Confused

[Gambit]

All right I don't know much Japanese but I was wondering if anyone could confirm that I've got this translated right.

Sango=love
Kagome=Live true
youkai=demon
taiyoukai=great demon
houshi=monk
taijiya=demon slayer
sama or dono are used to confer great respect
okaa-san=mother
hotaru=greasshopper
naraku=hell
baka=idiot
tenshi=angel
kinryouku=sanctuary
kitsune=fox
the only other things that I know are some honorifics and that's about it.

that's a bit confusing...

[kukutaru_ookami]

I understand it but I thought Kagome's name litterally translated was either woven bamboo or kagome shippo means 7 treasures Narku also can mean mathroom and Dono is usally used between lovers and I'm fairly certian you got the rest right

thx I thought Kagome meant Live true because that's what I saw on a bottle of some kind of energy drink in the store a few days ago.

oh! I remember reading in the Manga 'Wish' that Sango meant coral, is that right?

[kukutaru_ookami]

yep Sango means coral and miruko means something that I can't remember its been awhile since I've been to dierct translation theater

[Atashi]

sango means coral!!!!! i'm not to sure about the rest though although i didn't really look at them much

[Gambit]

Aren't there different dialects too?

[Hoshi_Hikari]

I heard that Naraku means hell..if that helps at all...

[Crystalbear]

I belive that Miroku's name means "Worshipper of Budda."

Someone once told me that Inuyasha means female demon. Another one said it meant friendly spirit.

[asdfsdf]

Naraku means Hades.
Jigoku means Hell.
The difference? I barely know.

Miroku I believe means something the lines of... how should I say this...

Blissfully saves people.

Yeah... I guess that works
