Hello. I was wondering if anyone would like to help me on my meager list of Japanese words (mostly from anime...). They are in Romaji form, and I just need to know if they're correct. I know this is not the best way to learn Japanese, but this is the only way I can past time until I can take a proper class. So if anyone responds to this thread, I will post my first set of ten, and then people can tell me if they are correct or not, and if not... how to fix it, I suppose. If anyone could help me, thank you in advance.

How many japanese threads do we have? Why don't you do yourself a favor and post in the other one(s).

Yes, but those other ones weren't the same purpose as mine...

Let's see...the topic title was "Studying Japanese", and you are trying to learn Japanese. Looks like a match to me.

Actually, the topic was "Studying Japanese" and the information inside of it was how and what is the best way to study Japanese. I'm looking for specific words here... I already am kind of "studying" Japanese.

Well, you already made the topic so we might as well use it for it's intended purpose. In the future, though, you could consider Nightmare's point if you wanted to.

For now, go ahead and post the list; I know some Japanese from studying it for 4 years, and if that fails then I've got a Japanese/English dictionary handy. =p

actually, this is kinda my fault cuz i told dzv she might as well post a new thread :P


and whatever happened to the "casual japanes words" thread?

Thank you to Pyramus and MuFFiNmAsTeR for their *kind* and logical words. O.o

All right, I'll start the list. I'll just do ten at a time...
1. Baka- Fool
2. Momo- Peach (I know there are different ways of saying this)
3. Mizu- Water
4. Hii - Fire; Sun
5. Inu - Dog
6. Katana - Sword
7. Demo... - But...
8. Shicashi... - However...
9. Nandimonai - Nothing
10. Betsini - It's nothing

First ten. Thanks again in advance.
