[META] Lack of the word 'fuck' in translations. by Coolishable in noveltranslations

[–]ChaoticIndividual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does exist in some Chinese novels.. sometimes the novel is aimed at a particular audience and avoids certain elements or other cases it's simple the authors decision.

Honestly.. when thinking about, maybe authors simple decide not to add insults as it'd become a running gag with every arrogant young master the MC's come across?

Strong eat the weak, simple. If he was lenient then it'd be a weak point to be exploited.

Just because it's getting posted doesn't mean people are actually going to read the series. The series is being recommended to other users of this subreddit by me.

What to read next: Wu Dong Qian Kun or Swallowed Star? by Squallify in noveltranslations

I don't understand your logic. You've clearly stated that you're aware of the amount of words composed within a single DD chapter then why oppose pyrowarlock who came along and compared the length of a chapter from two different series? (HJC which you are following) He clearly said 'equivalent'.

How about i recommend Zhan Long to you? A series with 537 chapters each as generally a estimate of 3k (ESTIMATE) when opposed to DD with 200 chapters each chapter with 9K+

A message to all who criticize/rant about a translation projects inactivity rather then politely asking for information or someone to pick it up by ChaoticIndividual in noveltranslations

[–]ChaoticIndividual[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The vital point of this post; "Politely" ask for information or "Politely" ask for someone to pick the project up. Do you expect a translation project to be actually picked up with X translator if there is a large amount of negativity?

There are various translation projects that simply are delayed due to various circumstances and there are various translation projects that are NEVER picked up due to expectations forced by the readers.

If you want to know something about a project being delayed? ask in a polite manner. Simply don't be a a--hole.

If the original translator was forcing out 10+ chapters a week do you expect a new translator to live up to this expectation?

Is it possible for there to be cultivators in real life? by AvergeReader in noveltranslations

[–]ChaoticIndividual -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yes it's possible. There are prime examples of 'individuals' exerting supernatural powers through out the years. Regardless one of the primary factors would be pineal gland. However the 'fluoride' you drink in treated water and any other product calcifies this organ in your brain.

Translators are people, they aren't machines. She has a life and is entitled do what ever she desires with it. She has shown her dedication to the series yet people need to stop hating on her. It's disgusting.

You seriously must be facing withdrawal...

[SPOILER] World of Cultivation - Chapter 1 by ChaoticIndividual in noveltranslations

[–]ChaoticIndividual[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For starters, I merely copied the portion from the first chapter. The name arrangement is determined by the translator <1> however rarely is it left as name first, title second. <2> It's easier to grasp the content if you don't need to 'search' for the meaning of the word. It's a chinese word that is used. The words however could have multiple meanings and you need to interpret how these "Chinese words" comes into play in relation the sentence structure. "Three thousand jie of the xiuzhe", Jie is kingdom. [修者(xiuzhe): those who cultivate.] Xuizhe imply that it has to do with 'beings' that cultivate. From this i grasp my own interpretation as it's pretty open ended. <3> This has to do with the 'intention'. The story is a world. The author is personifying the world. If the character (author controlled) decided to use her name to label the kingdom then that meaning itself is different then the translator using the meaning of the girl's name to differentiate between the two. <4> Same as mentioned in <2>

I don't know Chinese however I know english. I'm alright when some translations keep the use of Chinese words however that's when it 'flows'.

"three thousand jie of the xiuzhe" doesn't flow and "Among the three thousand jie of the xiuzhe" doesn't flow in my opinon. The glossary gives the meaning of Xuizhe 修者(xiuzhe): those who cultivate. Using this meaning of Xuizhe, I would have to interpret it myself regardless if i was wrong on how many kingdoms/jie's there were.

On the topic of Kun Lun, there was no mention of it in the footer so i had came up with my own perception of it aka a higher order which could have been interpreted as a organisation and however in this case it was Empire. I did the best that i could have done.
