how can I earn money to buy things without the sword, etc.?

Without a sword you have a very big problem. Different from the original quest, aka 1.qst, you can't find money without bombing a rock or burning a tree. The other "problem": Without a sword you can't win the fight. We all know: You can't kill Ganon without a sword. But this is not your biggest problem, because without a sword you will never reach Ganon's room.

where can I find the English speaking version

At the moment nowhere. If you are really interested, I can translate the strings. That was planned for the final version anyway.
