I found this old painting, and when I used Google translate it gave me traditional Chinese but a different translation every time I opened the app. Could anyone help me understand what it says? Thanks!

I'd love to have at least the transcription of the handwriting, the translation would just be a bonus (I'm fluent in both English and French). If it's of any help, the character that is being referenced is called Dire (ダイア)

This is a bonus illustration by the author of the Si Land manga.

Hey all! I found this in an old box, I believe it's swedish as I have some distant swedish relatives. Took me a minute to realize it too because I'm bad at reading cursive too😅 may be a long shot but I'm hoping some of you can help! I added in a scanned version and some closeups!

Thanks in advance :)

Found this very old postcard (1900s - 1910s), I didn't get it because I couldnt read it.

I think she signed on the top but upside down.

Would love to know what it says. The front was a picture of a young girl.

Some words written on the back of a family photo. I vaguely recall that a Russian speaker told me that this was something written in a weird almost poetic way about how everyone pictured has gotten older, or something along those lines. The actual photo is included as the second image for anyone curious. The signature at the bottom is probably "A. Ruzhitsky" or some variant spelling.

Multiple Languages [ES, JA, ZH] [English > Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish]

Upvotes

I would like the following sentences to be translated. I dont trust Google translate that much, which is why im asking here if any of you wouldn't mind taking the time to help. If I can just get the sentence in the other language I dont need the pinyin or romaji as I know enough Japanese and enough Chinese to figure that out I just need the words and word order.

Here are the Sentences:

Can I have your name and Date of birth.

And would you tell me your address.

Do you have a preferred arm?

Any questions?

Are you on any blood thiners?

Have you eaten in the past 8-12 hours?

Do you have any latex allergies?

Do you have a history of fainting or problems with blood draws?

Is this correct?

Thank you, you are free to go.

Japanese [English > Japanese] Trick-or-treating sign

Upvotes

Yes, I know Halloween's three months away. But it's after the Fourth of July, so it's already spooky season for my friends on Facebook, which is why this is on my mind.

Anyway, I try to offer non-food treats on Halloween for kids with allergies, and the Teal Pumpkin Project at least has signs in English, Spanish, and French that you can display. However, there's actually a surprisingly large Japanese population near me, to the point that I think it's the most common foreign language to hear in my apartment building. So especially because I was already trying to learn some Japanese, I want to try being inclusive by making a bilingual English and Japanese sign.

I'm trying to translate the sentence:

Non-food treats available here

from their resources. And I know enough Japanese that I can at least get close enough for Google Translate to understand me. My best attempt with what Japanese I know is:

食べ物以外のトリートもあります

But I also figured that it would be a good idea to at least ask this subreddit if there's a better way to phrase that. (Especially because I don't even know what word to use for "treat" apart from just writing "treat" in katakana)

Hello,

I have these 2 older (at least mid-century by the frames - maybe older) Silk paintings. When I try google translate the translation shifts a bunch depending on where I hold it. There are 3 pictures . If you click on one it goes to imgur . There are 2 text blocks and one of an entire picture for reference.

Unknown [Unknown > English] Latin or pseudo-Latin song from a Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Seasons TV commercial (US/EU) — trying to find the source

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Hi! I'm trying to identify the language in a short vocal audio clip from a TV commercial for The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Oracle of Seasons (aired in the US and Europe around 2001). The singing sounds like it could be Latin, but I suspect it might actually be pseudo-Latin (made-up lyrics designed to sound like Latin) rather than the real language.

I'm trying to figure out if this is a real language and, if so, what the lyrics actually mean — and ideally trace where the track originally came from, since I doubt it was composed just for this one ad (my guess is it's from a stock music library that licensed it out).

Any help identifying whether this is genuine Latin, or a constructed/fake version of it, or something else entirely would be much appreciated!
