Meanwhile mishi_a9 decided to leave LJ but changing over to tumblrShe made a post but before approving it, I recognized few things about the translations so I contacted her

This wasn't meant to be anything against mishi_a9. But I think it's important to hint on that. There are people who's mother tongue is neither Japanese nor English and they simply won't recognize. That's okay. I'm anything but fluent in Japanese, that's why I don't offer tranlsations. But nevertheless I do understand quite some of the tweets and comparing them to the translations it's not an exact translation. That doesn't matter, I talked quite a lot to her and why she's using the translator. I don't read the translation because to me (but that is my personal view) they make less sense than the original entries. Someone who doesn't understand Japanese will have a different view on this. But they just should be aware, the translation might not be 100 % correct. That's all I wanted to say with my entry.
