Japanese [English >Japanese] help write 'good boy' in Japanese

1 Upvotes

My friend jokes around how he's trying to be a good person or a 'good boy' at times and I said I should give you a badge for it atp also he can read katakana and hiragana, so for his birthday I want to write 'good boy' on a shirt in Japanese so what's the slang for that I want it to be a nuanced translation not completely literal that it doesn't make sense to a native speaker.

Translated [JA] [Japanese > English] Painting on Mt Fuji

Post image
1 Upvotes

We just got done summiting Mt Fuji and inside the Chojo Fujikan station up at the very top, there was this picture. I don’t know any Japanese so it might say “this painting is called X and is by Y” but I wouldn’t know. My wife loves the painting and we had hoped we’d find a print at the bottom of the hike but no luck. If anyone can give me any information on it so I can get a print of it I would greatly appreciate it.

If this is the wrong location for a question like this, please let me know of a more appropriate place.

"Hi everyone! I’m currently building an ordering system for an Izakaya (Japanese pub) in Japan and working on adding multi-language support (English, Chinese, and Korean). Since I’m not very familiar with the natural phrasing or cultural nuances in these languages, I’d really appreciate it if anyone could lend a hand!"

Needs Review [ARY] [unknown > english] saw this in a game i played, can't identify the language

Post image
7 Upvotes

i'm curious about "âandaki"

some context:

- the internet doesn't seem to know this word even exists, even wiktionary goes dumb

- the game is set in the second half of the XIVth century, so i assume the word might be archaic

- the game is set in italy

- the word is said by a man when a little girl (sophia) runs past; seems the message might be something like "watch out", "be careful", "slow down" etc.

- edit: the game is "resonance: a plague tale legacy", someone requested that info

i'm trying to identify the language. thank you in advance!

I found two framed seemingly old prints thrown away on a ditch covered with broken glass. I want to know a bit more about them, who might have painted them and where they are from, but the only thing besides the drawings/prints is this signature (on both drawings)

Would love to get an artist’s name. I think it also says something like “A parent’s kindness” but would like to confirm.

German [German > English] Help with old handwriting.

Post image

A transcription is honestly okay, its the handwriting that is more of a problem.

I can make out parts of it -- i.e. I see something about Nähe and later on, arbeitet keine kartoffels[?], but otherwise, I'm a bit lost between words.

Thank you. Means a lot.

Hello! I would greatly appreciate help with transcribing and translating the text in this image. Handwritten kanji give me a hard time... I know it's a lot, sorry!
If it helps, the characters names are: ボブ (Bob, eye-patch cat), マサ (Masa, sabertooth), マバヤ (Mbaya, guy at the bottom with the smug expression), ザハブ (Zahab, lion) and ジャン (Jean, wolf)
