Talk:Parasitic Tentacle

I thought that since the page for the Wind Waker 寄生触手 uses *Parasitic Tenticle* as a translation, just like this page does currently, that I'd request to change the translation of 寄生虫の触手 on this page here, from Parasite Tenticle to *Parasitic Tenticle Worm*. The reason being is because the difference in name between the Wind Waker name and the name on this page here would be the Kanji *虫/Chu*, which translates to either Worm, Moth, Insect, and/or Bug. Plus, it would distinguish something unique from both pages, translation wise, giving them something slightly different from eachother IMO. --Vaati The Wind Demon 03:46, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * You are genrally right, although the correct translation would be "Parasitc Intestinal Worm's Tentacle" or "Tentacle of the Parasitc Intestinal Worm", with the latter being more appropiate as it doesn't sound so stupid in English. We know it is a tentacle of Barinade and Barinade(電撃旋回虫 バリネー) itself is referred to as an intestinal worm(回虫) in Japanese. This translation is applied with a little hindsight tho', since the player would generally not know that until meeting Barinade itself later. The current translation isn't necessarily wrong, it is just not 100% accurate so I'm in favor of this change. Bakeneko 06:36, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * That's accurate, sometimes to get an accurate translation, I type the Japanese Words in Google Image and that usually helps with a translation as it gives the viewer what the Japanese use the words for in Image Forms, as well as dictionaries and encyclopedia definitions. So all in favor of *Parasitc Intestinal Tenticle Worm*.  --Vaati The Wind Demon 13:26, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure where "intestinal" is coming from, in this instance. It's just not in the name. We shouldn't add it just because it's used in a related enemy's name. Adding worm is fine. I think "Parasitic Worm Tentacle" will do. 14:48, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It's coming from Barinades name. 回虫 like I already mentioned, so that's where intestinal would come from. We don't have to add the "intestinal" tho' as the context of what Barinade is and where you fight it already kinda makes that clear. Still, isn't "Parasitic Worm's Tentacle" correct in English, as it would assign that the tentacle is a part of Barinade? Doesn't "Parasitic Worm Tentacle" mean that it is a an independent being, meaning it is a creature called "Worm Tentacle"? Wouldn't make sense. If we are unsure if this tentacle belongs to Barinade then we shouldn't add Worm at all in my opinion, because like Vaati already mentioned 虫 can mean anything(worm, insect, bug).

 * If I remember correctly, that isn't the only tenticle inside Lord Jabu Jabu's innards, I think there is about two or three in total maybe. Anyways, I choose worm because that was the closest thing I could translate to it's ressemblance.  I could have choosen catarpillar, but they apparently aren't the kind of bugs you would find eating flesh and/or tearing through innards.   I hope it's alright!  --Vaati The Wind Demon 21:54, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
