Im translating the / my attempt at a last song and although I like how it is turning out, the chorus is undoubtedly my favorite part

(Chorus)

So please, with fervor, I implore,

Stay away from me, find your own shore,

My company won't bring glamour galore,

It's best you go solo, it's better, I'm sure.

#Sabana Bana Songs #my first song #emma writes #savannah writes #in the process of translating

y’know what? fuck you. *UNGRAYSCALES YOUR ISATS*

no wait come back there’s greyscale versions under the cut :(

#marshdoodles #isat #in stars and time #isat spoilers #odile more like. oteal. gottem #anyways color headcanons!!! these’ve been brewing in my head for a little while #especially euphrasie. i genuinely didn’t process everything being in greyscale until after she was introduced #my color headcanon for her was so engrained within me that i didn’t realize she wasn’t colored #everyone else came pretty easily. except for odile #i don’t really see her wearing like. saturated colors?#i just defaulted to teal because i like tinting black hair teal #her purple-ish shirt was supposed to be like. a subtle hint to her being half vaugardian #since all of my vauguardians have warmer color palettes #but idrk how well that translates. oh well!#im like 90% sure i chose purple for mira because of plums. even though mirabelle plums aren’t purple #but by the time i realized that her colors were set in stone in my brain #i’d go on about design details for the others but these tags are already outrageously long as is #so uh. oops. can you tell i like talking about character design

#lines that live rent free in my head tbh. although i'm not sure i communicated it as well/clearly as i'd like #he should def look a little more scary but i'm not the best at dogs aksdjfhjdsk #thoughts #my art #les mis #jean valjean #javert #<- i mean. sort of. lol #also Two footnotes here:#firstly i'm pretty sure in the original french it just stops short at 'to lick' & what is being licked is just implied by the context #so the 'intruder's hand' is all hapgood afaik. that said it's fun so i'm keeping it. fan art of hapgood translation specifically now ig #second footnote is just that i don't think he'd actually have any scars around his wrist bc the manacles are only for actually being #arrested afaik. when he was actually in toulon he'd only have the chain on his leg. but it's good symbolism so.#also the chain thing i had a whole thought process abt symbolism we being willingly/unwillingly chained willingly/unwillingly set loose #parallels & contrasts etc etc but i don't think it really ended up being very clear. but oh well. we're clearing out wips here #also was contemplating something about that thing about medieval art of saints having an open palm to represent #openness/sincerity/righteousness to the person they're facing but again not very evident

One random thing that I love is the tireless effort of birders/ornithologists to try and phonetically render all the bird calls into text in an accurate manner. I am so bad at processing sounds that I could literally never do this. Like how many times would you have to listen to that bird call before deciding which letters to place in what order??

I have been challenging myself to listen to a bird call, try and write down my translation, then look up the accepted birder one to compare… let’s just say I am not fluent in bird

#birding #phonetics #birds #animals #biology #auditory processing is a real problem for me these phonetic translations do not help me at all lol #super cool stuff though #if you try this please share it I bet some of y’all are good #bird game

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night thinking about how wwx grew up in an adopted family that always spoke in terms of what he owed them (except Jiang Yanli), and Lan Wangji, upon wwx's resurrection insisted "there is no need for sorry or thanks between us" and kept to his word every single time. Or are you normal.

#mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #wangxian #this only occurred to me for the first time last night and i started bawling my eyes out all over again #like thanks i need to lie down and process. for thirteen years. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA #anyways im so fine im so normal about it all hahahaha...#im only on volume 2 of mdzs i just know im fked #im reading so slowly but its so good #im not sure if its just me but i think part of my struggle is the translation; svsss' was the only one that felt well done #tgcf and mdzs are so stiff sounding and something tells me parts of the tone are off or convey an incomplete nuance

Is this a gorgeous and beautifully drawn webcomic or gorgeous and beautifully drawn art only?

Art only I'm afraid ´v`'

I love comics as an artform and I wish I could create one about these dogs, but making comics is hard work. It's extremely time consuming and artistically challenging and I just don't think I have what it takes to branch out into that right now.

#answered #hpinthevain #if only I could clone myself #I've done short comics but those were like 10 pages at most and even then they felt like a massive undertaking #I have friends and mutuals with ongoing webcomics and I have no idea how they do it without getting burnt out or artblocked #maybe there's something in the way I draw that makes it translate poorly to comic making #like could my process be really inefficient or something

Poster of My Stand-In EP.11 - Love is Merely Madness

Producer Yuan tweeted that the English tagline took inspiration from Shakespeare's As You Like It

Love is merely a madness; and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do; and the reason why they are not so punish'd and cured is that the lunacy is so ordinary that the whippers are in love too.

