    Dammit kaoko stop stealing dctp threads :P

    Wah d582d79f.gif? Well, in this case... I didn't really steal this time. I had this in mind for a long time, I just remembered again when I logged in DCTP 70bff581.gif.

    So the DCTP reminded me th_102_.gif. I also post things that we don't have there basely from here (DCTP), so it's kinda even 023.gif. And DCTP have over 5000 topics sillyp1.gif...

    This is one that I'm quite glad Kaoko decided to take. It's one of the few DCTP Off-Topic threads I really like.

    Anyway, on my mind right now is how tired I am, yet how lazy I've become. I have to get a ton of work done before tomorrow morning, but nope, rather just lie here and laze off...

    Guess that you really likes to tweet, hehe 07baa27a.gif. I am glad you like it :lol:.

    I don't know if it's true but what's wrong with that?

    Usually, I often find some japanese fanarts on occidental forums and nobody say anything about it. Japanese people don't like foreigners reuse their fanarts. But people steal them.

    So it's not a big deal to steal japanese fanart but it's a problem to create similar threads on 2 forums? I don't really get it.

    Kazu 016.gif...

    Parkur is merely joking. <3

    The ' :P ' Parkur puts doesn't look sarcastic comparing the one from DCTP 'tongue.gif'. So it's OK :P.

    Hiragana: Lesson 14 - 'せ' [se] & 'ぜ' [ze]

    100px-Japanese_Hiragana_kyokashotai_SE.png

    せ, in hiragana, or セ in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, each of which represents one mora. Both represent the sound [se], and when written with dakuten represent the sound [ze].

    Pronunciation:

    'せ' is romanized 'ze'.

    Word beginning with '':

    1. 世界/せかい (sekai -> the world; the universe)
    2. 先生/せんせい (sensei -> teacher; master)
    3. せりふ (serifu -> speech; one's lines)
    4. 千/せん (sen -> 1000)

    Stroke order:

    260px-%E3%81%9B-bw.png

    Hiragana_%E3%81%9B_stroke_order_animation.gif

    ______________

    The character 'せ' may also be combined with a dakuten, changing it into 'ぜ' in hiragana, and 'ze' in Hepburn romanization. With the dakuten added the pronunciation is changed, to 'ze'. せ + " (dakuten) = ぜ (look below)

    240px-%E3%81%9C-bw.png

    Pronunciation:

    ‘ぜ’ is romanized (pronounced) 'ze' as in 'zebra'.

    Word with 'す':

    1. ぜんぜん (zenzen -> not at all [negative])

    Task: You shall write 'せ' & 'ぜ' 50 - 100 times in your textbook. If you want, like with the previous lessons, write 'せ' 70 times and 'ぜ' 30 times. Memorize the shape, the stroke order, the sound, the pronunciation (echo the sound of the character each time you write it down), etc.

    And after you've done that, write 'さ', 'し', 'す', and 'せ' one after each repetitively (さ, し, す, せ, さ, し, す, せ, etc.) 50 times (100 if you have time).

    Question:

    Once we learn all the characters how will we learn the meaning of these words. Will we google search the meanings of words we transtate to romanji.

    also a little tip:

    Study in the morning

    Your brain is very receptive to information first thing in the morning. Studies have proven that kids do better in their 1st hour classes.

    Wow, arigatou for sharing this with us! And that study in the morning tip do seems interesting :D.

    And to your first question there... umm... nope, as Kenny stated, automatic translation (including Google) cannot be trusted.

    That looks exactly like the first lesson I taught in here (or first question I answered to be precise).

    Although Kaoko and I have yet to discuss how we're going to teach everyone words, you can safely assume we're not going to be using google translater.

    Yup! Once we are done with the characters, you'll all see :D!

    Having to memorize list of vocabularies will only give you headaches... and it's hard to stick them to your head... I have a better way in mind sillyp1.gif~ :mrgreen:

    i'm like failing my first block class... then second block i have an A+.. in third.. i'm like failing (lunch block) and fourth i have like... another A+

    Hmmm... th_104_.gif??

    Moving on to the next 's' character... す 'su'!

    Hirgana: Lesson 13 - 'す' [su] & 'ず' [zu]

    100px-Japanese_Hiragana_kyokashotai_SU.png

    す, in hiragana, or ス in katakana is one of the Japanese kana, each of which represents one mora. Their shapes come from the kanji 寸 and 須, respectively. Both kana represent the sound [su͍]). In the Ainu language, the katakana ス can be written as small ㇲ to represent a final s, and is used to emphasize the pronunciation of rather than the normal [ɕ] (represented in Ainu as ㇱ).

    Pronunciation:

    'す' is romanized 'su'.

