"Anyways" yikes

Are you referring to an earlier chapter?

DONT READI T THEN HOW'BOUT THAT

Nemu says it: vol 6 chapter 3 page 20
Maya says it: vol 7, chapter 1, page 9

Maya saying it is not a stretch. He apparently speaks very informally and roughly in the original Japanese.

As for the other, shit happens, man. Anyways doesn't trip spell checkers and it's commonly used in speech, so it doesn't always trip up the proofreaders.

If something that small trips your suspension of disbelief, I wonder how you can enjoy any manga. ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Amazing. There are Manga where scanlators dont give a damn and don't even translate the small texts next to bubbles or soundeffects and so on and this group serves you high quality manga scanlation and you flip over a "anyways". Wow. LMAO

People like you should be forbidden to read manga, seriously.
Get a life.

how bout if you shut the fuck up

"anyways" is incorrect. You can't just slop an S onto any word you like. It's an adverb.
With very few exceptions, adverbs can't be plural. Maya is in college. He would hopefully have lost such ugly speech with his education.

You should be forbidden to use cliche's like "get a life" Why are you so bothered by me being bothered by something that bothers a big portion of the population - those who like the English language?

Nevertheless, English speakers have been using both “anyway” and “anyways” since the 16th century, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. In fact, the first OED citation for “anyways” (circa 1560) is slightly older than the first cite for “anyway” (1570). ( http://www.grammarphobia.com/blog/2009/08/anyways-said-the-damsel.html)

But yes, please, tell me how that's not a real word.

ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~

Anyways' is now considered a nonstandard, informal version of 'anyway' but it is not incorrect. It is also not uncommon to end an adverb with an 's' in old English, and a few we still retain to this day: always nowadays, towards, besides...

you sound like a complete moron telling people the "shut the fuck up" how old are you any, so damn immature. if you find the scans so hard to read please go buy the Japanese version and translate it yourself. stop being so nit picky.you're reading the story illegally for free so just sit down and enjoy the damn story

In the name of our group (NijiNiji Nikubou Scans) let me tell you how happy we are that the only flaw you found was that "anyways".
Sorry to hear you're that upset about it though.
Anyways, I hope you still enjoyed the rest of our scanlation(s). :)

Are you kidding? I love your stuff. You guys translated most of "Hang Out Crisis," a favorite of mine. A while back I emailed you with my credentials, offering to help with the rest of it. I didn't hear back, but that's okay. I probably wasn't going through the proper channels.

I see your name on lots of manga. I'm grateful and appreciative - affectionate even. ha. It's just that my eye catches every grammar error, so seeing the same one again and again really grates on my sensitive inner ears. By the way, it's unimaginably nice to see a scanlation group person respond to a post, even if you weren't exactly happy with the comment that provoked it.

There's lots of reasons not to keep "anyways" in your vocabulary. "Anyways" makes the person who says it sound less intelligent - this isn't just me saying what I think. There's a consensus among grammarians. Even the ones who are willing to defend the use of "anyways" agree that it shouldn't be used on resumes, reports, in essays, manuscripts, in the company of your college professor, or anywhere you don't want to chance losing out because of one word making you seem under-educated. Man, I really hope I didn't make any grammar errors here. THX

The purpose of a dictionary is not to validate, it's to inform. You need to research more than just dictionaries, but look, I'm glad to see someone with the integrity to actually do some research instead of just telling me to stop reading manga. I can argue this "anyways" topic with you all day, literally, but the material point is this: Given that "anyways" is going to offend at least five percent of the population, why work so hard to defend it? Why does someone like you who writes English well above the average person want to defend a dowdy, sloppy old word like "anyways?" With "anyway" you're safely exempt from people calling you an ignoramus (inside their heads). LOL

My other thought is why is someone using "bitch" in their name worried about me griping about "anyways," which BOTHERS THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF ME! Because I have a terrible personality, "bitch" doesn't bother me at all, but it's sure as hell going to bother a lot more people than my "anyways" rant.

