Root Abyss is 루타비스 in KMS. Put it in Google Translate, you get Bis rue.

Don't translate it. Make GoogleTranslate read it out. I had some trouble with this part when I was doing the translations for Root Abyss when it was out in CMST, but thankfully Max did that part for me.

Exactly! We players don't even know what they are up to when words like "sh*t" , "bastards" etc are censored in player chats.
Terribad translations are just terribad.

Pretty sure there's less censorship in korea so yeah, just really bad translations. Probably used google.

actually ᄅ is more commonly pronounced as an L if its in front. so it will be Lu-ta-bi-seu. 스 is used as place holder for S, so if msea follows romaninzation standards, it will end up as Lutabis.
They should just copy paste from gMS gdi.

"Nest of Shinsoo" => "Nest of Holy Water" (Literal much?)
"Ludibrium" => Rudibrium
"Ereve" => Ereb (only in this patch, was correct everywhere else in the game.)
Also, Magnus' tyrant equipment got translated to "Tylent" and Mystic Gates as "Mistic Gates" in a quest introduced in this patch as well.
Conclusion: Asiasoft will most likely translate Root Abyss as "Loot Abiss"

From the Image,
"Nest of Shinsoo" => "Nest of Holy Water" (Literal much?)
"Ludibrium" => Rudibrium
"Ereve" => Ereb (only in this patch, was correct everywhere else in the game.)

Rudibrium appeared in one of Xenon's or the Cygnus Knights' quests too. Not sure which but probably the former.
Also, It has always been Ereb in MSEA(Episode 2) it was later changed to Erev and now, for whatever reason, Ereve.

"Quite some time later" --> After GMS gets the content, and Asiasoft will copy their translations.

If it makes you feel better, some of these things are in EMS too. Mainly the romanisation issues though, We also have Tylent stuff and the categories of the available quests are just completely horrible.

If they're having problems they could, you know, outsource? I'm sure some of the forumites would be more than willing to help.
I know I would.
I've spotted a few lines I could make much better, by taking a few liberties with it.

I volunteered to be a GM long ago, for free. They said they weren't hiring at that point of time.
