Chat in English (英語で雑談) part 202
http://lavender.5ch.net/test/read.cgi/english/1502872213/
Hey!!! All you NEETs, nerds, YouTube link spammers, pedophiles, neo-Nazis,
Yukorin enthusiasts, Nanako SOS admirers, Part-Time-Preachers,
Diplomats' spoiled sons, losers who can't remember Kanji characters,
Big-boobs fans, Weeaboo from around the world, learners of Japanese
who are too lazy to update their Japanese blogs very often, cunning
linguists, stupid fan girls of Johnny's Boys, Touhou pirates, and
that electrical super-gay who suffers from mental disease - This is your thread!
Let's hope the Internet-addicted housewife will come back soon!
We all wish for permanent world peace! Let’s have Ayatana and chat Ayataka is good, but Ooi ocha is the best. So you don’t have to worry worry. I want to protect you >>1
thank you for creating the new thread.
when i drink ayataka, i have a sore throat somehow.
i have taken a liking to oolong tea and tried several brands recently. Have you tried transparent milk tea? It tastes deceptively good. I drink it every single day. "transparent" milk tea??
i have never heard of that.
it sounds like pessimistic optimist or bitter sweetness, as i assume milk is always white or off white. >>7
You are literally living in 80s or what? It’s in trend!! >>7
https://i.imgur.com/X0Mowqh.jpg
This one. You can find it everywhere in japan. This kind of seasoned clear drink is getting popular in Japan. I like irohasu ones. >>8-9
epic...
this is my first time to see the product and i think i must give it a try.
about 15 years ago, suntory researched and developed blue rose which people had thought was impossible to exist.
they made it again! >>1
Thanks.
It's been a week or so since the name 2chan was changed to 5chan.
Rumor has it that it's to avoid a lawsuit risk, but from the perspective of brand
loyalty, that was in my opinion, the worst decision. The name 2chan has special
place in us, what's called "2channelers." 2chan have underground feel to it.
It's not, hey just change 2 to 5, then everything will be all right kind of thing.
It's said 2chan is getting less populated because of the rise of other social media's popularity.
The name change could spur the trend even more. Are we 5channelers now?
Heck, NO. That clear tea is interesting. I've never seen that, but I'll keep an eye out. Does it taste like normal
milk tea? i heard someone picked a remon tea thinking that it should be a milk tea.
due to the transparency, that seems unpredictable. >>14
I think if you don't look at the label, you can't blame anyone else. >>12
I feel only because of ”2” channel., this place could shine with the atmosphere of freedom and chaos
like a jungle while being hated by the Japanese public
The 5 channel looks to be for the birds. What a butt! A lady standing in front of me on the train has amazing butt. Can I take a photo? I want to get a bubble ass. So I trained my ass a lot recently. it can create everything nowadays, despite transparent milk tea. The day that I become the invisible man of the milk tea flavor is close. >>21
hahaha, I just wanted to say it, it doesn't have any meaning. >>20
i can emit transparent milk from my dick! I deicided that I won’t eat carbos like rice, breads, noodles this month to lose some weight. I’m becoming a pig! >>26
I think you shouldn't take fat rather than carbohydrate. >>27
Carbos and fat are equally important, but getting rid of carbos in my diet is the easiest, me thinks >>27
I'm not certain about it but, when writing English,
isn't " I don't think you should take..." better than "I think you shouldn't take..."? >>29
oh, thank you for your advice. japanese teenagers seem to tend to buy iphone even when they actually want to buy a different smartphone.
"peer pressure" is what made them do so and i think that it is a bit ridiculous.
if they continue to live their daily lives in such a way in various aspects,
they will eventually be deprived of their natural ability to decide which way to go in future.
they should get what they want to get. Speaking of which, it’s kinda crazy to see high schoolers using such expensive phones like iPhone is over 100,000 yen. They use them like no big deal. 100K is bigger than my annual total of monthly allowances from my parents when I was a HS student.
Damn. that is like my weight hehehe >>17
Just enjoy it. If you take a picture, you're a creep.
>>29
In >>27, it would probably be better to write, "I think you should avoid fat rather than carbs."
The two ways you wrote it, can actually both be used in English, and they have slightly different meanings.
I don't think either one is really right for this situation though.
If you say "I don't think you should x" then you're saying "x" isn't a good idea, but you aren't giving
another suggestion and this isn't a strongly worded statement.
If you say, "I think you shouldn't y" then you are saying that doing "y" is a bad idea, and they should avoid it.
That's a stronger statement, but the difference is subtle. Like the difference between "bad" and "not good."
Here's an example: I don't like sweet potatoes. I don't DISLIKE them, but I don't really enjoy them. Occasionally
I eat sweet potatoes but I don't request them to be made. I don't hate sweet potatoes, but I don't like them either. >>35
when I thought it over, the meanings of the two was a little different, as you said.
A. I think you shouldn't take fat rather than carbohydrate. あなたは炭水化物よりもむしろ脂肪を摂るべきではないと私は思う
B. I don't think you should take far rather than carbohydrate. あなたは炭水化物よりもむしろ脂肪を摂るべきであると私は思わない
In this case, A is rather right after all, ということですよね?
I have thought it was the wrong sentence that is like "I think that you + verb + not " instead "I don't think that you + verb"
but it's on a case by case basis, なんですね。
これで意味通じるかなあxD >>35
it's a very interesting.
>>36
I should have used 'avoid' >>37
Of course, it would be the best,
if about making a choice between A and B, I rewrited >>38
Of course, it would be the best,
I mean if making a choice between A and B, People I hate #1
People who don't answer questions directely and try to make you feel dumb ass.
-At airport-
Me "Excuse me sir, which line should I stand for imigration?"
Sucker " What does the sign say?" >>27
Iose weight by such ways of pressing unnaturally is abnormal. >>41
Which airport?
I've heard that in some Europian countries there are many groups of thieves
who at first speak to a tourist, pretening to be just a man in the street,
while another member of the gang snatches the tourist's bag.
So, the sucker just maybe waryed of fraud. >>1
Thanks, for your work!
I'm getting hugry, but I've not eaten yet.
Then I ask everyone who are here.
What do you want to eat for dinner? >>46
What's kind of meat do you want? >>47
I prefer chicken breast strips. Which person are you? Lol or haha I don't know how to cook any horse meat, I've never eaten the meat.
>>49
Though I heard first time about the meal, it sounds nice.
Tell me how to cook the meal,please. >>51
I recommend steamed with Japanese sake. Fuck are you doing fool?
Get out of here fool?
Im gonna smash you fool?
Omisoshiru no otoufu?
Oosakafu?
Kyotofu?
Toukyoto chofu? tonight is 13th friday so i want to have sex! >>36-39
I think you guys understand the difference in those sentences. And it's true that "avoid" would
have been better for the original sentence.
>>45
Last night for dinner, I made pork chops with corn and apple sauce on the side. It was very good. >>56
That pig was already dead. Isn't it better for me to eat him, than for the meat to go to waste? pork chop sounds goood!
lately i eat half priced dish (´・ω・`)
https://i.imgur.com/lXeik1W.jpg >>58
I like to rub it with salt and pepper on both sides, and then cook it for a few minutes per side
in a really really hot skillet. I like to use my cast iron pan because aluminum ones don't get hot enough.
Your food looks pretty tasty too, but the egg yolk looks a little weird.
I have that meal probably once a week or so. The store marks down their bento stuff around the same
time I get off work. People I hate #1 part2
People who don't answer your questions directely and try to make you feel like dumb ass.
Me "Excuse me sir, does this bus stop at gate 30F?
Sucker "This bus stops from 30A through 30J"
Me "So,, does this bus stop at 30F?"
Sucker "This bus stops from 30A through 30J" It’s raining outside. I can’t be bothered to go out. I’m from Taiwan, I’m learning Japanese. I just take a look 4ch, look like fun
I dont know how to use 4ch very much,
but I am interested in the thread "what euros think of each other":)
it's a delicate matter, though
I want to try Asian version of it.(^^ >>62
Hi, こうさん!
江さん and 愛ちゃん had a baby.
I guess the baby must be so so adorable What word starts with "f" and ends with "uck"? I just noticed that I dont know which country is where on the map of Europe
Do Japanese here know? Of course. Even pre-schooler in Japan know that. If you don’t, you are one of those baka Americans. Rumor has it that so many of them can’t locate New York lol >>68
I'm Japanese, not american.(* >ω<)=3 プー I guess most Japanese dont know where is Germany or France on the map accurately
They might know just only GB If that’s the case, they are jsut ignorant as fuck >>62
so i will tell you one japanese phrase.
when you leave your office before someone, you should tell him/her like
"saki datsu fuko wo oyurusi kudasi"
(先立つ不幸をお許しください).
you can covey proper impression! >>70
And maybe Italy too.
There is very easy too see. People who somehow write in Japanese? a kind of coffee drink called "goth latte" seems to be hot selling in the uk and australia.
this contains activated charcoal which is very good for human health as it gets rid of toxic substance from human body.
the color combination of black & white also looks attractive for me.
i can't wait for this product to be rolled out in japan too. I just deleted all Taylor Swift’s songs on my phone because I found out she is a fucking republican! Why is that the wild fire is happening in California? Wish that would happen in Texas and all repunlicans die in a freaking fire!!!! >>80
Why do you hate republicans in America.?
Aren't you Japanese?
You have nothing to do with them I got the transparent milk tea you guys were talking about today. It was alright. Yeah, it is not bad at all. >>85
your milk also become transparent, be care. Ask someone to say SILK 5 times. They will go:
SILK
SILK
SILK
SILK
SILK
Now ask them: “What does the cow drink?”
‘MILK’ will be the swift answer they provide!
Enjoy their reaction after you tell them that the cow drinks water and not milk. >>88
The cow I mean It's just a small cow so he definitely drink milk >>85
Where can I get that anyway?
Sounds so interesting. >>90
You can get it anywhere. >>82
You don't know japanese way of japanese
in America.
They have a lot of good relations between repualicans a lot. Too much drinking transparent milk tea will turn your milk into transparent. Once you get transparent milk, you never be able to make your babies. Be careful. i didn't know that having your skin tatooed has a risk of several serious diseases.
i don't intend to try tatoo myself, i was simply stunned at the fact.
i guess most of young people didn't think carefully before having their skins tatooed.
just as a cool way of expressing themselves... If you have a tattoo, you are not allowed to enter hot springs in Japan.
I wonder if most of gaijin who want to come to Japan know this fact, especially
onsen lovers. Gaiiins are too shy about being completely naked in onsen. So they don’t go there. Most English speakers say "shit, shit, fuck, fuck" every few minites
Shit means クソ!(糞) in Japanese. 糞 is crap..
Japanease also sometimes use クソ!when things didnt go well
that is, these two words are totally the same in meaning and a way to use. That's fun :)
>>103
You!Totally no class. I used to say “kuso” a lot when I was younger. But I’m a full grown-up now. Don’t use such vulgar words anymore...me thinks >>100
No reason but now I think tatoo is not
freaquently see every where. ”めちゃくちゃ”is one of useful Japanese words, i think
we can use it insted of "kuso". Mechakucha sounds so childish.... only teens can use it true love can not be redeemed for cash. Why are you guys replying to a future post? >>107
he did it on purpose
in fact, he said nothing but a neutral comment >>110
Maybe sick for love affaire. >>105
I guess the both words have different meaning.
How's that? these days, the temp is not stable (yeseterday i turned on air conditioner for warmth but at the last week for cooler)
so i dont feel comfortable.
and at the next satuday, high temp will come again reportedly. I want this.
what do you say?
http://amzn.asia/jcMkoI6 It looks good if you are handsome enough to rock that one. that lines up xxxl. so good. I was 19 years old happy birthday. I'm happy everyone was and spend the last 10 generations I will buy it though I am a real cunt-face ?(???)? What kind of face is that? Lol I need to buy winter clothes because it's getting colder there days,
but I can't purchase without try them on. I used to be “fashionable” to some degree, but I’ve become a full uniqloer now. >>119
don't you think uniqlo products make you look fashionable?
being fashionable depends on not what you wear but who wears it, doesn't it? >>118
You can return most of clothes of amazon wiith freight free. >>121
I know, but I can't be bothered. i went to a near supermarket and found the suntory's transparent milk tea you guys talked about.
a spcial corner was set up for it and tons of bottles were displayed.
it was spectacular. >>123 it was spectacular
Do you mean the display, or the drink? >>124
i meant the display by that.
cartons were piled up, a special signage was set up and
a showcard with shop stuff's recommendation comment was attached to a carton.
i bought 1 and plan to drink it tomorrow morning as the product name is "premium morning tea". >>125
Oh, nice. I hope it's tasty. You'll have to let us know.
I haven't been to a Japanese market since we all started talking about the clear tea, so I don't know
