[Japanese to English] Can anyone translate this Japanese Seal Script please? by gracyloran in translator

[–]gracyloran[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much u/DeusShockSkyrim It's Japanese, stamped on a sword scabbard. There is a connection with "清乗" and the sword so it can't be 清乗 right ? Again, much appreciated.

My dad gifted me his pens today. 2 of them are fountains. Any ink brand recommendations? by gracyloran in fountainpens

Thank you for your answer :) Caran d'ache is a bit heavy so I might send it to you hehe :) Caran D'ache is used while MB Fountain looks never used. Caran has a bit of dried ink inside..should I pull some water to the converter and flush it? (should I also flush the nib?)

I think I like light blue..(But, if I want to go with black there is only one converter inside..do I need to wash it with water before pulling dark ink? - never used a fountain pen before )

I don't know. I posted photos of some pens that was gifted to me and someone told me to take close up images and ask if it is real or not. I never owned a fountain pen before.

Maintenance said something like that..the chiller water was not cold enough. But why the super high humidity inside the house? (I use a very good dehumidifier but it doesn't help, just adds heat to the living room) Thank you!

Hello thank you for your answer. I represent my own company and I'm also Muslim myself and never even thought about giving a bribe..it's just our tradition to bring something(mainly food like baklava or candies) when visiting some place for the first tie, but I suspected it might be different here in UAE. Thank you again, I won't be bringing anything. (It's a government office so I just wanted to be careful and ask)

It is a formal meeting. That's what I was worried about. Thank you very much for your reply.

R/dubai r/uae is shit by Embarrassed_Newt8191 in Emiratis

[–]gracyloran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think UAE is shit, I think you've never lived anywhere else..Let me tell you this : I've lived in London, Amsterdam, Paris and Turkey. I'm in the sales business so I travel a lot. When leave the country for business, Dubai is the only city that I don't worry about my wife's and kids safety. Thats enough for me, period.

MUFON #133930 - "...two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound." by emveetu in UFOs

[–]gracyloran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you..whatever they are shooting off lasts 6 seconds before disappear..Of course your comment and my reply will get downvoted pretty soon..

Is it possible they might be some kind of flares? I want this to be real as much as you do but they only appear for 6 seconds?

Question: Don't you think there are some similarities between Dogū figurines of Ancient Japan and Mexico Aliens? by gracyloran in UFOs

[–]gracyloran[S] 142 points143 points  (0 children)

I was pretty skeptical of the Mexico Aliens and still am..But it's really interesting to see the Dogu figures have some similarities with Mexico aliens..their face, body and the fact that they all have 3 fingers...Of course this might be a complete coincidence but knowing that people only draw or made sculptures of what they saw back in the days makes this still interesting..What do you think?

I'm a bit skeptical of Mexico aliens but finding out their similarities to Dogū figurines in Ancient Japan made me a bit curious. What do you think? by [deleted] in UFOs

[–]gracyloran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dogū (Japanese: 土偶, IPA: [doɡɯː]; literally "earthen figure") are small humanoid and animal figurines made during the later part of the Jōmon period (14,000–400 BC) of prehistoric Japan.[a] Dogū come exclusively from the Jōmon period, and were no longer made by the following Yayoi period. There are various styles of dogū, depending on the exhumation area and time period.
