    Who van tell me what they’re saying?

    Sounds a bit like there’s an insult in there. “Where’s the wanker hiding” or “he’s jacking off around here somewhere” or something of that nature, idk?

            Thought as much, seemed very prescriptive of a translation and sometimes when the language are that far apart, you need contextual interpretation.

            Like back in 2016 I had a Huawei P30 pro which had a live translator already back then. All I had to do was mimic some Russian/Chinese sounding sounds, and it’d make them into a somewhat reasonable sentence. Or like at least words, if not a sentence. Now they’re much better, but still, they lack context for idioms and whatnot.

            Like the translator back then was so desperate it was kind of hilarious, but sharing me mumbling something vaguely Chinese / Russian would ve sounded pretty racist so I didn’t film it to post it or anything. I understand pretty much nothing of either language, but the general sound, and maybe like a “thank you” “i love you” or smth. Anyway… Yeah.

            Thanks.
