What does this sentence mean?

貧乏脱出神頼み!

A rough attempt would be: A prayer to God to escape from poverty!

Thanks! :D

Titles

hsjluv93 in japanese Feb 01, 2012 14:26

So I'm watching a drama and I'm figuring out the titles for each episode.
I'm confident with my translations for the first two but the third one gives me a headache.

邪悪な母VSマザコン息子
- Evil Mother vs. Mother-Complex Son (or Mama's Boy)
息子の心が女子!? そのとき母は…
- Son's heart is of a woman!? (comment: or, a woman's(?)) And then, the mother...

This one's bugging me.

せしむる

calimerina66 in japanese Jan 31, 2012 19:28

Hi, i need a little help with an unknown word/verb.
A title from a 1906 newspaper: A fierce contest is going to begin.
And then:

陥落せしむるは Aか Bか

I think a rough translation is: Who is going to fall? A? B?
But, what is exactly せしむる? Some old form of する? How can I translate correctly?
Thanks for your help.

Best Airline to Japan?

jinx_shiren in japanese Jan 26, 2012 03:40

Hello, I'll be studying abroad in Japan this upcoming March, and well, I've never flown before. I apologize, in advance, if this is too off-topic for the community; but I figure, who better to ask, rather than a community of native speakers and those who are also studying the language, such as this one, who many of which have more than likely ( ... )

I've taken a few Japanese classes, however I am nowhere near being able to decipher what this image says. The image has descriptions of the condition of items, and I need help with the translation ( ... )
