I think it's called 建築写真撮影.waynelorenz said:Interesting. I put "architecture photography" into the Google translation engine, and it spit out 建築の写真撮影. How close is that to accurate?
If your name is pronounced Lo-rens, your name will be written ロレンス. If you go by how your name is spelled (that is, lo-rentz), you write ロレンツ.How would I print "Wayne Lorentz" in katakana? The last name is pronounced "Loren" as in Sophia Loren plus an "sss" sound at the end.

HTH!!
Just so you know, automated translation software is generally terrible. Since what you entered was a relatively simple phrase, you got lucky with a result in which the only problem was an extraneous の, but if you try anything even slightly more complex, you're most likely just going to get complete and utter gibberish.waynelorentz said:Thanks so much. ロレンス is the correct pronunciation. What did Google give me for "architecture photography?" Was it even close?
よろしくおねがいします means 'pleased to meet you' if my memory of learning standard phrases isn't bailing out on me. また, I think, comes from the verb 待つ, to wait, but a basic sentence also is また ね, 'I'll see you again/talk to you again'. Aka: 'see you later'. する is 'to do', ね can belong to また but that's not necessary. It's a sentence ender. Difficult to translate, I think, so my translation of 'okay?' will probably suck.Ishiguro San said:Hey everyone. I've been talking with a guy over in Japan and he's started to help me with learning japanese. So far, I've learned only hiragana and I asked him to write me something. Here's what he wrote:
よろしくおねがいします
またmailするね
I tried to figure this out on my own with some online translators, but came up with a lot of stuff that doesn't make sense.
Like, よろしく means: in addition. But I'm told otherwise that it means pleased to meet you. And おねがいします could either mean, please or can you. And I've found nothing for また and するね. Any help?
(on a school computer so I'm sorry that I can't put this in kana nor look up the exact meaning of atsu-atsu, but considering it means 'lovey-dovey: )Kama said:Is it correct to say" nante atsu-atsu no futari" meaning "what a lovey-dovey pair?"
Yes, it is. It's an exclamation.Is it correct to say" nante atsu-atsu no futari" meaning "what a lovey-dovey pair?"
The sentence is actually a question in which the speaker is seeking agreement of the listener. (They're so lovey-dovey, aren't they?)I think 'Futari wa atsu-atsu desu yo ne' would be stronger
Ah, sorry ^^; I haven't really learnt much of the use of nante yet. Once again my assuming of a certain meaning's wrong =_=epigene said:Yes, it is. It's an exclamation.

Something like 'Pleased to meet you. Talk to you later through mail, okay?'
'Yoroshiku onegaishimasu' in this case is probably more like "Please be considerate/treat me well," or "my best regards." It's used as a greeting in a variety of situations -- not only with people you're meeting for the first time.Damicci said:I think that's about right. Dunno for sure. but I have used また あいましょう。 with friends meaning Let's meet again. また basically meaning again.
I would translate it to "Pleased to meet you. it's okay to do email again right?"
ね representing asking for agreement in the previous statement.
私がばか人。

what is that word you used for vocabulary? I can't read the first kanji, I just recognize go ご 語
is ことば not "words/vocabulary"?
