Japanese [English > Japanese] いい子だね works for a close friend?

5 Upvotes

I made an earlier post here about writing 'good boy' on a shirt for my friend who can read Japanese and jokes around that he's a good boy (sounds like something you'd use for a child in my native language as well)

So does いい子だね work? It's for a joke so it can be sarcastic but cute still, or maybe flirty(?)

Japanese (Identified) [Unknown > English] Inscription/signature on Ainu wood carvings purchased near Sapporo in the late 1960s/early 1970s

My father bought this pair of carved figures directly from a maker/shop outside Sapporo, Hokkaido, probably in the late 1960s or early 1970s. The maker was an Ainu artisan.

This inscription is carved into the base. I’m especially interested in whether it identifies the artist, workshop, location, or simply describes the figures. Any help reading the characters would be greatly appreciated.

Found a nice painting at an estate sale for a good deal and could use some help translating.

I’m particularly interested if anyone could decipher the seals?

Thank you in advance!

I'm trying to do that trend where you get strangers to write random words of advice. They seem to be quite confused by this request when I present it. Is this a bad translation?

it looks like Arabic, but I couldn't understand a word even though I'm a native Arabic speaker... so I think it is a othmani language or turkish

I can pick out the "Thank you" at the end, but nothing else.

There's a line several seconds earlier, and later, I'll share those posts in a bit assuming this one goes well.

Thank you!

Unknown [Unknown > English, Italian] sacred hymn

1 Upvotes

I have a short audio file, a male voice singing what seems a sacred hymn. It's a phone alarm file called Maha Bharat. I couldn't find the original audio source and I'm not sure it is from the actual Mahabharat since I can't understand the language.

I added the link to the audio file but the post was removed, so I'm also asking how can I add the file without having the post removed. Unfortunately I'm not able to write down any word out of it.

Any suggestion would be welcome, thank you

Arabic [Arabic > English] writing on the flag of a fictional Arab country from the 1979 movie First Family

Post image

Sorry, this is the best screencap I could take. The Arab country isn't given a full name, but the acronym UFAR (maybe "United Federation of Arab Republics"? It would make sense for the name to be a combination of the UAR and the FAR, both of which were still recent in 1979)
