Anime and My English Learning

My great salute to the subtitler on his ultimate choice of subtitle word for this one. Who knew that this is the best time and scene to translate it such as this? He or she must be have the powerful precise mind to throw out the powerful shot of word. This is just one of bit examples for super creative of the awesome subtitle. You may find more on this in the anime show.

Frankly, i learn so much the English through anime subtitle. My confidence to express more in English is inspired from it. The reason i love to learn English through anime subtitle because it using more natural expression to the native speaker. You’ll see more Phrasal verb and idioms both are accustomed uses in the talk and communication. If you could grasp more word from it, i’m sure you are in the close step to innate speech. For instance, “I turn down his request” is more preferable than “I reject his request”. So, the “turn down” isn’t uncommon for you to see. Rather than “reject”, it is more in a way of being formal (but sometimes it’s using the “reject” to fit the context which i will explain later) notwithstanding it is understandable, but “turn down” is reflecting more innate to preferable word of a native speaker.

And the anime subtitle is in the uniquely scrupulous with the background and context. When the story of anime is a about Medieval era, you’ll commonly see word on “knight” more than “troops” or “army”. You’ll see more “Great Holy Knight” than “Commander-In-Chief”. It’s a rare thing to see the modern English are used when it is not equivalent to the background of the story. If it was, i’m sure we have subtitler of lack of aptitude. When the anime is on the justice scene, legal and sometimes the religion or belief, you’ll often to see “thou”, “thy”, “thee”, “ye” more than “you” and “your”. This is something recognizable for people who have a long time with anime. That’s why it is a “wow”-factor for me to seize this luck as my English lesson.

I always spending my time to repeat and rewatch the anime (except the uninterested anime for mine). One is for enjoying the story. Another one is focusing on grasping the English word and speech. If i could recommend, this is some of the best way to learn the innate and appropriated context of English speech with leisure and casual.
