So in certain cases urussai is also acceptable ? :?epigene said:You're welcome!
I think the sentence has a character missing:
俺はきさまがころしたいです、うるっさいバカ
If this is correct, it means:
I want to kill you. Shut up, stupid!
The line is probably from manga, which very often has lines written precisely the way it is pronounced. The small "tsu" is added in exaggerated expression of anger for a character (probably male and lacking in or discarding sense of propriety) in this case.Elizabeth said:So in certain cases urussai is also acceptable ? :?

This doesn't apply to standard Japanese speaking or writing.
the rain is the tears of people who don't show their sadness... I think.nova said:"雨はその悲しさを示さない人の涙である"
I'm wondering what you mean by "by the extent of its delicacy"? :?Glenn said:I believe here it expresss the extent of the condition, i.e. being delicate.
So you'd have something like "the figure of a world that is drawn by the extent of its delicacy." Well, that's my guess, anyway.
I'm sleeping and waking at odd hours these days... (old age!!)Glenn said:I think I meant that the more delicate the figure of the world, the more it's drawn. I don't know -- now that you bring it up I'm not sure what I meant either. I think I was headed in the right direction, though.I think your version is good (mostly because it makes sense ).
Anyway, you're up really early!
Ooh! That makes much more sense than anything that I could've come up withepigene said:I'm wondering what you mean by "by the extent of its delicacy"? :?
～なまでに is used to mean "reaching the point of...."
繊細なまでに + 描く can be translated literally as "drawing to the point of reaching delicateness."
Because of the awkwardness of the literal meaning, essential meaning should be translated into natural English.
Maybe: Image of the world drawn with extreme/exquisite delicacy. (Just an idea...)
Glenn said:"He just became (shachou)"
The most logical understanding to me would be Why (again)? It is (still) in the state of just having become (a new shachou) or just having been changed.As for the second, I can't understand what "mada natta bakari" is supposed to mean. I understand the words individually, but in that arrangement it is a bit confusing to me. Does anyone have any ideas?
Because recently I've heard of even single movie stars becoming mothers.Fuumei said:Well, I have one more before I stop bothering everyone for awhile.:
ee, mary-san wa dokushin da to omotte imashita ga. Saikin wa dokushin no eiga sta(movie star) mo okasan ni naru sou desu kara.
Ok, what i don't get here is the "desu kara". It's indicating "because", at least I think so, but it doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the sentence. I have it as "Because recently you are a single movie star, you're even going to become a mother I hear." What am I missing?

is about as literal as I can get. mono = one
Fuumei said:watashi no shiriai de tsuri no sukina hito ga ite, tsuri(fishing) ni iku to, itsumo tsutta(caught) sakana o kureru desu.
I can't seem to find an adequate reason for "de" being there. Can anyone point out why it's not "wa" but "de"? It's greatly appreciated.
