WoW Rookie: Essential WoW terminology in other languages

Együtt szaladjunk vissza a temetötöl hogy ne vesszünk el. In the sprawling, global environment that is the World of Warcraft today, there's really no telling who you'll end up grouped with. Even on a white-bread American realm, I've met players whose primary language was not English. Gamers are everywhere now! In the spirit of international cooperation, WoW Rookie has crowdsourced a list of basic WoW terminology for PUGging. The next time you run into a situation where you need to communicate with someone who doesn't speak your language, reach for our translations in the Newbie Guide, linked under Guides in the drop-down menu at the top of the site.
Kudos to the hundreds of readers who responded to our call for translations. Merci, gracias, tack, hvala! Let's crowdsource corrections, too -- if you spot anything incorrect, drop me a line at lisa (at) wow (dot) com. Oh, and "Együtt szaladjunk vissza a temetötöl hogy ne vesszünk el?" That's "Let's run back from the graveyard together so we don't get lost" ... in Hungarian.
Keep in mind that many languages use game terms in their original English or alter them only slightly from their original. There might be a more formal, "correct" way of saying something, but our goal here is to be quickly and easily understood. We've included several translations where we felt that each translation might hold merit. Most languages use English gamespeak for terms such as tank, heal, buff names, AFK and BRB; we've included alternatives when they seemed commonly used.

More phrases I'd like to see:
"Fine, but no mushroom boss."
"Please use cooldowns; you are tanking in blues."
"Are you in Frost Presence?"
"No, I do not want to try for 'Less-Rabi.'"
"Do they hate Halls of Stone in your country?"
"Please do not use Army of the Dead, ever."
"Please don't stand in whirlwind/fire/poison cloud."
"Please stand behind boss to DPS."
"No, that is not a Hunter weapon, it has spellpower on it."
"Please take your pet off of 'aggressive.'"
"Turn off 'Growl.'"
Hasha Mar 18th 2010 5:41PM
A few corrections for german:
Most of the forms you show are correct but plural. In cases where the singular form differs I will add it. However, if you talk to a hardcore RPer who plays a lord or something you can use the plural too (pluralis majestatis, in the past our kings wanted to be adressed in plural).
Can you share quests?
Correction: "Könnt ihr Quests teilen?" would be the correct plural or pluralis majestatis
Singular would be
"Kannst du Quests teilen?"
Please turn off Aspect.
Correction: "Mach bitte den Aspekt aus." (singular)
"Macht bitte den Aspekt aus." (plural)
Follow me. "Folgt mir." is correct for plural but singular would be "Folge mir."
Go. "Los gehts." is ok but "Los geht's." is 100% correct. ("geht's" is an abbreviation of "geht es")
Stop. "Stop." is the old form. Nowadays (for about 10 years) we write "Stopp." with double-p
Let the tank pull. "Lasst den Tank pullen!" is correct, singular would be
"Lass den Tank pullen!"
However, a hardcore-RPer would pretend to not understand english so you would say
"Lass(t) den Brecher ziehen!"
Don't pull aggro. "Zieh keine Aggro." this is singular, plural is
"Zieht keine Aggro."
Wait here. "Warte hier." is singular, "Wartet hier." plural
Let's run back from the graveyard together so we don't get lost.
"Können wir gemeinsam vom Friedhof zurück laufen. Lasst uns vom Friedhof zusammen laufen damit wir uns nicht verlaufen." I would clarify that these are two options so you only need one of those sentences.
Would you like to run another? Nochmal?
"Wollt ihr nochmal eine Instanz machen?" is good but
"Wollt ihr nochmal machen?" isn't, in the case where you want to run another something but not an instance I would say
"Wollt ihr es noch einmal machen?"
blizzardsprules Mar 18th 2010 6:04PM
Yes is Hai, not Ee (Japanese) Also, you've not bolded No on the japanese, so it looks like No lie, not iie,
Also, You may want to Add Nihon go desu ka? means, Japanese? and you can reply: iie, ego desu or Watashi wa Amerika/Igurisu jin desu
Bith Mar 18th 2010 7:16PM
"ee" is an appropriate term for yes but it's not as "quick" sounding as "hai"; it's a little more smooth on the ears and I prefer it in general but I do know when to use which. I felt that with strangers, "ee" felt a little better". I would've suggested "un" and "uun" but many people confuse the two (if they aren't trained speakers).
Marita Mar 18th 2010 7:36PM
also, as "ka" means your sentence is a question, it is not necessary to type the question mark "?"
but, if you feel in the need to type in japanese, then you're using this alphabet, and so need the "?" :P
kenbje92 Mar 18th 2010 6:20PM
The Croatian language is alike in some ways to the Bosnian and Serbian language but a lot of those words are not a like. Just so you know, so people don't really get confused cause really a lot of that stuff isn't right in Bosnian and/or Serbian.
Jędrzej Mar 18th 2010 6:21PM
One more thing in Polish
Let's run back from the graveyard together so we don't get lost. Pobiegnijmy wszyscy do cmentarza żeby się nie pogubić.
there should be
Pobiegnijmy wszyscy z cmentarza instead of "do"
McRaider Mar 18th 2010 6:30PM
i rofled hard on some of the finnish translations. Not that they were wrong, though. The way some them were put just wasn't the purest stuff i've seen.
