omgitsaray translations

Read chapter 4 here.

I think I was too ambitious with the translation status page. Hourly updates isn’t possible, so now it’s changed to daily. So just come once a day to that page to see if the estimated release date has changed or not. I think right now, only major life events or donations will affect the release date.

After running around all day doing errands and appointments, I finally got time to finish this. Read Chapter 3 here. Enjoy!

Read chapter 2 here if you want to skip my rant.

So a little more info about my translations. Chapter releases are somewhat random because I work 4 days , off 2. It’s best to look at the semi-live status page to gauge releases. The average Chinese characters per chapter right now is about 1850. I try to keep the author’s paragraphs pretty much the same, so if you compare the raw to the English translation, it should match up 99% of the time. Occasionally, I will minus or add stuff to the translation to make the author’s idea more clear to English readers. I try to reign in the grammar mistakes, but that’s pretty much out the window. And finally, translating idioms, slangs, and acupuncture points is a pain in the a$$. *kow tow’s to Ren, Flower, GGP, alyschu and others*

I’m what you call an ABC, fluent in speaking Chinese-Cantonese but can barely read and write. I use google translate and a text to speech program with a dab of parents thrown in. Takes me about 5 hours to translate so I’m gonna commit to 2 chapters a week. Thought this would be fun so here we go. Read Chap 1 here.