if it's available here yet. If I see it, I'll definitely get a bottle. i go to local supermarkets and will take the pics if they are there. I personally prefer this one to the clear milk tea.
https://i.imgur.com/GheeBBT.jpg The election is coming. The soundbites and loud election cars are getting annoying. erection is rather important for me. Let's get your dick erected, emit your transparent milk and collect them. >>129
I like this one.
Taste no problem. Dont get cofused it with calpis as before. >>130
Agree.
However that's interesting.
No any other country has such way of
PR. I went to the Japanese market yesterday, but they didn't have any transparent tea.
However, it may be that things are a little up-in-the-air right now, because they are remodeling
the store, so they might not have everything out.
Maybe they'll have it soon. I'm still optimistic! It must be so weird to see white people shopping at the Japanese market. >>138
I mean, I'm a minority there, but it's still America. Nobody looks twice. Do any of you know Ranma ½?
I just found out I can stream it online, so I'm pretty excited. I love that show, and I haven't seen it in
probably a decade. amazon prime video in jpn is full of anime, such as city hunter series, oishinbo, black jack, esper mami, zambot3,
these videos make us corrupt easily thinking that the monthly fee is 400Yen. >>141
Amazon doesn't have much anime for me, but between Hulu, Crunchyroll, and Netflix, I can watch
most things. Then there are always torrents too. I like using legal services if they're convenient
so I was pretty stoked when I saw Ranma on Hulu recently. >>146
Torrent site gone down quite freaqently. You guys have been talking about transparent drinks so I go this one today. I personally like this best.
https://i.imgur.com/0mlCSHG.jpg kek=lol=w←(for 2ch)
is this OK? >>149
a-ha! This one taste very nice. >>138
You're mr.say one word too many. On October 12th, Thursday, President Donald Trump tweeted about the mass
shooting in Las Vegas. He said something like the tragedy last Sunday, but the
tragic incident happened on October 1st.
From my (wrong?) point of view, "last Sunday" at the point of the tweet was supposed
to mean October 8th. But then again, a week starts from Sunday, so October 8th was
this week's Sunday, not last Sunday at the point of the president's tweet?
I'm really confused.
My question is, when you say "last Sunday" on October 12th, Thursday, what date
does it mean? >>143
Yes, I don't torrent nearly as much as I used to because some really good sites have gone down.
That's why it's nice that the legal options have gotten better.
>>149
Is that a transparent yogurt drink? Crazy! Does it taste like a normal one?
>>150
I don't think anyone really says kek anywhere but 4chan...
>>153
It's not clear in that usage. It could mean either one.That's why it isn't good to
use last/this/next [day of the week]. It's usually ambiguous. >>154
It doesn’t taste the regular yogurt drink. It’s like yogurt water or something. Very light and easy to drink, me thinks. >>154
Oh, Thanks. I thought Trump was so preoccupied with other things that he has lost the track of time. >>154
>I don't think anyone really says kek anywhere but 4chan..
Really? then is this OK?
lol=w i drank the transparent "premium morning tea" at last.
it really smelled and tasted just as milk tea.
if you change the bottle for another one, everybody must believe it is water.
you shouldn't forget this drink contains caffeine as milk tea does.
if you are allergic to it, don't drink it! After I drunk it, my rich white milk turned into transparent milk. What should I do? Why is that you are always so hetai!!!?!? >>160
They think here are only men
Or, they think it's OK to act like in 4ch here
こいつらはヘンタイのバカです Why can't you just ignore him?
You're annoying as him >>156
Of course, that's also a possibility. He's a moron.
>>157
Probably. I died laughing when I find oxford dictionary has the word of "hentai".
https://i.imgur.com/3iHA6jl.jpg Hentai has become an English word already like bukkake. bukkake transparent milk! >>165
Yes, but the usage is a little different than original Japanese. In English, it's probably 90% used to
refer to anime porn, and 9% manga porn. We don't use it to describe people at all. It's a noun. So many people knows dark side of Japan... The general election has come closer to the end.
What's your opinion?
Who's your favourite? >>168
Actually Japan has a reputation online of being full of really weird things, especially when it comes
to sex. Choose your favorite search engine and try "japan strange" you'll see tons of lists and pictures.
Here's a random video on youtube which I did not watch, so it might be NSFW
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vP-BbkjNm0 >>170
Which country are you in?
Just in case. >>170
what is bagel head?
i have never seen that before in jpn. and also i have never seen woman sitting on the counter splitting her legs apart at a fast food restaurant. Its appeard only in porn movie Fuck all politicians in Japan. They suck >>178
I agree. I especially think almost all female politicians don't have ability as a lowmaker. Good politicians do exist, but they don't get covered by the media
nearly as much as bad ones.
Also, I didn't know this until relatively recently, but the good ones
in the LDP have been persuading Abe to adjust the course to the
right direction. This started early this year, and they seem to have
some limited but positive success. I am counting on them for further
persuasion. And I want to make it clear that Ishiba is not one of the good ones. I don’t like Abe. I have no idea why such a low IQ and low academic background guy has become the prime minister of Japan for such a long time? Just a spoiled kid from a good family. >>182
You have no head.Get lost! >>162
then that's their intention,
because their purpose is sowing obscene things before the public >>167
such kind of information is very useful. for Japanese, I think.
thanks. > such a low IQ and low academic background guy
this phrase suggests how the recent generation have only the shallow and one-sided point of view.
they say this with a serious mind, I cant beieve it. Also Abe is totally rigged about the Moritomo and Kake school things. If this was South Korea, Abe would be impeached and follow Park Guen-hye’s suit and be jailed for sure.
Abe destoryed democacy in Japan. sorry, >>184 の rewrite
then that's their intention,
their purpose is to show obscene things before the public >>188
We have no chice but LDP as the Japanese liberal politicians are too stupid
One leader of an opposition party, she is an avid supporter of pacifist Constitution,
was once asked on TV, "If the enemy invades Japan, what would you do? "
she replied,
"I will resolve the conflict with words",
"If they are well armed ? you fight with them? "
"No, I dont want to kill anybody, I will rather to be killed than to kill someone "
then she has no idea to protect her old parents or little chidren.
She is ok to die due to her beliefs but parents and children wouldn't die
She didn't realize it because she cared only about herself
Lack of imagination, this is a true picture of Japanese liberal politicians Ok. You’re one of those netouyos.
Next. hentai talk is rather better than political talk.
these are typically lengthy. people who want to change Japan are going to die from typhoon tomorrow.
that makes me laugh anyway, we have to go to vote tomorrow, if you have the suffrage. why in the midst of typhoon? crazy! Is there anyone who is gonna take an TOEIC exam tomoro? Selfishly, I hope the typhoon is strong enough to give us a day off work.
On Monday, I have to host chourei at my office. Chourei is one of the worst
things ever created. I totally agree with you. Chorei is like a military custom. Why do we have to do it in the office? So awkward Ew another gaijin! Stink! Stink!! Stink!!! Hell yeah! Henrai saves the world! >>199
lost! lost! lost!
You're hentai. It is said the word エッチ comes from hentai.
So hentai isn't such a bizarre word originally. エッチ is made by sanma akashiya.
he says sexual activity evolve like G(自慰:self-job) > H(intercourse) > I(愛:confime love). faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar wwwwwwwwwwwwwwww It is raining cats and dogs. Take care.
Please buy me some korokkes on the way home. i went voting and bought tonziru and takoyaki on my way home. I went to vote but no korrokes.
It’s raining so hard outside and somehow the sound of typhoon sexually arouse me... so run outside being naked. i've come here right now and plz give me a brief summary in 3 lines (ima kita san gyo) i had to work today and on my way home, i was soaked to the skin as it rained so hard.
i have to work tomorrow too and i am pretty sure i will be soaked again before i arrive at the office.
i don't like typhoons. Fuck Abe! This criminal should be jailed. >>190
I don't care about that kind of leftist stupidity at this point.
The increasing number of foreigners is the biggest threat. It needs to be stopped.
And this influx of foreigners is caused by corporate greed and not leftist ideologies.
Unlike the insane western liberals, I think the Japanese leftist parties would actually
decrease the number of incoming foreigners (cheap labor).
I still reluctantly lean toward the LDP because the leftist parties probably have many
stinky policies, and there are some good LDP members trying to stop Abe from obeying
the corporate masters.
But if Abe continues to obey and let in more foreigners,
then I think the Diet Building shoud be nuked by North Korea. >>223
Very agree about foreigner policy.
All of your here take notice about Vietnamise.
Coz they are looks polite but actually... >>217
The typhoon is still dangerous.
Take care.
You don't have to check out the water height of a river. >>197
I thought you were a self-employed, contract based programmar or something?
Now you work for a company for steady income? It was so dry today and I loved it. Wish we had this all year. >>226
thank you, i arrived at the office safe this morning.
last night, my feature phone menacingly made repeated strange sounds and i was startled.
it was an emergency email from the city office to ask us to prepare for evacuation from river flood... i like cabbages but it takes much time to water and slice a cabbage into pieces at home.
so it is very convenient for me to be able to buy meticulously-sliced, clean cabbage
in plastic pack at japanese supermarkets/convenience stores. I know it's a long shot but is there any chance of me being able to marry Tim Kang? >>227
Right, I used to be! But now I work full time for a design and marketing agency.
Working freelance was a bit lonely, and I didn't get out much. Except for zangyou
and chourei, work can even be fun sometimes. It's been raining non-stop lately...it's really annoying. >>206
Maybe you are too young to know the roots.
The word originated from Meiji era when Mr sanma wasn't exist. I love to sleep with my girlfriend. Her pussy is always wet as like an ice cream got melted and sucks my dick from the top to the bottom. I think she must be the one and have already decided to get together. Guys, please say congratulations to me. Being white is a previlage. Just sitting around at the desk all day is what they need to do. >>235
She is a hooker or just slut >>237
That's definitely right! She must be a slut, and I really love to fuck such a bitch:)
I always ask her to do some hentai things and write bad words on her butt. That makes me fuckin excited and I cum inside of her. >>242
Hold back!
You're annoing! >>232
Ah, I see. It's good to know that you have colleagues now. At least it could be better than sitting at
PC monitor alone all day. Being able to have chances to learn Japanese in your working environment
could be a bonus to add your skill set. Good luck, chap. >>240
Thank you! My Japanese has definitely improved since I joined this company, since about 95%
of communication is now in Japanese.
Kanji and keigo are still a problem though. Even my co-workers sometimes can't tell me what the
kanji in a name says... This thread suddenly smells fish and chips.... stinks... I saw the new episode of the Walking Dead but It was kind of disappointing Does anyone here use “格安スマホ”? I’m interested in it. >>244
I'm not interested in it ”Expecial cheep Su-maho" is but using Inter net is high price desu. That would be said it's especially cheep so that its system is only "telephon" and "mail",
but why is there "Internet" in the system? How do I if I push Internet for mistake? some people wear long sleeved t shirt "under" short sleeved shirt.
i wasn't into that kind of fashion style as it doesn't look cool,
but tonight, i gave it a try when going out jogging. >>244
I use one from ASUS with a MVNO. That's good enough for me. >>250
How much does it cost like monthly.
I’m thinking about switching to UQ mobile. >>242
stay locked up in 4ch, boke! >>244
mobile carrier is IIJmio
monthly phone bill is about 2000 yen
instead, only telephone and internet, without mail, 3G/month,
equipment is sony xperia
I almost never use it, though Hi everyone.
I missed a few days, so I probably won't read over everything but if anyone was trying to talk to me,
let me know. >>250
I have a same kind ASUS machine which
is no problem. >>254
Why?Does that short? >>255
Excuse me.Who are you? >>251
It costs about 700 yen per month since I don't use the mobile communication like 3G or LTE so much
besides I don't make a contract to use the telephone line.
Can that be of any help for you?
I use IP phone instead and it works better than I expected. >>258
He is just a ordinary weeboo from California, the U.S.
I like him.
>>260
Let’s get some sleep. >>261
That's a decent enough description.
>>258
I've been coming here for a while but it's the middle of the night for you guys. >>242
It's been a while〜
I was at a bar a few months ago, and someone I was with ordered fish and chips.
The fish was like McDonald's fish fillet. And the chips were actually potato chips
(the kind from bags, crisps), instead of normal chips. >>263
In England? That doesn't sound awesome. >>255

