I want to try and buy some clothes from a japanese website buy cannot read all the symbols. I know theres a way of converting it to english with a language pack somehow so I can at least read it and see if they ship international.

Does anyone know where i can download the pack so japanese is converted to english or where i can find it (possibly office xp cd or windows cd?)


thanks
 
i dont think theres anything built into windows that will convert it to english the only thing i can think of is the language pack which will just make all the japenese characters display properly

they display properly already. I just dont understand them
 
The problem is that Japanese is very, very difficult to translate programmatically like this. It's grammar is just too different from English (say in comparison with English and French).

Mind you, looking at the unnaturally English that's come out from the translation, I'm guessing what the original Japanese was saying was

"We are very sorry, but your request cannot be handled at this time".


Paste in the original Japanese into a reply to this post. A few people on the board can speak Japanese to varying levels of success.
