Translation Help Thread

[Seika]

Mmm. Found an Italian Furioso, but the only extra thing that turns up in connection with Logistilla is an unlikely butchering of castitate/castita, which is one of her attributes in VI.XLIV

[peanuts]

I derped again. It's キャッサー・デ・ロジェスティラ (the additional nakaten before the de)

[You]

Oh that makes it so much easier.
Casa Di Logistilla right?

[Riku Noctis]

A little help, please...

Is this...
信じられない。
ガッカリしたから、もう一回寝る。

..."I was dissapointed?" or I'm awfully wrong?



(yeah, it's from melty)

Disappointed.
Ciel woke up Arc, Arc is disappointed that it was Ciel and not Shiki so she's like whatever going back to sleep.

概念受胎
From Gardens of Avalon. I don't think Conceptual Conception sounds good. Anything else?

[Arashi_Leonhart]

"Main idea"? "Conceptual notion"? "The general few hour period when the sperm fertilizes the egg"?

[Mcjon01]

I think Conceptual Conception sounds good. It's got nice alliteration. I also like conceptuation but only because it's silly.

[Tobias]

You could call it a conceptual quickening if you didn't mind being a little poetic about it, assuming I understand the concept

[mewarmo990]

INSEMINATION OF IDEAS, work the sex angle

[DrJones]

¿Conception of the idea/an ideal? ¿Birth of a concept?

[Riku Noctis]

A little help checking this translation, please...

地に落ちたまま天を睨む王の願いを聞き届けたものは、惑星ではなく人間だ。 惑星は文明の終わりを受け入れるが、 惑星の霊長となった人間は文明の終わりを拒み続ける。 それは人々の集合無意識が作り上げた “人の世界” の防衛装置。 それは人類史を継続させる為に多くの記録、多くの力を取りこみながら、人理の終わりまで在り続 ける魂の貯蔵 庫。 ようは限度額のない高利貸しだ。

It is the humans, not the planet, that grants the wishes of the king that scowls at the sky, having fallen to the ground. The Planet accepts the end of civilization, but humans, being the planet's dominant species, continue to reject it. This is a "defensive mechanism" made by the people's collective unconsciousness. It is a storehouse for the souls that continue to exist until the end of the human experience while containing many records and power in order to allow human history to continue. In short, it's explotation* has no limit.

* I think 高利貸し could be interpreted like that, but I may be wrong there (or anywhere else... :P). Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

人理 is a term they use and will use in grand order.

[Reiu]

Millennia have passed since humanity has established its world order.
Upon the end of the Age of Gods, mankind has become the most prosperous species on this planet.
We are the ones who shall one day determine the planet's fate, and carve its epitaph.
For that purpose we have cultivated knowledge, developed resources, and passed on countless lives.
The law to preserve, strengthen, and uphold humanity's rule ---
Magi call this the "Anthropic Principle."

Went with "anthropic principle" (人間原理 in Japanese) for the made-up word, because repurposing a philosophical term sounds like the kind of thing the mushroom would approve of.

[Riku Noctis]

人理 is a term they use and will use in grand order.

Perhaps are you refering to this?

I just did a quick search, but as I haven't been up to date with Fate news, even less Grand Order, I didn't noticed until you pointed it out now, and it seems a bit interesting. I think I should change that bit and use, what? Humanity? Humanity Value? Mmm... Yeah, interesting indeed.


Any advice as to how should I translate 高利貸し? I can't think of anything besides "explotation", and I'm not even sure the full paragraph is correct. Thanks for the help and the heads up about 人理.

Also

世界を見通す眼

please.
How would you translate 見通す because in this case it refers to both predicting as well as the whole "i see everything," definition.
Is there a good word that encompasses both of them?

Usury, easy. Or go for other synonyms if you don't like the sound of it.

If you want to stick to a single word...maybe "divine"? Or "survey," since that has the connotations of looking from a higher viewpoint.

I can only think of it as "foresee" or "predict", but I wouldn't say "eyes that foresee/predict the world."

Can't think of anything besides "foresee" to be honest. Sorry I can't be of any help.

I see... Basically, I just wanted the meaning to be conveyed, but I wasn't sure if usury was the right one.
Thanks.

I was thinking gaze upon but that sounded too pompous. Divine is perfect. Thanks.
