        The JP text on the first Yggdra one reads "These memories of you". ~~~ |

Mari: I'm fairly sure I'll be able to get to LJ today. Sorry I couldn't get there to fix it beforehand. I'll just repost the icons with my latest YU batch, and I'll make sure I check this time. XD
Those who were polite: Thank you for your feedback. Whiners: ONORETACHI WA BAKA. Yes, I used a brush, and the brushmaker has a general understanding of Japanese, but to my knowledge she tries to use aesthetic translations rather than literal ones. So her mistake was pretty simple. "Ano hito no omoida" would usually be translated as "That person's memories" or "His memories", though I've seen "ano hito" translated as "you" in a few songs and anime. The article "no" is a possessive, hence "That person's"; but you can also use the reversal rule to make the translation mean "memories" "of" "that person", or in this brushmaker's case "memories" "of" "you". "These memories of you" was her intended translation, so that's what I usually put out of courtesy. ~~~ |