    Word beginning with 'す':

    1. すな (suna -> sand)
    2. すし (sushi -> Japanese dish)
    3. すてき (suteki -> beautiful; lovely)
    4. すばらしい (subarashii -> wonderful; splendid)
    5. すごい (sugoi -> incredible; impressive)
    6. する (suru -> to do)

    Stroke order:

    ______________

    The character 'す' may also be combined with a dakuten, changing it into ず in hiragana, and 'zu' in Hepburn romanization. With the dakuten added the pronunciation is changed, to 'zu'. す + " (dakuten) = ず (look below)

    200px-%E3%81%9A-bw.png

    Pronunciation:

    ‘ず’ is romanized (pronounced) ‘zu’ as in ‘zoo’.

    Word with 'す':

    1. 水/みず (mizu -> water)
    2. まずい (mazui -> not good)
    3. まず (mazu -> first [of all]; to start with)

    Task: You shall write 'す' & 'ず' 50 - 100 times in your textbook. If you want, like with the previous lessons, write 'す' 70 times and 'ず' 30 times. Memorize the shape, the stroke order, the sound, the pronunciation (echo the sound of the character each time you write it down), etc.

    And after you've done that, write 'さ', 'し', and 'す' one after each repetitively (さ, し, す, さ, し, す, etc.) 50 times (100 if you have time).

    Ano... I am not sure if my confusion should be posted here but... I may sound stupid to ask this... but anyway!

    When Chris and Sharon Vineyard was discovered to be one and the same person in episode 345... back in episode when they showed a flashback of Chris's mother, Sharon's funeral; If Chris and Sharon were actually the same person, then who on earth was lying in the coffin at the funeral?! Who's inside e111de78.gif!? Can you answer to this, Professor Chekhov 044.gif?

    Sorry for the late updates, guys. I got stuck here and I had difficulty in explaining stuffs. But it had been solved thanks to Kenny-sensei for helping with this lesson :D.

    Hirgana: Lesson 12 - 'し' [shi] & 'じ' [ji]

    100px-Japanese_Hiragana_kyokashotai_SI.png

    し, in hiragana, or シ in katakana, and the variant form ㋛, is one of the Japanese kana, which each represent one mora. Both represent the phoneme /si/ although for phonological reasons, the actual pronunciation is 'shi' as in 'she'. The shapes of these kana have origins in the character 之. The katakana form has become increasingly popular as an emoticon in the Western world due to its resemblance to a smiling face.

    Pronunciation:

    'し' is romanized 'shi' and pronounced 'shi' as in the English 'she'.

    Word beginning with 'し':

    1. 死 = し (shi -> death)
    2. 死ぬ = しぬ (shinu -> to die)
    3. 知る = しる (shiru -> to know; to understand)
    4. ４月 = しがつ (shigatsu -> April)
    5. 指紋 = しもん (shimon -> fingerprint)

    Other sounds:

    The pronunciation of the character 'し' can also be changed to 3 different sounds.

    Stroke order:

    120px-%E3%81%97-bw.png

    Hiragana_%E3%81%97_stroke_order_animation.gif

    The 'し' stroke order is easy. It's just like drawing umbrella's handle; beginning from the top then smoothly slide it down and up a little.

    ______________

    A dakuten may also be added to this character. But instead of changing the pronunciation to 'z' sound like the rest of the 's' characters... 'し' [shi] with dakuten added -> じ [ji] is pronouced 'ji' like with the English alphabet 'G'.

    160px-%E3%81%98-bw.png

    Words with 'じ':

    1. じい (jii -> old man)
    2. 自殺 = じさつ (jisatsu -> suicide)
    3. 時間 = じかん (jikan -> hour; time)
    4. 事件 = じけん (jiken -> case; affair; incident)

    ______________

    YO-ON

    In the Japanese language there are also contracted words called 拗音 (yo-on). They are made up of two letters written together. A hiragana ending with “i” such as ki (き), shi (し), etc... followed by a small ya (ゃ), yu (ゅ) or yo (ょ).

    The hiragana’s ending with “i” also include their dakuten and handakuten versions.

    The yoon’s for 'shi' are:

    1. しゃ/sha (Pronounced: sha) Ex. 写真/しゃしん shashin (picture)
    2. しゅ/shu (P: shu) Ex. 旬/しゅん shun (fresh)
    3. しょ/sho (P: shyo) Ex. 初心者/しょしんしゃ shoshinsha (freshman/newbie)

    The yoon’s for 'ji' are:

    1. じゃ/ja (P: jiya) Ex. じゃあね jaane ([good] bye)
    2. じゅ/ju (P: jyu) Ex. 塾/じゅく juku (tutor/tutoring center)
    3. じょ/jo (P: jyo) Ex. 少女/しょうじょ shoujo (little girl)

    A full list can be found here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y%C5%8Don

    ______________

    Task: You shall write 'し' & 'じ' 50 - 100 times in your textbook. If you want, like with the previous lessons, write 'し' 70 times and 'じ' 30 times . Memorize the shape, the stroke order, the sound, the pronunciation (echo the sound of the character each time you write it down), etc.

    PS: The Hiragana: Lesson 7 - 'き' [ki] & 'ぎ' [gi] will be edited and upgraded shortly. We will inform you when it's fully done.

    I can see that. They can't get enough of your lessons.

