Yes. But I would also use 漢字三文字 in some cases.Counter for Kanji?
Or do you just say 三つの漢字？
Flying horse that came swooping down (Pegasus !)What's this translate to in English?
舞い降りた天馬（ペガシス）!
I know （ペガシス） is (Pegasus)
And this
俺の記憶は俺だけの現実だ
My memories are reality that only belongs to me <--- did I translate this right?
久しぶりだにあったね。Uh, as I wrote in my previous post, that "psychological involvement" wouldn't be from いく/くる themselves but from the context "いく for future," "くる for past."
このまま人口が増えていったら大変ですよね。( 人口増加はすでに始まっており、話者もそれを危惧している。)
「は」「が」以前に「大変」を使ってる時点でかなり主観的になるでしょうね。個人的な印象を語っているわけだから。久しぶりだにあったね。
１．この町の人口はますます増えていくと大変だ。 （もう少し客観的予測？）
２．このまま人口が増えていったら大変ですよね。 （ちょっと主観的になる？）
この町の人口がこのまま増えていくと大変だ。
↑ 客観的予測 か 主観的気持ち（感情表現）を表すことについて、 １と２というような文章の中のどこが、相違点なのか。。。
多分、問題なのは、「いく」と「くる」じゃなくて「人口が」「人口は」の違いじゃないかな。
もちろん、「大変だねというような表現」を入れるのは、「話者の感情を込め」にも相当するね。
Kaze ga anata no senaka wo yasashiku osu you ni (oshite kuremasu you ni?)The other is "May the wind be at your back and the sun upon your face"
Any help is much appreciated.
First one is "Often outnumbered, never outgunned" and I asked a friend of a friend who translated it as "yoku kazu sakkari, kenju sakkarinai" but told me to get it checked.
Kaze ga anata no senaka wo yasashiku osu you ni (oshite kuremasu you ni?)
Taiyou ga anata no kao wo atatakaku terasu you ni (terashite kuremasu you ni?)
Yoku tazei ni buzei ? For often outnumbered .... no idea on "outgunned"
And sakkari /? Sakari ? huh?
The first is may the wind...Thanks for the help Elizabeth
Whats the difference between the two sentences for "may the wind..."?
Is one more formal? The phrase is an old family saying which we say as a toast so it's a formal thing I guess.
And whats the part in brackets?
Sorry for my total ignorance in this, I really do appreciate the help.
P.S It could have been sukkari/sukkarinai if thats any different.
Japanese verb conjugation - Wikipedia走れ - run!
right?
I've noticed/been hearing people saying stuff like that (making -u into -e in order to make it command).
Is this right? and if so, when would one use this? is this slang, or informal, or...?
And about would you do it for verbs like 食べる？「食べれ！」？Ａｎｄ する Ａｎｄ 来る？
Thanks
そうですね。「走れ 、食べるなど」は言い方によって怒っているように聞こえるでしょう。 「走れよ、食べろよ」はもう少し優しい感じだと思うけど？Japanese verb conjugation - Wikipedia
食べる(ichidan verb) → 食べろ/食べよ
You can see the answer for the irregular verbs 来る/する on the wiki page above.;-)
It's not slang, but sounds far more rude than something like 食べなさい. Some other usages are on the wiki page, too.
It totally depends on the way how to say it, the situation where it's used, the relationship between the speaker and the listener,,, thus, the context itself.そうですね。「走れ 、食べるなど」は言い方によって怒っているように聞こえるでしょう。 「走れよ、食べろよ」はもう少し優しい感じだと思うけど？
That's true, but at least よ can also be a strategy, along with tone of voice etc. to soften the impact. It's too late and I'm too tired to hear about how men make it sound worse. Maybe tomorrow.It totally depends on the way how to say it, the situation where it's used, the relationship between the speaker and the listener,,, thus, the context itself.
時間は気にしなくていいから、ゆっくり食べろ。
ぐずぐずしてないでさっさと来いよ！
1.) 一体 (いったい） is listed in my dictionary as a phrase meaning "What the heck," "What the devil," "What on earth," etc. Is it a widely used expression?
２.) How often is the Kanji for だれ used? I looked it up and it said it's not even 常用. I've seen it in books more often as Kanji than Hiragana, but I didn't realize it wasnt' even 常用.
3.) Is there an onomatopoeic expression for something like "ta-da!" that a presenter might use when unveiling something?
誰 is planned to be added in the new 常用漢字.２.) How often is the Kanji for だれ used? I looked it up and it said it's not even 常用. I've seen it in books more often as Kanji than Hiragana, but I didn't realize it wasnt' even 常用.
人に聞く前にまず 自分でやってみなさい。:emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:How does one say, "I'm allowed to........"
Like "I'm allowed to go to store." or "My mom allowed me to go to the store" or "I'm not allowed to go to the store." like that
