Need a word or phrase translated?

could tsukkomeyo! mean "Your too into it!" :? This seems good based on the context im reading it, Im looking at the definitions I see "to plunge into; to go into deeply" but im not sure if this is with reference to a sword or something or to plunge into someones mind :?
 
つっこむ is a slangy expression, meaning "to criticize". This is from a straight man's reaction to a funny or strange words/action of a funny man in stand-up comedies.
 
Maybye you can explain the use at 1:30?



Still doe-sent really make sense, not sure how "to criticize" fits in there. btw the つっこむ=突っ込む? right.
 
He was playing the ボケ role, which is supposed to be followed by the ツッコミ, but nobody followed, so he felt that they felt it was 寒い, which means that the joke wasn't funny. That's why he said 突っ込めよ!
 
The black-hair boy said 俺がかっこいいから見惚れちゃうってやつじゃねーの?, but he actually didn't think so, of course. That's a joke, but nevertheless the other two said nothing about it. He expected they would say あほか, そんなわけあるか or something along the line to his words, so he said つっこめよ.

Yes, for the kanji.

EDIT:
Ooops, I didn't notice Glenn-san is on-line now. :)
 
Hi,
ぎょっと身の引ける思いする

The meaning when translated literally is "to pull one's disorganized thoughts together", but I take it the meaning is closer to "regaining one's composure", and 気を取り直す would be closer to "pulling one's thoughts together" in meaning. Can someone confirm this?

Thanks.
 
I am amazed at the utility of this forum - you've helped me out before so thanks once again! Rather than be a bore I'll actually post the pictures if anyone is interested, and also for clarity. I feared that some of them might have been a bit worse for wear.
I found that the title of the left one is 福清 市川團十郎[Fukukiyo Ichikawa Danjūrō]. (Fukukiyo is the name of the role.)

I think the writer mixed up 気が引ける and 身を退く, 身が引き締まる or something. 身の引ける思い doesn't make much sense. Judging from ぎょっと, probably it's trying to mean "to shrink back because of fear/surprise" or along the line.
 
If I wanted to know how to say that I wanted to be dropped off... for example, "please drive straight, park on the left and drop me off." it would be, "まっすぐに行って、左に止めておろしてください。"?
 
いい加減にせんか, what does this mean? is the sen from しないといけない? so is the ka part a question?

That's right.

いい加減にせんか = いい加減にしないか = いい加減にしろ

~ないか is for a strong order here, as similar to this case (negative + negative = affirmative).
 
部屋から張り出した露台は小庭園にもなっている。

I'm a bit intrigued as to why なる is used in place of ある here. Does usage of なる imply the garden is a 'part' of the room?
Thanks!

Surely this sentence means 'The balcony that extended from the room also served as a small garden.'
If the verb was ある then it would say 'The balcony that extended from the room also had a small garden.'

Yeah, ~になる can mean "to be used as~".
e.g.
段ボール箱は机にもなる。
A cardboard box can also be used as a table.
 
Hello everyone!

I've been a bit unsure about this for a while and was just wondering if anyone could help me...

the phrase, あかんやつや

To my understanding...is something along the lines of 'a bad guy'? I think it's Kansaiben but...I always get stuck translating that accent into English. The full phrase was: あかんやつや, それはあかん

if anyone could help it'd be much appreciated~! :)
 
Everything is completely unclear; what the context is, how many people there are in the place, who the speaker of each line is,,,. All I can answer is ツ絶?樞?堋オ means "recommendation" and yes for 窶冦窶堙ァ窶堙ア.
 
:emoji_blush:I see, I just wrote as I listened so thats probably why.23:20 is pretty much where it starts from what I wrote

Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai: Megami-hen Episode 7
 
He said that she didn't go along with his act (pretending his illness has suddenly become serious) by 乗ってこない.
 
Not quite. 乗る has a positive nuance that she goes along with his act voluntarily, not the negative one which "to fall for a trick" has. 引っかからない is used for that case.
 
Thank you :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Here's two more:

Father rejects a proposal of a guy trying to date his daughter

Guy says:

お願いしますこればっかり引くわけにはいかないんですよ

What does hiku mean here?

Also later when talking to a friend about this

こっちひとすら頼むしかない感じだわ

I'm not really sure about this I know sura = sae, but this whole phrase doesn't really ring a bell for me.
 
こればっかり引くわけにはいかないんですよ

引く: to withdraw


こっちすら頼むしかない
 
by "withdraw" you mean as in "back down" or "give up" kind of
"With just this I can't back down (from dating her)"

2. I can't understand ひたすら
