Liz-chan, saiko des ka..?

 

[SkaKid0911]

Now im bad at japanese but from what i understand des and des ka, those would be wrong. I believe it is prounounced like that (u's are dropped) but i think when you write it you must right desu and desu ka. If i am wrong then please correct me but from what I have learned that is how you must write it.

 

[Eisuke]

Yes desu is the correct way of writing desu in romanji.

 

[TZed9]

Hai Eisuke san. Saiko desu ka? Saiko desu ka?

 

[SkaKid0911]

Saiko desu ka?
最古ですか？
さいこですか？

What does that mean? I'm not sure but does it mean: Great? Isn't it? or something close to that?

 

[TZed9]

I belive what i said was 'Is it great?'.

Saiko desu ... 'yes it's great'

or

Saite desu ... 'It is not great'

Would be appropriate responses.... How am I doing?

 

[Eisuke]

This 最古 means the oldest.

Saikou is also "the highest, greatest, supreme" with another kanji, though. For something truly spectacular like "saikou no hanabi," the greatest fireworks.

 

[SkaKid0911]

Im confused, so Saiko desu ka is just like 'how is it going'?

 

[Elizabeth]

No, saiko is an adjective. How are you doing is just Genki? or Dou desuka? or something. I'm confused too. What is the subject here?

need more helps with word translation to english...
-Uso zenbu oikakushiteru
-wasureta furishite
-kaete kuru kara
-sameta senaka misete

 

[SkaKid0911]

hmmm the only thing in there i can figure out is oikakushiteru. I don't know what that means but i think its a form of oikaku and i think a more simpler for would be oikakumasu but that always confused me. Oh well i looked up oikaku and found oikakeru. Maybe thats it which in that case i think oikakushiteru would be chasing or persuing

 

[Elizabeth]

No, it is 追い隠している (running and hiding, chasing down), nothing to worry about since it doesn't exist outside this song. Uso = lies, zenbu = all

Wasureta = forgotten, 振りして = could mean a lot of things
変えて来るから = Because it changes (?)

sameta = awoke (most likely) ; senaka = back (body) ; misete = show me

 

[Eve]

what does furishite means?

 

[SkaKid0911]

Oh well at least i was on the right track with chasing I knew I was gonna get it wrong but the fact that i at least had close to the basic idea makes me happy lol

 

[bakadesu]

~「振りする」-> 「振りして」?

Shake, shaking...I think

 

[Eve]

Are you sure...lol
