(情報が少しでも出ていればという気持ちは、本当に強いかと思いますけれども、そういう方たちから今回、どのような声が上がっていますか?)
I think its like
Theres not much but if they put it out, Are there feelings really strong...??? I'm really just kinda lost. Maybe a rough translation could make it apparent for me.

There's a usage of ば where it means something like "if only" -- there's a kind of omitted いい or よかった.
"I think that the feelings of 'If only they would put out even a little bit of information' must be very strong, but what kinds of voices will we hear from those people now?"

Could someone explain the usage of をば?
The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - yudantaiteki - 2012-07-11
It shows up in classical Japanese as an emphatic topic marker -- did you see this in modern? Give an example!

My friend wrote this in an email.
失礼をば致しました。／質問をば。
He also uses べし a lot, which I like as it sounds cooler than べき. (that's my guess? べし＝古語のべき）

「それに僕にしたところで何かの折りにふとそう思っただけで、それを深く追求してみようなんてう気はさらさらなかったのだ。」
ノルウェイの森
ｐ．29
The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - Fillanzea - 2012-07-13
Previous sentence for context:
気にするのは僕くらいのものなのだろう。それに僕にしたところで何かの折りにふとそう思っただけで、それを深く追求してみようなんていう気はさらさらなかったのだ。
In the rest of the paragraph, he's talking about how they take the flag down at night even though the country keeps going, and people keep working, during the night, and didn't they need the flag's protection too?
"I was just about the only person who would care about that. And besides, even for me it was just something that occurred to me by some chance, and I didn't have any urge to pursue it more deeply than that."

The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - kachii - 2012-07-14
I was just trying to reply to a message from a Japanese person who was telling me that they are currently living in Paris. I said I'd been to Paris twice before - 8 and 17 years ago, and I want to say that 'I'd like to go again now because I would appreciate it more now that I am older'.
How would one say that? I got as far as....
「もうパリに行きたいですから、今大人になりました...」
and not sure how to finish it off (or even if 'ima otona ni narimashita' is the most natural way to say 'now that I am older'
)Thanks for your help.
The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - yudantaiteki - 2012-07-14
First off, the reason always goes before the result with から. What you've got now is "Because I already want to go to Paris, I have now become an adult..."
I'm not entirely sure what the best way is; this use of "appreciate" is highly idiomatic and the dictionaries I usually use aren't helping me get the exact meaning here. I would possibly say something like もう一度パリに行きたいと思います。多分大人になってから印象が違うんでしょう。 This isn't an exact translation but I think it gets the basic idea across. I'm not a native speaker so I can't promise this is natural-sounding.
The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - JimmySeal - 2012-07-14
I think kachii could also say something like:
いまはもう大人だから、パリのよさを前よりよく理解できると思います。

Some lines from Detective Conan:
「おそらく 内密の話があるとでも言って」
「内側から鍵をかけて待つよう」
「犯人が指示したんでしょう」
I don't quite understand 「とでも言って」 and 「待つよう」

From comparing the J-E subtitles of a drama:
なんとかならない事もないんだしさ。
I'm sure there must be something you can do.
Can anybody break the Japanese sentence down and explain it?
The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - Tori-kun - 2012-07-15
@kudokupo: I like Detective Conan
Which episode was it?Ok, if you omitt the でも, do you understand the sentence?
よう＝みたい？
@turvy: Do you know the phrase 何とかなるさ。 ? This might help understanding how to parse the sentence.
The "What's this word/phrase?" thread - turvy - 2012-07-15
I know 何とかなる means "to be able to manage" but that is not helping me parsing the sentence at the moment. Can you help?

first anime I really fell in love with, which made me discover fansubs when the dub was canceled...which is probably a huge reason I'm here now. lolAh, I found the と言って expression, and had a feeling it was something like that. And not sure why I was confused about よう but I get it now.
