Arabs and Japanese Toilets

[evilrobottolhurst]

I now know some Arabic - "flush" and "we make studies" (3:50) lol

[wisemanleo]

@evilrobottolhurst Indeed, my favourite part was when he was intrigued by the fact that someone would...study...the time one needs to make the flushing sound to cover undesired noise factors.

[wisemanleo]

@evilrobottolhurst For 1 month we make studies!!!

[MrFFSMAN]

* clicks like*

[wisemanleo]

@MrFFSMAN If only everyone else understood that this was meant to be a fake sub!

[BASEM434]

I'm an arabic .so why the translitation contain some wprds that he didn't say?!!!!l

such as butt or ass or ...etc

please translate the real translation for non-arab people

[wisemanleo]

@BASEM434 I'd be happy to accept your retranslation...can you send me a message with the proper phrases? I

[kingofbad1]

I haven't seen any thing much more stupid and time wasting than this, he is amazed from a simple toilet and forgot that Arabs are the founders and inventors of many sciences and technologies. really a shallow person.

[wisemanleo]

@kingofbad1 yet in arabia we don't have toilets with buttons!

[wisemanleo]

@Islam4way Sorry =(. I'm open to corrections, so send me a msg!

[LittleRoaringBagpipe]

This was freakin' awesome!!!! :D The people from Japan are just so thoughtful.... :)

[wisemanleo]

@LittleRoaringBagpipe Tell me about it! Now the question is...in a good or bad way?

[saxquiz]

I can't wait for the new season. We'll see which Arab country is the best I guess lol.

[wisemanleo]

@saxquiz It's supposed to be about the eastern muslim countries I heard?

[sBa7ar]

Thnx for sharing this epi. Abu. =) ..... i really love this show...it's displayed on mbc channel every Ramadan ...and last ramadan it was about Japan,it showed the aspect of their life and how they're concern in tiny details just to make the one's life easier..this was one of 30 episodes..really great show

u should watch it also this Ramadan

[wisemanleo]

@sBa7ar that's amazing! how about this ramadan, what are they showing?

[sBa7ar]

@wisemanleo umm...what i understood from the Tv ad. that they're gonna compare this time between muslim countries such as Malaysia, the accomplishments they did ,and the Arab countries

i think it's gonna be interesting, just knowing about the way they live in these countries

Can't wait to see what this show brings this Ramadan

[wisemanleo]

@sBa7ar i see a lot of malaysian/indonesian muslims here in japan, it's interesting to see all the varieties of hijabs lol

[sBa7ar]

@wisemanleo lool...yea i guess :D

[gpcgovly]

the translation is not accurate , and this is a part of 30 episodes show that shows the aspects of life in japan , they didn't come to see how Japanese take shit , he is just being funny . by the way , the man didn't say this terms "butt , poop " its considered impolite to say so in the Arab culture .

[wisemanleo]

@gpcgovly Thanks for the info. I didn't intend for accurate translation, mind you I did it in a quick 5min session. I didn't think the humor would've carried over as well if I went word-for-word translations.

As for butt, isn't it okay to say "teezak"? It's the polite, or cutesy way of saying ass, after all. It can be said on TV.

[mochamist21]

Why isn't the toilet button in America? Or maybe not in my location. (LOL)

[wisemanleo]

@mochamist21 I would be surprised if these are found in the States!!

[meow23]

i dont know what is more funny the way the guy talks or the toilet button haahahahaha

[wisemanleo]

@meow23 I know! That's what I loved most about this episode! Arab humor is just too awesome.

[Razorblade62]

That's what happens if you make a monkey do the translations.... they are really off, and even insulting

[wisemanleo]

@Razorblade62 My bad...I should've spent more time translating.

[Razorblade62]

@wisemanleo Sorry for calling you monkey...

[wisemanleo]

@Razorblade62 I'm used to it, I coincidentally share my nickname with the monkey from Aladdin.

[Islam4way]

@wisemanleo nice but why wrong traslation
