I'd like 嫁入道中 translated to English with hiragana. Also could someone tell me if namen jane (sorry if word divisions or spelling are wrong) really is Japanese for "Screw you!"?--50 Xylophone Players 18:39, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

嫁入道中 (よめいりどうちゅう, noun) nuptial procession. I think namenjane (i.e., namerun janai-zo temae) is from 嘗める, 舐める (なめる) and means something like "don’t underestimate me". —Stephen 19:47, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Another one not in Unihan:入営...--50 Xylophone Players 15:41, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

入営 (にゅうえい, noun) entering the barracks; enlistment. —Stephen 13:27, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks :) Oh and I was wondering if you could tell me how to change my signature (I'm getting tired of doing it manually) --50 Xylophone Players 13:50, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

A small problem with a kanji combination...入掛. In the Unihan Database it say it means "called off" but what part of speech should I say it is?--50 Xylophone Players 15:24, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Go to "My Preferences" and one of the boxes you will see there is for "Signature". After that has been set, all you need do is type ~~~~.

入掛 (いれかけ, noun) suspension (said of a performance, match, etc.). —Stephen 15:27, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

I have a bunch of requests again (from a page I previously worked on and had forgotten about.*thinks out loud* seems like putting them on the requested articles page did nothing) 華人, 官人, 漢人, 客人, 後人, 工人, 私人, 旅人, 党人, 魔人, 無人. Oh and I nearly forgot don't be surprised if some of them come up as blue links when you post the translations; that will be because some of them have articles for certain dialects of Chinese but have no sections for Japanese. --50 Xylophone Players 17:19, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

華人 (かじん, noun) I think this is a term for "Chinese people".

旅人 (たびびと or たびにん or りょじん, noun) traveler

党人 (とうじん, noun) a party man, member of the party, partisan

魔人 (まじん, noun) I think this is a magician, sorcerer, conjurer

無人 (ぶじん or ぶにん, noun) shorthanded, lack of help; unmanned; uninhabited

無人 (むじん or むにん, な-adjective) shorthanded; unmanned; uninhabited. —Stephen 18:10, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks so much! :D --50 Xylophone Players 18:15, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Um... since 無人 is a -na adjective would it be okay to tag it as an adnominal and create a separate article for 無人な?--50 Xylophone Players 16:12, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes. In fact, there is a special category for them: Category:Japanese な-na adjectives. There would need to be a link to 無人な from 無人. —Stephen 16:56, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Okay, thanks.--50 Xylophone Players 17:27, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Sirs,

    I need to know what "Estep" is for. I saw it in a poster. I can't find its meaning. What does it mean? What does it mean to say? Looking for your explanation. Thanks in advance.

god give me strengh — This comment was unsigned.

Well, in English, that would be "God, give me strength." Did you have a particular language you wanted it translated into?--EncycloPetey 19:55, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

a la grdttecenie de lourdes j ai prie pour vous what dose it mean

The misspellings make it almost impossible to read. My guess is that you mean "à la grotte bénie de Lourdes, j’ai prie pour vous", which means "at the blessed grotto of Lourdes I prayed for you." —Stephen 22:50, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

I would like to kiss you

is it ture that "important place" and "kiss" are described by the same charachters in Arabic

You’re probably thinking of قبل, which, depending on pronunciation and context, can mean quite a number of things, including kiss(es), front part, power, ability; or of قبلة, which can mean kiss, qibla, or focus (of attention). —Stephen 17:58, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Does anyone know how to tranlate the Egyptian proverb, "To speak the name of the dead is to make them live again" into Hieratic?

Perhaps they do. However, Unicode has not yet made available the Hieratic, Demotic, and Hieroglyphic scripts, YET. Yet, as in I wish they would hurry the heck up already! :(

Anyways, without a way of properly displaying Hieratic on the Internet, I'm not sure how it could be done. Unless, you wanted an image file of a graphical rendering of the aboverequested text.—Strabismus 03:14, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

I asked an arabian friend to translate this. He said it's not pure arabic. Probably it's a dialect from Maroc. Here goes:

i only want you and on your love i die

this is the lady of my life and my love

i wished to live with you only you!
