ありがとうございました!@Loopy You know Japanese?!As a man who is learning the tongue myself I bow to Loopy-Senpai! :thumbsup:
Good luck with Japanese studies! Even though I finished learning the language at university, I am still learning new things now...and I still make mistakes. For example, I mistook a Chinese business man for Japanese and talked Japanese to him. Turns out he was just really good at speaking Jpanaese instead of English. :laugh:
Thinking: Wow, those Fox News people got it spectacularly wrong. :laugh:Birmingham is not 100% Islamic state, and is not full of religious police who beat up white people. That's not what I see when I go there to meet friends or shop.

Your most welcome Loopy-Senpai Although as you can read I understood what you wrote but I can't write "Your welcome" back. Well I could, but I don't know how to write the actual word lol. (I've only learned Hiragana, Katakana and I'm still on my Kanji lessons. I haven't learned how to actually say and write greetings yet. More of the "A, E, I, O, U's" of Japanese) However, I can ask you if you are well/how are you. Behold! (Plus I know your "Thank you" was all in Hiragana)
Loopy-Senpai 元気 ?
I mean I learned words in Japanese like 学生 "Student", and/or 中国人 "Chinese (Person) But I can't give a proper greetings?!
I bring shame to myself! :'("Oooh piece of Candy!"

Okay Internet, just because there are boring sections of the TLoU, does not mean the whole game is boring.

For 'you're welcome' in Japanese, it is どういたしまして which is douitashimashite
I say that a lot. Maybe I am too polite? For Japanese, it is best to learn the basics first, and learn it well. Kanji is very hard, well, it is for me. Sometimes, I forget how to write a word, or forget that a kanji can be read in another way. It leads to interesting mistakes for me.:laugh:
元気です:thumbsup: You will also see 気 Ki kanji in words like 'tenki', for weather.
You will get there in the end. So far, you have a good start. :wink:Learning a language can take a lot of practice; and don't be scared to make mistakes. What helped me most was staying in Japan with friends for a while as part of my studies.I mean I learned words in Japanese like 学生 "Student", and/or 中国人 "Chinese (Person) But I can't give a proper greetings?!

Glad to hear your fine good sir. I'm curious thou. In the word " 元気です " Why is the "U" not pronounced? Why is it "Gen Ki Des..." and not "Gen Ki DesU...?" Why do Japanese say "Des" and not "DesU?"

It depends on the person I guess. Sometimes I hear 'desuuu' but it is said more like a joke, or to exaggerate feelings. Usually, they say it so quickly that it does sound like 'des'.
I notice this also with 'moshi moshi' for answering the phone. Sometime it sounds like 'mosh mosh'. But maybe that is just my hearing? :tongue:

So I have this reviewer who's pretty cool and she's very quick to reply, but she likes to mention how all these different plot elements are improbable (and the fic's nowhere near finished, nor are any of the elements beginning to come together yet) and I'm just like:
Or, more accurately, "stop blowing logic-sized holes in my plot! D: "

Peter Dinklage's performance in Destiny is like Bungie bothered him with phone calls for a few days calling him Tyrion and saying his voice was sexy enough for their game. He then thought, "Alright, I'm gonna read your stupid video game script, but I'm gonna hate f*ck every single word and deliver jokes like I'm on a competitive autism team."
After phoning it in, he collected the check and walked out flipping off the employees who's goofy smiles were now, finally slowly fading.

You know, it helps quite a bit to speak Spanish when learning Japanese. Not only do you already understand that different languages have different structures but you also learn pronunciation with much more ease. That and you know what it takes to learn a 3rd language.

Just relax. I mean worst thing that may happen to you is that you won't get this job. Just relax and try to act naturally. Those who are you talking to are only people, so most important is to left good impression

@EA9Sol Best of luck! ^^ I'm sure you'll do fine.
CT: My, my...we were not the least bit productive yesterday, were we? >.> Okay, sure...we beefed up what we'd written for Chapter 11, adding an extra 200 words or so, but still...we were supposed to finish that memory sequence two days ago. What...what happened? D:
Phenex: You decided reading a book was more important than shedding light on my past--that's what happened!
Me: *Winces* Well, when you put it that way...I'm sorry, Phe. :frown: I'll make it up to you.
Phenex: *Smirks* It's not me you have to make it up to; apologize to Forneus and Gwen...they're the ones stuck seeing me in a kilt.
Me: Well, that's not entirely true; you do have breeches on, but... :laugh: Pfff-hahahaha! Still, you have a fair point, there. Okay, okay...I'll crack down, today. You have my word.
Welp, better grab another cup of coffee...
