| kitten> | One time, a friend and I were attempting to install a CD burner in his machine. |
|
kitten> | The intstructions were translated from Japanese to English - not too bad a job, either. |
|
kitten> | However, occasionally, they will come across a word that simply does not translate, so they will use the phoenetic Japanese. |
|
kitten> | So we wound up with, you click here, you run this, you do that, ho-shin-kai, you remove the disk.. |
|
kitten> | Took it to a friend's father who speaks passable Japanese - he said "I think it means something like, 'to breathe the mystic spirit of the dark dragon'." |
|
kitten> | What that has to do with CD burners, I couldn't tell you. |
|
kitten> | But anyway. |
|
kitten> | I believe that 'zig' is akin to this phenomenon. |
