    Having tried translating lyrics between languages before (English/Arabic/Spanish) I am thoroughly impressed at the lengths you went to in researching and crafting the best possible translation (even managing to slip in some fun puns and word-plays in order to try to preserve the fun feeling of the original). Very well done. I think song lyrics and poems are the hardest things to translate, right up there with jokes (since those often carry cultural considerations that are even more difficult to translate than just the words).
    Anyone expecting an artistic translation* like this to translate directly back into English without any changes simply doesn't understand how language works.
    *Or any translation for that matter!

    • @felipevasconcelos6736
      @felipevasconcelos6736 2 года назад +22

      It is sometimes possible to make a translation such that the most natural backtranslation would be the original text, but usually that’s a bad translation. Sometimes I read a book that was translated from English and the translation is so literal I can reverse-engineer the original English text, which’s the only way to know what it was supposed to mean.

      I think it’s because Asuli is three syllables while Ashley is two, and in the song when saying her name it’s spread out across three notes, so while Asuli fits that perfectly, Ashley’s first syllable has to get stretched out across the first two notes, which sounds more awkward

    I see you like toki pona a lot, and I agree, it's great, but it is very difficult to describe more complex things in it, however, a complex language wouldn't be great because it would be too much work to learn if you just wanted to casually talk to someone with simple concepts. This brings me to my idea, what if instead of just one simple language, there was one simple language, and another less simple language for describing more complicated things, kind of like an auxlang and an artlang meant to be used with each other, toki pona would be a great contender for the simple language. I was just wondering what you thought of this idea

    I've been looking up the Japanese version for awhile now, and I can't find a translation for "nuwa buna nuu, jio ira un, io di emu" (0:37-0:44). Does anyone know what it translates to?

      The idea is that it's something backwards (am us iw al i ol i p on a) but I can't tell exactly what combinations of letters are right. At the very least probably "a musi" at the start which means "oh fun" unless I have something wrong
      Edit: never mind the first part is ma suwi which means cute place or something similar. Almost like a rhythym paradise of some sort. A paradise made in heaven.
      Edit 2: okay so I think it's meant to be "ma suwi la oli pona" which means "heaven is good games"! It could mean lots of other things though.

    Maybe I am getting too fluent in toki pona but "sina sona e jan ni: jan Asuli" slaps way too hard.

      This is my new favorite jan Misali song, seriously good job with it.
      The part that has me coming back is:
      "...li jo ala e jan pona mute/sina wile ala wile jan pona mi/ala la sina pini"
      Threatening someone to be your friend is probably the most naturally toki pona sentence that has ever been written, and quite possibly ever will be. This entire conlang was created specifically so such words could be uttered and understood in it, and it has succeeded in that task.
