Needed Spanish Translations

[Celtus]

Greetings, Hola !

Anyone up for a challenge? I'm not sure if this has been done, if so just
point it out to me, please !

Those of us who speak English, with little or no Spanish, but want to put
out an effort to converse with Spanish speaking players, need some kind
person to put together (or just start) a list of important Spanish phrases and
words, that English players should know by heart, (or on a handy list till
known well). It would be good to know directional phrases, combat, some
small talk, and anything a knowelgable Spanish/English speaker thinks would
be good to know. Post as it's own Thread in Beginners Sections so it can be
found easily, and add to it as things that come to mind, or as people request.
Also if anyone knows a good Spanish/English reference, more computer
chat oriented not formal Spanish, please point that out.

Some of us really do want to put out the effort to learn enough to be
friendly and help out ! Let's bring the Spanish and English Regnum populations
together and have more fun in the game !

Hi,

is this something like you are talking about: Babel?

If it is, you can use it as a base -or maybe helping to improve it-; there were no new phrases in something like a month or so (or more?); it is just a start, but it didn't get much attention (at least not many sugestions for new words/phrases).

I'm personally interested in this matter so I'll keep an eye on this thread good luck.

Imasu;

It's a start, I've seen key phrases on an English Clan site, forget which
one, will have to search for it, had stuff like what the Spanish speakers
use to indicate players from another realm, tomatoes etc. this type of slang
needs to be incorporated for it to be more useful, but yes it's what I had
in mind ! Let's add to it or incorporate it in something more comprehensive
that might exist.

Also would help to understand what all the, jajaja, lalala, etc is all about !
that sort of thing.

Cool, point me to the site when you find it and I'll talk with them to incorporate the info.

About the jajaj, and lalala; I guess we can work it out.

The jajaj is phonetically the same as for hahaha (laughs) I would need the german and portuguese versions, as for the lalala; is more dificult for me to describe, it would be nice if someone could explain it. As for the time being, I could say it is something like the

"When everything Ill ever do, Ill do for you
And I go: la la la la la"

From Roxette's The look (here around 0:55)

Hope this help

Imasu;

There are two English websites that have started compiling SPA/ENG

1. RegnumHQ - A general all Regnum English Website. They even have a link
to a translator included. Thanks to Drummer. Nice going ! Here's the link

http://www.freewebs.com/regnumhq/index.htm

2. The Clan Inqusition website. Credit to Anpu. Here's a link
http://z7.invisionfree.com/Inquisiti...p?showtopic=44

This looks promising, for those who want to interact with our Spanish speaking friends !

Your explanation describes very well the meaning and is based in experience.

I think that "la la la la" its used like a bla,bla,bla but with a piece of happiness in the feeling. Something similar to heidi in the mountains.

The word atrás would be interesting in the Babel List too:

atras back zurück

Celtus, well... it's not so easy. Spa language its really difficult and there's a lot of modisms. Non translator will be able to translate cuz modisms, Orthographic mistakes and lot more. You have 1 example right there, (cuz!) which translator will be able to translate that!?

Just be patient, with time u'll learn some basic things, u only need a friend who teach you, somebody with only a few knowledge of both languages.

My eng really suck but I try to learn every single day.

You have already done the first step: "the wish of to learn"

Good luck!

Greetings;

Thanks to those who have replied. Angelwinged Devil, the mago reference
brings up to thought of what the other player types are called in Spanish
or the slang Spanish that would be encountered in the Chat Windows.
Please fill me in, you know, mage, or warlock, conjourer, warrior, knight, barbarian, archer, marksman, hunter. Also any military terms, like ambush
surround, left/right flank, charge, retreat(only to regroup of course) and
any other useful info such as the "regnum slang" for prominent landmarks
or placenames in the confilct zone and elsewhere.

Thanks again, for help with this
