Translators and Linguists

My friend is being stationed in Japan and I am looking for a good pocket dictionary and also for an electronic translator that will be helpful. Any suggestions?

There is no particularly good translation software for Japanese, and for most east asian languages for that matter. For an electronic dictionary, there are a number of handheld types that I unfortunately cannot comment on. For the computer though, I find JWPce to be indispensable. You can attach multiple dictionary files and quickly search through them. Additionally, it makes it easy to find unknown kanji via various lookup techniques, and is a text editor to boot.

from another language to English? How much do they make annually?? Is it $100,000 to $200,000 by the way I live in California in case you want to give me any college specifics

I know that a sign language interrupter in a court can make $50.00 an hour depending on experience. That is not bad.

Even a sign language interrupter in a public school department you can make $20.00 an hour.

I live in the east coast area. I would imagine living on the west coast they make good money there also.

I know it sounds a tad silly. But is there an ancient language translator, into english. or into any other modern language. I am trying to translate a bunch of mixed text but it is all muddled up and is ancient, the latin translators do not recognise most of the words.

Right now, only human beings can accurately translate Latin. This is actually true for all languages, but more and more people put their faith in Google Translate every day.

You can ask for a translation at latindiscussion.com/forum if you want. But, be sure to read and follow the rules for composing a request – the members there are often treated like machines, and they don’t take kindly to that.

I’ve been reading this manga, and when I’m done with the chapter one of the pages has a page of a manga that subs in words from a page from a manga series saying that they need translators. The guy has black hair, and the girl has short hair,and the last picture on the page is him walking past her. What is this page from? What manga?

Why don’t you look on the book?

I’m currently studying Spanish, and to make sure that my sentence structure is well, I like to enter my sentence in a translator. In my earlier days of Spanish learning I used to use Google Translate, but I learned that it isn’t accurate. Do you know of any online language translator that translates English to Spanish (vice versa) accurately. I’m currently using Yahoo Babel Fish which seems to be accurate, but I’m not sure.

I am your online accurate & perfect translator

I was told it means "Remember to maintain a calm mind while doing difficult tasks" and was wondering if that is true because I put it into a translater and it said something different but I’m assuming that is because it translates it literally? And also after the translation it says "(Virgil) in perenshesis and I was wondering what that means too.

Thank you in advance.

Yeah, that’s pretty close – "remember to keep a level head in difficult affairs". The "(Virgil)" after it means it’s a quotation from the poet Virgil , which is kind of strange because it’s really from Horace. The language is rather poetic – "rebus in arduis" is the kind of thing you’d only say in poetry.

I’m trying to find a translator because I want to know how to say something in Japanese, but all of the translators I’ve tried puts it in japanese characters and I want to find one that would give English characters so I’ll know how to pronounce it. Would someone please help me?

I don’t know of any translators that handle the grammar very well, but if you can decode the word order and grammar, then www.rikai.com will give you the meanings of the kanji characters so you can figure out what is written.
