His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

After a delirious first night together, Shi Guang found herself waking up to a cruel reality… a breakup initiated by him, ending their relationship! What? Why? How? These were the questions that bugged Shi Guang’s mind in the two years after he left without a trace. Just as she thought that she had finally managed to get over him, Lu Yanchen suddenly appeared before her and before she knew it, she had to get married to this man who had dumped her two years ago?! What? Why? How? These were the questions that Shi Guang were faced with after his mysterious appearance once more. Just what are Young Master Lu’s motives? Why is he always watching out for her even though he was the one that had dumped her? And worst still… What’s with that tsundere attitude of his…?! Translator’s Review: This is a really sweet novel about a couple that just annoys one another in the cutest ways. Lu Yanchen is a descendant of a powerful aristocratic military family. Cold, aloof, genius and sharp, this is a man that has it all – status, smarts and looks. But none of that matters when it comes to affairs involving his silly woman as everything melts away into an encompassing warmth. Purple-Red Beauty is someone that spends a lot of time building the settings of her novels. Earlier on, I too was rather annoyed at some of the things that Lu Yanchen did. But once the story gets on track… everything suddenly seemed even sweeter than before! If any of you have heard of the Japanese manga Itazura na Kiss or have caught any of the many Japanese (Mischievous Kiss), Chinese (It Started With A Kiss) and Korean (Playful Kiss) drama reboots made for it, you will definitely love it! :P

Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated.

Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Well, in solitary translations of light novels, a big challenge is dealing with idiomatic expressions. Light novels are full of them, and they don't always have direct equivalents in other languages. So, the translator has to get creative and find ways to convey the same meaning without losing the essence. Also, light novels might be part of a series. In that case, a solitary translator needs to keep track of all the previous installments to ensure continuity. This can be a headache, especially if there are a lot of plot threads and character arcs to follow. And then there's the problem of pacing. The translator has to make sure that the translated version has a similar pacing to the original, which isn't easy when working alone.

Korean machine translations for light novels can be a great resource. There are several tools available that can help with this. For example, Google Translate can offer a basic translation. However, it may not always be perfect for the nuances in light novels. Another option could be Papago, which is known for its relatively accurate translations, especially for Korean. But when it comes to light novels, the specific jargon and cultural references can pose challenges even for these advanced translation tools. Overall, while machine translations are convenient, they might require some post - editing by someone with knowledge of both languages and the light novel genre.
What are the challenges in oxymoronic translations of light novels?

One challenge could be maintaining the essence of the original work while dealing with oxymoronic elements. Translators need to find words in the target language that can convey the same sense of contradiction. For example, if the light novel has a phrase like 'loud silence' in the original language, the translator has to search for a combination of words in the target language that gives a similar oxymoronic feel. Another challenge is cultural differences. An oxymoron that makes sense in one culture may not be as easily understood in another. So, the translator has to be careful not to lose the intended meaning due to cultural misunderstandings.

In general, the official translations are quite accurate. They go through a process of review and editing to ensure that the story is conveyed as closely as possible to the original Japanese. But of course, no translation can be 100% perfect. There could be some words or phrases that don't have an exact equivalent in English, and in those cases, the translator has to make a choice that might not be exactly how a Japanese reader would interpret it. For fan - made translations, the accuracy can vary widely depending on the skill and knowledge of the translator.

The specialized vocabulary related to circuses is another hurdle. Terms like 'trapeze artist', 'ringmaster', or 'juggler' need to be translated precisely. In light novels, these words need to fit the overall tone and style of the story. Sometimes, finding the exact equivalent in another language that also conveys the right mood can be a struggle.
What are some examples of oxymoronic translations in light novels?
2 answers

One example could be when a very formal and archaic term is used to translate a modern and casual expression in a light novel. For instance, using 'thou' and 'doth' in English to translate a simple 'you' and 'do' in a contemporary - speaking character's dialogue in the original Japanese light novel. This creates an oxymoronic effect as it clashes with the overall modern and often youth - targeted feel of light novels.

There are several challenges. Firstly, the complex grammar and syntax of some languages in which light novels are written can be difficult for machine translations to handle. Secondly, the use of made - up words or new terms in light novels. These are often specific to the fictional world of the novel and may not be recognized by the translation software. Thirdly, the context - dependence of many phrases in light novels. Machine translations might not be able to fully consider the context and thus produce inaccurate translations.
