Tomii, I had the same issue, in fact, I still cannot get IME to work on my Windows XP. I searched a couple of useful topics around the forum, and found about WaKan, which you might want to try: http://wakan.manga.cz/?page=download&lang=en#1

And without the kanji, it would be a shot in the dark to guess the precise meaning.
gomen.

Nihongo nara, "Shirimasu" to iu kotoba no tsukaikata ga eigo no to chotto chigaimasu node, ki ni siteoite kudasaine.Hmm, I thought shirimasen was "not know" in the sense of "I have not seen it/heard it before" whereas wakarimasen was "I don't understand" although I am aware that wakarimasen has several possible meanings depending on context. chigai masu?
Both can imply not knowing but shirimasen has the quite difference nuance of being used when you didn't know something that you had no reason/expectation to be familiar with or even any particular interest in finding out. For instance, if someone had asked whether I was aware of IME not being compatible with various browsers or operating systems I would have responded "shirimasendeshita" -- it's outside my area of expertise and a question I will gladly leave to others to delve into more fully.Gaijinian said:Atte imasu

Sirimasen is a bit different-- frist off, "I know" is "Shitte imasu." It can often be replaced by wakarimasu.
As Elizabeth said, ...no imi ga wakarimasen would work better.
Hope that helped

De gozaru (not used as much in modern Japanese), or 'de gozaimasu' is quite common of course. And humorous to need to humble yourself in the face of such domineering small cats....they do even look a bit kowai, don't they ?doinkies said:"De gozaru" tte...chotto...jidaigeki-rashii desu yo.

That's because Japanese is not designed to be read in romaji!Tomii515 said:idk why...but i find it easier to read hiragana, katakana, and kanji o.o
