Ok, so I have a few questions that I need to be cleared up about Japanese:
1. I read in a book that arigato means thank you, and arigato gozaimasu means thank you very much. However, in an epsisode of Samurai Champloo, someone says arigato and it the subtitle said "Thank you!". But in Battle Royale when Kitano says "arigato gozaimasu" the subititle says "Thank you!" Why is this?
2. When I was watching Battle Royale, I paused the movie after someone said something. I memorized what they said in Japanese. I typed the subtitle in a Japanese - English translator, and I pasted the Japanese text into a program that reads Japanese out loud. They sound way different!! Why is this?
3. I just forgot my 3rd question...
Thank you all for your help!
