"douryou"

YumeHamasaki · #8 21st June 2007, 11:59 PM

Hmm, perhaps BLUE BIRD would be Aoi tori?
Pride - Hokori or Jiman
Trust - Shin'yo(u) or Shinrai
Who... - Dare...
Replace - Kaeru
Will - Ishi
criminal - Hannin

Those are the easy ones.

But still, those might be wrong (and probably are).

Direct translations? Bingo

FeNgZhEnG · #11 22nd June 2007, 02:45 AM

will feel weird and less approachable to international audiences and listeners

As for "ourselves", I think "jibuntachi" would make more sense...

ANGEL'S SONG = Tenshi no Uta

The thing is that all of her songs can't be translated (i.e. fairyland, alterna, Bold & Delicious, STEP you, Heartplace, Greatful Days), which is what makes the song unique. I think the fact that all her songs are in English make it seem like there are double meanings.

I read ayumi has original japanese titles and translates them into english in the first place.

I believe "TO BE" was iruyo, and that evolution is the japanese word for "era". A mistranslation maybe?

See, but how would she decide to use stuff like "Greatful Days", with the (deliberate) misspelling? Or using words as "fairyland", "alterna", "Heartplace", and "LABYRINTH"? I think any person learning English would rather use "maze" than "labyrinth".

I'm not striking you down, it's just that it doesn't seem too plausible now. I'm sure before her I am... era she might have had helped from a translator, but as for now, I think she's getting it on her own...

The other thing we can consider in these titles is the capitalization. How would she decide the "STEP" in "STEP you", or the "LOVE" in "is this LOVE?", or keep it with "independent", or "No way to say"? All with translations?
