Omg, I've had my fic, 'Love for the Strong', translated into Chinese-- here!! AHAHAHAHA THIS IS INSANE. She actually wrote me to ask permission, and there it is!! It's got some untranslated parts still in the original English amongst the Chinese text, and it looks hilarious.

If someone can read Chinese, I'd love it if you guys could tell me just how bad of a translation it is :D :D :D :D *cracking up* All those exclamation points and ellipses look so hilarious, omg :D For serious. And the last line, "You always hurt the ones you love," is also in English. Priceless >:D

*ggg* You could even hang it up in your room for everyone to see!


I've been wondering how quickly I'd be able to write slash in French when I start a refresher course next week ...

I think this is a very, um, literal translation of your work. The sentences are almost translated word for word, line by line, which I find hard to read sometimes. Having said that, many chinese translation of published works are like that, and since I can't tranlate either way I guess I shouldn't be complaining.

Btw, her choice of words is beautiful and carefully crafted. I wish I had half of her vocabulary.
