Re: Katawa Shoujo Act 1 Preview feedback thread

This is the first VN I've played and so far it's ace. It'd be nice if we could just have a "skip immediately to next choice" button, though. I know there's skip mode, but I'm talking about is "push button, receive choice dialogue". That, and a mute option in the options screen. T...

Re: In regards to Shizune

That's not really the point. Its more like... if I had a 1/10th of a penny for every time someone said they'd learn sign language to talk to me, bill gates would be asking me how I made my success. When I stopped believing people would learn sign language for me, I had a new brand of people, after ...

Re: In regards to Shizune

Oh my goodness, really? That's rather interesting. There's few ways to turn me off or get dumped by me or outright ignored by me than someone saying they would like to learn sign language to talk to me. Even if they actually go to a class I would still write them off as "not a friend anymore.&...

Re: What's this now?

so it's a game... not an anime (unfortunately, damn I'd watch that)... and it's being moved into the game section.... *scratches head* why do people seem so upset in this thread? it kinda makes perfect sense. Eh, I don't think people are bothered by it, more like "Oh hey, this happened and is ...

Re: In regards to Shizune

I was having an amusing thought earlier. I was wondering what the ero-scenes with Shizune would be like. I thought to myself that there would definitely be a scene with MishaxShizune in it together. Because I mean, they are always together. So continuing down that line of thought I was thinking of ...

Re: In regards to Shizune

To qualify as a Service Animal you must perform a function that alleviates three or more issues related to your disability. Many service dogs only have three to five, Priscilla meets seventeen. I know I'm probably being nitpicky, but Priscilla is important to me and it is important to me that she b...

Re: Hisao's name is ironic?

As for the grammar, English doesn't have a lot of inflection (stuff like declensions, gender, plurals, tense, ...) and has very regular systems for plurals and tense, so you can hack together a bunch of words and as long as they're in close to the right order you should be understood. Has anyone re...

Re: Hisao's name is ironic?

Well English really is a bit of everything. It has bits of Indo-European, bits of Germanic, bits of French and bits of - no surprises here - Anglo-Saxon, even though that last one is being seriously challenged now. The grammatical system is so fluid that pretty much anything can be added in to the ...

Re: Really really REALLY dumb questions

In that case, how do you say "Oro" in Sign Language? Do speech quirks like that even translate into signs at all? You can hop over to the "In regards to Shizune thread" for a really long explanation (by me as a Guest before I regged), but the short one is that Japanese Sign Lang...

Re: How'd you find yourself here?

I'd heard about KS before and was like :roll:, but then a friend who's a channer linked me to the game and I thought "what the heck, it looks fun, why not?" Cue really liking the demo and eventually finding my way here from the main site.

Linear B: Thank goodness. I'll need to ask you a few things, but not about gesture or sound based languages, but language in general.

Re: In regards to Shizune

Now I just wish that linguistics mayor hadn't been a Guest ... I registered after that, once I realized people might ask some more questions. I don't actually know ASL; I was more sewing together what I'd read about it with what I know about natural language acquisition. It's on my list of "la...

Re: In regards to Shizune

That's the best answer I can come up with unless someone's more specific. Ok, grabbed an account. When I asked I meant more like: Misha said she started interpreting for Shizune after she ended up in the desk next to her, so presumably they were in a hearing class. But she also mentioned that Shizu...