Can that work for distant place? >>264
I miss the ones in the UK. I haven't yet found an authentic 'chippy' style fish
and chip shop here in Japan yet. With the big deep fryers, and a heated shelf
to leave the fish, chips, and scraps to settle for a few minutes after cooking. can i ask you a question?
This is a sentence from press release of Mofa(ministry of foreign affairs).
「President Trump, together with Prime Minister Abe, is also scheduled to meet with family members of the abductees by North Korea.」
but this is after revised.Original was below
「 President Trump is also scheduled to meet with family members of the abductees who had been abducted by North Korea together with Prime Minister Abe. 」
foreign Twitters said 「Mofa needs a new editor.」,「Abe wasnot abducted.」
Does that mean original sentence was interpreted as Abe was abducted too?
Is thete no room for us to understand the meaning of original sentence as revised one? >>245
I live in the UK, but I am using Moto G4.
Not too bad, though I'm thinking to switch to iPhone. Oops. Somehow I typed "age"
I thought I typed "sage" >>272
I don't think not a lot of people interpret like the way these Internet critiques did,
but since it's an official statement from our ministry,
leaving little room for misinterpretation is crucial.
By the way, "abductees by ..." in the revised statement is a bid odd to me.
I would say something like "Japanese citizens abducted by"
but maybe it's a matter of taste. I am not a native english speaker. >>271
That's where your chance of a side business in Japan comes in!
"REAL イギリス人's REAL FISH ANS CHIPS SHOP" >>271
Go to HUB.
You can get a descent one. >>273
Why?
I am using Moto4 too. >>278
I like it, but Lenovo doen's apply security patches regularly.
My phones security is March 1 this year.
Maybe I'm worrying too much but it bothers me.
For iPhone, I just found out that I can get duty free in Japan
so it's relatively cheaper for me to buy there
(although I can't turn off the annoying camera shutter sound...) >>274
Let's get it rgiht! >>279
Don't you mind broken LCD? So many guys here are too excited about the appearance of the britsh... >>281
that's i'm not sure...
when i see someone with broken screen glass,
i feel pity for them as they probably don't have enough money to fix it...
i might be one of these miserable people. Is it possible to learn English completely without my native language?
I try this method with grammar and vocabulary books for native speaker's kids. but It's really harder than learning English normally in Japan.
What do you think, any suggest? I recently was interested in English.
So, I watch the movie of bilingirl at every night.
Her traveling movie is very funtastic for me.
Thanks to her, I enjoy studying English everyday! She is a slut on Youtube which basically teaches English but her content is all about her self-love >>287
Probably so.
It's so expensive!! >>271
Oh, yeah that explains why it doesn't sound right.
>>272
The original is not clear. It seems to imply that Abe was abducted as well, although it doesn't
say that directly. If you think about it, it's easy to realize the intended meaning, but the edited version is not
ambiguous at all.
>>275
You are totally correct about "abductees by..." Gaijin should try to eat Natto. Tell me how it is. Natto should be eated not too mix, not bacurm, you should feel taste of beans,
and Natto virus. So you must not worry Natto's neba-neba. Nattos and grated daikon radiah go well. You don’t know this right? Then you should sleep like a baby in the office. Natto doesn't contain virus. BACTERIA. Hello 2ch-er!
I'd like to brush up my English skills.
But don't ask me why.
So I decided to take a lesson through hellosensei.com.
Do you guys know this service? Why the japanese people pronounce virus "ウイルス". It should be more like "ヴァイァラス" 江戸っ子 can't pronounce ヴィ but ウィ.
I guess. >>300
I googled it and found a quite interesting reason behind that.
I thought it is coming from Deutsch, but I was wrong. >>284
You seem to be just fluent enough to make yourself understood, so you'd probably be better off finding a group of native friends to talk to.
Native children learn by listening to the people around them and copying their speech patterns; English textbooks can help you refine your knowledge of the language, though.
Of course, you're probably going to have to turn to the internet to find people to speak with.
A lot of people are using a chat program called Discord these days, and it may be your best option; it supports both text and voice.
Once you've got that, you can go to discord.me to find public servers to join. Thankfully, the vast majority of them seem to be English.
You probably won't attain perfect English just from chatting online, but it will help you become a little more comfortable using it.
It's also nice to have a diversion from textbooks.
Good luck. >>303
Wow, Thank you for suggesting me!
I've never tried like your method before, So I'm gonna try to find them from Discord!
I think It will be great way to improve my English skills.
It's really helpful for me, Thank you so much<3 I’ve already lost weight like 3.5kg by practicing “no carbo method”. Well technically I only take toast or rice in the morning but still no carbos after that.
Hopefully I’ll lose more 5kg by the end of this year. i will take a day off tomorrow.
it will be fine and there must be numerous exciting things outside in the world, in japan, at my town.
but i can't think about anything special other than enjoying 5ch in my house. >>300
either will do.
like kinase as カイネス or キナーゼ >>293-295
I have never been able to bring myself to try natto. I don't even want to try smelling it. It just looks
too weird.
>>306
You're turning your back on 2ch so soon? >>275>>291
Thank you so much two guys. no problem.
count on me anytime. Cheese and farmented soybeans are kinky foods. >>311
This is either some Japanese humor that I don't understand, or that's not the word you meant. Good morning everyone!
For some reason, I’m so wakeful even though I slept for 3 hours!
I might fall asleep during work. >>313
Good morning! Make your tea extra strong, and hang in there. Is there a big message board or something like that for japanese english
speaker exept here? >>308
no, i didn't mean that by my word.
2ch has turned 5ch so "enjoying 5ch" actually meant "enjoying 2ch". Good morning everyone.
I love natto. But haven't had it almost 10days.
My gut's missing Bacillus subtilis var. natto. I wish we had a harricane every weekend. I used to hate natto, but I'm happy to eat natto with egg or kimchi now. I like to wrap natto and rice by seaweed to eat >>323
I don’t want to see happy couples or happy families at my local shopping mall. They are annoying af. >>324
Kimchi? Are you korean? >>325
I’ll try that. Sounds good and healthy >>329
Why do I? I just don’t like happy people. No big deal. >>335
I seemed your mind's getting ill. >>326Where can you get that? Smells like Korean on this thread. I’m baking some salmon right now. >>313
How did it go?
>>335
I'm having breakfast right now. I have a bagel with cream cheese, tomato, and smoked salmon.
Salmon is probably my favorite fish. Do you guys even have clock? Do you know what time it is? >>337
For me, it's almost 10 in the morning. For you, it's the middle of the night. Did you have a nice day? I'm chatting in the bathroom now!
My smart phone is in the packet having some defect.
Therefore a little water gets in it... >>339
You can eat natto teishoku at Sukiya.
It's very cheap.
But,tastes so nice! >>343
Enjoy mobile in the bath is so nice
idea for killing time. Recently I realized that Western foods are really easy to make and simple. Even kids can cook them. No cooking skills are required. >>343
I think every culture probably has some foods that are really simple and some that are difficult.
What are you talking about, specifically? Does your country have a culture festival?
in Japan,recently,some school hold such a festival near my house. I feel it's so noisy,especially,sound made by a band which was oragnized by high-school students.
I like festival but I dislike to be disturbed my calm holiday. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DNJc39fVoAAe4uc.jpg

