The Pauma Band of Luiseno Indians has provided a $50,000 grant to Cal State San Marcos' California Indian Culture and Sovereignty Center, and Palomar College's American Indian Studies Department, to create Luiseno language cartridges for the video games.
The cartridges will be distributed to members of the tribe's seven bands in Riverside and San Diego counties.
"What we're hoping to do is preserve the voices of current speakers for future generations, and to make learning the language fun, easy and accessible for all Luiseno people," said Joely Proudfit, a Cal State professor and director of the center.

So, is this directly from Japanese, or by way of English? Because when you make a translation of a translation of a translation, you lose something.
I don't know. I'd guess the translation is from English since most people don't know Japanese.
