I'm a Japanese.
I seriously want to be able to speak ,write and read like Native American.
Please teach me English, my teachers.
Journeys are usually longer and go father than trips. For example, you would take a month-long journey to Antarctica, while you would take a day-long trip to the beach.
>>57 "Journey" also implies that it's important, or that there's a goal, or that there's an adventure involved.
Also, "Journey" is the most awesome band of the 1980s.
>>60
Also, I forgot to mention. Journey can be a verb, but trip means something else as a verb. Something akin to stumbling. Like, "I tripped on the computer's power cable and fell on my face".
>>62
That's colloquial usage of the word "Trippin". We should teach formal language and not slang.
Man, English has way too many idioms.
You can say that again.
>>66
59 - Yes.
62,63 - Yes. (But change "isn't it" to "doesn't it", because it's short for "doesn't it mean 'tripping'?")
it should be added, though, that "trippin'" and more particularly the phrase "trippin' balls" can mean an experience with psychadelic drugs (e.g. LSD).
>>70
Google corrects "psychadelic" to "psychedelic", so I'd say so.

I personally don't use the word "trippin'", quiter frankly I've never been in a situation where I've had to use it.
>>73
What >>72 said was an example of a Russian Reversal which you can find out about in the link posted by >>74.

Sage is typed in the Link field when you do not want to bump the thread to the top of the list. Most people use sage when they have nothing positive to contribute or when replying to a thread started by a troll.

[trippin'] Me neither, I always call it high. Man, am I high. I am so high, I feel like I could pluck a kite out of the sky.
Hello. Can you practice my Japanese, please? I'll be waiting for you at the Japanese board, on the thread "I'd like someone to come and practice my Japanese, please." I'll teach you how to pronounce the l, r, and v sounds!
That bit in Colorful is helpful for practicing the l and r sounds.
Zapanese, I suggest you go outside and take hidden pictures up Japanese little girls' skirts and post them here. This is the best way to study English.
lol
Hi, Zapanese. I'm the host of the thread "I'd like someone to come and practice my Japanese, please." I'm still practicing my Japanese. Would you come back to the thread, please?

Nobody cares, this troll obviously isn't trying hard enough....what's wrong with throwing a few crumbs? That way if it isn't a troll we'd actually be helping and if it is....the troll can whet his beak.
In English, we don't call people "hentai". We call pornography in anime and manga "hentai", even if that doesn't make sense in Japanese.
There are a lot of "false friend" words that work that way. Whenever we import a word, it has to mean something a little different from a word we already have.
Please stop by the troll booth before crossing the bridge.