What is it e.g. in japan? all women are whores.
if you pay with money, it's called prostitution.
if you pay with your life, it's called marriage. I don’t like women because they are very canny. I don’t like men because they are fools. Basically I don’t like human. What do you think about Griel of H.Astros? >>363

That's true. >>358

as you impressed some people in this thread with a single post full of intelligence, don't you? i quit my job at a factory and started my new career as an office worker.
i haven't got used to this new job yet.
tons of paperwork are bothering me. But an office worker is gonna be way better than a worker at factory in the long run If my memory serves right, you worked for a shipping company or something? Holy moly, those Japanese singers are freakin' cute and their voices are fantastic!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Giv53SdveWo&t=0m20s I'm concerned about my increasing fallen hair.

Then,quit your job again.
That's the only way of surviving.

I’m glad I have tons of hair but I’m getting gray hair instead. >>394

Teens tend to be rediculas. Japanese is the most difficult language to master for foreigners. I don't say it is the most difficult to "learn". Have you ever heard of MGTOW?
If you haven't, you must be living under a rock. >>375
do you think so? why?
one good thing is that as an office worker, i have to use english every now and then.
>>376
no, i worked for a manufacturer of industrial machines. b to b business. >>400
Sit in a chair or walkig around...
I think it's matter of which one is good
for one's charachter. then this is for henatai topics? >>345
Some schools might do a cultural festival similar to the Japanese style festival, but they're not that big or
well-known. However, we tend to celebrate the holidays of different cultures throughout the year, like
Cinco de Mayo and St. Patrick's Day and Oktoberfest. For some reason they mostly involve drinking.
>>346
That's amazing. You're hilarious. I love it!
>>348
I've never seen that word.
>>352
You're asking for examples of easy Japanese dishes? How about something like ochazuke or
Japanese-style omelette?
>>377
The one on the left is cuter, but you're right they have great voices. How old is this? I wonder
what they look like now. may i have a question ?
what does "this nails it very much"mean? Like good job or awesome. >>409
thank you very much Mass-murder in Japan. He killed 9 ppl and had two heads in the freezer. So creepy. >>411
He arrested guy is defenitly pshchopath.
Maybe there's other vics. it is likely that hospitals all over japan will run short of vaccines for the flu this winter
so i had a flu shot at a nearby hospital today. isn't it that the 9 peple killed themselves and the arrested guy simply cut their bodies one by one...?? >>407
sounds like the usa people just want to drink for whatever reason. My family doctor said ysterday that the shortage of flu vaccine
will be resolved in December I haven't taken vaccine even when getting flu. Sometimes I hear saying "gosh" , but especially only by women. Is this word for
using women? I think it isn't a murder to kill people who wanted to die.
For such the people, it's much more painful to be forced to live longer.
But anyway, the mass murderer must be just a serial killer, not like Dr.Kilico. >>418
Not necessarily. Women tend to use the word but men also use it. >>416
really.
it should take about 2 weeks for the vaccine to work in your body,
so i would be a little concerned if i would get a shot in december.
flu might already be epidemic in some areas in december. I think I have never got any flu shot in my whole life. No problem yet. People say “fools don’t get the flu” This applies to me. but you got flu shot by someone's chimpo. >>423
Hey! Mr.full of life.
Get your internet connection
off. And throw it out from the window of your room >>408 >>409
I think it's more like saying "You're exactly right," but I would need the rest of the sentence to be sure.
>>415
It is a pretty popular activity.
>>418
Anybody can use it, but it's not very common. It's a very mild word. Maybe women see it as dainty or
girly or something. I'm not sure.
>>425 >>426
lol >>427
im >>408
the full text is "I think this pretty much nails it."
the text which the upper one is the answer to is a statment about the pros and cons of otaku cultue.
"You're exactly right,"or " good job" or awesome."
the all upper meanings of words look appropriately for me as the reply to that text
in the first place, why "nail it "means to praise or agree with? there seems to be a very conservative community in the world
where people are not properly taught how to impregnate someone.
men, grown up in such a community, sometimes think that
just sticking theirs in or sticking theirs in & pissing is enough...unbelievable. today i decided to record my daily expenses to see what costs me how much.
i am not a diligent person so it's kind of troublesome
but i will try to do it as i want to save an amount of money for later life (when i get old). >>439
Are you basically a welthy person? >>431
no way!
i am almost always worried about money though i have never been deep in debt. >>428
It comes from the expression "to hit the nail on the head" which means being right on the mark,
exactly what you were trying to do.
>>433
I know the feeling. I wish the basic income would be in practice asap.
Lots of jobs have being replaced by computers(AI), so the government should compensate for unemployed people by AI. Do Americans use this below phrase often?
" That takes the cake " >>437
It's not unheard-of but I don't think it's very common.
However, many expressions are kind of regional, so maybe in another part of the country, it's
more common. I'm in California. >>438
Really? One of my favorite youtuber Joe Inoue used this phrase in his video. He also was born and raised in LA California. You can hear it in this video at 03:37 https://youtu.be/uvunbvXemoc.
I thought it was common in California Hal: Does she take the cake, or what?
Mauricio: She takes the whole bakery, Hal.
from 'Shallow Hal', pretty funny, >>439
I guess that usage is more common than what I had in mind. I was thinking of using it as a reaction
when someone tells you something. The way he did it is more common, so I don't know why I didn't
think of it. In his case, it means like, "If you thought that stuff was bad, this is even crazier." or something.
So it's not too uncommon to use it when you're talking about a list of things like that, and you want to
make a point to say how the next thing you're about to say is the most extreme.
Don't say it every day, but it's not super rare. The legendary comedian George Carlin mentioned the phrase
in his "Everyday Expressions" episode.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHhYLJMi7CE&t=3m15s >>442
Oh, thank you so much! Your explanation is really clear and explicit! It is very understandable for English learner someone like me:) One more question. Is the phrase possibly a little rude or too casual? Should I refrain from using it in official situation? >>445
It's not rude, but I think you should avoid using figures-of-speech in official situations, in general. >>444
And you're welcome ^_^ What a productive thread. Good job guys. Trump said that US should tighten the entrance regulation
Subsequently CNN accused him of being a racist

You put tv on 2ch to plays games/vhs is what I always believed. what dose the 5 mean?
>to be one up on english 4chan >>470
No major change actually.
Only name and domain. 5ch needed escape from ex-boardkeeper.
he's quit the boardkeeper but he want to hold 2ch.net right.
So 2ch had to throw away its name. according to japanese numerology,the number " 2 " means "disuniting" and "causing trouble"
hiroyuki is fixated on 2ch because he loves confusion and chaos the number "5"means "common sense" and "harmonious"
So, 5ch will be run on commonsense grounds, maybe became a decent BBS without much fun and wordplay in the future tomorrow is my birthday and an recruitment agent just sent me an email wishing me a special birthday fulled with joy and laughter.

I'm not an exception tho haha I just came back from a local drugstore and I found this “Tenga drink” there. Have you any guys tried it before?! Have you ever heard of the phrase "real man" ?
It actually means "good slave."
That's how women manipulate men. It's called shaming tactics.
If you don't bend over backwards to give women what they want,
you are not a "real man."
There are tons of thirsty men out there working their ass off
to be a "real men." How gullible they are is just beyond me. Men are pretending like they're self-sacrificing.
To fuck them.
It's business. Vagina is international currency.
That's it. When asked why he wants to climb Mt. Everest, a famous British climber replied, "Because it's there."
If you ask me why I want vagina, I would answer," Because it's there." >>488
go to crusing spots. >>500
No idea for your bad attitude. You can't realize if it is vagina until you certainly see it. Perhaps it might be dick. >>508
That's you as I said before.
Get lost! I'm still a cherry boy actually. You should be proud of youself. Being vergin is sacred and pure unlike dull of dirty minded couples out there >>504
Thank you but I'll be thirty in three years.
That's so scary. Rumor has it that if you are over 30 years old man and still virgin, you will become a fairy. As opposed to popular belief, happiness doesn't
have anything to do with marriage.
You might believe it does, but in all actuality it does not.
It's just a delusion. Society imposes the idea on you so
they can put you in a lifelong slavery. >>503

I excused that I might've been exhausted by hard working.
So embarrassedヽ( ̄д ̄;)ノ=3=3=3 i want to dispose of my old laptop pc.
but if i throw it away as a usual garbage, it costs me a bit (the city office charges me the service fee).
there are several private companies which buy your old pc,
so i asked one of them for the estimate on its website but i haven't heard from them yet. >>515
i know.
how exhausted you are is a very important factor for enjoying sexual pleasure and reaching an orgasm.
let's not work so hard before visiting the store and try it again. >>517

Kisses as greetings such as cheek kissing are permissiable, if they are done in a short time.

you must have heard of an old saying "heros love sexual affairs (英雄色を好む).". hentai is defferent in its meaning from a nomal sexual affair
hentai will never be a hero, but an outcast I don't think I can speak English forever. If I ask girls out actively, they call me a womanizer(チャラい). If I wait until girls ask me out, they call me a shy boy(草食系男子).
What on earth should I become? My wife and I work at the same company. Yesterday, she got laid off. So today isn't a good day. but you and your wife lay down on a bed and swang it. >>566
then, you should ask girls out moderately, not "actively".
plus, you should put your time and energy into only 1 girl, not "girls".
by doing it, no one will call you a womanizer or shy boy. >>565

