    [English->Japanese] for "Source"

    Hey everyone! This is a bit of a spiritual term request. I'm searching for a word for Source in Japanese. I've searched around and most of what I get are Christian or Shinto religious terms.

    Here's a quick definition that may or may not help: "It is a field of energy (light) that runs through everything like a life force. Source can be considered as a continuous, infinite ocean of energy that includes everything that exists, and ever is and ever was. Because everything is Source and Source is everything, it knows everything about itself."

    [Greek>English] Help needed please.

    My son has designed me a tattoo that I’m going to have done in January. It’s a Greek D&D arrow. Underneath he’s written στείλε τους όλους στον Άδη which should translate as send them to Hades. Is that formatting correct as in is that grammatically correct and as a Greek person would say it? TIA.

    [English > Japanese]

    Hello!

    I am designing a JDM inspired sticker for my vehicle with my business's name. I was looking to know what

    "Dream Lab" and what "Automotive" would be. For Automotive I would prefer if it is the actual word automotive, and not "car". I have seen what Google Translate has it as (attached files), but I wanted to make sure I'm not looking silly with these since they will be on a vehicle for public viewing.

    Thank you so much!

    Dream Lab(?)

    Automotive(?)

    [English > Spanish] Clothing store/size translations

    I volunteer at a DV/SA organization’s closet for survivors and would like to redo the signage to include Spanish translations as well, but unfortunately I know very little Spanish.

    My first question is are there equivalents to the usual size abbreviations? This would include XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL, 1X, 2X, and 3X+. Along those same lines, do women’s pants sizes need a separate translation or are the typical American sizes (0, 2, 4, etc) easy enough to navigate?

    Here’s a list of things I am looking to have translated: Men’s shirts/pants/underwear/socks/shoes. Women’s shirts/pants/underwear/bras/socks/shoes. Boy’s/girl’s for the aforementioned sections. Shorts, pajamas, scrubs, swimsuits, yoga pants/sweatpants, children’s coats, adult coats, jackets/cardigans, sweaters/hoodies, long/short dresses/skirts, infant/premie, onesies, months, outfits, plus size, new to (closet name here), shampoo & conditioner, lotion, blankets, hats & gloves, hanger return, item return, donations, bags.

    I think that’s about everything and greatly appreciate any help with this project!

    [Japanese > English]

    例えば クラピカが レべル10の具現化系能力者 だとした場合

    変化系能力はルズル8まで 採作・強化系能力はレベル6まで 放出系能力にいたっては レベル4までの能力しか 覚えられないと いうことである

    しかも 覚えた能力であつても 自分の系続と違う能力の場合 威力・精度が修得率と同じ 割合で減少する

    The last sentence is what I would like a translation for, mainly if 修得率 translates as “acquisition rate”, or if the previous sentences change the meaning to “mastery level”. Is that possible in Japanese?

    Thanks for any assistance.
