LOL How old are you!? Must be more than 35.
I haven't heard the dead word "ぶりっ子" for about 20 years.

Japanese has pitch accent.
We regard high-pitched accent as polite in unconsciousness.
When Japanese women talk on phone, they talk on deadly high-pitched accent.
They think it polite and it make themselves more charming.
Even when men talk on phone with their superior, you can hear they talk high-pitched.
It made you tempted, I think.
But gaijin who don't like Japanese regard it as childish or unnatural.

This article will give you more explanation about it.

hi, Do you still check this thread?
i worked for an English education company.
so i know how a japanese company employs a native english teacher.
first, we prefer someone who has a proper VISA.
if you can get working holiday Visa, at least you can work more than 6 monthes.
some japanese company alwasy seeks native english teacher and basecally your payment will be expensive than japanese people.
but after the end of your working Visa you have to find how to make your Visa longer.
if you graduated a two/fore year college, you still have the chance. the company will arrenge for you.
but if you didn't , unfortunately to renew your Visa is impossible.
the exceptions are to get married with a japanese , become a japanese learning student or to find the other way, and continue to work for the english school more than 3 years. then you will be treated as an expert and the company can provide Visa.
good luck.
>>106
that is true.
but to seek jobs by traveler's Visa is nonsense.
because you cannot get foreigner's ID and that means you canot open your bank account in japan.
so working holiday Visa is the best.
if you have fore year college's degree or three years exprience as an english teacher,the japanese immigration bureau gives employee's Visa.
but the japanese immigration bureau is very strict and live in a foreign country is also hard. so you need to decide very carefully.
quick question what is the difference between:
arigatou gozaimasu
arigatou gozaimashita
domo arigatou
?
1 arigatou gozaimasu
2 arigatou gpozaimasita
3 domo arigatou
1 and 2 are more polite expressions than 3
because gozaimasu is a honorific word.
gozaimasu is present tense and gogaimasita is past tense.
but I think you can use both expressions in the same situation.
I'm a typical Japanese ,so believe me ! lol
arigatou gozaimasu
Thank you に過去形はあるのですか？
>>112
I'd like to ask you a question adversely.
If you come across the person who helped you in the past,
What would you say to him/her in English ?
We Japanese say "その節はお世話になりました”
Sorry for my poor English !
correction
その節はお世話になり、有難うございました。
>>114
I dont understand waht does that mean but...
If he helped not long ago you could say
"thank you for helping me (yesterday,this morning...), if i can help you in something, please let me how."
If he helped you a long time ago in something very important you just could thank him, i dont think there is a way to talk with somebody like japanese do
Anyway, wait for a true english speaker to answer your questions
>>114
I'd most likely say something like "Thanks for the help yesterday/this morning" (just put when they helped you), or you could say "Thanks a lot for helping me yesterday/this morning", or if you want to go a bit british, "Thanks mate for the help before/yesterday/this morning" etc etc etc.
その節はお世話になり、有難うございました。
My japanese is bad, so I use Rikaichan and my basic understanding of Japanese grammer. to me, if I translated that, it would say:
"Thank you for looking after me that time".
その文に「なり」何意味ですか？ (Is this correct?)
If that is right: What does "Nari" mean in this sentence?
>>115
What he said is good, but with the correction of the mistakes:
"Thank you for helping me yesterday/this morning, if there is anything that I can help with, please let me know", which to me is formal, unformal could be:
"Thanks for helpin' me yesterday/this morning, if there's anything I can help you with, just let me know!"
Hope that helps you :)
「べらせて」は何ですか？
>>118
Let me french kiss you.かな？
>>117
With my English ability,It's very tough to explain to you about "nari"
osewa suru is active voice
osewa ni naru is passive voice
and nari is a variation of naru.
Wow,I give up ! I can't tell you exactly what I want to say.
P.S.
You're right.My Japanese sentences is equal to your translation:Thank you for looking after me that time.
But take a look at 110 which is my posting.
>>118
文の構造を読み取るときに「はべらせて」を「は」＋「べらせて」としちゃってない？
Don't you consider はべらせて as は + べらせて ?
もしそうなら、「はべる」を辞典で引くべし。
If you do, look はべる up in a dictionary.
「はべらせる」＝「はべら」＋「せる」だと思う（文法の授業で寝てたせいか自信がもてない）。
I think はべらせる = はべら + せる. (I'm not sure. Perhaps that's because I've slept in the grammer classes.)
俺にもしゃべらせて。
自分で調べらせて。
does 聞きますか make sense?
>>125
It makes sense but it probably doesn't mean what you want it to mean. If you want "Can you hear me?" that's 聞こえますか
聞きますか means "Do you hear ○○?".It's formal.
polite お聞きになられますか?
spoken 聞く？
samurai 聞かれるか？
ojousama お聞きになられるかしら？
tsundere いやよ！で、でもあんたがどうしてもっていうなら聞かせてやらないこともないんだからね!
>>127
tsundere wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
If guess i understood right anyway (> v<)
I was just looking at a yotsuba page, I just want to know if I have understood this correctly
「いつでも今日が、いちばん楽しい日
always today, best fun day
Today is always the funnest day.」
（Thats how i usually translate things)
So, does いつでも今日が、いちばん楽しい日 mean Today is always the funnest day？
Thanks!

