What is an English translation of this Japanese sentence?
"I came back to Taiwan, became a professor at Taipei Imperial University in 1928, then continued in the same capacity at Kyoto Imperial University in 1936."I guess this is a Taiwanese who came back to Taiwan (after completing his studies in Japan, as Taiwan was then a colony of Japan), started teaching in 1928 (probably immediately after his return but this is not a certainty), then went back to Japan in 1936 to continue teaching..

How would you translate this sentence into English?
This is how I translate the Japanese sentence in to English:" To forecast the market potential growth, as well as to analyze the behavior of demand and the trend of the materials used for promoting this technology."In my opinion, by omitting the word "development" (開発) used in the original Japanese sentence, it will make the sentence becomes easier to understand in English.Because logically speaking, when we analyze the trend of the materials, it implies the developing process, the changes in the products or materials for promoting the technology. Actually the Japanese use the the word ”普及” which means "to spread". I think the word "promote" here is more appropriate and sounds more natural in the English sentence. The intention of promoting the technology is to make it more and more popular. Hopefully this helps and answers your question.
Can you directly translate Japanese sentences into English?
A bit of a strange question. Of course Japanese sentences can be translated into English, but I’m not sure what the word ‘directly’ means. If it means ‘can they be translated in the direct order in which they appear in Japanese’, then the answer would have to be ‘no, or yes, but they wouldn’t make much sense’. To take a very simple example ‘Eigo hanasemasu’, meaning ‘I/you/he/they can speak English’, would be, if translated directly (i.e. in the same word order) ‘English can speak’. But, depending on the context, it would be possible to translate it perfectly.If the question is posed to me personally, meaning ‘can you (i.e. me) directly translate Japanese sentences into English, then the answer would be ‘yes, I think so’.

English translated to Japanese, please.
愛人 ("aijin") is ok I guess, but that word can also be used to mean something more generic like "lover" (a person you are having somekind of serious romantic relationship). The other person doesn't necessarily have to be married. Perhaps a better word might either be 浮気者("uwakimono") or コキュ("kokyu"). The word "uwaki" can mean "unfaithful" or "cheating" and "uwaki suru" can mean "having a relationship with someone other than your spouse". So, an "uwakimono" would be a person who cheats on their spouse. The word "kokyu" is not of Japanese origin. It is taken from the French word "cocu". Anyway, a "kokyu" is used to describe a man who sleeps with the wives of other men". I guess this is similar to the English word "cuckold". There is another verb 寝取る that means "to sleep with another persons wife (husband, lover)" but this is a verb so you'll need to add objects and use it in the form of a sentence for it to make any sense.
Translate please.. this sentence is in japanese?
Without the context, it is so ambiguous that hard to grasp what it means. Because, it can be understood in several ways. 1 (literal interpretation) "The moment I fell in love with you, it's the time you part with (me?). " (I thought that he has almost fallen in love with you, and been afraid to be rejected.) 2 (literal 2) If it were "anata no koto wa, suki ni natta shunkan, anata wa tebanasu toki.", then I know you, you are the person like when you become to like it, it's the time you part with it. 3 If, as Russell pointed, second 'wa' was 'wo', "The moment I fell in love with you, it's the time I part with you."
Translate japanese to english please?
" I hope this would be a good year." Loosely translated word for word, it would be: kotoshi=this year iitoshi=good year naruto=would become iidesune=be good However, Japanese isn't really like English, in that you can translate one word exactly to another, depending on how it's said. There probably should be a "mo" or "wa" in between "kotoshi" and "iitoshi". Because, I personally think that the sentence should be kotoshi mo iitoshi ni naruto iidesune, which would mean I hope that this year would be a good year, too. Or, you should say, kotoshi wa iitoshi ni naruto iidesune, which would mean I hope this year would be a good year. Anyway, as "I hope this year would be a good year" is what it says!

Is it harder, in general, to translate from Japanese to English, or from English to Japanese?
Both very hard.But translation from Japanese to English is slightly more difficult for me.When I translate my Japanese writing directly into English, it becomes very strange. I had hard time writing in English at the beginning of learning English. Soon after I got used to thinking in English, it became much easier for me to write easier-to-understand EnglishIt seems like language affects my thought process.I tend to be more vague in Japanese than in English. It is probably because my friends can understand me even without detailed explanations. But in English, I have to be more exact since people with various background use this language. This made me think about something more carefully and understand it more exactly.Also there are tons of different levels of honorifics that are difficult to translate. So what do I do? I just don’t. It is a cultural difference that is almost impossible to explain to foreigners in a minute.From English to Japanese. This is also a tough one. Although technical writing is always easy to translate, translation of emotional texts in Novels/Movies/etc is very hard. Each culture has slightly different base for emotion.European people tend to say “I love you” more often than Japanese. They tend to be more straightforward in terms of love. Then how do I translate this? One attempt made by a famous novelist Natsume Soseki was that he translated “I love you” as “the moon is beautiful”. He made some cushion in his translation.There is always some kind of cushion in language translation to compensate for cultural differences. So how to make this cushion is always a difficult problem.
