of no moon
There is no way to meet him.
I rise in longing
My breast pounds, a leaping flame
My heart is consumed by fire.
The poet is Ono No Komachi, the best translation I've seen is this:
No way to see him
on this moonless night---
I lie awake longing, burning,
breasts racing fire,
heart in flames.

What does let-off mean?
Is there a list of phrasal verbs?
Thanks
- It depends on how it’s used. "He let off steam" means that he did something energetic to release inner tension and stress. "After his arrest, he was let off with a reprimand" means that he was released with little or no punishment. I cannot think of a case that would be hyphenated, however. Some people do hyphenate phrasal verbs as a matter of course, but this practice is considered illiterate. —Stephen 13:31, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- It might be hyphenated as a noun. Eg "What a let-off!", indicating that someone escaped without due punishment. Widsith 11:07, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
plain cheese in French, the exact name, not "fromage simple" nor "fromage plain"
Thanks
- What does "plain cheese" even mean? I don’t think I’ve heard that expression before. —Stephen 12:21, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
"Fromage" with no fuss. The expression "plain cheese" means easy going
- If "plain cheese" means "easy going", what does "fromage with no fuss" mean? The best that I am able to understand you, you seem to be looking for nonchalant or pépère. They mean easy going, but having nothing to do with cheese. If you’re talking about some kind of cheese, then I have no idea what you are saying. —Stephen 17:32, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
I wish to get the following latin phrase: Audi, Vide, Tace,
Si Vis Vivere in Pace. Which in English means: “Hear See be Silent if you would live in Peace" But it is a bit on the long side, I need help shortening it but retaining the meaning for a tattoo. Please help. Perhaps just-Hear, See, Be silent to live in peace.
- You would have to cut something substantial. Literally, the Latin reads "hear, see, silent, if want live in peace". The minor English words such as "be", "you", "would" and "to" are expressed only implicitly in the Latin grammar. You could drop the last two words, "in pace" (in peace) without changing the meaning very much. Otherwise, you have to drop "hear", "see", "be silent", or "if you would live in peace" (one of the four). —Stephen 19:18, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
