Tom's Japanese

Greetings All

Much of Tom's speech is pseudo-Japanese, however some is real, particularly the numbers in Episode 1 and "komoji" in Episode 2.

CommonSense pointed out that some of Tom's words in Episode 8 appear to be from video games, the only one I am sure about is "Kamehameha!" from Dragon Ball. Are you still around to enlighten us, CommonSense?

I believe that in Episode 5, "Sendai seonata" and "Yi no tur kai" may mean something, and in Episode 7 "doh no va son ai" sounds genuine.

Has anyone ever come up with a sensible translation of these latter two phrases, and have we missed anything else (ignoring "Yojimbo" in Episode 5)?

Happy Hunting

Rick

I also found his Japanese quite realistic and convincing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts here at http://www.unfiction.com
