Introduction to Very Bad Translations

 Hello everyone. 

As the name goes, this is a place for very bad translations... meaning I am translating Raws without speaking the original language. This is mostly due to me wanting to read certain books that have not been translated yet, but since I am already translating them for myself, I figured I may as well post them here for others to read.

I will not have any type of schedule for what I'm posting here, it's just whenever I have free time.

Thank you for visiting, I hope they are at least enjoyable :)

Exclusive Memory Chapter 11 Part 3

The next day, Zhang Lili said nothing about her drunken talk about her network status. I don't know if she remembers and pretends that nothing happened. The busyness and fulfillment of military training suddenly diluted the impression of this matter in my mind. Seeing these half-grown children leave their parents and come here to study, I can't help but think of myself back then. "Teacher, when you let your hair down, you look a bit like that sassy girlfriend." A boy said. "What sassy girlfriend?" I wondered. "It's the Korean drama "My Sassy Girl"." "Actually, there is quite a difference in figure." I said modestly. "It's not about the height, it's mainly about the bun face." "..." Is this kid bullying me? What bun face, this is called baby fat, I complained wordlessly in my heart. On the way, Zhang Lili and I took a ride back to the city to do some shopping, but unexpectedly, we ran into Chen Tin...

 Hello! I have decided to pick Exclusive Memory  by Mu Fusheng (My One And Only Love) AKA Somewhere Only We Know (Cdrama on Netflix - great watch!) The Novel is divided into chapters and parts; i.e., Chapter 1 Part 1 The wonderful Fei's Heaven Fei-fei started this but has not uploaded in a a while, however her translations and notes are awesome, please go give her some love. Reading her version is what made me want to translate the rest of this so please please please support her. I will post links to her chapter releases here over mine so please read her versions from her site. I will update this if she releases more. I am hoping she will continue to do translations because I really enjoy reading them when they are coming from someone who actually speaks the language. I am sure there are a lot of idioms and phrases that I will misinterpret or won't understand correctly in mine, but I will do my best. I will also post a link to her chapter list at the bottom in case I do not s...

Exclusive Memory Chapter 8 Part 4

 On the third day after the exam, I got on the long-distance bus to City B. Mom's prison is not far from the urban area. Originally, the unit rented her a three-bedroom house in the urban area. She usually thinks it is far away from the prison, so she seldom goes there, so she lives in the dormitory of the unit. The dormitory is actually a tube building, the toilets and bathrooms are shared, and meals can only be settled in the cafeteria. After I came here, everything felt inconvenient, and it was not as good as our school. So, she followed me back to the city. When moving things, several of my mother's colleagues came to help, including an uncle in his fifties, who was particularly enthusiastic, and the young driver kept smiling and calling him "Political Commissar Chen". Since the last quarrel with her in the cemetery, I have been extremely sensitive to the word "Chen" and have squinted at the "Political Commissar Chen" many times. He is not tall...