The Chinese tagline is "有美人兮，见之不忘" which can be translated as "There is a beautiful person, I will never forget them after seeing them"

Producer Yuan explained that this Chinese tagline comes from an ancient Chinese poem and she feels that it describes the visible yearning and longing Ming has for Joe in EP.11

#yyds entertainment #my stand in #my stand in the series #i've seen a few interviews with yuan where she spoke chinese too. i love the fact that she read the novel in chinese #which probably meant she got all the nuanced that english translation of pbd lost in the process #i need danmei adaptation rights to fall into hands like herrrrrrr

So you guys have just been coping with this since 2019. Okay.

#yugioh vrains #ygo vrains #vrains #'now i understand that definition. i loved you.' OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#i need to go back and listen again but i'm like 95% sure that the word that gets translated as 'people' can also mean 'someone'#ai means to love someone. i loved you.#vrains spoilers I GUESS? SORRY I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE FOLLOWING ME WHO HAVENT WATCHED VRAINS #BUT IT'S ALSO BEEN OUT FOR 4 YEARS. IDK.#i've been steadily processing this for the past three days straight. i admittedly wasn't crazy about vrains' last season but good lord #i didn't expect the finale to grab me and shake me violently about like that. you guys really live like this?

evangeline makes an offer... 👀 [next >>]

#my ocs #jackie #evangeline #wlw #comic #long post #i want to try and continue this.... i want to draw..... the Bite...#i want them to get all..... messy 🥴#i love vampires.........#oh some vampire lore: they can eat but the amount they eat directly translates to how much blood they gotta drink to compensate #basically makes their body process 'food' it cant get nutrients from so more energy (consumed blood) is diverted to digestion #and that triggers a thirst response that gets harder to ignore the more you eat #jackie loves snacking and eating comfort food bc it makes her feel normal tho... she cant give it up completely #good thing she has a witch gf that effortlessly regenerates 😏

I have a question I need asked:

And please, if you want to, type in the tags or replies if reading numbers is important to mentally understand what time it is OR if seeing a "picture" of the time is required to mentally understand what time it is (i'm hoping this makes sense)

#i need answers for personal closure #for me? analogue #and there is NO difference between analogue with numbers or analogue without numbers #because the analogue clock provides an ''image''. 02:15 is an image. it is already instantly appearing in my head because i am seeing it #whereas 02:15 on a digital watch needs mental effort on my part to translate the numbers into the image of an analogue clock #does this make sense??#i am *very* dependent on visual imagery to process information #but i've asked others and they describe the complete opposite

more cats!

and uhhhhh this thing

#one piece #sanji #roronoa zoro #nami #nico robin #my art #ok hear me out.#my thought process was ''oh i bet sanji would shave his hands to keep the food sanitary!''#but then i remembered his hairy legs in canon #and it's hard to translate that if his legs had fur #so um #he's a freak now. sorry

From Roier's 02/22/2024 VOD

TRANSLATION (source: a bit of reading english twt update accounts, bit of my own translating, please correct me on anything)

Cucurucho: What is your biggest accomplishment on the island?

Roier: What did he say?

Missa: He asked how big is your dick?

Roier: No mames. Sleeping 2cm, erected 3cm. (Richarlyson starts hitting him) What's going on? Why's he hitting me?

Missa: He said that he hasn't accomplished anything. He is a loser at this game.

Roier: Hey, what does that mean, dumbass?! What did you say?

--

[bc there was a bit of talk on the dash about cubitos being mischaracterized bc of language barriers/viewers only sticking to POV(s) in their own language, I wanted to bring up a clip of one of my favorite cubitos that I haven't seen on tumblr before which, wtf how, it fucking kills me every time! seriously love it, it's but one example of q!Missa being a Little Shit.]

#qsmp #qsmp clips #missasinfonia #roier #i wanted to post this last night but i passed out pffft #also pls let me know not just of any translation errors but if i should translate the slang like no mames?#bc of how many ways it can be interpreted i wasn't sure and since many non-spanish cc's/fans use the term as well #I just... kept it as is #i wish i could do translations more but i have SUCH bad auditory processing DX