I think what's tripping you up is "non-standard" and "informal." Formal English is what we're using right now, and what is used in all forms of communication like books etc., so what do you suppose informal English is? Get the picture?" "Non-standard English" is what you never want to be caught speaking, because non-standard, in grammar terms, is the polite way of saying BAD.

all right, all right. Your comment hit me the wrong way. sorry. too harsh. got it.

At my age, being called immature is a compliment. LOL

It ain't easy, ya know?

I'm glad to hear that you like our work in general :)
(the rest of Hang out crisis is still in the making by the way hehe)

About your email, my email program like to put non spam mails in the spam folder and I probably didn't check properly, my bad. I'm sorry about that! (｡-_-｡)

It is how it is now, Nemu says "anyways" this one time (Maya doesn't count because he just talks like that ^^), we are always thankful for constructive criticism and we get your point :)
It's just always a question of how to bring that across ^^
Hiccups might happen again in the future, since we're not perfect and sometimes (excuse my language please) shit happens ^^
But thank you for being open and feel free to message our tumblr or facebook (no spam folders ^^) if you catch something again because, like I said, constructive criticism is always very welcome :)

Formal and informal language
from English Grammar Today
We use formal language in situations that are serious or that involve people we don’t know well. Informal language is more commonly used in situations that are more relaxed and involve people we know well.

Formal language is more common when we write; informal language is more common when we speak. However, there are times where writing can be very informal, for example, when writing postcards or letters to friends, emails or text messages. There are also examples where spoken English can be very formal, for example, in a speech or a lecture. Most uses of English are neutral; that is, they are neither formal nor informal.

Formal language and informal language are associated with particular choices of grammar and vocabulary.

Contractions, relative clauses without a relative pronoun and ellipsis are more common in informal language.

Compare
She has decided to accept the job.
formal
She’s decided to accept the job.
informal: She’s = contraction
I couldn't help here.


Example 1: This is to inform you that your book has been rejected by our publishing company as it was not up to the required standard. In case you would like us to reconsider it, we would suggest that you go over it and make some necessary changes.

Example 2: You know that book I wrote? Well, the publishing company rejected it. They thought it was awful. But hey, I did the best I could, and I think it was great. I’m not gonna redo it the way they said I should.


Informal: May use colloquial words/expressions (kids, guy, awesome, a lot, etc.).
Formal: Avoid using colloquial words/expressions (substitute with children, man/boy, wonderful, many, etc.)

Informal: May use contractions (can’t, won’t, shouldn’t, etc.).
Formal: Avoid contractions (write out full words – cannot, will not, should not, etc.).

So no mam what we are using here is quite informal. I hope you got the gist of it I am not native speaker but I am Learning English. Just like other person said anyways is used as informal language. And you are using informal language your self. Most of the young generation use informal language. And the people that scans and translate are not some English professor or anything. And nemugasa is Japanese himself. So he can use informal language even if he is smart and intelligent there are many smart and intelligent people that use informal language.. So if anyways bother you as it is bad and informal you're or we're doesn't bother you. You said your self to nijinji you love their work and they are talking really politely which I am grateful . And I guess the one 2 le bitch to is also part of the group. They work so hard for they don't get any money for this. So. It really bothers sometimes when you have worked you assume off and all you can think of is mistake. Yes it is not a word but it's not the only time that people have used it. There are so many people that use it. So most of the people don't mind it. A

what the hell? I'm not reading all this! I've already been to school, and I'm way too busy with my real work to wade through all this. So far, from the first couple of paragraphs, it's what I already told you. This stuff looks like it's from a school workbook. I can quote you from books that are a lot better than this -- whatever wherever it's from. You know, you're kind of annoying. Why don't you talk to me in a real identity instead of hiding behind "Anonymous." I usually like the people I talk with here, even if we argue, but you . . . .
