こんばんわ！
ねむたい～　T3T

Evening!
I'm sleepy. TT 3TT

Blaine, thread rules and site rules state you need translations.. please put a translation in your post..

Done and done! C:
And I didn't know that. ^ u^

... Its on the first page of this thread, in the site rules, and in the rules for the hangout forum...

Aha! Well, you have to realize I'm a bumbling idiot who can't seem to read, is a fool, and shouldn't even be posting. xD I should probably go before I upset more people with my stupidity. U uU

Sorry for being a prude! Have a good day. c: Twas a beautiful one for sure!

you live with ashurato >< you should be speaking it constantly!

Hehe.. well here you can bounce it off of me and help me learns :3

Ooo nice =o

*adds them to front*

I don't like google translation that much ._.

And here I though it was just because you were struck speechless by how much you love me.

もう信じられない！

I haven't studied in so long.
I'm a bad student. @.@

hahahaha maybe not now xD

あしゅらとさんは日本人ですか？

Ashurato are you japanese?
Technical: Is Ashurato Japanese?

＊Note: What I have been told many times over is that when in Japan, they don't use 君（きみ・Kimi） or　あなた very often. Instead they replace the name where 君（きみ・Kimi） or　あなた　are. I have not been told whether you have to use は after the subject in the case where you are ask them - aka omitting the 君（きみ・Kimi） or　あなた　- or whether you have to use it. I know in informal speech you can omit a lot of particles but let's stick with formal since it is best to learn that first - in my opinion.

＠MizuMahou:
「話しませんだから。」の代わりに『話しませんでしたから。』を言えばいいだと思います。（I think I wrote that right... we just touched base on the "ba" form of verbs before this quarter ended.)

I think you should say 話しませんでしたから instead of 話しませんだから （More like I think it is good to say　話しませんでしたから instead of　話しませんだから)

Shinka's right on that one. あなた is more so used for married couples in the term of, "Honey, honey!" rather than you. So, don;'t use it unless you're ready~ ;>

Hallo Shinka! You may not know me, but I'm friends with Divi xD;

@ shinka - 日本人ですよ〜

＠Blaine: Well hi!Nice to meet ya!

＠あしゅらと：そうですか？日本に住んでいますか？もしそうなら、何町に住んでいますか？ That is if you don't mind my asking. I won't be offended if you choose not to answer.私はアメリカのワシントン州のタコマに住んでいます。昨日、私の日本人の友達は福岡へ帰りま した。めっっっっっっっちゃかなしかったですよ！！！みんなは泣いていました。T^T

いや、九歳の時にロスアンジェルスに引っ越しました。私の日本の出身は埼玉県の川越市ですけど、もう何年が 過ごして、家族の皆さんはもうカリフォルニアやハワイに住んでいます。

shinkaの友達が帰国しても、いつか日本へ行って、友達の住み場所に訪問することができるかもしれない でしょう？　だから元気だしてね？

みなさん、こんにちは、ごめんなさい私はアクションの中の行方不明になってきました。私は何を 欠場か？

(Hello everyone, sorry I've been missing in action. Did I miss anything?)

Ahhhh! The kanji! The kanjiiii!! D8 -flails-

I need to learn more v___v;;

@ultima:
i found this a LONG time ago and it helped me a lot if i didn't understand the kanji http://nihongo.j-talk.com/kanji/
i use it now from time to time if i am unsure if i use the onyomi or kunyomi reading.

@echo-chan:
いいえ、チャットすることをただ始まった。
（No, we just started to chat.)

＠あしゅらと：
あ！うらやましい～～～～ロスアンジェレスへ行きたい！！本当行きたい！！！＞３＜　

二番文は少し分からなかったけど直後に読むことを考え出した。とにかく、カリフォルニアへも行きたい。でも 、たいていお金がない＝A＝笑そしても、私の家族のほとんどもハワイに住んでいます。面白いね～＜３毎日あ しゅらとさんのご家族は日本語を家で話していますか？

あの。。。Pardon me for asking but。。。宮城県の近くにご家族を持っていますか？＞＜

もしすぐにしごとしていることを始めれば夏、福岡と北九州へ行けます。その考えだからに私とみんなさんはと ても楽しみです。＾＾みんなさんは私に会いたい。そして、日本のお酒を飲みたいですよ～

Oh another good site is http://jisho.org/kanji/radicals/

二人のいとこが流されてしまった。英語で書かないでください。トリスフィーの皆を心配したくない。大げさも なりたくない。

分かります。もし訳ありません。
利用規約に対したとおもいます。
そしても、私はあしゅらとさんの損失ごめんなさい。

Hrm, so I've discovered that, in my kanji class, it's actually nice to learn all the chinese AND japanese reading of a particular kanji. While it's good to learn the vocab with a kanji admittedly, it's not a bad idea to learn all the readings of the kanji you know. So if you run across it in an unfamiliar word, you may be able to guess how to pronounce it.

Yeah that's what my japanese teacher tells me too. But she has only taught so many onyomi and kunyomi. I don't have a kanji book to get the readings from otherwise I would! I agree that it is the smartest way to do it.

Yeah, a lot of people studied the vocab she gave us, and it's a good idea to look it over, but it's smarter to just memorize the readings instead, I found. I did a lot better on my test than I thought I would because I did it that way. I only missed anything because A) I didn't understand the sentence and B) I couldn't remember the readings. XD

I had a kanji book, so I was able to get all the readings, and she gave them all to us as well. Unfortunately, with our tests, in our Kanji class it's retarded cause we get sentences with vocab and structures we've never encountered before and half of them also seem to be in casual speech so it's really hard to use context clues. @_@'

Bloop. Man, look at you guys going on in Japanese. :3
I got some motivation to start studying again.
Back to kanji practice! lol

How are you guys doing?

Guys.. remember to add your translations somewhere in your post... Please?

Don't just give out sites that translates the stuff.. ._.

This isn't just the rule for this thread.. its everywhere in the site and forum rules ._.

There's this guy in my Japanese class who lived in Japan for two years for a mission, and he insists on talking to me in Japanese, and I just stare at him blankly. It's like, I appreciate the attempt but your accent sucks, you're talking casually, you talk too fast, and I don't care to look like a retard right now trying to stammer together a sentence reply for you. x.x'

Especially when they have an accent that destroys the language (such as talking Spanish in a French accent)

I don't know wtf accent he's trying to use but it's bad. And he's hard to understand.

British accent?

no, it's just a fake japanese accent.

It's a fake japanese accent? That is kinna disrespectful yeah? And have you told him you don't wish to speak at the moment? cause he should totally oblige you. ＾＾

I see. I just bought a new kanji book. I need to brush up before the end of this year's JLPT. I wanna ROCK it. Anyways, it sounds like you have a pretty good plan. I might tyr it out. Along with anki.

Ohhhhh. Yeah see my teacher will only give us sentences and the structures that she has already taught. Along with kanji she has taught with both readings. I think it's stupid to try ti the other way. It's not as effective since you won't know the sentences.
