Still, this page

http://www.ruby-lang.org/ja/man-1.6/?cmd=view;name=%B5%BF%BB%F7BNF%A4%CB%A4
%E8%A4%EBRuby%A4%CE%CA%B8%CB%A1

presents Ruby in a Nutshell in a Nutshell, and you don't need to know
Japanese.


But if you really do need a translation, go to
http://world.altavista.com/

Select "Japanese to English"  from the drop-down, and paste in a URL.
Presto: awkward but readable English.

It's well worth doing.  It's quite nicely laid out, and it's easy to see
what classes have what methods, how they work, and so on.  It helps if you
know C, but even if you don't you can still find the names of classes,
modules, constants, methods, etc, and see how they relate.
