A direct translation (which is an very rough translation) into english would be: Dog the road crossed
There the verb (action, in this case the crossing) is at the end of the sentence as opposed to with the noun helping us to understand the sentence.

Apologies as I have stated above my skills are extremely limited at best.
I still love the fact the east is still such an exotic place. And the west to them is also pretty exotic. My first friend was half japanese and his mother was from tokyo. Use to bring me all sort of stuff from tokyo, so I have always had japan in my life I will visit it one day. I know quiet a bit about japan and its culture from her.
