I’m not even sure right now what the tensei would be for “Pirate Monkey Astronaut Goes to Jupiter-Two (The Bigger One)”
Oddly enough, “Monkey” might be the hardest word in that title to translate into Tensei.
Well, they’re aware of at least one species of monkey. Although if they derive their term for the entire order from their word for “human”, some people might take offense…
The amount of new words that are going to have to be added into Tensei is probably going to be quite extensive if they don’t know too much about space along with different types of land. I can’t imagine that they would know too much about deserts for one thing, or any non-aquatic animals. Even ocean animals they might not know much about. I don’t know how much the general public was kept in the dark about the world outside of the lakes, but I can’t imagine that any of those terms were in general use.
I wonder if they will turn English words into a Tensei ones like “Wasei Eigo”, make a rough definition equivalent from actual Tensei words or just make a completely new word?
Nevermind not knowing about deserts or non-aquatic animals. They’re not even going to know about the freshwater animals of lakes on other continents.
Typically when a culture encounters something new that is introduced to them by a different culture, they use the same word (thought it will be spelled in a way to be phonetic for that culture).
has selkie ever done an allnighter?
This isn’t possibly going to end badly. Not with THAT look in Selkie’s eyes….
whydid i think of the smolder after yousaid that and i looked. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa ─=≡Σ(╯°□°)╯︵┻┻
Kids these days just have no sense of history. Jupiter 2 was the name of the spaceship from the series Lost in Space. Remember “Danger Will Robinson, danger!!”
Does a culture that lives underwater even pay attention astronomy?
I mean, they could, if they swam to the surface occasionally, but if that were common then humans would have noticed them sooner.
They’ve probably noticed the sun and moon, at least, but Jupiter is another matter.