i have continued to use the 5th for close to 5 years and there seems something wrong with it. Are you still using a future phone? Lol >>575
Your wife was fired based on what's called last hired, first fired policy?
If you and your wife shared your/your wife's car to your workplace then you'll
be in trouble when your wife get a new job somewhere else, unless you have two cars.
Now you have only one source of income. Can you survive?
You had to be the one to be fired, because you post on 2chan at work. :P >>578
Whom are you talking to? >>576
I guess it happens fairly often in the US, but this is the first time that I have seen it happen to
someone I know. Thanks for your good wishes!
>>577
Telecom. The company is like a brokerage for business telecom services. Internet, phone systems, etc.
>>579
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love dressing up!
>>584
Yes, that pretty much explains it.
We did drive together, but she has her own car. Unfortunately, this means our costs will go up because we
will have to pay for gas for 2 cars to commute every day instead of one. The good thing is, we live with my
grandmother because she needs help, so we don't have to worry about rent and utility bills. >>584m >>586
Also, our work provides food, so we would eat breakfast and lunch for free every day, so we will
start spending more on food too. Things might be difficult, but we should be OK. >>587
Lucky you.
Free lunch, and breakfast for that matter is not so common in Japan except, as far as I know, for
some IT companies like Rakuten (e-commerce platform, whose logo is put on Golden State Worriers
jersey as it has just become a sponsor for the NBA club. They want to expand business worldwide )
and Google Japan.
It's good to know you don't have to rob a bank for money. The holiday shopping season is
coming up and I guess American ppl have lots of things on their shopping lists.
You need to keep an eye on your wife, though. I have heard lots of news where a former
employ comes back to their workplace with AK47 for revenge.
You don't want to see her on CNN and Tump mention your wife, like, crazy woman enjoyed her
shooting spree..... They are wonderful.
I can't write long sentences word.
Use english is difficult. I’m on a diet. I only eat bean sprouts, vegitable juice, protein shake, boiled eggs. Yum >>590
work out right away! >>599
For getting good looks? >>591
I go to gym 4 times a week. I have some muscles but I have too much fat as well. A fifty year old single mom was fired after a photo where she flipped the bird at Trump's motorcade
when she was riding a bike went viral. But now it's reported that she is getting scores of job offers
from her potential employers, who I believe are anti-Trump.
One of the ways to be competitive on U.S. job market might be to disrespect Trump. >>593
ok,ok. so you should run!
actually I go to a gym 5times a week as well.
but I also have a lot of fat.. lol >>597
I have no energy to run after working out at the gym so I walk on a treadmill for 40 minutes or so.
Also I go for a walk when I don’t go to gym. I’m going to do that later. >>588
I am pretty lucky. I don't think the free food thing is very common. I certainly never worked at any other
company that did it. It's probably only small, young companies with mostly young people. We like perks.
My work also hosts free yoga 3 times a week, which is pretty nice since a: It's a nice workout, and b: I get to
stay on the clock without doing work for an hour.
>>589
Don't worry, just do what you can! Everyone is at a different level.
>>590
Honestly that at least sounds like a pretty rounded diet. Plenty of people eat worse than that. I wonder if
a bit more carbohydrates might be good to give you energy, though. No rice?
>>595
I'm pretty sure that's exactly what I do every single time too. It's definitely not over the top at all. >>601
How do you feel about running into the ocean with your clothes on? Hey guys, go this restaurant and try eating FREAKS.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmfu0VZj8I0&t=03m15s >>603
I love okonomiyaki, even with bonito freaks. There used to be a restaurant near my house, but it
recently closed and now there is a curry shop there instead. I don't know any other place
to get okonomiyaki, so that's pretty disappointing. Okonomiyaki goes well with beer. On the other hand, raw fish cuisine such as Sushi, Sashimi go well with sake or white wine >>600
You definitely should take all the three yoga classes a week if you are paid during the lessons.
Yoga, in Japan tend to be for women or girls. Men who are eager to join such classes could have
a different purpose, like enjoying staring women in tight outfit. Some yoga poses are sexy and resembles
sex positions like doggie style.
>>602
>running into the ocean with your clothes on
Does this mean to put yourself in an awkward position?
I guess this is something to do with him taking to a post in the future as of that post. >>602
After giving it some thought, I think I understand what it means.
Usually you need to put your clothes off (and maybe put on a swimsuit) "before" running into the ocean but
for somer reason, he somehow respond to the future post. The right order is mixed up....
That's what it means, I guess? Going to gym is not my cup of tea.
First of all, it is an American custom. They eat a lot and actually there're lots of fat people in U.S.
Look at that the size of a single serving. Now wonder they get fat. For American, working out is to
burn the excess of calories they intake through binge eating.
On the other hand, Japanese foods are healthy and are served in the right portion, so you don't need
to do exercise. I'd say people who go to gym is fooled by marketing or ads that try to
spread images that going to gym is cool. Walking on treadmill is the most ridiculous thing to do.
That's what hamsters do. You should walk outdoor, sensing the nature, feeling nice breeze, instead of breath in the
the smell of sweats of gymgoers indoor.
You can build your muscles without using machines at gyms. You can do push-ups, sit-ups,
and other exercises using your own weight, not relying on machines. The time it takes to go to and
from gym is a total waste. Drinking protein is what fools do. Nothing is better than balanced diet.
If you're not a body builder, you don't need to take protein pills and drinks. You are an asshole. You know that right? >>608
This is exactly what so called “kusogari” thinks about working out. So ignorant >>614
Canadians love to drink wine with sushi.
And I think that's good idea. >>610
I'm not Kusogari at all. I'm nuidarasugoi. Girls are impressed with my body. There's no way to prove it
as I want to protect my privacy. >>608
A survey indicated that 97% of white women don't find Asian guys attractive because they are too skiny.
We should eat a lot of unhealthy food and go to gym mother fu**er! >>614
Asians are Asians. No mattar how much muscle you gain, you're still Asian, and Whilte
women don't see you as a potential boyfriend. It's not the matter of muscles after all.
You are stupid enough to think if you build muscle, you can go out with a white woman?
Dream on....
I love Asian girls by the way. There is only one way to go beyond the racial boundary, and it's not building muscle.
It's MONEY. The more you get rich, the more chance you'll have to get married with a white woman.
Look at famous people's interracial marriages, wife being white and husband black or asian, then you'll get my point. >>613
I bet your body is like this...right?
https://i.imgur.com/9VJmzYz.jpg >>608
i think American goes to gym as their medical fee is so high compared to jpn, and as their worship of muscle. >>614
Wasted mind. Fix it. >>628
Being brutally frank it's a laghing matter isn't it? i know little about akb48 or keyakizaka48.
is there any masterpiece song which makes me feel better and want to work hard at the office? I recommend flying get or something i see, i will check it out on youtube.
thank you. >>631
What is your job?
What is your personarity? I can't speak english for about 5 years. Let's talk about tranpalant milk tea again.
Actuall it tastes not so bad. transplant milk?
you need my thick milk? /// Again?lol There is nothing to talk about it anymore. Hi jook, are you here? I'm planning to go to Oakland, California next year. But I'm a little afraid cuz I heard the city is the 2nd dangerous place in entire US. Have you ever visited there? What is the city like? >>628
What is your favourite drink then? Tell us >>632
Stop it to get lost. >>633
Why are you so angry? >>618
no way.
I'm like this without chest hair and with more fat around waist.
My six pack is covered with fat.
>>619
Oh, medical cost...that could be another reason. There's meaningless post recently here. If you ask me, it's not limited to this thread. 2chan, currently named 5chan itself is meaningless. I won't used for the name of 5chann. >>636
No six pack? That’s not called “nuidarasugoi”... me thinks. >>623
i just watched the music video of "flying get" performed by akb48 on youtube.
i'm afraid that i wasn't excited at the song at all and i yawned a big yawn while watching.
1 thing i was surprised at is that this song was released more than 6 years ago. >>640
I'm a liar. To be honest, I'm chubby. I lay on a couch the moment I finish eating
dinner. I often eat oily snacks between meals. You can tell why I get chubby.
You can punch my ab and it wouldn't hurt at all, because my thick layerof fat absorb
the impact. Fat works better than six pack when it comes to self defense. are you a chubby bear?
so i rub you on the bed. Unfortunately, (and fortunately for me) I'm not gay. You should become a gay, otherwise you never get married cuz a chubby guy never be able to attract women. Chubby (or debu) guys, bald guys, nerdy guys with ugly glassses are the top 3 unattractive guys in Japan, I would say. >>646
Don't look a part of whole abnormally.
SOB. >>639
However,maybe it's good for refleshing. i spend most of the working hours sitiing at my desk
so i make it a rule to go out and eat outside during the lunchtime especially on a sunny day.
the sunlight in november is comfortable to me.
sometimes a sudden gush tries to blow away my bento. You made your bento every morining? Japanese conbini bento is the best in the world I felt willing rather to eat お茶漬け than to eat such awful food >>650
no, there are several bento shops around my office and i buy a cheap bento there almost everyday.
i am lazy and very reluctant to prepare bento myself. >>653
I see. You should eat vegetable as well. Typical bentos lack of it. >>652
お茶漬け is fine but I can’t stand 味噌汁ぶっかけごはん. Such a nasty food. >>654
yes, you're right.
most bentos are full of greasy fried chickens or beefs which you can't tell are actually made of.
i try my best to eat as many tomatos or bananas as possible at dinner at home. >>656
Banana is not a vegetable though... it’s full of carbo...I recommed vegetable juice to make up for that. It's getting difficult for me to write or speak in English. I'm really sad. >>654
In conbini a vegitable pack is little bit expensive. >>657
However, bananas include a lot of potassium. it helps to excrete salt from our body. >>656
i recommend to take freezed vegetables in your lunch box and defreeze by electronic oven on lunch time. Scientists classify tomatoes as fruits, but most people think of them as vegetables. too bysy to email friends of mine
I sometimes feel like having a day-off, all day I also have holiday only 7 days on this month.
Long time day-off isn't there! It's a slave labour! >>655
Oh、oh, oh (← looks like Ooka-echizen?xD) 味噌汁ぶっかけご飯 is one of my favorite dishes
if soft-boiled egg on it, further 旨い I got 900 points in the toeic test! Congrats! But it that a brag? a hentai in this thread has full marks of TOEIC and 1st grade of eiken. >>667
Soft egg? It’s a raw egg or half-boiled egg like 温泉卵? >>671
egg's state is between liquid と solid
おいしいよ! yesterday, when i went to the office in the morning, i spotted a long queue of people.
i wondered what was going on there and noticed they were waiting for the opening time of a pachinko store.
the long line was spectacular and looked like the one when nintendo switch was released the other day. >>673
That's laghing matter isn't it! >>606 >>607
You are correct that part of the reason I like yoga is because of the pretty girls it tight clothes.
However, that's not the entire reason. It's realaxing, and nice excercise sometimes.
I didn't mean to confuse you with "running into the ocean," so I'm sorry about that. It wasn't supposed
to be an expression, I meant it literally. I just wanted to come up with something ridiculous that a person
would not normally want to do, since he was so gung-ho about it. I just thought it was funny.
>>631
I haven't been there so I can't answer from experience, but I have also heard that Oakland is not so great.
I'm sure it has it's good and bad areas, just like any big city. Are you going with a group? Stick together,
ignore any stranger that tries to talk to you on public transit, keep your wallet and phone close, maybe
in front pockets.
>>646
Do you think that's why people go to the gym? >>662
electric oven = microwave
>>664
I have always wanted to, but I've never gone. It seems like a lot of fun. There's an airsoft store
pretty close to where I grew up, but I never had the money, and now I don't know if my friends
would want to.
>>676
I'm not selling anything though. >>679
I love stew. What's in it? I see peas and carrots. Maybe potatos and onions too. What else? https://22.snpht.org/171114072939.jpg
https://22.snpht.org/171114072941.jpg
a assistant professor related to natural disaster from columbia univ commented at news in jpn now.
he is such a adooorable bear! >>681
English ability gives you a profit probably
selling things in Mercali and any other site like that. >>682
Looks nice.
I guess making it takes much out of you. >>682
Are you into white bears too? Look at this. I laughed it so hard. What a bitch.
https://i.imgur.com/srpyXZR.jpg >>686
I died laughing
By the way, she looks 40 years old lady >>686
What make you laugh so hard?
It's easy to catch this kind of woman on street. This type of women never be able to get married. That is for sure. >>671
>>672
Egg goes well with natto! >>682
i am very concerned about the assistant professor's sad face. >>677
Thanks for answering the question regarding "running into the ocean."
>>687
Wasn't it staged? The man could be the woman's son, which doesn't make it less
normal, though. They sort of look alike.
If this is real, then the man felt good about it and let her continue to do that?
The woman has to be mentally ill. I still don't understand why he felt good as
the woman is not an attractive young woman. >>686
i just sympathized with her and i have no idea how to help her out.
she needs professional treatment or support. did kevin spacey really sexually harass a young boy?
i listened to a podcast which reported the news that made me gasp.
he is an oscar-winning actor in hollywood! >>694
yes. w
his anxious eyes make him more charming. >>701
yes
he is so kawaii (w >>700
Unfortunately that's true
i liked him >>698
If you're talking about the groping woman, one thing I don't understand is that
the man didn't reject her. He didn't seem to be scared. That's why I find the video
strange. >>682
which place is the guy with a tearful look saying about ?
about NY and somewhere in Japan? or only NY?
日本も危ないって言ってるの? >>700
I think gay people tend to have attitude like rebel to all. >>705
i am intoxicated for him that time, so i didnt care about the news itself. >>708
I know,
I put his picture on my computer desktop xD
I'm going to fall in love with him mostly Σ>―(*・д・*)→ キュン >>700
It seems like that sort of accusation is being made toward a lot of people in Hollywood right now. This weekend, someone got my debit card information and ordered pizza 24 times all over the country.
Each order was between $40-60, so it was about $1,200 total (about 13,600Y).
That's a damn lot of pizza. >>712
Sorry.How could I believe you? I like to get #英語で雑談 seen a lot in Twitter!
Give me some good idea. >>711
I'm not sure Kevin Spacey should be included in the series of recent revelations.
To me, he is just a gay guy with a long history love/hate relationship.
The most disturbing one is the Louis C.K. case.
I enjoyed his standup in this year on Netflix, and
from it I thought he is sort of a thoughtful/philosophical person.
But he is turned out to be jsut a male controlled by his penis. >>712
Oh,really?
I'm sorry to hear that
I was also stolen my card information the other day, but the credit card company
prevented criminal one inch from using the card.
According to my bankers, he/she was going to use it at Universal Studios Japan in Osaka.
I have no earthly idea where it was stolen >>715
Reason is one thing and sex is another.
By the way he looked like a gay at the initial sight of him
Is he straight? a young boy says "wrist watch? i don't need to wear it. only the clock function of my smartphone is enough.".
a young girl says "PC? i don't need it. i can do everything with my smartphone what you do with your PC.".
well well well.
how many devices will smartphones deprive us of in our daily life? >>718
However,you can see wrist watches here and there in any city. >>718
You are such a dinosaur >>717
he (i assume you are talking about louis) is straight i think.
he has kinds as well.
when i see that kind of news on perpetrators with kids,
the first thing comes to my mind is the future of these poor kids. >>712
One possibility is that your wife has been frustrated since she lost her job and enjoyed the shopping
spree to let off steam?
Seriously, though, I hope you've got to the cause of the problem and took preventive measures already.
Hopefully, you'll get reimbursed. >>715
Do you know the most recent case reported of child molestation by him to a young boy?
The mother of the boy, currently 18 years old held a press conference accusing
the actor. Kevin tried to distract attentions from his sexual abuse to boys in the past by
confessing he's gay. >>716
Luckily my bank is also good. They already gave me back the money and a new card is
on the way.
I'm glad your bank was able to save you too!
>>722
She must travel fast, because some of the orders were a thousand miles away. I want to write something in English here but I have nothing to write. Good morning guys! Have a good day. >>727
Well, you successfully wrote English, so good job!
>>728
Good morning! I hope you have a great day. :) What do you have planned? i washed my down jacket as the clod wave is coming to japan and may fall snow on japan sea side. my dad handed me a A4 sized booklet case the other day.
he told me that going forward, it would be mine.
i opened the case and there were a collection of old silver coins which were placed neatly side by side.
most of them were what you call anniversary coin and now i am wondering how to deal with them. I think most of you write well enough that you can just post on reddit or something and chat with native speakers.
It would probably help way more than those online English conversation services staffed with South East Asians whose English is barely intelligible.
Like I checked out the Native Camp thread and I'm just shaking my head at the thought that people actually pay for that. >>276-277
Near Arashiyama in Kyoto, I went down a sidestreet and found a pie shop...
The name was something like "Jerry's Pies" and there was a British flag above
the entrance. That was a strange experience. Maybe if I could import the equipment,
I could open a real Fish & Chip shop. I've been to HUB, but it's just oven cooked
fish and chips, I think. >>461
I think '2ch' comes from it being the 'second channel to Amezou', many English texts get this wrong. in 1990's, i saved data to CD ROM.
in 2000's, i got to know external portable hard drive
and so i started to save data to it.
in 2010's, i save data to small size USB flash memory
which is very useful and easy to carry with me.
i get excited when i think about what kind of device is the next big tool for saving data,
exept for cloud technology. >>727
I know what you mean. I'm learning Japanese and have the same problem.
I'm not terrible at it, I can at least hold a conversation or express myself enough so that someone who speaks little English can understand, but I'm just an apathetic person who doesn't have any opinions.
It's bad enough that I barely say anything in English, but in Japanese I just often don't know how to express myself even when I want to.
And I feel like just talking to Japanese people, them knowing that I'm a foreigner who "doesn't understand" makes it so much harder to become friends with anyone.
Like people wouldn't want to talk to me anymore once they've heard all the "novelties" from the strange world known as "anywhere but Japan." >>735
lost.Never come back. >>740
It's going to be a chip put into under one's skin maybe. >>733
I agree.
>>737
Did you skip minidisk? Weren't they pretty popular in Japan? Never really caught on in the US,
although I thought they were really cool.
>>743
Not the kind イギリス人さん wants to make. It's getting cold recently isn't it? >>736
Which subred do you recommend for that issue? >>739
I have heard that 2ch on TV is between the nhk channels.
Is there any relation to that idea? i think sumo should retreat from TV broadcasting. >>729
Thank you. This simple sentence is decent enough to write.
>>738
You must have studied Japanese a lot.
It's too hard for me to hold a conversation in English.
I'm jealous.
There is something I've been thinking about a friend - definition of a friend.
(A)friend(s) means 友達 literally, but I feel some differences between a friend and 友達
To become friends is easier than become 友達.
友達 is more like good friends or close friends.
It's hard to make 友達 for me tho. >>749
I know what you mean.
It's also harder as an adult. When I was a child, it was easy to make friends. reportedly Bulma's voice actor died just before. I look ugly today. I don't wanna go out. My face is ao round and red. Fuck gaijins. But only Whites. My taste of girl is cauasian. Only cauasian.
So I have almost no hope here in Japan.
Where should I live? >>753
How do you think about that North chon nanmins are coming to Japan in near future.
I hate chon,because of their rude attitude. I will write one word in english everyday. >>751
Romantic ageruyo〜... >>751
technically,actress >>755
I don’t like them neither. >>754
Well if you are Asian, there is no hope to date with white girls even if you go abroad. They think Asians are disgusting human-looking animals. >>760
Bullshit you shit.
My ex was white. She was not so beautiful tho. Ew! White girls are the worst. They will look so old as they age. They constantly need to get botox I get an erection only for whites. >>764
I just saw the video and he is one of those typical whites. We have to stand up and make sure all whites are put in labor camps! >>749
>You must have studied Japanese a lot.
Not really. I've been studying for less than a year.
I've made some good progress, I guess, but I'm never happy with it.
It's way harder for me to have a verbal conversation than a written one, for that matter.
When you're just typing you can take your time to think out everything and look up a word if you need to.
When speaking you don't have that luxury.
>(A)friend(s) means 友達 literally, but I feel some differences between a friend and 友達
I don't quite get what you're getting at here.
Maybe there are just cultural differences that define what a "friend" is.
Although I wouldn't say I have very many friends at all. I have one best friend, a handful of sort-of-friends, and over a dozen acquaintances.
>>760
You can snag some at least decent looking white girls by just being Japanese.
I mean there are race chasers of all kinds, but there's plenty of decent looking white girls who would go crazy for a Japanese boyfriend.
Of course, if you're ugly, you'll need to lower your standards accordingly. But at the same time, the uglier they get, the more rabid they get for a Japanese boyfriend. >>766
Those rare species are anime girls. >>764
Here is not your message board. >>789
A lil bit of agree. Whites are inmoral basically.
That's commonly known world wide. Y'all must know that beauty and military capabilities are justice after all.
Be strong. Being beautiful is the strength for women. Being financially strong is the strength for men. >>795
No idea.You like coming from other planet. >>770
I totally agree with you. Whites are nemesis for the world peace. I wish I had been a bird. >>800
It's getting cold
out there. >>816
Let’s have a hot pot party! >>744
no, i didn't use a minidisk at all.
i can't even remember what it was like. >>804
Sounds really nice.
What kind of one is the best for you? >>917
I have a thing for motsu nabe and kimchi nabe. Great choice for freaking cold weather! Some kind of time machine is coming out of people asses >>808
Go get a good doctor! Between the racists and the future-replying trolls, there wasn't actually as much conversation
as it looks like today. >>807
The both are nice and
I like mizutaki too. >>810
I have no idea where you are getting at in
that conversation. >>819
I know! Mizutaki is the best! I like putting some yuzu pepper on it. Blake Shelton is not sexy at all. Why this racist won the sexiest man title? I don’t understand. Why does he speak for feature? >>766
I mean I have no friends. It's getting colder and colder. Winter is coming.
2018 will be the year of the dog (戊戌)in zodiac of Japanese.
I'm wondering if the Dire wolf suits in twelve zodiac of Japanese better than the dog. >>793
So are you a dog year and you think it's lame, so you want to be dire wolf since it
sounds cooler? i am dog year but i like turtle.

