Is google translate enough to get by posting on pixiv? I imagine it wouldn't be but I've talked with japanese people o steam with this thing and they seem to believe I'm one of them.

You mean like in private messages and in comments? I think they'll accept you, but then think you're retarded if you don't say that English is your native language.

Why do you want to pretend to be Japanese?
Pixiv already comes in English. Use that.

>by using Google fucking Translator
They are probably laugh their asses off behind your back and only talk to you as a joke

Just knowing a bit of Japanese and seeing the atrocities google translate makes, I can confirm this
>google translate creates complete gibberish jap->eng
>but surely nipponjin-samas see me as one of them when I use it to translate eng->jap

Just post in English nigga, there are a lot of gaijin artists on pixiv anyways
not OP but i've thinking of pixiv and am also interested in this.
not to blend in but to talk to other artists. how intelligable is english->jap? other tongues?
I know it's a little weird for spanish but pretty reliable generally
learning some basic japanese so I can ask
always gomen for shit grammar
use keywords 基本的な練習, learn from and use their vocab.
Doing this has made me grateful for knowing English. Now I try to talk directly to every decent english speaking artist. Make use of the fact theres no language barrier. They will reply most of the time if they dont then w/e ykno

Write in simple, straight forward English sentences. Most Japanese can read some English. It's been compulsory in elementary school for years. Just keep it brief and polite.
