Na, Ni, Nu, Ne, No...no she didn't!

(Good Afternoon)
こんにちは、

I hope everyone has had a good afternoon so far. It's getting close to application time for my Undergraduate scholarship to Japan. I'm getting excited, hopefully I have a shot. Anyway, lets learn some Japanese.

Let's get started shall we?

Review:

ーーーーーーたさかあ
　ー　ーーーちしきい
　ーーーーーつすくう
　ー　ーーーてせけえ
ーーーーーーとそこお

な (Na), sounds like the na when you sing and fill in words, the a is pronounced soft rather than hard.　に (Ni), sounds like knee. Really easy one.　う (Nu), think of something new.　ね (Ne), sounds like the ne, in net.　の (No), this one is easy. Just say it as you would in English.

ーーーーーなたさかあ
　ー　ーーにちしきい
　ーーーーうつすくう
　ー　ーーねてせけえ
ーーーーーのとそこお
ー

Easy, huh? If your having trouble remembering what the characters look like, try repeatedly writing them down. It's a pain, but it does work.

JWoTD:
Kanji: 得意
Hiragana: とくい
Romaji: tokui
Definition: pride; triumph; one's forte

One last thing for today, go to the google language tools. (Here) Then set it up for Japanese, and then English. Now type in some of the characters you know. Please have your language bar set up to hiragana or visit this site to turn you romaji into hiragana. Then copy and paste into the google translator. Try different combonations and see what you get.

Examples:

のこ= Buttress
つての= The influence
ちき= Childishness

Thanks for your time and hope this helped. :)


じゃまた。
