Anyway, according to zelda.gamepedia, the German title is in fact “The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening”:'s_Awakening#Nomenclature
Lastly, I see klassische tends to be used for things like “Klassische Musik” und “Klassische Physik” (i.e. classical music and classical physics), so I’m willing to bet that it actually parallels the English ‘classical’, which isn’t interchangable with ‘classic’ and wouldn’t be applied to games.

Should be: “Natürlich. Mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut, weil ich Engländer bin.”
“Engländer” = A person from England
Pls don’t. :joy:
Wrong, classic is not a german word. my mistake. :joy: @CDR_Xavier is right here.
Correct translation would have been “Arduventure ist ein brand neues aber klassisches 8-Bit Rollenspiel”.
Note that I’m everything but a grammar pro nor a good translator. :wink:
yeah, that’s the normal PAL name for the game.

Reminds me of Spın̈al Tap. Umlauts everywhere they shouldn’t be.

Could’ve been worse, it’s been over half a decade.
(And I only got a C. I didn’t want to do German but the teacher wouldn’t believe I wasn’t very good at it.)
As for the misplaced umlaut, I blame my stomach:
I guess really not. It would have avoided confusion, yes. But I think it is more of … like I know that british would get annoyed if they are looking at EN-US and vice versa with EN-EN / UK. But you never have EN-AU or Singapore variants.
I think of the “ford” and “General Motor” case of Autstrilia in cases like this. People either buy ford cars or GM cars. “GM guys” will call people who buy ford “Ford guy” and sometimes they look down on them, vise versa.
It would be great to have them, but I guess it wouldn’t be necessary for now. (we aren’t really official translators anyway)

It really is annoying when native English is not an available language option especially when we butcher the language so well ourselves.
On the other hand I prefer Australian for my satnav “ya av reached ya destination, windows up n don’t let the seagulls steal ya chips”.

The version of Minesweeper I was working on was due to have an EN-AU option. It would have been exactly the same as EN-UK, but I thought I’d include it anyway. I would also have considered EN-NZ and EN-CA.
Innit blud? Das well bad man.
The sad thing is you don’t even need to go to the seaside to have seagulls steal your chips, they’re gradually moving inland.

Scottish Workplace Journey Challenge launched
Sustrans Scotland is encouraging people to travel more actively to work by inviting them to join the Scottish Workplace Journey Challenge. Funded by Transport Scotland. The free, month-long Challenge helps to inspire people to travel in ways that benefit their health, wellbeing and the environment.
Workplaces from across Scotland will compete against each other to see who can clock up the most walking, cycling, public transport and car-sharing journeys between 1–31 March, in a bid to win more than £2,000 worth of prizes.
Participants will use an online platform to log their sustainable journeys and compete to climb a leader board. They will have access to feedback on how many calories they’ve burned and the amount of money they’ve saved on each journey by choosing healthy, green and cheap alternatives to driving.
Individual challengers will also be judged on the number of journeys they complete while workplaces are judged on the overall rate of participation in the team.

Tokyo Michelin tour: Michelin star food truck
Pin It
In the middle of planning my Tokyo itinerary with friends, I came across a post on Food Sake Tokyo sharing the news that Chef Yoshihiro Narisawa, whose Michelin 2-star restaurant Narisawa is one place I recommend to a lot of friends visiting Tokyo, had just launched his food truck.
FOOD TRUCK?!  In Tokyo?!  From a chef with Michelin stars?!
This I gotta check out.
A couple of friends saw the PSA I made on Facebook, and reported back positively on their experience.  My friends who were going on this trip with me were all very excited to find a real food truck in Asia, and were eagerly waiting for the chance to check it out.  I had some free slots during the early part of my trip,...
So on day 2 of my trip, as the sun was out and the sky was blue, I suggested to Cow and Chicken that we hit the truck.  They very kindly obliged and drove me over to Tokyo Midtown.  The food truck was parked next to the Diners Club Ice Rink, and looked like it was also sponsored by Diners Club.  I was giddy with antici...
Funnily enough, I ran into my colleague and his friends while at the food truck.  We happened to take the same redeye flight up, and I had told him about this... so it was a funny coincidence that we'd show up at the same time.
You can order a bowl of stew/soup or a sandwich separately, but I decided to take them as a set.  Just a regular "soup and sandwich" from a food truck...  Only he's not serving his usual creative French food here.  Chef Narisawa's decided to feature traditional dishes from different regions of Japan.
Hakata spicy "motsu" giblets stew (博多のピリ辛モツ煮) - there was never any question about which bowl of stew I would get... Once I saw the word "giblets" it was a done deal.  The bowl was full of pig intestines... and the fact that big chunks of fat/lining were still attached to the intestine walls made it even better.  This ...
For the sandwich, the bread was the special blessings of rice with 18 mixed grains (十八穀米の惠み), while for filling I chose special pork "Yongenton" soaked in "Kan Kouji" rice malt (四元豚の寒麹漬け) - a specialty from Akita Prefecture (秋田県).  The bread was amazing... crispy on the outside, light and airy on the inside.  The filli...
A really, really good meal for a reasonable price.  When I first finished my lunch - which we ate while standing outside in the cold by the truck - I didn't think I had enough food.  I was no longer hungry, but didn't quite get that "OMG I'm so full" feeling.  After we stepped indoors and walked around Tokyo Midtown, g...
On day 4, it was time to take the gang from Hong Kong to the truck.  Unfortunately the weather had turned and it started to rain a little.  We were afraid that the truck would be closed, as the ice rink might not be open for business when it rains.  Thankfully the truck was still operating when we got there, and we duc...
This time I ate the sandwich first, and the filling I chose today was teriyaki chicken leg (鶏もも肉の照り焼き), which comes from Ibaraki Prefecture (茨城県).  Very nice.  Can't go wrong with chicken teriyaki, can ya?
Kiritanpo (きりたんぽ) - a regional specialty from Akita Prefecture, this seemed much lighter than the other choice that I hadn't tried.  The traditional tube-shaped rice cake, with some chicken, shirataki (白滝), and plenty of spring onions and coriander - all in a relatively clear soup.
Deep-fried oysters (カキフライ) - nice and thin batter.
Yet another satisfying lunch, and I was happy to have shared it with the gang.  Too bad we couldn't have sat comfortably at the many outdoor tables, as it was raining a little hard.  I'm glad I made it to the food truck twice, and glad that a chef of Narisawa's caliber has taken the initiative to do this.
I wonder if he got the idea after watching the movie Chef...

Very similar to my experience. The pork sandwich was amazing and made the detour into Tokyo worth it.
