､ｪｳﾚ､ｷ､ﾟ､ｯ､ﾀ､ｵ､､｡ｪ(O tanoshimi kudasai!) Explanation: I don't think there is a direct translation. Literaly speaking Japanese for "celebrate" is "Iwai mashou!". However in my view anyone who think eating chocolate truffle is something to be celebrated would be the manufacturer or seller of the chocolate (for obvious reason). As such, no Japanese would thinki they have to celebrate when they eat this chocolate. Therefore, it is clear this is a sales pitch enticing people to buy and eat that stuff. So let say what it says. "(Let buy, eat and) enjoy!". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-19 04:04:10 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This is nothing to do with answering the asker. It's about two-binary characters such as Japanese. Why it's in Mojibake (scrambling and illegible) on the screen? As I can read my characters I assumed anyone can. But a comment given to me in this page tells that's not so. ProZ administrater, is there any solution to this problem? |

peer agreement (net): +1| celebrate! おめでとう！(Omedetou!) Explanation: Whenever we celebrate something, no matter what occasion it is, the Japanese say おめでとう(omedetou), whereas expressions vary in English. Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, marriages, passing exams, childbirths, new years or any happy occasion. For this purpose, I think this word will fit perfectly. |

ご贈答に、ギフトに！ （Gozoto ni, gift ni) Explanation: ご贈答に、ギフトに！ （Gozoto ni, gift ni) It sounds like marchant is suggesting that box of chocolates for gift or cerebration. Just to indicate that remarks can be translated to as avobe, as casual suggestion. Gozoto - formal way of saying gift, present gift - Katakana-Eigo ギフト |
