    I've realized a lot of people need stuff translated. I'm not the best speaker of Japanese, but I do it pretty well, and I have a decent grip on writing. Though its a bit shaky, I'd be glad to help anyone who needs something translated! Practice makes perfect! And I'm sure there are ither Otaku here that can help! ^_^ So ask away...

    Ookami is wolf. If you mean a lone wolf or a loner, that'd be ippikiookami. ^_^ Hope it helps.

    Tenshi actually dosen't mean "angel". It's teh name of an angel that was adapted into modern Japanese. Kind of like Tenchu.

    It's like, you know how we say "Get me a Kleenex?" But Kleenex dosent mean tissue.... except not really like that. Oy.

    Just some points...
    you say, "shinda" and "shinde."
    However, this is mostly the pronoun of how a japanese would say these. To seperate it, it should be like this: "shinu da" and "shinu de."
    de and da are particles, and the word "to die" is shinu. Although, it's mostly pronounced as "shin."

    tenshi is angel, from what i know. I can agree on that.
    Tenchi means "heaven and earth" or alike.
