的な能力[edit source]

This phrase is currently translated as '(something)-like ability', but I'm wondering if there's a more natural way to translate it. I was having a bit of a think about it, and I came up with 'something like (ability).' So in the case of Yabusame, 'Crossing dimensions-like ability' would become 'something like crossing dimensions.' The only thing we lose then is the word 'ability,' but I think it flows better than the current translation. Does anyone else have any thoughts/creative suggestions?

That sounds great, in my opinion! :) If one wanted to keep the word "ability" in there, I think "something like the ability to ____" would work okay? But I'd say truncating it like that is just fine, since "Ability:" is in the profile template either way. Gilde (talk) 21:38, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
Awesome! Glad to hear someone else feels the same way. I'll see if I can scope out some more opinions, too, but I'm happy to go through and make some changes once a consensus is reached :) Releska (talk) 08:33, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
