Oh, I definitely didn't for that one, but only cause I forgot to edit it in. You realize I've only been on trisphee for a day, right?

Mika 10-10-2012 10:02 PM

It takes a bit to memorize all the rules. ^^

Coda 10-10-2012 11:19 PM

Which is why I just gave you a polite reminder. You're not in trouble; I was just letting you know what the rules are.

Mika 10-10-2012 11:27 PM

Ah, some people don't realize I'm new because of the avatar. Hermes gave me a bunch of stuff for joining. x3

Konnichiwa, mina!
Good afternoon, everyone!

Samui desu, nee.
It's very cold.

How would you ask: "What about where you are?" Or anything similar...

Mika 10-11-2012 01:13 PM

Minna is spelt with two n's, because it's written like this: みんな。

If you would like to say "very" you can use Totemo if you like. Totemo samui desu. If you ever need to negate and use "Very", Amari works well. "Amari atsukunai desu." would mean "It's not very hot." for example. Chotto means a little. "Chotto samui desu." is "It's a little cold."

What about you is easiest as "Anata mo?" Which means "You as well?" And can be used for any question like that. ;3

And since you're using polite form and not casual form, it's more natural to say "Minna-san" in this context. To keep all the grammar matching.

ugh i hate not being in my Japanese class.. it was so long along.. You just re-taught me stuff i learned in class about 5 years ago... isn't that sad?

Mika 10-11-2012 01:40 PM

It's fair. If you don't use a language on a regular basis, it's hard to retain the ability to use it. ;3 Especially if it's been five years.

かなしくなさそう!
It doesn't look sad!

whitexsuicide 10-11-2012 02:10 PM

yea but it's only really been two years since i was in that class... and i love the culture and the language to bits.. you would think that i would be able to remember the simple stuff....>>

Mika 10-11-2012 02:25 PM

Not if you don't get to use it everyday... >>

Coda 10-11-2012 03:12 PM

If you're asking about "there" you might say "soko wa dou?" ("How is (it) there?") or more fully, "soko ni tenki wa dou?" ("how is the weather there?")

"soko mo samui desu ka?" would be "is it cold there, too?"

Mika 10-11-2012 03:18 PM

THOSE ARE ALL GOOD ONES. <3
-chews on Coda-

Coda 10-11-2012 03:45 PM

Oh, added note, "dou desu ka" would be a less casual way of ending the sentence, if you need to be more polite.

whitexsuicide 10-11-2012 03:48 PM

that is why he is the lead Teacher here *cuddles Coda*
