	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	Great job, Casper! I just wonder if since it's a translation to be understood by the target language reader, that "Monkey" at the end shouldn't be "Macaco". Or we could place the translation of the word in brackets after it. What do you think? PS: I'm posting in English so that Pluie is able to give his opinion too

	casper tavernello จำนวนข้อความ: 5057	Ok and thanks, Lili. I'll wait for Pluiepoco's answer and, until then, maybe we can work out w a little doubt I have about the word West. Would it actually be "Ocidente" instead of "oeste" (even though my guess is that it would be stated as "towards west/westwards" )?

	pluiepoco จำนวนข้อความ: 1263	monkey is ok, since I find francky has made his French version into monkey, I think he is very careful in such consideration. But I wonder if there is really that old version of that novel named really "monkey". If that is real, then it is great for this change.

	pluiepoco จำนวนข้อความ: 1263	West and Occident is not so different. Even if there is cultural and political difference, the Chinese counterpart is also ambiguous. So leave it that way.
