    auto translator needs improvement.

    I personally find that the auto translator in ffxi had alot more in it than the one we have in ffxiv. We need an expansion to the auto translate dictionary. Below are some of the words and phrases i would like to see added. List some of yours!


    sry if any of these we already ingame game, I'm working off my memory right now as I am not currently able to access the game from my current location to double check these suggestions.

    Words I want added:

    Job
    Fun
    Boring
    Work
    Wife
    Head
    Chest
    Hand(s)
    Legs
    Feet

    can we please add tab translations for crafting ingredients?
    I often want to talk about getting an item with my Japanese linkshell but I have to guess on what the name in Japanese might be
    Sometimes its easy like fleece is フリース but for example things like "flax" I had no idea how to explain to my LS leader :/

    It's too bad you can't search for specific words.

    thehehe. I avoid this problem by playing the client in the 'common language' of the server

    but I guess it can become a little tricky if you're a member of several language linkshells. I have caused quite some funny conversations before in my german speaking linkshell on balmung (NA server so naturally my client is english :P)

    it's not just the lack of words, though

    the german word 'bitte' for example means both 'thank you' and 'please', which always makes me go head-against-wall ^-^
    (though ffxi had that 'problem' too :P)

    Welcome to using the SE auto translator. People have been making complaints and suggestions for it since Final Fantasy XI came out more than 10 years ago. And SE has ignored every single one. I would not get my hopes up for any changes or improvements, because SE, frankly, has shown that they can't be bothered to care.