For example:
Wait here=venaa ts
Thats pretty slangy stuff with a modded 'ventta' from swedish and a greatly shortened 'tss'. It's not wrong and i bet that everyone will understamd what you mean. I'd still recommend using "odota tss".
Akiotena Mar 18th 2010 6:34PM
A few corrections for the Japanese portion -
For goodbye, "sayonara" is formal. You may also see players use "ja" or "ja ne," which is slang--closer to "see you later" than anything else.
The formal version of "yes" is "hai." "Ee" (pronounced "eh") is something you would probably hear in conversation, but not type in chat. You *might* also see "ii" used here, as it is a catch-all for "good." For example, someone asking if the group is ready is "Ii desuka?" and someone might respond "Ii desu" or "Ii." Or, if someone asks "Is that OK?" they may respond with "Ii."
Everything else listed is close enough that a Japanese speaker would at least get what you are trying to say to them, and is functional enough so that English speakers can probably decipher what's being said to them. Perhaps it would also be prudent to add to each language's section "Do you speak English?" (which in Japanese is "Eigo ga hanashimasuka?").
Bith Mar 18th 2010 6:47PM
So excited to see my Japanese translations up there! My Japanese TA briefly looked at them just now, and she doesn't play video games much but she said that they look correct.
Now I feel like my years of studying has been justified for the moment.
Sergio Mar 18th 2010 6:53PM
Spanish is almost perfect but still missing a few "accent marks" and a couple gramma mistakes in a few words, i know is totally understable for many of us in spanish but just making the point that is not the Perfect, like:
Adios = Adiós
Yo sere el tanque = Yo seré el tanque.
Yo curare = Yo curaré
(BRB = Vuelvo enseguida)
Siganme = Síganme
Vallan = Vayan
Alto | Détente = Alto / Detente
Por donde? = ¿Por dónde? ¿Cuál camino?
Espera | Esperen aqui = Espera | Esperen aquí
Curame = Cúrame
Necesiten items que quieren por cualquier razon = Necesiten ítems que quieren por cualquier razón
Necesito esta quest/mision = Necesito esta quest/misión
Corramos juntos desdel el cementerio para no perdernos. = Corramos juntos desde el cementerio para no perdernos.
¿Les gustaria correr otra instancia? = ¿Les gustaría correr otra instancia/dungeon/mazmorra?
Just my 2 cents =)
Hoggersbud Mar 18th 2010 7:15PM
No Klingon translation????
transrelativity Mar 18th 2010 7:31PM
Is this translation intended for Vent use? If it's supposed to be stuff that we can type in chat, I recommend also providing the translation in the appropriate lettering. Take Japanese, for example. I live in Japan, and I know most of the people around me would have trouble deciphering Romanized Japanese phrases.
Marita Mar 18th 2010 7:39PM
well as far as I can see, this translations are meant to be typed, not speaked.
And if you're going to play in a japanese server, then the letters you have are different so it would be hard to use this sentences :/
transrelativity Mar 18th 2010 7:41PM
Also, for the Japanese portion, "Iranai kedo, hoshii" is not imperative. From my position of admittedly moderate understanding, this would translate to "I don't need it, but I want it." I'm not sure how to correctly translate "Need on anything you want for any reason." Maybe "Hoshii mono ga areba, 'irimasu' o shite." Take this with a grain of salt, though; I live in Japan, but I'm not fluent, and I play WoW on US servers.
Arodiel Mar 18th 2010 8:01PM
That's quite a succinct translation. My experience in Japan tended to be more like 10 lines of Japanese, 1 line of English translation. I was always a bit suspicious of what they weren't telling me. It's probably the extreme politeness making the Japanese longer, but still ;-)
transrelativity Mar 18th 2010 8:09PM
In my experience, there are two extremes. Formal or polite Japanese includes a lot of set phrases and elements of politeness that take a long time to say, so it stands to reason that the English would come out shorter and simpler. However, in plain-spoken Japanese, words are shorter and there are a lot of things that we would say in English that simply get dropped in Japanese. For example, in English every sentence must have a subject and a verb, but in Japanese the subject is frequently implied. The translation I offered above literally means: "Wanted thing exists (if), 'need' do," but in Japanese there's no need to say 'you' when speaking directly to a person. In fact, in some cases it can be considered rude.
transrelativity Mar 18th 2010 8:10PM
Gah... this was supposed to be a reply to Arodiel.
Marcosius Mar 18th 2010 9:09PM
Curiously I didn't manage to find "could you please speak english" anywhere. I'd likely leave a group that refuses to/can't speak english (even if most spoke my native tongue), because communication is key and there rarely is time to alt+tab read through this list.
Not that I don't appreciate the effort to make such a list but.. *shrug'
angel_max68 Mar 19th 2010 9:31AM
My main language is french. The translation is grammaticaly perfect but nobody would use those those words in an ingame chat. If you ever group with a french teacher maybe you could use this translation to understand him but people actualy speak slang french mixted with some transformed english words and english wow terminalogy. I play on US server since I'm from Canada and most other french people I know in game would never use those terminalogy. I guess you could understand frenchies from France on a EU server tho since they put much more effort in speaking clean french.