Instead of what? Those are gallons. You can also see cartons in that picture, for quarts
and half-gallons. >>798
That paper container is called a "carton" in English. We have them too for smaller sizes.
You can see some in the first picture. https://i.imgur.com/Obe3LqJ.jpg
For Canadian milk, you have to buy a pitcher like this:
https://i.pinimg.com/originals/30/db/a4/30dba43cce8dd3f09add7d5b67bfc0a7.jpg
and you save the pitcher and just buy a new bag. I have tried it, and even though it looks
like the bag will spill, it actually works just fine. Then you only throw away the bag, so it
creates less waste. >>800
I think the idea of apologizing for being off schedule by such a small amount is pretty funny,
but I can understand why they did it, since the train system is famous for being perfectly
on time. Japan is crazy. People are robots. They are not human. I wanna escape from here. I really enjoyed chatting today but I'm about to leave work so I will probably be gone
for the weekend. I'll try and remember to check in on my phone. Have a great day! >>826
Escape soon.No one cares. Are you afraid of AI? Haa! that makes me funny! You guys are already AI, haa!!! Because you are a human robot mother fucker! >>802
please get out, please >>803
OK. Have a good day What is this? many mad men here today >>804
you were bullied by foreigners on 4ch or something? >>808

It really is getting colder.
Not quite as cold as I'd like, though.
Here in Sweden where I live it rarely gets cold enough for it to snow.
Pretty sad considering when people think of Sweden,
snow is probably one of the first things that come to mind. I wanna fuck white chicks.
Tonight,I'm gonna go pick up them in a club. Ikea comes to my mind when it comes to Sweden. >>816
Be careful to get STDs >>818
I don't fuck black. So I'm okay. >>818
it's called STIs these days. Hey yo you guy,working at medical place?

