Help from manderin speakers!!!
Friday, April 29, 2005

Okay, I was looking for chinese translations and I came upon this site (URL below!) and, being the franglais speaker I am, I have no idea if what I did (which I want to go onto a teeshirt) is correct at all! It's supposed to be "let's be bad guys" (though, the the literal translation is let's be bad mannered!) So, have I done it, or have I just completely botched up the whole language as it is?! Lermeknow!!! (PS: It's also got the little gifs of the translation from the webby... there are brackets in there and I had no idea what to do so I just put brackets in too!) http://www.tigernt.com/dict.shtml

To start you off: delete the first line. I'm not joking when I say that it reads "NOUN beryllium [metallic element]."

I don't know the best way to say "Let's be bad guys" in Mandarin; that's very idiomatic. Some grammatical addition to perhaps 坏人 "huairen" (evildoer, scoundrel), 恶棍 "egun" (scoundrel, rougue, bully), or 歹徒 "daitu" (evildoer, ruffian, scoundrel). (The "bad guy"/villain in a story is 反面人物 "fanmianrenwu," but that's a bit much for Jayne.)

With an action verb, you can make a suggestion with 吧 "ba": 走吧 "zou ba" (Let's go), 吃饭吧 "chifan ba" (Let's eat), but I don't know about Jayne's meaning of (more or less) "let's manifest the bad-guy/villian/outlaw side of our personalities."

B&W Poster Series
Okay guys... Boredom struck! I am making these posters (on cafepress) that are all grey, and a little altered (digitally). They look pretty neat to me. (if you care that's YOUR problem!) There are 6 posters so far, each with one of the characters and something that's been said about them. (not something they said).... it's turning out great, but my computer is having issues getting into can't take the sky. And that's the only place I know that has screencaps... so I decided to show all the posters I've made to you now... aren't I smart! You can buy them here http://www.cafepress.com/stillflyinghigh
