- Hey, everybody, let me see if I got this
up and running so I could show you
what I want to show you.
Yeah, so essentially, I am gonna be playing some DOOM.
In preparation for that,
you guys can see what I have here is a vocab list
of things that I should know.
I had someone help me prepare this,
and they must have been thinking
that they had the weirdest job in the world
because they had to look up demonic vocabulary,
and words like prowler and baron of hell.
(laughs)
It's weird what some people do for,
during their day job,
but I had someone help me with this.
So I wanna make sure that I know some of these words,
'cause these'll be relevant
to what I'm about to do, which is play this game.
But if you wanna prepare something like this yourself,
let me show you how I did this.
So, in this case, what I did was I looked at the monsters,
so you got, like, plots and so on,
which I guess'll help you a little bit.
But these are the monsters which we started to search for.
These are the weapons.
So anything, you can imagine how you would do this
in so many different aspects of life.
But you try to find these key vocabulary things,
and you would either look 'em up one by one in a dictionary,
but if you happen to have a multilingual option,
yeah, this looks a lot better.
So, this is the Wikipedia page for DOOM.
And this has a cool trick that you guys should probably know
by now, but I'll show it to you anyway.
As you're reading the page,
you have all of these language things here on the left.
So I'm gonna be playing it in Spanish, so what I should do,
Spanish first, what I should do, oops,
let me invert the page here, there we go,
what I should do is read up about the game,
first in the language I'm most familiar with,
in my case, English, and then in the language I'm gonna try
and play it in, which is gonna be Spanish first.
And so I can read about the development
and the game itself, and any other details,
and like I'll see links, that could potentially discuss it
more in Spanish, because that's what you want,
you don't want more English.
Even if the Wikipedia page is bare,
because this one doesn't mention anything
about the monsters and stuff.
But that's fine, because I have all of these
other versions here.
And on top of that, in terms of games,
there's a lot of walkthroughs
that you can find on the Steam Site.
So a collection of this, I had someone help me
go through all of that and they essentially came up
with this list for me here.
Okay, weapons.
So burst rifle is fucil rafalla.
Okay, rafalla.
That's a word I haven't come across yet,
so that's a good one to be aware of.
Chainsaw, I know from the original game
that I would have played.
Motosierra, so I knew that sierra was a saw
but I wouldn't have known how to say chainsaw, so chainsaw,
when you run out of weapons, you can just be like
to kill these guys so it's kinda like a motor saw,
is how you say it in Spanish, very interesting.
Motosierra.
Okay, you can even use you punos,
grenada, nice and easy there.
Okay, heavy_rescue says, "I like the idea
"of the spreadsheet, I've tried playing games in Spanish
"before and found some of the vocab hard to follow
"because it's so different from everyday use."
Yeah, and it depends on what you wanna do with the language,
I wanna play games to relax in the weekends
so this is something that I want to just get into.
If I didn't enjoy playing games, then I probably
would not have gone to all this trouble.
Or if I didn't enjoy the idea of doing it
in a different language.
But I really think we should try to use our languages
as much as possible, so if I know I'm gonna be relaxing
by playing a video game, then is it really
that big a deal to switch the language?
So yeah, thanks for joining this one,
I'll be back in just a couple of minutes
with the stream in Spanish.
