Oh dear, I hate online translators...

[mad_max2024]

Japanese online translators are among the funniest things in the net.

Isnt Shinerl a person who is studying at Tokyo university.
She is a fluent Japanese speaking person and I undertood it as we'll and her statement is not a product of the online translator.

But shinerl has some wrong english grammar.
Even translators have to be proffesional and not not knowing the language.
Translating English to spanish is difficult and so is Japanese to English.

The perspective that make Japanese the hardest language to learn by an english person is that we engliush use english as the mediant basis for Japanese but learning Japanese is easier if we use pictures rather that words. So is the children studying at pre-school.

to conclusion, It is easier to memorize words with images rather than word and word as basis since it increases your familiarity.

We'll you will never understand the laws of linguistics don't you.
Thanks from the help of my linguist neighbor that I know this things and I can effectively study Japanese.

I think you missed my point there, I was expressing my frustration for the translator that I used, not for shinerl.

It's a pretty good one, it just gives so many options for each one it's hard to know which to choose.
Oh, and my particles die.

[pianochick93]

Ehhhh, watashi wa totemo nemui desuyo!

(Can't even be bothere switching to Japanese characters to write this)

By the way, does anyone here speak Japanese so much in their head or to friends that they get random urges to speak it in public randomly. I've had an urge to yell out 'arigatou' to the bus driver or 'ja ne' to someone who doesn't speak Japanese at all.

hahahaha
That happens to me sometimes. Sometimes I actually do it. I've talked to myself in Japanese once...
*wonders if these are good signs

[mad_max2024]

I do that with English

[rob_the_dude]

So do I.

Tanman - What nationality are you? (*Hopes this isn't too personal  )

He's an Asain. I think somewhere near the Indonesia area.

[rob_the_dude]

AHHHH! That would explain the Japanese!

(Metaphorically hits himself on the head due to topic title!)

G.W.K - can we have a British Discussion Thread 

[G.W.K]

AHHHH! That would explain the Japanese!

(Metaphorically hits himself on the head due to topic title!)

LOL...I don't think that would be good. It would be the perfect excuse for the Scottish and English to insult each other. (Like we have been doing in other posts.)
