Need a word or phrase translated?

理科に戻って山田は、掃除道具をしまおうとして、となりの実験室へのドアに手をかけた。この理科実験室というのは、理科の教材をおいてある部屋で、ドアは理教室へ出るのと、廊下へ通じるのと二つある.
What would be an accurate understanding of this? Is it describing the hallway as splitting into two? I dont really understand, is it split into two corridors so-to speak?

ドアは理教室へ出るのと、廊下へ通じるのと二つある.
ドアは二つある. 「理教室へ出るの」と「廊下へ通じるの」

thank you, I should have read more carefully

The "and" と sometimes appears after each item and not merely as a connector. Don't overlook that the の turns each phrase into a single noun.

What is 「4本束ねられた」 means in the following sentece, I can guess what is 束ねられた means but what exactly does the speaker means by 4本, glass?
「あそこが、ボナベンチャー＝ホテル」
南西の方角で陽光を跳ね返している、4本束ねられたガラスの塔を指差して示す。

本 is being used a counter. 4 glasses stacked together.

What is bundled is ガラスの塔(four glass towers). Each hotel tower is made of frames and large windows, therefore looks like as if being made of glass, and the four towers stand very closely therefore look like as if being bundled.

Oh, so that's what was meant by 4本. As always, thank you.

Can anyone explain to me what the facebook emote thingy that has a bunny hapily flowing down a river or some stream of water is all about? It says よのなかにながされません. It doesent really make sense to me.

hello.. i need this translated into English.
thanks in advance for your help

nekojita · 13 Jan 2015

@osama basically, BMW won't be held responsible for anything if you use/install unofficial parts or accessories.

@letianchen Not familiar with it, but some sort of connection to 世の中の流れ presumably. "(I) won't get carried away" (by surrounding influences/trends).

It is not a big image, but I noticed this in a drawing, anyone who can make a guess of what it is?

Hi all,

Please could you help me identify what is writen on this plaque?

Thanks

Looks to me like 福星號, maybe the name of a Chinese ship?

Majestic · 15 Jan 2015

Just to clarify; these are the characters for fortune/luck (福) star (星) and it looks like the old kanji for number/unit (號) which is used in Chinese ship's names. Could be a nameplate from one of the Star Ferry ships, as they have names similar to this. It wouldn't be a Japanese ship name as Japan uses a different naming convention.

Could anyone confirm the this sentence? I'm not sure about the meaning.

「俺にとっても聞かなかったことにできる話じゃない。」
Is it something like - "It's not a conversation I can ignore either", more lit. "for/to me too, it's not a conversation that I can do (like) I didn't hear"?
First time I see something like 聞かなかったことにできる, but it doesn't appear to be a set phrase.

I would appreciate any help,
Thanks.

Toritoribe · 16 Jan 2015

Have you ever seen なかったことにする, meaning "to forget / pretend it never happened / act as if it never happened"? 聞かなかったことにできる can be considered the potential form of it.

hmm seems odd that the picture is a bunny flowing on a stream though.

A stream....not 世の中

He's saying he will follow his own path and be carried along with/by the flow of the masses.

Imagine the bunny singing "My Way".

Still seems odd since Facebook is all about joining the herd.

Yeah...I was a bit "slow" yesterday. I kept searching for ことにできる rather than する.
Thanks for the help.

Hi I want to know what this sentence(s) mean -or if I'm right about the meaning-:

A: おい筒井が学校に来たってマジか
A: Oi, is it true that Tsutsui came back to school?
B: きょねんオレ達が少しイジっただけど学校に来なくなったもんな
B: Last year we (ijitta?) a little but he no longer come to the school (monna?).

What イジった means? I searched the google but the closest meaning I can found is from "いじる = to touch, to tamper with". Or maybe it's kana for bully = ijime?

And also, what does -もんな mean? I found from a site that it was an emphasis used for boasting. But can anyone explain it further / give some example?

Thank you in advance
