News for my friends

Oshirase desu.

The all of you who were watching this blog for a long time.
nagai aida kono burogu wo mite ite kureta minasan

This blog is a thing for me to learn English.
kono burogu ha bokuga eigo wo oboeru tameno mono deshita.

And this blog was a thing of the all of you who　is studying Japanese.
soshite kono burogu ha nihongo wo benkyou shiteiru minasan no burogu deshita.

I'm sorry that I could not update it after all, because I could not find the good content to write.
nakanaka kaku naiyou ga mitsukaranakute kekkyoku koushin ga dekinakute gomennasai.

So I decide to give up having this blog once.
nanode, kono burogu ha ichido yamerukotoni simashita.

The blog that my friend introduced the life of Japan by three national languages (Japanese, English, and French) was started.
boku no tomodachi ga nihongo to eigo to furansugo no mittsu no kotoba de nihon no seikatsu wo shoukai suruburogu wo hajimemashita.

If many people go visit that site, I'll be happy, too.
takusan no hito ni sono saito ni ittemoraeruto, boku mo ureshiidesu.

kono burogu no mirai

I plan to open the site 'Understandable Japanese' bringing opinions of the people who got acquainted by this blog together one of these days.
kono burogu de shiriatta hitotachi no iken wo matomete, chikaiuchi ni "wakaru nihongo"saito wo open suru yotei desu.

It is the Japanese learning website of a more detailed contents which it cannot learn from "minnano nihongo".
"minna no nihongo" nadodeha oboerarenai, gakushuu naiyou no nihongo gakushuu webusaito desu.

I comment on the point that all of you are troubled with intensively, such as "a way of thinking of Japanese time" or "the usage of a Japanese honorific"
watashi ha minasan ga nayandeiru nihongo no "jikan no kanngaekata" ya "keigo no tsukaikata" wo shuuchuutekini kaisetsu shimasu.

I will try to explain the difference like the following example, on that website.
bokuha shita no bun no youna chigai wo sono webusaito de kaisetsu shitai desu.

I did not eat nattou.
nattou wo tabetenai

I am not eating nattou.
nattou wo tabeteinai

I have never eaten nattou.
nattou wo tabetakotoganai


boshuu shimasu.

I am going to open a site experimentally before opening that website.
boku ha webusaito wo opun suru mae ni jikkenntekini webusaito wo opun suru tsumori desu.

In these sites, I accept various questions about the Japanese and want to answer as much as possible.
kono saito no naka de iroiro na nihongo no shitsumon wo uketsukete dekiru kagiri kotaetai desu.

Also, I want you to check this Japanese learning website and report it if there is anything wrong.
mata, kono saito ni nanika mondaiga areba chiekku shite renraku shitehoshii desu.

The cooperating person please contact to this address by E-mail.

concept was good but not fulfilled

I have been checking here every week and you have not added any updates or posts.
The idea or concept of this blog was good unfortunately you did not continue with the plan so for me it has become null & void..There is no point in continually checking when there are no changes ... I wish you much sucess ang good luck with your future endeavours hopefully you will find someone you are comfortable exchanging stories & converstaions with here on your Blog

long time no talk

Hello My friend

 

yes it has been a long time since we both wrote on this site

 

Over the past month I have been very busy with my work as you know I travelled to Melbourne for work. Yes I had a great time work was not so difficult & I got to go out with other workers socially which was great

 

I also took some lovely photos of Melbourne but unfortunately I have deleted them from my phone so I am hopeing I have some at work on my PC then I can post them 

 

So for now I will show you some photos of near & around my work last week in Perth.

 

The weather at this time of the year is beginning to become cold.

 

Oh & so I have dyed my hair dark lol yep I dye my hair dark in the winter mmmm I dont know why maybe I am a little crazy but by summer it will be blonde again which I prefer ..lol

 

Oh & my Japanese question is how come there are so many words which can be written yet when I look for translation it is not in any books such as Tanoshimi ni shitemasu this is not in my dictionaries & I have three lol

 

but when I asked another Japanese person what does this mean they can tell me ...arrrhh I want to be able to know this answer from my books or by looking on line ...lol

 

Do you know a web or url that will allow me to translate Romanji to English & English to Romanji

in SENTENCES I cant find any which will do sentences...

