Hi FooFlowers san, just try any hiragana or katakana there, what about write your name in Japanese?

Hi, Nekozawa san, so I will talk with you there;-) では　そちらで　おはなし　しましょう！

ARose san, Thank you for your comment.
mmm interesting.

so if I said "I am well thanks", then you want me put the stick out of my butt?? (warau!)
Well then we Japanese who are learning English have to be very careful
what to say right?
Can you give us (English learners) some advise?

Am I right to think....

so basically it's OK to say "fine", but to show our friendliness or if it's a casual situation,
it's no problem to say "Good", but some people might think "Good" isn't proper (grammertically?)
and they prefer to hear we say "fine" or "well", but also how you say it is very important.


...very interesting.

We dont have that many ways to greet in Japanese.
Do you know how we say in Jpn for "How are you"?


If you think "genki desuka?"

...you are right, but actually we (I think I should say "I") don't say "genki (desuka)?" very often.

oops I have to go to bed, I have to get up early in the morning!!

thank you everyone, your comments are all very interesting and very helpful.

aligato!
