Traditional Chinese
« on: May 19, 2009, 04:06:15 pm »
Hi guys
Tonight as I was messing about with a letter to Keren I decided to try and write a letter to her by using 'Traditional Chinese Language'.........

All I can say is good luck to those who try it, lol it is bloody murder.lol:s
I think if you want a laugh, then you should try doing it, I think it will give you a better insight into the Chinese language and how one sign can make the difference

I was taking signs out and the whole sentences were getting so messed up, and then adding words to the translator and getting something totally different.  I just wondered, can any of the brotherhood write this language?

And if you can, you have my sincere plaudits to you


:cool:

That is how it translated  mate.....lol

I knew  it wouldn't be that, that was what I was meaning when I said about what is being written.

Now I am going to re-translate what i had TRANSLATED before I put it in a letter.....

I tried 2 different translators and one said "What do you want me to make?" and the other was what Rob said "You want me to do?"

It would be pretty easy to get confused.

This actually means "What would you like me to do?"

----------------------------

Scottish_Rob, I will be happy to help look through your Chinese Letters, if you like! BTW, Simplified Chinese is what they use in Mainland China

Yeah mate Keren explained that to me thanks.  I think different translators will translate it different, what I said was the one both I and Neil got. And thank you for your offer. :)
