Welcome to the forum!

Here's your first lesson: it's "Minasan". "Everyone" is "min'na", and you add a "san" but "min'nasan" gets contracted to "minasan".

Wakarimasuka?

wakatteiru na~, demo, chigautoomotteiru. i have never heard of such a contraction. besides, it's silly to correct the romanji spelling of japanese words since it is really not spelled either "minna" nor "min'na" I can't imput the hiragana to spell it for you, but i think your distinction is silly.

Have it your way. But you're the one who's gonna sound silly by saying "minnasan".

Trust me on this, it's "minasan". Ask Elizabeth or anyone else here.