See you later,English sets! I hang out with this white gaijin for the first time at a cafe and he asked me to go to his home. I politely declined that offer. Was he asking sex? >>825
Are you a woman? If not, did he look like a peter puffer?
If so then maybe he was trying to get some sex out of the ordeal.
Seems like a very sitcom-ish way of trying to get laid though. >>849
It depends.No idea.Sorry. >>825
Precisely!
White friends always say Japa girls are easy to ask having fuck. And they say Japa girls are good at blow job.
This is true story. Be careful with white shits. I just noticed my booty is way sexier than thin Jap girls. >>832
That's a cospiracy theory. In japan, 95% of japanese people can't speak english at all. I don't have an english speaking friend. I'm eager to talk with people in english. But I'm too shy to go to an international party held in Roppongi and Shibuya. I hate these places.
How can I practice english in this country. Holly shit. >>833
You are shy as you said.
So you better live as an ordinary Jap. That's it.
Or come with me to Ropp together. >>837
You are totally no class as you are. Shibuya is teem with tons of gaijins. One of the dangerous places in Japan. This thread is full of boring guys if only I could fly the sky If I were a bird,I would fly across the Pacific Ocean. If you could have one super power, what would you choose?
Most people might choose "flying". But I would say "invisibility". I got a pack of cornstarch today. I’m happy. why gys here cant do verbal exchanges
everyone just tweets unrelated one owrd each other here.
let's have more an intelligent conversation! You shoud not expect too much here, dude >>843
I'd probably choose invisibility as well.
But if I could get the power to never need to sleep, eat, or drink, then I'd go with that instead.
Invisibility also wouldn't work versus infrared cameras. Invisible or not, you still emit heat. >>864
Now you're full of boring. >>815
Wait are you from Sweden?
I've heard that the building industry is so progressing there like the concept of passive house.
It's way too cold here even when you are in a room.
>>799
I've never seen such a plastic bag of milk but I want to try it someday.
It seems that you must treat it carefully especially when you transport and stock it up.
>>833
We got the Internet. Do you know what ”language exchange” is like?
You can help people who want to learn Japanese, or any other languages, and then they would help you in return.
Are you on any social media? Let’s get partners and chat! It’s so windy and cold outside. Stay inside and do “nukunuku” at home is the best. now i grip my sausage and "nukunuku" What do you do with invibility...
Actually,l can guess a lot of things,
but at last you might only feel vanity with it... Not vanity but satisfaction http://chat-in-english.bbs.fc2.com/
For your another spare time please come to the new site. Satisfaction only arise from direct interaction.
Hinding behind veil gives you certain extent of pleasure,
but it won't get you nowhere. I should've used anywhere rather than nowhere. It depends on people whether you feel satisfied or not with it. I would get satisfied. You wouldn't get satisfied. That's it. >>850
Yep, I'm from Sweden.
I haven't heard about those so called passive houses, though.
All I know is that the capital where I live, Stockholm, has a serious housing shortage.
All the immigration into the country makes it hard to find somewhere to live.
And the few places that you can find are really expensive.
Oh, and if you or >>833-san have any social media or Discord (a very popular free chat program,)
then we could talk and help each other with the respective languages we're learning. there also are some people who get in the way of exchanges between Japanese and
westerners, like >>860,>>785,>>804 in 4ch. why?? some kind of operatives?
that never happend on the other countries' thread >>859
i didn't know about discord at all until you mentioned it in your post.
i got interested in it and i will check what equipment i need and other requirements to enjoy it.
thank you! hey native speakers.
Is it appropriate to say "take off" when I want you to take off your jacket?
Without an object of prepositon off, does that just sound like ordering taking off (from runway) ?
How about just saying "put off"?
Which is better , put off or take off ? >>859
Do you welcome ibrahimovic in your soccer squad again?
Do you want all swedish soccer squad as ideal?
>>833
you might acquire drug addiction as well as english speaking skill.
that is what worries me most. Ugh! So many gaijin lovers here! >>864
You speak english well.
And the same time stink well.
Now putting all together you've got
suicidal tendencies. >>869
Let's talk about North korea. >>864
"Take off your jacket" is totally fine. "Put off your jacket" doesn't sound right.
>>865
I don't know anything about soccer or sports, so I don't have any opinion on the matter. >>870
then, how about "take off" only without "your jacket" ?
which sounds right "take off" only or "put off" only ?
I was surprised you don't have an interst in soccer.
Soccer must be most popular sport in Sweden.
You didn't care when Sweden beated Italy in worldcup playoff ?
The loss of Italy was relatively a big sports news even in Japan.
I guess even people who don't care about soccer in dailylife
get excited when it comes to worldcup.
person like you is common in Sweden? I tend to judge 異性 by looks.
I want to be able to see personality.
I'm feeling that I'm mentally child.
That's why I don't have a girlfriend and also be cherry boy.
I'm bitter(;_;) >>871
Do you mean as a sentence on its own? Neither would be correct.
"Take *it* off" ("it" being the jacket, if it's obvious from context) would be fine.
"Put off" doesn't work. You *put* on clothes, but you *take* them off.
The only instance I can think of where "put off" would be when used as an expression.
"I was put off by the color of her shirt" - meaning "I really didn't like the color of her shirt" for example.
Yes, I believe soccer is the most popular sport here.
I heard about the Sweden vs. Italy world cup match, but I didn't know we won until you told me just now.
I don't know if people like me are common, but most people I personally know don't care about sports either. >>873
thanks. then when i said just take off, a person who was talked to would feel like being ordered to
take off (from a runway) if possible?
>I heard about the Sweden vs. Italy world cup match, but I didn't know we won until you told me just now.
uwahahahahaha(japanese expresion of laughing)
>I don't know if people like me are common, but most people I personally know don't care about sports either.
Really. Have you ever heard of Ibrahimovic, world famous FW player?
As you can see, he is valcan and islamic descent. he looks some kind of white but
pretty different from average swedes.
Does that something to do with swedish indifference to national squad?
you think Ibrahimovic is not one of you?
As for scandinavian soccer player, 18 year old genius boy, Martin Ødegaard is often featured.
He has 100% viking looks.
You must not have heard his name. >>874
If you just tell someone "take off" then unless you're pointing to their jacket,
it could be interpreted as you telling them to get lost (that is to say, to go away.)
You should say "take IT off" or "take THAT off" if you don't want to sound vague.
And if you want to make it a little nicer, you can add a "please" at the start or end of the sentence.
I have heard of Ibrahimovic, but only through news headlines and the likes.
I have very, very little interest in soccer, so naturally I know very little about it as well.
As for our supposed nationwide indifference to a multinational team,
I don't know for sure. But since Sweden seems to be dead set on being extremely politically correct,
I doubt that even people who aren't okay with it would want to speak out for fear of facing repercussions. We learned "take off" when we were junior high school students. I guess practical usage and sound match
are so important for making scentence checking the conversations. It is very tough for me to learn those phrasal verbs by heart because in general, each one has a lot of different meanings.
On top of that, I'm often at my wit's end for what is best when I choose one from among those which have similar meanings.
So, I make it a habit not to use them as much as possible. I don't think to read long sentence. >>880
Who are you referring to? Me? If so, I'm very happy with your comment.
What I keep in mind is to compose as long English sentences as possibe, no matter how redundant they are.lol
I've read a couple of books on writing techniques and they unanimously say," the shorter,the better when you write sentences."
However, I don't believe them because ironically, their sentences are in fact long when they develop their argument.
Making the most of relative pronouns and adverbs, I want to acquire a good command of English someday. >>872
Cherish your cherry.
Someday it will blossom.
Open your mind and you will be attracted by personalities. >>878
Japanese also sort of has them in the form of verbs such as 書き取る、走り出す、
and 飛び出す just to name a few.
But don't worry about having a hard time learning them, because to me,
these kinds of verbs don't make any sense either. When I first saw 引き取る
I saw "draw take" which I thought meant "pull in" or "reel in" and then it turned
out it meant "to take over/take custody of" which was a total surprise to me.
Expressions are another thing that are annoying for learners of any language.
Especially pinpointing the exact nuance of it. An English learner might find out
"oh my god" is an expression of surprise, but might not know you can also use it
in basically any scenario. You can use it when you're angry, when you're scared,
when you're bored, when you're happy, you name it. I'm sorry. I wrote it intense. >>883
Thank you for responding to my post. You must be a native speaker.
As an earnest learner of English, I'm a bit excited to have an opportunity to converse with you. lol
Frankly speaking, your story was literally an eye opener to me because I've never thought about how hard foreign people learn Japanese.
Now that I've realized we are even in that we are having a hard time in learning a second language, I'll follow your advice.
I'll study phrasal verbs in a more relaxed manner. Did I make myself understood? Sorry for my poor English!! Gaijins and its worshippers stink! >>885
I'm not a native speaker, though. I'm Swedish, but I've been speaking English
fluently for about 8 years now.
Although Nordic languages and English are extremely closely related,
so some of the most fluent non-natives you'll find are from Northern Europe.
I'm glad my little anecdote was interesting. But honestly, it must be just as hard
for Japanese people to learn English, since the two languages are basically total opposites.
Just today I thought about how hard it must be to wrap your head around the difference between
"in" and "on," especially in fluent usage. We say we're on a train, on a plane, and on a bike,
but we say we're in a house, in a car, in a good mood, in a rush, and so on.
I imagine it must also be really hard to get used to all the articles (a, an, the, etc.)
and needing to almost always use "I" and "you" when these are omitted almost all the time in Japanese.
Your English is perfectly understandable. The only mistake I can see is
"I've never thought about how hard foreign people learn Japanese"
because I assume you meant "how hard *it is for* foreign people *to* learn Japanese."
If not, then it's still a correct sentence, but it sounds weird. It implies all foreign people who learn Japanese
study it hard, and that you thought about how hard they study. Like I said, it's not wrong, but it sounds weird.
If you have any other questions about the English language then I'd be happy to answer them. Since November 18 ,I have been hospitalized for appendicitis and prohibited to eat anything. So, I miss my favorite foods very much. A-ha-n, a-ha-n, a-ha-n, a-ha-n, I'm not that familiar with 5ch/2ch (do you guys still call it 2ch, even now?)
but I'm wondering if there's a thread like this one but for Japanese learners to chat or have their writing corrected.
I don't see one in the thread list, but maybe I didn't look hard enough.
>>888
That sounds terrible. I hope you get better soon. I like IKEA, but I prefer Nitori.
I admit IKEA excels any other home centers at wooden furniture, but all other stuff in Nitori is superior to IKEA's counterpart.
*I'd appreciate it if you notice mistakes above. >>894
I admit (that) IKEA *is better* at *making* wooden furniture *than any other home center*,
but all other stuff(/everything else) *at* Nitori is superior to IKEA's counterparts.
The "that" is optional but excluding it is a little colloquial, likewise "all other stuff" is also
pretty colloquial while "everything else" is more formal in style.
There's nothing wrong with being colloquial, but "excel," "superior," and "counterpart"
are all more formal/less colloquial words. Mixing the styles isn't wrong, but it's very much
like writing 「ニトリのやつはIKEAのやつより上手いであります」
(Pardon me if I got that wrong, I just wanted to try to illustrate the difference if possible.) Nitori is so lame and everything looks so cheap... >>895
Thanks a lot ! You rock! >>887
I thank God for letting me meet a person who seems to be friendly and cheerful. lol
So, you are Swedish. Speaking of Sweden, my knowledge toward your country is limited to the one most ordinary Japanese people have.
Having said that, there are two things I'm most interested in about it.
One is that although you country is famous for its high-walfare system, what is a negative aspect about that ?
That's because I've learned that your people tend to get divorced easily.
And the other is how you treat old people when they get terminally ill because I personally think the concept of " vitalism" is now prevailing
in Japanese siciety, which is " the longer you live, the better it is." >>898
>One is that although you country is famous for its high-walfare system, what is a negative aspect about that ?
The first would be that it's very easy to abuse. You get quite a lot of money, especially if you live with your parents,
and if you meet certain criteria (for example, if you have a mental illness) you may not need to work at all to earn that money.
So there is a decent portion of the population that simply abuse the system and get money without working at all.
This is EXTREMELY prominent with immigrants who come here and simply act like parasites, never bothering to properly
learn the language or adopt to the culture, let alone work.
>That's because I've learned that your people tend to get divorced easily.
I don't know why that is, but it seems plausible. Divorce rates are going up in every western country, but if they're particularly
bad here then that might be because women almost always receive the best outcome from a divorce. They take 50% of
a pre-divorce household's assets and income and then (if they get custody of any children) they can also demand alimony
from the husband. Maybe divorce rates are also higher because we are a very atheist country that don't see marriage as anything
holy that shouldn't be broken because God doesn't want us to.
>And the other is how you treat old people when they get terminally ill
In the west, while we do treat the elderly nicely or at least decently, we definitely don't
show them the same level of respect as Japanese people do.
I believe it's very common (not in every case, but still common) for old people to be put into
retirement homes so they'll be cared for by the staff there. I don't know whether the old person's
pension pays for the care or if their children pay for it, but it definitely isn't common for old people
to live with their children and grandchildren here. ID with HAPPY. what is this? >>900
Happy day happy day!\(^ω^)/
I always love at first sight.
In izakaya,very very beautiful girls was sitting at a next table.
But I was with girl friends,so I couldn't nampa.
I'm sad. >>895
i think you are a good English teacher
you seem to understand Japanese pretty >>887
German also appears to similar to English
that means German is similar to Swedish? 書き直し
I'm >>902
>>895
I think you are a good English teacher for Japanese
Because you seem to understand Japanese pretty much >>903
They're all in the same language family; the Germanic language family.
However, I think Swedish and English are much more similar than German and either of the other two.
German has grammatical genders and is, in my opinion, much more complex than English.
However, because they're all related and share some vocabulary, if you speak any of these three
languages then learning one of the other ones should be easy.
That said, I don't speak German as I don't have any interest in the language.
>>902
>>904
Thank you for the compliment, however I would not be confident as a teacher since my path to
English fluency is primarily through exposure and knowing what "feels" right rather than the
technicalities that make languages work as they work, so if someone were to ask me questions
that involved linguistic terms beyond my current (basic) understanding I would be completely
unable to answer them.
Furthermore, I can only speak Japanese at roughly an intermediate level, and I'd probably make
many mistakes while doing so. It must be like the relationship between Japanese and Koreans.
Both can easily master the other language because of grammatical similarities.
By the way,your Japanese is not in intermediate level but in completely advanced level.
I have to admit that your Japanese is far better than my English as a second language to the extent that it is hard to believe that you are non-japanese. >>905
I learned German a little at college as a Second Language program
so I might kind of suitable for Swedish to learn
> I can only speak Japanese at roughly
You dont look like that way
You appear to understand some phrase that the Japanese English learners
are commonly confused when speaking English >>925
No moral like animal. >>907
I could likely hold a conversation in Japanese, but I'd sound very unnatural
and I would no doubt make some mistakes.
I mean, I would definitely be way better off than a fresh-off-the-boat English
teacher who barely speaks a word of Japanese, and I'd at least try not to say
anything rude and not translate everything mentally (I know you don't need to
say 私 and 貴方 like we do in English) but I'd still only barely manage. >>825
Who knows? We would need more information. Just based on what you said, probably not.
Did he give a reason for inviting you?
>>843
I would choose transforming power.

