LOL ! You mean the sentence '私がなに言った かしら' ? Didn't I say: Spoiler box... here's the code : [spoiler]your text here[/spoiler] I wrote a short story in Japanese. Anyone willing to read it ?

Makes sense ... Wha- what ?

Oh, OK... handsome President Obama visited to Indonesia with his beautiful wife .

I read this warning many times about never to try to speak like in the manga or anime with Japanese people (or people who speaks Japanese). Oh my bad, I didn't notice this till now... All I know that is 'Sugei' and 'Sugoi' mean the same thing... basically an exclamation of awesome. The only difference is that Sugei is more masculine and rough and Sugoi is more feminine. Never mind, I'll just edit it. :grin: _________________ Story: There's Japanese neighbour living below our apartment. One day, the eldest son (8 years old) came to play. I thought it'd be a good thing to practice my Japanese by talking to him. The first thing I did was greet him by saying, 'Ohayo, gakin-chwan .' He bowed and greeted back, 'ohayo, Onee-san.' I was nervous what should I say to begin a conversation, I have no idea why... but I randomly said... 'kekkon shite.' He seemed taken back by what I just said, and suddenly freaked out and started to run away from me giggling and laughing both at the same time. He fled into his house slamming the door behind him. I was confused... what did I say that made him freaked out ? 私がなに言った かしら.... can anyone explain why to me? Put the answer in a spoiler box .

I knew it ...

Why on earth would you visit this thread when you couldn't even see the members' avatar and signature which it is the main subject of this thread. I guess visiting might be OK... but why rate when you couldn't see? Aren't you just being sarcastic ? My previous avatar: Changed to:

Wow, that's pretty interesting. I didn't watch the first live action film and as for the second I just watch bits of it in Youtube (the interesting parts). But I guess I did watch it (but not in order). And as for the new one that's about to come... I don't mind having the Fansubs to wait. I would just watch it RAW. The comedic acting of the actors will be just fine enough for me to enjoy the movie (with laughter ).

I don't like the US version... I voted 'No' to all . I prefer to buy the Japanese versions even though I might not as well understand... though in a country I use to live I use to buy the mangas, and the way they are handling the series, it's wholly much better than how the US handles them (Case Closed)...

Wah ? 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 . So the DCTP reminded me . I also post things that we don't have there basely from here (DCTP), so it's kinda even . And DCTP have over 5000 topics ... Guess that you really likes to tweet, hehe . I am glad you like it . Kazu ... The ' ' Parkur puts doesn't look sarcastic comparing the one from DCTP ''. So it's OK .

Well, I favor Japanese anime more ... but I like the following cartoons : Tin-Tin (I like the mystery and adventure) Totally Spies (It's ridiculously awesome! Iyyaaaaa !) The Spectacular Spiderman (the best Spiderman cartoon ever! I love the actions~) Avatar (I love martial art there!)

What's on your mind, everyone !? Me start: I plan to make a site which will be containing a Wiki page like here, in DCW... but for Japanese studies in our case ...

Episode 549-550, The Revolving Shuhi Mystery! After all those cases and such ... Inspector Megure just realised it then . I hope this helped :grin: .

Hiragana: Lesson 14 - 'せ' [se] & 'ぜ' [ze] 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 '': 世界/せかい (sekai -> the world; the universe) 先生/せんせい (sensei -> teacher; master) せりふ (serifu -> speech; one's lines) 千/せん (sen -> 1000) Stroke order: ______________ 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) Pronunciation: ‘ぜ’ is romanized (pronounced) 'ze' as in 'zebra'. Word with 'す': 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).