    Let's go with ditching romaji once everyone's learned hiragana. I don't think anyone needs romaji when learning katakana do they?

    LOL! We can just Hiraganize the Katakanas in the lessons before we get to know about them ^^

    The Katakana characters isn't much used anyways.. I mean not as frequent as Hiragana characters ^_^.

    Now that we've learnt the vowel and 'K' sections, we are now moving on to 'S' section!

    Hiragana: Lesson 11 - 'さ' [sa] & 'ざ' [za]

    100px-Japanese_Hiragana_kyokashotai_SA.png

    さ, in hiragana, or サ in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, which each represent one mora. Both represent [sa]. The shapes of these kana originate from 左 and 散, respectively.

    Like き, the hiragana character may be written with or without linking the lower line to the rest of the character.

    Pronunciation:

    'さ' is romanized 'sa' and pronounced 'sa' as in 'sakura'.

    Word beginning with 'さ':

    1. 酒 = さけ (sake -> sake [alcohol])
    2. 猿 = さる (saru -> monkey)
    3. 桜 = さくら (sakura -> cherry blossom)
    4. 魚 = さかな (sakana -> fish)
    5. 寒い = さむい (samui -> cold [adj.])
    6. 殺人 = さつじん (satsujin -> murder)

    Stroke Order:

    240px-%E3%81%95-bw.png

    Hiragana_%E3%81%95_stroke_order_animation.gif

    The character 'さ' may be combined with a dakuten, changing it into ざ in hiragana, and za in Hepburn romanization. The pronunciation is also changed, to [za]. さ + " (dakuten) = ざ (look below)

    240px-%E3%81%96-bw.png

    Word with 'ざ':

    1. わざわさ (wazawaza -> doing something especially rather than incidentally (wazawaza is more like a phrase))

    Note: You shall write 'さ' & 'ざ' 50 - 100 times in your textbook. If you want, like with the previous lessons, write 'さ' 70 times and 'ざ' 30 times . Memorize the shape, the stroke order, the sound, the pronunciation (echo the sound of the character each time you write it down), etc.

    Good luck B)!

    There was a time when there were lots of cases with 4 suspects, I guess you can say Gosho is somehow going back to the basics with this case : 4 suspects, a client, some blood...This case just feels like the good old ones to me. ;)

    Same here. That's what I had in mind, too, but... I had a difficulty in explaining it and writing it down, hehe 154218d4.gif~ Thank you for pointing it out 4412144b.gif.

    By the way, you are the same Wakarimashita from DCTP, or am I mistaken :P?

  14. Posted · Report reply

    Yeah, I reckon it's either the architect or the woman for the reasons listed in this thread. Although I do find it extremely weird that there are four suspects and some red herrings in this case, it's very unusual for Gosho to break from his normal three suspect murder case. Perhaps it's leading up to something? What does everyone else think?

    LOL! Yeah, Gosho's usual cases always with 3 suspects... 3 is the least usual. Because if there're two ->

    Person 1: It's not me 014.gif... so it can only be you df13952b.gif.

    Person 2: Liar! It's not me... it's YOU 4d6161fd.gif!

    The one who is not lying would know that the other is the real culprit ^_^

    But I see some of DC cases that has only one suspect... but lack of evidence :P~

    Umm... this certainly is interesting. I think it's only a change of habit ^_^

    But I also think... if this case were to have only 3 suspects... it would be more easier to guess.

    I just re-read the file 762 and read the file 763 ac0d5cff.gif...

    Mmm... I voted for Architect Karube Teigo f529a952.gif.

    1. The weapon is his folded umbrella where he didn't give it to the butler but instead stuffed it in his coat.
    2. The motive is the death of his childhood friend.
    3. His trick is... as Chekhov concluded above :P.

    I didn't read your theories till now that I have read the files... but wow, Chehov... you are brilliant :o! Genius I would say th_118_.gif...

    i say no. Studing from romanji messes up your japanese dialect

    Memorizing Hiagana would be more memorable in Hiragana and not Romanji

    That's what we meant, Cheesus-kun. :D Now, we'll just have to wait what Kenny-sensei says.

    Yeah, I agree with the others. I reckon that you learn it better if you don't use the romanji once the hiragana is learnt. That way you actually use what you learn and it makes it easier to remember. It does work, I've even got an example!! :lol:

    Once I was reading a set of books(Artemis Fowl series) and there was this code running along the bottom of the pages. So, I decided using the key at the back to translate it(I was in year 6 :oops: ). Basically what happened was that I started to remember certain letters so I didn't have to keep glancing to the key and by the end of the book I had memorised the entire alphabet. So, long rant over, using them helps you remember. :mrgreen:

    (And I'm not wei- okay, I'm not that weird. Seriously)

    I'm glad you think of it that way, Stopwatch-chan. Your example is amazing! That what I use to do, too (when I just got to know the Japanese characters). And don't worry, I don't think you are weird at all :mrgreen:

    @Kenny: Our members are gorgeous! They are more willing and determined than they seems to be :o!
