m: pizzicato five's ugo-ugo lhuga
r: hello mademoiselle
m: hello
r: how do you do
m: how do you do
r: i'm fine thank you
so... what if we tried to
pretend this is a french class
and translated all the songs
titles to french?
m: let's do it!
r: ok so... the first song is
the night is still young
(seven pm in tokyo)
m: you got it
r: so in french you should say...
il est sept heures de nuit
a tokyo
m: il est sept heures... euh..
a tokyo...
r: sept heures de nuit
m: sept heures euh..
nuit
r: that's it! de nuit means
night in english
m: mmm
r: sept heures de nuit
a tokyo
m: it means yoru in japanese,
right?
r: precisely!
repeat after me...
il est sept heures de nuit
a tokyo
m: il est sept heures euh...
nuit a tokyo
r: exactly!
very good mademoiselle
wonderful!
okay so...
the second song's
title is...
love love show
m: love love show
r: love love show
*some* title we've got here
m: so how do you say this in
english i mean
japanese i mean
how do you say this in french?
r: this is
amour amour mon amour
m: amour amour mon amour
r: that's it!
and a good translation it is
now let's try to give it
some feeling
mon amour
m: mon amour
r: that's it.
try to think of
a godard film
mon amour mademoiselle
mon amour
m: mon amour
r: that's it very good!
ok now
the third song
is called shiritori
m: yes...
r: the french don't have
an equivalent to
our shiritori
so we'll have to stick to
the japanese word
shi-ri-to-ri
m: shi-ri-to-ri
r: yeah...
all you have to do is
say ri with a french accent
and it sounds
like french...
that's what's good about
french
shiritori
m: shiritori
r: for instance let's try to
apply the rule
say yakitori
m: yakitori
r: that's it
if you pronounce
yakitori that way
it sounds like
you're a french chick
eating
yakitori
ok so
what's the next song?
m: the next song
is called
do re mi
r: do re mi
so dore mi it is
ok so
shall we try to
pronounce this
with a french flair
to it?
m: ok
r: for instance do goes du
m: du
r: du re mi
m: du re mi
r: for example you
might try to
sing it
do re mi
m: du re mi
r: du re mi
m: du re mi
r: du re mi
m: do re mi
r: that's it
ok so
the fourth
what's the fourth
song?
it is...
m: the next song is... mmm...
me japanese boy
r: me japanese boy
yes it's
me japanese boy
this in french
would be something like
moi garcon japonais
m: moi garcon japonais
r: that's it!
in french
there's a special way women talk
in french
women go like
really cute
moi
m: moi
r: exactly!
the mouth a little up
wa! wa!
m: moi
r: you got it!
moi garcon...
m: moi garcon...
r: there you go!
garcon like in
comme des garcons
moi garcon japonais
m: moi garcon japonais
r: mademoiselle!
that was tres bien
such a good student
m: thank you very much
r: i mean it!
ok let's see the last song
the last song
what's it called?
m: let's be adult
r: classy title!
and in french you say
sois sage (behave, act your age)
m: sois sage
r: sois sage
m: sois sage
r: soyez sage
m: sois sage
r: soyez, soyez
soyez sage
let's be adult
sois sage
let's be adult
this is
a french imperative
get adult
become an adult
that's the meaning
m: i see
r: mademoiselle nomiya
are you an adult?
m: i suppose i am
r: yeah me too
so what do you think
about later...
