hey, /jp/.

Assuming I wanted to read Umineko no Naku Koro Ni Chiru - Episode 6: Dawn of the Golden Witch, but don't understand a lick of japanese, what would my options be?

If I recall correctly, there exists an on-the-fly translator that'd give me a passable translation of babelfish/Google Translate quality, but what was it called again?

[CurryButt No.]

I dont think that'd be such a good idea for something like Umineko.

Read it in original Japanese and just make up what's happening based on the expressions and sound effects.

AGTH and ATLAS, but it would be so bad you'd be better waiting.

[Topadafag !c32VzcxdEg No.]

Be patient and wait.

Apart from some awkward expressions like 'older sister is a vagina', it works normal.

understand: this is what a machine translation looks like.

There are better examples, and you still can understand what it means.

That translation is to be expected-

The question isn't how many sentences are understandable, the question is how many are not. It only takes 5% gibberish to make the clear 95% meaningless.

[None !NACK.rrrr. No.]

That and "my sister is a clitoris"

The elder sister is a George?

...Wow, it all makes so much sense now.

>>5086965
Please elaborate on that last part, because I'm completely lost as to what the original meaning might've been, or could've been.

If you don't even bother to try to understand it, add words and all, then it's normal.
I played with it and the most complicated things can be understood well.

>passable translation
Nope.

>The elder sister is a George?

Only recently though.

Machine translation is a viable option for something like a porn game where you don't give a shit about the plot in the first place and half of it is OOOH AHHH YOU'RE TEARING ME APART anyway. For something like Umineko, either learn Japanese or wait for a real translation.

[Anonymous No.]

Just wait honestly. From what Chronotrig's been saying, translations are a lot higher than 6%, but it sure as hell won't come out before the next comiket considering their pace

[Topadafag !c32VzcxdEg No.]

If it is not out before the 7th episodes, you can always wait more. Its not like the game is going to run away from you.

Except the main reason everyone likes it is discussions, and there's good chance for an answer in ep7.

[CurryButt No.]

>>5087110
I don't like, read, or participate in the discussions for the most part. I don't mind them either but it's not exactly a draw point for me.

[Topadafag !c32VzcxdEg No.]

>>5087110
You can discuss when the translation is out, with the people that don't speak moonspeak.

[Anonymous No.]

>>5087148
The next day the final answer episode will come out you will be spoiled about it in /jp/.
