RE4 Spanish Translation Project

[Dot50Cal]

Hello guys, Since we seem to have so many members who are willing and able to help out in this, I figured we'd make this as public as possible to help coordinate and discuss accuracy in a fair and open environment :)

I'll be posting some videos soon which I need translated into English. All members who help out here will get credit for their help when the videos are posted.

I want to say that I greatly appreciate you guys help and enthusiasm for this, it won't be forgotten :)

[RE-Hiro]

Maybe the real matter is placing geographically pueblo by its slang :rollseyes

[Dot50Cal]

I'm sorry I've neglected this guys, I'll get on this as soon as I can. Other stuff has been flooding in and taking priority over it. I'll dedicate some time to it tomorrow. Again, sorry!

This will come in handy if you're going to try to pinpoint the region in spain with the appropriate dialect...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Spain_languages.PNG

My guess would be the northern part, which speaks Astur-Leonese, which is host to the León province. But then again, that would be too obvious of a choice :P

[LeigiBoy]

Actually "los ganados" speak Spanish(Español) and have no accent of any particular region is rather as a neutral Spanish (typical in voice actors in anime or movies for latinamerica) with some typical expressions of Spain as "coño" (degrading way of saying vagina), "Cabron" (insult for people annoying)

Some Spanish fans say they speak with Mexican accent...

and i think The Japanese are not known to Spaniards but the Spaniards are not know to Mexicans XD

[Joseph Frost]

I would love to help on This!!!


I am from Venezuala! :)

[Dot50Cal]

Ok, I have a cutscene video pack encoding right now. It will be up to you guys then to transcribe what the words they say in Spanish are, and then the English translation ;)

I'll have the video up in a few hours. Anyone who helps out for this will get mentioned on the Resident Evil 4 Cutscenes video page which will go up sometime soon after this project is completed :)

In the future, I may need some more help when we can get the individual audio files of dialog that is said in-game. That will probably be much further down the line though.

[Dot50Cal]

Ok, here it is. Use save target as ;)

This is the second transcription of the cut scenes... my pc died in the process of translating them the first time and I had no backup then... ¬¬. Hope you find it accurate. Oddly enough, there's not much participation of the female ganados on the cut scenes =/.

[Dot50Cal]

Wow, awesome work Ridley :) If anyone else wants to offer their opinions, please do! When I get off work I'll try to re-word some of the sentences so they sound more fluid in English, but I'll need your approval ;) Thanks so much Ridley!

Also, I almost forgot about the Separate Ways cutscenes. I'll see if I can get a clip of those (if there are any that need translating) asap.

[Project Omega]

Ridley's translations are spot on Dot :)

[Dot50Cal]

;) Ok, I'll have some Separate Ways cutscenes up in a little bit.

[Dot50Cal]

Ok, heres some from Separate Ways :) If someone can tackle this one, I think that about mops it up for the RE4 Cutscenes!

There are some parts in the script that I can't understand at all, if anyone can post what you think they say I'll be very grateful n_n.

[Dot50Cal]

Thanks again, Ridley :) Absolutely excellent work.

[Project Omega]

Here are some corrections I would make, but that might also be since I've grown up learning two different regional dialects (South American and Carribbean Spanish)

• "¡Búsquenlo y rómpanlo en pedazos!" I think would better translate to "Find him and break him into peices!"

• "¡Te cogí!" - "I got/found/caught you!". Either one can be used in the translation and still mean the same as "te cogi".

• "¡Ni un paso más!" - "Not one more step!" or "Not another step!"

• "Coño", it's a slang word for pussy in my girlfriends country, but as Ridley pointed out, it can be used the same way we would say "Fuck!", "Damn!", "Shit!" out of frustration/anger.

• "¡Agárrenlo!" - "Grab him!"

• "Vayan por detrás." - "Go around back." Essentially instructing the others to go around to catch him from the other side.

• "¡Se vuelve loco!" - "It's going crazy"

• "¡No dejéis que se escape!" - "Don't let him escape!"

[Ridley W. Hayes]

As I'm not an english native speaker I don't express myself prefectly, but I do my best :p. PO, your corrections are totally accurate =).

Is there someone that hear the parts of the dialogue that I miss? That would complete the spanish script.

[Dot50Cal]

Yep, I'd love to hear more peoples input. People seemed very enthusiastic to help, but I've only seen Ridley and PO participating now.
