The previous part, which itself links to parts 1-6, has some discussions and glosses of other anime that might help you. The plot descriptions in these quizzes are based on those from Anilist, so you can use that site for reference. You can also use things like title structure, character names, and occasional numerals to help you figure things out, or you can ask me for hints like the meanings of individual words, and I may or may not provide. I’ll also be providing a few hints off the bat.

It’s maybe a little weird to provide a CW for text in a language no-one else speaks, but I figured it was better to overapply CW’s than underapply them.

When you make a guess, please spoiler your answer. If you’re right, I will reply with the Evangelion congratulations emoji and provide glosses. And remember that just because someone else solved a title first doesn’t mean you can’t have a go for yourself.

Also, I can’t guarantee that every translation here is perfect, because despite inventing this language, it is still not my first language.

Edit: Meltyheartlove pulled a hat trick today, being the first to solve all three titles. But since all the answers are spoilered, you can still make your own guesses!

Some hints not specific to any title

Deciphering character names

The lengths of names may be of use but don’t expect them to perfectly match their lengths in Hepburn/English. Likewise initials might not always match the Hepburn.

Names are inflected with a masculine suffix -a and a feminine suffix -e, but to prevent hiatus these go through the following sound changes:

① a(ː).V → VːV = any vowel — as in *Sakura-e → Sakuré

② O(ː).V → ø(ː)O = round vowel — as in *Tomoyo-e → Tomoyǒ, or *Kló-a → Klő

③ E(ː).V → jV(ː)E = unrounded front vowel — as in *Miyuki-a → Miyukya

The sound change for front vowels may trigger further sound changes:

Tj → TTT = alveolar consonant — but note that alveolar geminates are realized as palatals.

ji(ː) → iː

In that order.

Also note that proper nouns occasionally do not refer to characters, in which case the gender that the name is inflected as may not be of much use to you.

Other revelations about the grammar and word derivation

It has by this point been cracked or revealed that…

  1. -t́ forms verbs, -ćk forms active participles, and -j́esk forms passive participles.
  2. -v is a suffix used to form the construct state. This means that the following word modifies or possesses the previous.

    ONE PIECE

    Gold Roger was known as the Pirate King, the strongest and most infamous being to have sailed the Grand Line. The capture and death of Roger by the World Government brought a change throughout the world. His last words before his death revealed the location of the greatest treasure in the world, One Piece. It was this revelation that brought about the Grand Age of Pirates, men who dreamed of finding One Piece (which promises an unlimited amount of riches and fame), and quite possibly the most coveted of titles for the person who found it, the title of the Pirate King.

    Enter Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year-old boy that defies your standard definition of a pirate. Rather than the popular persona of a wicked, hardened, toothless pirate who ransacks villages for fun, Luffy’s reason for being a pirate is one of pure wonder; the thought of an exciting adventure and meeting new and intriguing people, along with finding One Piece, are his reasons of becoming a pirate. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and his crew travel across the Grand Line, experiencing crazy adventures, unveiling dark mysteries and battling strong enemies, all in order to reach One Piece.
