I am writing translations for Japanese-English for diving purposes for those of you interested in diving in Japan, hopefully you will find this useful here is the link to my site
 
Some good phrases there, very very useful. I need to learn more diving Japanese. If I think up a list, could you add it? お願いします?At the moment I blunder through, with katakana eigo and a few japanese words thrown in. More vocab would be marvelous.
 
o ringu ga naindesu!!

tanku kara kuki deteimasu!!!!


that means:

watch out, you are about to step on a spiny sea urchin!!

oh dear, you pierced your booty with its rather sharp spines!!!!



oh, and as a public service, here are the same phrases in Spanish:

cuidado! una orchidia feroz se acerca!!

que lastima! la orchidia te mordio en el trasero!!!!


and in Frech:

sacre bleue! le chien arrivez dan la campagne aujourd'hui!!

mon dieu!! il est un chien tres mechont!!!!
 
Welcome to SB. Some day I hope to dive Japan (Okinawa?). I hear the ratio of female:male divers there is 4:1.
 
Air One:
And if you go back to english :

confound it ! The dog arrived in the country side today !
My god !It is a very bad dog!
:)


dang, wrong stickie...

where did i put the sea urchin one???

:wink:

oh yeah... here we go


le chataigne de mer lire sur les levres dans le parc d'attractions

mais oui, son motoculteur est grassement gagnant
 
Andy you need some work on your Japanese along with your French.

Dr. Bill the ratios is now about 3:1 I believe but still thats not bad. Lots of tourists girls looking for taiken dives also!!!:wink:
 
Are there many/any gaijin instructors working in Japan? I spent three years in Nagoya on the JET programme and am considering a return. The plan would be to learn more nihongo to enable me to teach in it, work as an english teacher full time and get a diving arubeito. Any pointers for me?
