Talk:Wa! Wa!! World Ondo

I translate this line "He is too proud of himself, after all!" in English, from "Jibun daisuki, yappari jan!" in Japanese.

It is because 'Jibun daisuki' is an idiomatic phrase in Japanese, not a sentense like 'watashi wa jibun ga daisuki.(I like myself.)

In the lyric "Jibun daisuki, yappari jan!", 'yappari jan' has double meaning, 'yappari' and ' Parisian'. So, this line says "That Parisian loves himself after all." There's no way saying "I (England)" in it.

It could be translated "France loves himself a lot, after all!" or "France is too proud of himself, after all!" It's on one's taste.

But the subjedt of this sentense is France. This is fixed.

I editted twice this line. But everytime I editted here, someone editted again over it as "I love myself after all".

I suppose the person doesn't know about actual Japanese.

I AM a native Japanese speaker, so can't overlook the error like this.

Pleasure to meet you! I'm Wonderful Asia!

Well when you edit the song, you should put in the notes not for another person to edit that error, since I'm not a native speaker of Japanese though I am proficient in Japanese I can't say much, but if England did say I love myself after all, wouldn't it be "ore/boku wa jibun ga daisuki"? Also I have a question wouldn't a male generally use "boku" instead of "ore" to adress ones self?

Hello, Wonderful Asia! Nice to meet you.

Yes, I know I should. Only I was not able to find the way to explain about my editting. This time I found this page, so I left the massage here.

Anyway I feel tired of editting like this, I'd like to give up all now. No one here needs help of native Japanese maybe. I feel useless here now.
