Please help me to translate

Suraci · Jul 12, 2004, 03:28

Okay I had a really nice introduction originally but J Reference was evil and didn't cooperate. I'm too tired to rewrite the bulk of it, but what I'd like is if somebody could help me translate five sentences that my two semi-fluent friends could not. I'd really appreciate it. So yesh... here they are and thanks in advance.

1. Nibbling on me again will bring about your certain doom
2. I live for bagels and caramel.
3. Make the hiccups stop.
4. Veggie girl, save the world, basket head, trip instead, clunky shoes, violent views.
5. I didn't do it

You didn't say what language you wanted them tranlsated into so i'll presume you wanted them translated into Japanese. Okay, I can translate #3 and #5 for you. Let me see...

3. しゃっくりを止めてください。(Shakuri o tometekudasai) First-person or second-person polite.

or

3. しゃっくりを止めんかいな!!! (Shakuri o tomenkaina!) Second-person Kansai-ben demanding.

5. 私わしてません。　(Watashi wa shitemasen) First-person polite

or

5. おれわそんなこと　してへんで!!!　（Ore wa sonna koto shitehende) First-person Kansai-ben.

P.S. My Japanese might be a little off and if anyone sees any mistakes please correct me.

One thing that's off is that this isn't the proper past tense for "didn't."

I didn't do it is simply "Watashi wa sore wo shimasendeshita."

Best wait for a Japanese speaker to take over the rest....