The milk bags are sturdy enough that they don't break easily just from carrying them around.
You put the entire bag into the pitcher, and then cut the corner, so there's no chance to spill until it's
in a stable container. I just realized there is no cap though. The hole is just exposed all the time.
That seems like it would be a problem.
>>861
You can't escape trolls on the internet. Best to ignore them. >>864
"take off" is completely right. "put off" sounds really weird. If you said that, people
wouldn't understand.
>>909
That's pretty much where I am too. I studied Japanese for 4 years, but I've forgotten
a lot of it in the last 10 years. On a radio program, one japanese university professor was talking about his experience.
He said "take off" in his class. Then one foreign student, probably from eastern europe corrected a
mistake and taught him "put off" ,laughing.
"Take off" would mean "fly from a runway" in that case .
Something didn't seem right for me and I looked it up on the dictionary and found out "take off"
seemed to be correct.
From his story, it's not clear wheter he said just "take off" or "take off objective (for example,
coat)"
So I wanted to confirm if "put off" makes sense when it's used as intransitive verb.
>>911
take off your coat○
put off your coat×
how about
take off ?
put off?
All in all, even English speaking Europeans sometimes make a mistake.
Japanese are not confident about English, so the proffessor assumed he made a mistake. >>712
If you just say "put off" or "take off" by itself without more to the sentence, then "put off" doesn't
mean anything, and the only way to interpret "take off" is telling the person to go away, just like
our Swedish friend said.
If you say "take it off," it is colloquially understood to mean "take your clothes off."
I can't think of a situation where a single phrase could be confused for either taking off clothes, or
flying in an airplane. >>912
Also, "put off" is never going to be talking about an airport runway. I've been admitted to hospital for four days.
I'm so bored that I spent almost all the daytime sleeping.
I want to practice English writing,but there is nothing to write about . The best way to improve writing skills is paraphrase the sentences in grammar books.
For instance if there is a sentence like "I wish I lived near my school", then you gonna write sentences using this phrase relating to your life such as "I wish I could leave the hospital now. " >>915
Are you the one with appendicitis? I hope you feel better soon. Are there any cute nurses? >>915
By the way, "spent" can also be used and the sentence is correct, however the meaning
is slightly different. If you say "spent" then you already went through the whole day with
just sleeping.
If you say "spend," then you have already been sleeping in the day, but it also means you're
still in the middle of doing that, too.
全部の日寝た vs 全部の日寝ている So, that "spend" is same as "have been spending", right? Looks like you guys have been working hard on teaching and learning
how to write good English. Keep up the good work! >>939
Talking about wether is fine isn't it? Sex sex sex on the beach! Six sex acts with a bitch! I never get sick of sex with a bitch! Bitch has an amazing blowjob skill Jack and Pattie went to the mall
They got themselves a big pink vibrator
Jack wanted to jack off with it
But Pattie insisted he used it on her
Jack the Jackoff king is famous at school
For his ability to jack off several times in a row
While Pattie is renowned for her performance
For she excels in her performance of petting
Any guy she happens to spot on the street
Oh well, they just love to do
Six sex acts with sick bitches and guys on the beach. >>899
I apologize for the late reply and thanks for such a detailed explanation.
Honestly, I left my dictionary in my workplace, so may make a lot of typos, which means I can't make even a single sentence without the dictionary. lol
You know, I don't mind telling people how stupid I am at all because one of my life philosophies is " Honesty is the best policy."
Oh, it's almost time that I have to go see the doctor. I'll write the rest of my reply later. I know how you feel and I may react the same way, but it hasn't passed even 24 hours, so you
don't need to be sorry. This reminds of the train that left 20 seconds earlier than departure time
and appolized, whichmade the headlines in western media.
Do you mean you use a paper dictionary or a portable electronic dictionary? In either case,
you can use online dictionary as long as you have Internet access. I just thought it doesn't matter if you left
at your workplace. Anyway, you don't have to reply to me (and don't be sorry about not replying to me).
I just wanted to write something in English. Keep enjoying conversation with the person from Sweden. I wonder how foreign people living in Japan make Japanese friends.
One day, I was chatting with my friends from Europe at a café, then a man suddenly approached and asked us how we got to know each other.
He told us that he married a Japanese woman and moved to Japan from America a few months ago. He says it's hard for him to find a community where he can get Japanese friends. I couldn't give him good advice.. Good morning, everyone.
Or rather, I suppose it's late afternoon or early nighttime for you, but still.
It's snowing here! It's snowing a lot, actually.
It's been a long time since it snowed in November, and really long since it
snowed this much. Although knowing the local weather here, it'll all melt
away in a couple of days.
Shame, since I love snow.
>>917
I do this for Japanese too and it seems to work pretty well.
>>928
Don't worry too much about spelling errors. Even if you misspell something
and end up making it into another word, people who are fluent in a language
can correct those errors in their head and figure out what you meant.
And in the worst case when the spelling really does make it hard to tell what
you're trying to say, we can always just ask you to clarify what word you meant.
You can't learn a language without making a lot of mistakes. Believe me, I know.
>>930
I'm curious how non-Japanese people make friends with Japanese people in general.
Even over the net, even when you can speak decent Japanese and he can speak decent English,
it seems like making friends is really difficult. I wonder if this is just something westerners
like myself think is a shame or if there are a lot of Japanese people who wish they could
make foreign friends too. Well that’s good. Gaijins should stay with gaijins. >>956
What kind of study is that? l wanna sex with girls who are my taste. >>952
Do you really need your dictionary for a
sentence?
Can't believe that.
Actually you are good writer. >>983
But,my ex was cheating on me. Gaijins,should take care some sniffer's
walking around here.
みなさん"嗅ぎ野郎"に注意してください! I'm dating with a white whom I met on Tinder tomorrow.
It's good if I could have sex with her after dinner. There is a latin-looking gaijin in the gym and he has beeing hogging the latpull down machine for over 30 minutes now. So annoying. So stinky. So gaijin. So disgusting. He is not only stinky (yas! So stinky af) but also he doesn’t wipe off sweats after using machines and put quipments back to the original postions. So rude. >>940
Is he more buff than you?
If so,he desearves it. >>942
He is the biggest in the gym. But that doen’t necessarliy mean that he can get away with anything! So gaijins in Japan. It’s called “gaijin smash” you know. Strongness is only justice in the gym.
So sad. >>931
How nice of you to say so! By the way, Are you the person from Sweden, or >>929?
I'm cofused over who is who. lol
I tried to respond to >>899 last night, but gave up halfway because I repeated trials and errors again and again to come up with appropriate expressions.
As a result, I stayed up until 2 o'clock and my struggle came to a dead end. You see, my job starts at 7 o'clock.
Bingo!! I overslept and was late for work. What a fantastic day I had today! >>946
Yep, I'm the same guy. You can tell by the ID at the end of my post.
What kind of expressions were you trying to come up with?
Sorry to hear you overslept. I hope you manage to do well at work, even with so little sleep.
I woke up at 8, then went for a walk at 10 to enjoy all the snow we're getting here
for once, and then I came back at around 11:30.
I'm not sure why but all this snow has put me in a really good mood.
But I'm a little sad knowing that it won't last. There's been a trend the last few years
where the snow melts just after a few days, then we have long periods without any
snow. And since I plan on going to Tokyo again this year during the period where
we're most likely to see snow that sticks around, I bet I won't be seeing much more snow than this. >>947
Correction: not the end of my post, the ID within brackets
(6d63-EvbJ) For those which keep posting annoying comments here, that is FUCKING gaijins,
This is a thread for specifically stinky gaijins. Never come back to this thread.
Chat in English (外人/害人専用) Part1
http://lavender.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/english/1369567802/ do you know jana novotna who passed 2days ago.
i am so sad.. >>941
No!嗅ぎ野郎!
You are a dust. >>952
You should post there.Coz you're a 害人. i haven't eaten "chip star" from YBC, Yamazaki Biscuit Co., so i tried it out yesterday.
at first, it tasted nothing to me. Just a couple of hours ago someone recommended me to come here. Though, from what I see, here is nothing interesting. I’d better go somewhere else. Seems like I rather like hiking, trekking, mountain-climbing and what not. It was arm day.
I got a nice pump. I wanna ask a question to American.
Which food do you prefer nachos or sushi? I guess you need another message board for your unlimited desire.
So!
http://jbbs.shitaraba.net/study/13024/ >>920
Bingo!
>>939
Good luck. What kind of place are you going to?
>>954
I love hiking and spending time outdoors. I used to go out in the woods a lot more before I moved
to where I am living now. I'm in the city now, so it's harder to do those things, and my knees have
been giving me trouble lately.
>>956
I like both but I guess it depends on my mood. Most of the time I'd probably pick sushi. >>958
you should pickup natto. >>959
I have never been able to bring myself to try natto. I can't get over how it looks. why western people hate sticky foods, like natto ,raw okura,yama-imo? >>961
I think mostly it's just the unfamiliar texture. We don't have any foods similar
to that, so there's nothing to compare to. Personally, natto reminds me of slimy litle eggs
from the movie Aliens. >>961 >>962
Actually okra is common in southern and creole cooking. It's used in things like gumbo. >>964
Why bother with a second thread that nobody ever goes to? The last two posts
were a month apart, and it's been a year since the one before that. >>966
I don't think I've had it raw, but I have eaten it pickled and in tempura, as well as
gumbo like I mentioned, and jambalaya (which is very similar). >>966 >>967
Okra is okay, but it's not my favorite. The texture is weird, with all the little seeds
coming out when you bite it. My wife likes it though. by the way this thread is much busier now. it used to be 人稲 ↑ You're a nice guy, retarded though.
just beat it. >>964

"Put off" is also a phrasal verb but it has a completely different meaning than what you have stated; it means to postpone, leave till/for later, procrastinate, delay, etc.
This is different than the phrase "to be put off by" which isn't actually a phrasal verb

>Swedish and English are much more similar than German
As a native English speaker who doesn't know German or Swedish, German definitely sounds closer to English than Swedish to me.
It could just be the shared vocab or the lack of exposure to Swedish,
but there are times when I hear a German sentence and can almost decipher it whereas I can't say the same for Swedish.

I can see an instance where "take off" could be interpreted as a command to take an airplane off, but it would need to be in the context of aviation. For example a VIP passenger telling a pilot to take off.
Of course such a situation is really rare, and I'm not surprised if a native speaker couldn't think it up.
As a side note, "take off" can be generalized to mean to depart. "We're taking off" doesn't strictly have to mean that an airplane is taking off; it could mean that a boat is leaving port or a group is about to leave. >>974
Oh yeah, you're right. I know "put off" can be used to mean "postpone something"
but I was thinking of it in a context where you'd only say "put off" and nothing else.
I know "be put off by" isn't a verbal phrase either, but it's the only other instance I could
think of where "put off" means anything.
I can roughly understand some German sentences as well, but the average English-only
speaker might have an easier time understanding German due to exposure they may have
gotten from it being spoken in countless WW2 movies and such. At the very least, they'll
be more familiar with how German sounds than how Swedish sounds, so they can adjust a
little to the radically different pronunciation and try to pick out words here and there.
As for the vocab, both English and Swedish share a lot of borrowed vocabulary from German. >>975
You must get out ouf here, now. >>1034
That's you.Wanker. Very notice!For the sniffers. i got to know "童貞を殺すセーター(ニット)"(a sweater to kill the virgins) last night.
it might be the cutting edge of the sweater design and be considered fashionable,
but i felt that a woman's body is exposed so much that it is simply a sweater to bewilder the virgins. Although I've created a mess,
you can use below as a new thread.
I've been making mistakes here and there today.
Obviously it's not my day...

Oh, there is one thing I can't help you with. It's concerning money.
You see, I'm very poor, so plase knock on someone else's door when you need money, OK/ i got up after seeing a purest dream,,, i want to comeback these nostalgy time..(;w;) >>997
I know the feeling. Unfortunately, the truth is we can never go back, and if you spend your energy
trying to, you'll just stress yourself out and get depressed.
It's better to focus on making your life into something that makes the "you" of today happy. but i want to cherish these pure feelings and memories(;;) このスレッドは1000を超えました。