 

Anyway this is all from me tonight I will post again very soon 

 

Tanoshimi ni shitemasu

to speaking with you soon

Oyasumi nasai

Sweet dreams to you 

dean

Sorry, Dean.

Exactly, I got call yesterday, and said to you "please just wait".
"tashikani boku wa kinou denwa ga kakari-mashita, soshite anata-ni chitto matte-kudaai to iimashita"

That call was from my cousin.
"denwa wa boku-no itoko kara deshita"

And he had very big trouble and worry.
"kare wa totemo ookina toraburu(trouble) de nayande imashita"

I couldn't say to him "I'm just busy now, let's take a talk tomorrow about your worry".

My favorite map

Hi sleeping Dean.

have you good time?


I'm very glad you took to my favorite restaurant.
"boku no suki-na resutoran wo kiniitte moraete ureshii-desu."

My room is in Meguro-ku Tokyo, and that restaurant is in Hayama Kanagawa.
"boku-no heya-wa tokyo-no meguro-ku de sono resutoran wa Hayama(Kanagawa)desu."

If we go to Hayama Kanagawa from Meguro-ku by train, it's too far (maybe use a few hours).
"moshi meguro kara hayama made densya(train) de ikunara, sore-wa chotto tooi desu. tabun 2,3jikan kakari-masu"

but if we go by car, we can get fun and nice drive by just distance, I think. (of course after the drive we can get tasty food. lol)
"dakedo moshi kuruma-de iku-nara doraibu(drive)-ni choudo ii kyori-de tanoshii doraibu(drive)-ga dekiru-to omoi-masu, (mochiron drive-no ato-niwa oishii syokuji tuki-desu lol)"


I'll try google map past to here.
"chizu-wo hatte mimasu"

I hope someday you come to Japan, and want to go to the restaurant with you.

Konichi wa Masaki

Just a short message to say thankyou for showing me this resturant by the ocean it looks beautiful I would love to visit there oneday & yep the food looks extra yummy...

My Favourite place in Japan is the grassed area near Land Mark Tower

Hi, thanks your post.

"mutsukashii shitsumon wo shimasu ne"

boku no sukina basyo?
um..,
I haven't so many favorite place.
"boku wa sonnani takusan sukina basyo wa nai-desu"


OH! I got!,
"aa... atta"


The first, I love Tottori city, there is small town in west side of Japan, and I was born there and grew up until 18 year old.

"ichiban wa Tottori no machi desu, soko wa nishi-nihon ni aru chiisana machi de, boku ga umare-te 18sai made sodachi mashita"


And the 2nd, I love Taiwan, I think there is very amusing town. people are very kindly and gentle.
"soshite niban-me" Taiwan ga suki desu. totemo omoshiroi tokoro-de, minna totemo shinsetu-de yasashii desu.


Especially favorite reason is every food are very tasty, goood!.
"okuni suki-na riyuu-wa tabemono-ga zennbu oishii kara desu"


Have you ever been to Taiwan?
Ah...Sorry, Taiwan is not Japan...
"Taiwan ni itta koto-ha arimasu-ka?"
"A...Taiwan-wa nihon ja nakatta...gomen"

reset the 2nd, I like sea views, so I like "Shonan" area, especially "Hayama-marina" is best,
there is small and tasty restaurant. I like the grilled sandwich in there. lol
"aratamete 2banme, boku-wa umi-no keshiki-ga suki-nanode Shonan-ga suki-desu"
"Toku-ni Hayama-marina ga daisuki-desu"
"sokoni-wa chiisakute oishii resutoran(restaurant)-ga atte, boku-wa soko-no Hot-sand(grilled sandwich)-ga suki-desu"


below is that restaurant's web.
"shita-wa sono resutoran no web-desu"
http://www.chaya.co.jp/shop/lamaree/home.html


And I'll answer to other questions in next time.
