I Put TGCF Names Through Google Translate... What Kind of Translations Will I Get???

[@TytheCanasian]

I deeply apologize for the titles of ascensions, I messed some of them up. My mind was busy with final projects of the term so they weren't working properly T_T The ones in error were 少君倾酒 and 太子悦神 which were Shi Qingxuan and Xie Lian's title of ascensions.

Waiting for ur Erha explanation.. not depend on Google translation :) 😀

LAUGHS NOW IMAGINE ME, 1 YEAR AGO, DOING THIS WITHOUT SOMEONE LIKE YOU HELPING ME, AND BEING LIKE "AH YES, XIE LIAN MEANS THANK YOU THAT'S SO COOL"

Hello Kictor ( ╹▽╹ )

[@tohru-adachi-true-legit-real]

Lmao

[@Ayumikii]

My problem is I know a little bit of Chinese. So, while I don't know how to read (most) characters, I know a few and can recognize the radicals. This causes problems where I sit there and stare at the characters trying to take apart the characters to get the meaning...But then I don't have any ability to know how to pronounce them. *edit* There's also problems with simplified Chinese because the radicals change >.>

[@hildramistiles4954]

"Blood Rain Exploring Flowers"... We already know Dora the explorer, could it be that we now have blood rain the explorer?

[@ItzeltheGoddess]

Blood rain, blood rain, blood rain, blood rain exploring floweeeeers

[@TytheCanasian]

OMGOSH AHAHAHAHHAHAHA

[@aldsyirgg728]

I always got hooked up about this translation though cuz it sounds like referring Huacheng as the Blood Rain who’s exploring the flower :[ while it is okay to interpret it that way, it doesn’t fit with how Huacheng is portrayed especially when it comes to Xielian-matters (I mean, look at how they’re getting lovey-dovey and protective there)…. My own way of translating that would be “amidst the blood rain, seeking/searching/reaching out for the flower” :[ and now it doesn’t fit like a proper English title. 😂 the way Chinese character works simply contradicts with English (for people who don’t know Chinese, each character, especially verbs, can have several closely-represented meanings, and Chinese interpret it depending on the context -- the beauty of the language is also that it can have multiple meanings with one word though :))

[@fluffalcat]

"disaster in white clothes" is sending me that's literally him

[@weiwuxian3155]

My favourite TGCF character is “Flower City”

[@medh7650]

Yes, “Shi Qingxuan” simply means “Shi Qingxuan.” He/she is too fabulous to have their name translated into English

[@ch0c0t3ddy6]

Lol we all know google translate is not a reliable source XD “Com’n google, I know you can do better.”

[@julioliarts]

I think depending on how much a word is searched on google translate determines how well it is translated since people can give suggestions on how they can improve. Like one time I tried to translate this very colloquial word in spanish and the translation was so wrong, i can't remember rn tho ;;

[@bleedofcherries]

omggg you wanna hear something funny? so Gŭzi means "millet" and in spanish the word for "millet" is "mijo" [mee-ho] which is phonetically read the same as "mi hijo" [mee-e-ho] (my son), so considering Gŭzi and Qi Rong's relationship I find it both interesting and hilarious! Great vid, by the way. When I first read Tian Guan Ci Fu and Mo Dao Zu Shi, I put all the names through the translator to be able to pronounce them correctly at least in my head while reading, but it is so much better to hear how do YOU pronounce them

[@TytheCanasian]

In Chinese it would be "The Blessings of an Official from Heaven (the person)

[@bleedofcherries]

@@TytheCanasian thx so much for answering this ♡

[@ItzeltheGoddess]

Damn Ty. Nice hairstyle. It suits you. And I feel your pain. I’ve used Google Translate to try to translate words I already know in other languages and Google was worse than the kid in third grade who thought box in Spanish was “boxa”

[@lemonylean4058]

Google translate is definitely…interesting 😂 I’ll admit I’ve used it to translate Spanish in school and all teachers say not to use it but imo if you just write one word or two it’s not that bad, just don’t write full sentences! Before your video of pronouncing TGCF names came out I actually used translate to hear how the names are pronounced in Chinese…let’s just say it took some time to somewhat learn the pronunciation XD Fun video! Maybe next time you can try translating some famous TGCF quotes and see if google gets the meaning right? ☺️

[@elizabethtamm3629]

So what I'm hearing is that I shouldn't use Google translate in my Chinese class 🤣

[@betsey96]

The one for Banyue could be explained away that months were determined by moonphases so moon=month I guess idk 🤣🤣🤣

[@newname3718]

Yea you are right, but one needs a few second to process to leap from a person's name to a duration 😂😂

[@chibivesicle9612]

would a translation of flower/petal valkyrie make more sense? when i heard corolla, i immediately thought it was referring to a flower petal or something like that and i see the character for flower in it. and yes, i am a plant biologist so i am biased. :P

[@TytheCanasian]

Probably xD At first I was thinking of corona XD

Google can mess up a translation from one language to another one royally!! Remember this is why we have human beings like you, Marcus, and Lady X

[@locoleman4466]

Thank you for the link. Google give the craziest translations. I get so annoyed with Google translations and especially when it comes down the subtitles.
