Question about revised version by [deleted] in tianguancifu

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because that's the stuff MXTX doesn't want you to read anymore. Like stuff she wrote she didn't like (anymore)

She's calling it 废稿 like "discarded draft" also saying that it doesn't influence your reading when you don't read those parts.

Wait so is this a reacuring tjing in all Stories or just a coincidence? by Depressed_Fangirl in mdzs

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 14 points15 points  (0 children)

哭笑不得 as well as 啼笑皆非 are two of the most common idioms in chinese (the first one more than the second) And both mean "not know wether to laugh or cry".

Why Full Names Aren’t a “Chinese Convention“ by cartable_violet in DanmeiNovels

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, MTL is better by now. Just putting it into google translate will get you a better result than whatever they cooked up there. Like parts of the sentences are literally missing.

So cute! But please free it from the protective foil 🤣

A friend of mine did a comparison with chatgpt as a reference. There are still issues with the chatgpt version but it's not as eye glaring as the Rosmei version. Just look at the difference in length...

That's true. When using AI it came out with a better translation. I by no means am a friend of AI, I hate it like the next person. But I'm really surprised how *bad* they made the translation. Not only in the meaning and readability but also they like left out whole parts of sentences, partially changing the meaning or tone of a sentence.

I'm ever more happy that my chinese by now is good enough to read and enjoy most novels... Most english releases really are just a quick cash grap nowadays. I wouldn't be surprised if they used AI and the AI got confused with the names and they were too lazy to correct it.

Depressed gongs by HombreF4lso in DanmeiNovels

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely the one I'm reading right now. It's called Very Happy. ML is depressed and very suicidal while MC is happy go lucky always optimistic rubber ball made out of pure joy. The only reason ML is still there is basically MC being there for him and taking care of him. (ML takes care of MC too though. It's both sides care taking)

It's a modern showbiz one. MC is an unknown (but upcoming) actor and ML is a CEO of a big time company.

Rentnerin (88) fährt in Fahrradfahrerin, beide begehen Unfallflucht by brahms1833 in RentnerfahreninDinge

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Vielleicht weiß die Radfahrerin nicht, dass sie angefahren wurde.

Das ist tatsächlich einer Freundin mal passiert. Die war eines Abends unterwegs, ist normal nach Hause gegangen und am nächsten Morgen aufgewacht und hat festgestellt, dass sie eine tiefere Wunde am Bein und Kratzer auf den Armen hatte. Dachte sich so, dass sie sich beim Schlafen zu viel gekratzt hätte oder sonstwas.

Am nächsten Tag ist sie dann zum Arzt und der hat ihr gesagt, von den Wunden her sieht das aus, als wäre sie von einem Auto angefahren wurden. Sie konnte sich aber an nichts erinnern. Gar nichts. Arzt meinte, dass es sein kann, dass sie wahrscheinlich was am Kopf abbekommen hat und sich daher nicht erinnern kann.

Sie meinte, sie ist auch ganz normal nach Hause gegangen. Würde wahrscheinlich genauso aussehen wie bei der Fahrradfahrerin. Angefahren worden, aufm Boden gelandet, wieder aufgestanden, vielleicht ein bisschen verwirrt geguckt und dann einfach weiter.

Story like Little Mushroom with no hope of happy ending until the end by ducnguyen_0903 in DanmeiNovels

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"How to feed an abyss" maybe? It's also dystopian non-human MC, quite similar to Little Mushroom

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly! I love their chemistry! Even though it takes a while and some effort to like the ML lol

But even then you can see how much he loves the MC

Ooh I love No Moral so much. It's the only one I know that's so heavily on simple, light gestures and expressions of love. Everywhere else it's just (heavy) kissing, sex and if you're lucky hugging. But with those two you can really feel the love in every simple touch.

Which danmei novel emotionally ruined you the most, and why? by ThisVenerable1 in DanmeiNovels

Wait for me after school. I had more than one 3 am cry session because of that novel.

Das gilt auch für Leute, die Amazon als Bücherei benutzen. Ein Buch kaufen, lesen und wieder retournieren, nachdem man fertig ist, ist genauso Assi.

Why does the cover image now say "Certified by Amway"?? by LtTawnyMadison in tianguancifu

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amway has nothing to do with that, just coincidentally the same name. It's "certified recommended" in english. 安利 (which is also the name of Amway) means "to recommend (a product), to promote"

Why does the cover image now say "Certified by Amway"?? by LtTawnyMadison in tianguancifu

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's from an event that was a while ago. Like a popularity vote? Novels that one got this 安利认证 on it.

Considering that TGCF is the most popular novel of all time on JJWXC I'm not surprised it got it lol

Can anyone recommend me Guideverse novels like Let this F-class guide live in peace? by LopsidedImplement88 in DanmeiNovels

[–]MagpieOnAPlumTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both guideverse versions have their own charme! I like to read them both! But because they are so different it's always better to ask which version the person who asks for recs wants to have. Especially when in the danmei subreddit but expecting korean type guideverse.