I don't want to talk with anyone who insists "I have samurai spirit", seeeriously.

This is her web site.she is very popular now :D
>>60 Look into the "JET" program. It isn't very demanding.
>>1 stop saying your english is unskilled! It's way better than my japanese ^-^ we aren't expecting you to be perfect, although if you want to improve your english the best thing to do would be to use english forums :3
In japan, how do you know the game is LOCO ROCO? Since in hira/katakana, LO=RO..?
I used to have a japanese friend, but he stopped logging on so he could become a manga artist's apprentice (being taught while working for someone), if you know anyone like this could you say hi to them? ^^

I have a question.
why is every japanese show on TV based around food and if you win you get to eat food. It's always about food XD
>>158
You misused a particle is all. Its a very common mistake.
You said こんいちわ。
Correct spelling: こんにちは
Become a Japanese citizen
Can anyone help me know how to become a Citizen? im a perminant resident in US and Citizen in Mexico.
>>164
I guess they can get high viewing rate.
Japanese people are obsessed with food.
P.S.
Have you ever watched a TV program called "dochino ryouri show" ?
It's a typical and trashy program .
Are you planning to buy any of the new game systems?

Please can you explain me what is the difference between ごめんなさい and すみません ?
Who are you ?
I don't think you're a native English speaker.
because you made a mistake about how to use the verb "explain".
Although I'm Japanese,it's a very difficult question.
because I've never thought about such a thing until now.
Let me think it over and I'll definitely tell you something about it later.
In my opinion,......
I'm french so sorry for my poor english.
Hi, nice to talk with you.
Don't you think it's a good idea to try to examine the situations how both of them are used ?
First, when you ask me to do something,you can use both ごめんなさい and すみません.
To give an example,
ごめんなさい、そこのコップをとってくれますか
すみません、そこのコップをとってくれますか
Second,when you have to apologize to me,you can use both ごめんなさい and すみません.
To give an example,
ごめんなさい、もうしわけないです。
すみません、もうしわけないです。
Sorry,I'm a bit tired. So Let's call it a day.
I'll be back here tomorrow.
>>176
Oops,I didn't notice 179.
Enjoy learning Japanese ! good bye.
What are you doing now ?
How come you named yourself にゅう？
who is nevada-tan?
I have 2 questions:
do you have four seasons in your country?
can you use chopsticks?
nevada-tanなんてwikipediaに書いていいのかよ
不謹慎だし日本人は殺人者擁護してるみたいじゃないか
>Can I write in the nevada-tan entry of wikipedia?
Of course.
"Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit."
Wikipedia, the free 'encyclopedia' that any fucknut can edit...but most likely any edit you do will be reverted by the god of that particular article...I recommend human sacrifice to solve that problem.
>>189
I see nobody in the discussion page of the Nevada-tan entry, there isn't even a discussion page. I doubt it has a god overlooking it any more...
OTOH I see that the Japanese wiki version has been so often attacked it's now in locked mode:
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E9%95%B7%E5%B4%8E%E5%B0%8F6%E5%A5%B3%E5%85%90%E5%90%8C%E7%B4%9A%E7%94%9F%E6%AE%BA%E5%AE%B3%E4%BA%8B%E4%BB%B6
Now that one would be quite a task to write something in. :)
People are always trying to reveal her real name, which can still be found if you really look hard enough.
What's that?
I am a Japanese.
Please teach a popular presentation version in U.S.A.
あけましておめでとうございます。
do you have four seasons in your country?
yes,you can see sakura only in spring!
many american dont know it.
can you use chopsticks?
yes,everybody use it"hashi"
>>196
do you know what "sarcasm" is?
I have another one!
Did you know that type "A" blood is most common in Japan and Germany, while type "O" blood is most common in United States?
