Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by on 2007-08-21 05:36:16

@Izumi: "Baka mitai" would roughly mean "look like an idiot".

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by IzumiLuvAnime on 2007-08-20 21:45:32

cukime # English is not my primary language too. rie # may I know what "baka mitai" in the sentence "atashi wa baka mitai na~" means? and what's the different between omoshiroii and omoshirokute? tanoshii, tanoshimite, tanoshinde and tanoshikute? I'm so confused! I'll be every thing that I want to be and you can't stop me.V^^,W

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by cukime on 2007-08-20 18:20:03

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by IzumiLuvAnime on 2007-08-16 05:56:07

izumi-chan ga iin desu~ asd # well, grammatically you're right.. We don't say "because moon shining in night" but we'll say "because moons shines at night"~ Thanks! That helps a lot! I'll be every thing that I want to be and you can't stop me.V^^,W

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by on 2007-08-16 00:22:50

Eh, for the second one, shouldn't it be "tsuki ga yoru ni kagayaku dakara" if you want the translation to be "because the moon shines at night"? Sorry if I'm wrong...

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by cukime on 2007-08-15 22:34:22

yamashita-san or should I say izumi-san... dochi mo iidesuka? just like asd-san told : kagayaku --> shining/shiny/bright if you put it into another words ex: 1. kagayaku toki no naka de --> Into a bright moment 2. Tsuki no kagayaku yoru dakara --> because moon shinning in night * i took it from J dorama hope it will help you ^^ stupid person who wants to be useful for anyone

Well, I don't think meaning of words change with the sentence, except if you change the hiragana/other kanji that follows the "root kanji" of the word. Oh, and Kira, when used as a particle, "ha" reads "wa", and "minna" could mean "everyone/all (people)".

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by IzumiLuvAnime on 2007-08-15 06:32:53

I actually wanna say 14 years old~ Maybe it's juu yon sai.. Like when it's in a sentence.. Examples of sentence maybe? I'll be every thing that I want to be and you can't stop me.V^^,W

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by kirajc on 2007-08-15 05:44:09

Watashi no namae ha kira desu Kochira koso all

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by on 2007-08-15 01:59:44

Youkoso! "Ju yom sai"? Don't you mean "juu yon sai"? I think "kagayaku" means shining/shiny, and what do you exactly mean by combining it with other words?

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by IzumiLuvAnime on 2007-08-15 01:47:15

Hajimemashite. Yamashita Izumi desu. Ju Yom sai desu. I was wondering.. What does kagayaku means literaly and what will it means if we combine it with other words?? I'll be every thing that I want to be and you can't stop me.V^^,W

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by on 2007-08-14 12:34:11

Waoh! Japanese learners club! iikurabudane... bokumo mazetekudasai (Nice club, I'd like to join) Hajimemashite minna bokuwa myrtilus64 15yrs. old going 16 korekaramo yoroshiku! (:Þ) Aboute me: Boku nihonde umarete shogaku sanneisei made benkyoushitetakara nihongo shaberemasu, ato ima gaikoku de benkyou tsuzuketerukara Eigo mo shabereruyo ^^ ammari jouzujanaikedone... (I studied in Japan since birth until grade 3 so I can speak Japanese, also I'm studying abroad so I can also speak English=Eigo ^^ but I'm not that good) -I hope I can be of help- @林德耀: Corrections: "かれはワルドチャンピョンや。" If you translate this to English it will be "He is a warudo champion", it has same thought with "He is the world champion" but you forgot to put -(dash) between "ワ" and "ル" to make it sound "world", and you don't need to put "や" at the end of the phrase, it will sound like Kansaiben...(dialect in Japan, the way Kawachi Kyousuke talks in Yakitate!Japan), rather change it with です or なのです. Lastly, it will sound best if you say "かれがワ-ルドチャンピョンです"。 -Dismal Felicity-

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by on 2007-08-10 16:36:51

Hajimemashite, minna-san. Boku wa kira desu. Dozo yoroshiku onegai shimasu. I'm not good in translation. I just understand what they mean.

www.Talksushi.com has good lessons.

Re: Japanese Learners Club ^.^ Link | by r3ck0rd on 2007-07-23 05:24:17

@Asdertygh: Yes you're right. And the last sentence, yes I don't think it's right too. You're right about the your translation. Well... Can you help me for "want to join" phrase? :) @Shen: Next time, don't say "jap". "He is the world champion" かれはワルドチャンピョンや。 kare wa warudo chanpyon ya. The codename's r3ck0rd. Find me in my Facebook Profile Page, or in my blog.

Pay attention to the transitive and intransitive verbs. It not as the smae as in English. For example: hajimaru (yodan) : (subject) to begin; ex: matsuri ga hajimatta. hajimeru (ichidan): to begin (object); ex: shigoto wo hajimeru tsumori da. tatsu (yodan): (subject) being build; ex: uchi no mae ni biru ga tatta. tateru (ichidan): to build (object); ex: uchi no mae ni biru wo tatte iru. (someone is building it, but not mentionned) other example: umu - umareru naosu - naoreru etc. This is very similar to passive and causative form, but those transformation of the same radicals are in the dictionary, while the forms do not.

@Link: >>I don't think ba would be the proper ending for hairu, since ba usually denotes a positive outcome. I could be wrong. It's haireba, a conditional. Though in my opinion, 入ったら/haittara would fit more correctly. Not sure though, as I learned on TJP tara has a meaning of not set in stone while eba does. ブログを見てください！
