    Figures of speech are Universal.

    Like when you go to a Japanese website and find the word Jonh in the middle of a text with Japanese characters.

    Let´s pretend the other characters were japanese for the sake of this example.

    Actually, figures of speech are not universal. They don't all translate perfectly. I challenge you to find direct translations of most idioms, for instance, that make sense.

    The game was originally in Japanese, and was translated into English. It wasn't just a direct word-for-word translation, but a translation meant to give the meaning behind each line, as it would be in English.

    So, sorry, MJN, but I am stating otherwise.

    That´s it Unknowns.
    When English words cannot be translated (or it is a name of an universal sold thing) they appear on they English form.

    Actually it would go like this:

    It sold recorded 968 ten thousand in the entire world as the "FINAL FANTASY VII"game software. That complete continuation, "FINAL FANTASY VII ADVENT CHILDREN" becoming image work, September 14th (the water) sale decision!

    Maybe the word Winhill appears in English being a name.
    It is a composition of the words win +hill so maybe the word Sam being a name appears as an English word on a Japanese script.
    There is no real reason to believe the common words weren´t translated literally just because they appear on a speech figure.

    For instance Winhill could appear as Japanese with the words win+hill glued and Deling as an English name.
    Flo:Honey,the clock is late.Go out fix it.
    Mayor Dobe:What hours is it?
    Flo: 15:30
    Mayor Dobe:Hey do you wanna to send the Estharians to Centra or what?
    Flo:Ok,let it be on 3:45

    Images removed for being utterly colossal. Please use images that conform to the size limit.
