As you can see, if you use a bit of common sense (for example, the post above) it is possible to discuss the meaning of a word or phrase.

There's a big difference between posting the translation of the complete (or partial) chapter contents and that of posting the translation of a word or phase.

Clearly to discuss the manga you may want to ask the meaning of something but that doesn't mean you have to link the scans or post the entire translated page.
