I don't know how your name is pronounced so it would either be カイリ (かいり) or ケイリ (けいり). ^^

- Scratches head - It's pronounced "Kay-lee". I've tried translating it into Katakana but, I don't know if it's correct, I think it's the second one [?] >_<
I guess I'm not that "noob" at reading Katakana >_> I could read those without reading the Hiragana. And AH, icky typos :[ I always forget some letters. When I had "さ", I meant to type "San" </3

[kneekey]

can i know the japanese writing of japanese and jpop
lol..sorry, im new in japanese language

[Tamago86]

Haha, I finally figured out the sentence structure !

あそこにいました。(over there existing) ーー＞あそこにいったいぬ。(a dog is over there) －－＞あそこのいったいぬはとてもきたないです。(a dog over there is dirty)－－＞あなたはあそこにいったいぬをきたないです(a dog over there that is yours is dirty)。

Start off with basic sentence structure, add noun since sentence modifies it? Then from there expand it/add more detail.

should be あそこにいたあなたの犬はきたないです or あなたのあそこにいた犬はきたないです
Past tense of いる is いた
を is only used for verbs

can i know the japanese writing of japanese and jpop

Japanese (language) = 日本語
pop music = 人気音楽 or ポピュラー音楽
in Japanese they use the word J-POP as well (pronounced jeipoppu - ジェイポップ) so no real need to translate it

You wouldn't refer to yourself as "san". ahah
Just "ケイリ" is ok. ^^

[ae4azns]

Translation into kana plz:

No, I'm not Japanese.
Are you studying Japanese?
Have a nice day!


Thank you!

Thank you!

No, I'm not Japanese. いいえ、日本人じゃありません。いいえ、にほんじんじゃありません。iie, nihon jin jya arimasen.

Are you studying Japanese? 日本語を勉強していますか？　にほんごをべんきょうしていますか？ nihongo wo benkyou shite imasu ka?

Take care! (Have a nice day!) お気をつけて！　おきをつけて！ o ki wo tsukete!

Thank you (formal) ありがとうございます！　arigatou gozaimasu!

For have a nice day, there really isn't a Japanese translation. However, people generally say "o ki wo tsukete" in the same way English-speakers say "Have a nice day!"

[ae4azns]

^ ah thank you very much!

[ilovemesomekorean]

"I will teach you Japanese tomorrow" It's more like "I will teach you Japanese tomorrow, ok?! Friendly tone
You can respond depending on whether you want to learn or not.
Probably in the positive right? So --> "Doomo yoroshiku" and you can add please--> "onegai shimasu"

(I don't have Japanese font support only my mom's computer does, sorry".)

thank you! >.< its okay that you dont have the font, i cant read it anyway.. lol..

[tnn2000]

Quick question: What does sekushi mean?

[butterflyeffect]

^
"sexy".
You're missing an extra "i" though so it should be "sekushii".

[*UnReaL]

私は私常に愛するあなたとの私の限られた時間を使いたいと思う

does anyone know what this means??

[Gotericshin]

^輪かない

(just testing japanese font)

[eternity*kiss]

looks like a great thread for those wanting to learn japanese (like me!) thanks!

btw, can someone recommend a good book to buy to learn basic japanese?

[RiA]

what does it mean when a verb is in its TE + RU form? like...

dakishimeru = dakishimeteru
obieru = obieteru

[akira53]

^ the ru form is the verb's dictionary form....so when you look it up in a dictionary you'll see dakishimeru or obieru
the te form of verbs can be used for a bunch of things but commonly when you're putting verbs together. I did xx and xx (pan wo tabete juusu wo nomashita, i ate bread and drank juice)
If you use te form + iru that indicates an ongoing action (-ing in English) like tabeteiru=eating, nondeiru=drinking
teru is an informal way of saying the te+iru...used in casual speech the i is dropped. tabeteiru=tabeteru, tenisu o shiteiru=tenisu o shiteru

[RiA]

^ ah so TE + (I)RU is the casual form of verb + TE IMASU!
i see, it does makes sense. thanks for helping~ ^^

[akira53]

^ yeah, teru is the more casual form or teimasu

[teukstrid]

My computer crashed and now I cant find it anymore. Does anyone know what im talking about and where I can find it??
