その拳(こぶし)をせいこいました。
That was a fist that hit you.
Is this correct?
can I leave out "anata" if its understood?
Thanks.


This means "that fist hit", apparently because I didn't use "anata".

But Its completely wrong. You know, I thought it would be an easy sentence to make.

今当たったものは拳だよ。

I have no intention of learning the second kanji, mono, or "dayo" as it is too adavanced.

What baffles me is how such sentences would be so hard, but ones such as let's eat is so easy:Tabemashou. (Let's eat.)

~masou mean "Let's do something."

I imagine benkyou (to study would be):
Benkyoumashou as well.
"Let's study!"

Why are some sentences so easy, but whenever I try to make a simple sentence it is so hard? Here's a prime example:

Yomuno ga suki.
I like to read.

I really have to normalize yomu for this? It doesn't seem simple. Why? Because yomu is a VERB, how would it make sense if you turn a verb into a noun? Then read wouldn't be read, it would be a person place or thing, right?

The new Nintendo DS is out!

Don't know the verb for "is out", but it would be "came out" Just now, so I'd use "ima" and the past tense of "to come out"

Atarashii is new.
 
"benkyou" is not a verb. So it can't become "benkyou mashou".

"dayo" is actually da yo. "da" the informal form of "desu". "yo" is kind of like a verbal exclamation point "!"

べんきょうするください。



How about this, "Please study."

This message is a joke.
この(教書 )きょうしょが冗談ください。

I don't know if this is the right kanji for message so please forgive me.

Is this correct? I'd use "kono" because it comes before a noun, right?

Also, I would use "ga" not "wo" because we are talkikng about the subject solely, (or the topic), and not other things.

Perhaps if I had a subject AND an object I would use "wo."

Shinbun wo kudasai.
although, here, "One newspaper please." I'm not sure why we'd use "wo" and not "ga"

I thought "wo" came after objects, and a message would be an object, right?

 
GCL, Sorry I really have to say it now, because I am getting a little bit annoyed by it, but why do you start a new Thread every hour? please look at this Japan language section, and see how many threads are yours!!! You can ask different questions in 1 thread too, you know that the people in here are kind enough to reply on your messages!!!! but please don't make so many threads for nothing, while you can do in the same thread!!!

No offence
 

I understand, but look what happneed in my "South parK" thread on this forum, people totally spammed it, and talked in japanese. THAT was very rude, so I felt Like I needed to make another.
 
I understand what you mean with that, but there is not being spammed in every thread is there? Please have a look how many threads you make, and if it is necessary to put up a new thread all the time? For the rest see it for yourself, i got nothing to say over it.
