    I don't know if I'm alone in this, but I just wish there were more social things rather than keeping it gameplay specific. Imagine if you could ask people how they are today, or where they are from, or what they would like to do? My suggestions...

    Question: How are you? / How is everyone today?
    Answers: I'm good! / I'm tired. / I'm feeling crazy! / I'm alright. / I've had a bad day. / I'm sick. / I've got a headache. / That's a secret!

    Question: Where are you from?
    Answers: Japan / America / Canada / United Kingdom / Germany / France / Australia / New Zealand / Eorzea / That's a secret! / Africa / Europe / North America / Asia / Oceania / South America.

    Question: What do you want to do today?
    Answers: Leves / Instanced Raids / etc.

    I don't know. I find what keeps me in the game tends to be socialising, and I think it's so awesome that you can use the in-game translation tool to talk to people of different languages! But then... we can't talk about much right now. I mean, even when you are at work and are speaking to customers/clients, you still give them the courtesy of asking how they are when you meet them. Just seems polite!

    Yeah, it would be nice to have social-based options as well.

    I agree, please keep adding to this. A lot of BASIC words very much needed for communication are missing. Also fix the problem of words that are in the translation disapearing such as quests. Example you cannot translate all the camps. I think it was fixed a little but I am unable to translate quests I have already beaten, I cannot translate a camp I have not visited for a certain amount of time. If the word/words/location/quest is in the game let it be translatable regardless. Only problem I see is people will see quest names for quests they have not reached but who really cares its not that much of a spoiler... all the quests are just go here, kill x, return to npc anyway LET ME SAY THEM

    Haha perfect idea! Phantasy Star Online and Universe had a feature just like this. You could choose from a regular list or from a list at the bottom that was in response to the last translation said. You could specify it to a certain player or to everybody. SE's dictionary does better job I think, but having the feature to have a preset list of words to use in response of what they ask would be great.

    JPN: <Hello!>
    AMR: <Hello!>
    JPN: <Ifrit> <Do you know the battle?>

    The American player could then respond with a set that would show <I'm an expert at this!>, <I'm still learning the battle.>, or <I'm sorry, I am new at this.> as response instead of having to sift through the entire dictionary to answer it.

    Oh, and I would love it if there were translations for both "Oops..." and "Uh oh." Some comedy options would be great for breaking the ice after the traditional epic fail that I like to think everyone has from time to time. "So, that went well, didn't it?" "That's the last time I play with my feet."

    "Oops!" is actually in-game already... a JP player used it when they died to a random Guardian of the Grove.
