Re:Games with Famous Bad Translations into Japanese by amyjess on Monday November 11, 2019 @10:23AM (#21505527)
Personally, when I'm checking a translation, I like to use WWWJDIC's text glossing mode: https://www.edrdg.org/cgi-bin/wwwjdic/wwwjdic?9T

The thing with my Japanese skills is that my grammar is excellent, but my vocabulary is limited, so a gloss of the kanji in a sentence is _massively_ useful to me (and kanji is a double-edged sword: I recognize far more words in hiragana (or when spoken) than in kanji, but kanji is pretty much necessary for a dictionary to have any decent idea of what the word is).

I'll have to give Jisho a try though.
