Can anyone read Chinese? Translation from dinosaur paper needed!
Paleoworld-101 posted a topic in Questions & Answers
I know this is a bit unusual but i am not sure who i can ask about this. I am currently researching dinosaur skin and am trying to read more about the described skin of the sauropod Mamenchisaurus youngi, which is discussed in a book published by Ouyang and He, 2002 "The First Mamenchisaurian Skeleton with Complete Skull: Mamenchisaurus youngi". I have a PDF copy of the book and the relevant section about the skin is pictured below, but the book is in Chinese and the PDF does not have copy-enabled text, so i can't copy/paste it into google translate. My only option is to find someone that can translate it for me. Perhaps there is someone on this diverse forum that can help If anyone can translate this text into English it would be very much appreciated! Thankfully it isn't that long. If someone is able to translate this, i'm happy for this topic to then be deleted afterwards, as i realise it's not the usual sort of content and probably doesn't need to be kept visible long term.- 3 replies
