do you view Sundays that way? When I was a junior high school and high school student, I hated Sunday nights cos that Monday is coming soon and the school starts again. Do you know Japanese anime called "Chibi Maruko-chan" and "Sazae-san"? both animes were (and are) on TV starts from 18:00~18:30~19:00, so for me (and I guess for quite a few Japanese) these anime means Sunday nights. Ive been having a really busy days for the past few weeks but my long holidays are coming soon! The Golden Week! but I am not going to travel much, cos there will be too many people anywhere. I hate to be in a long que... so instead of holidayING, Im going to do some casual job! Something fun and weird. Have a good day Koir san:) :ywave: |

But ages are more like times. You can say "over 2.0001 seconds" and it still makes sense because seconds can also be counted in milliseconds. Basically 1 hour = 60 minutes = 3600 seconds but there's no valid way of counting people or objects based on the parts they are made up of. Particularly with the age 18, once you turn 18, your papers (driving license, passport etc) become valid ID to enter bars and pubs, so definitely the date of your birthday is like a line. Quote:
Your explanation sounds perfect to me. Quote:
*laughs* I think your skydiving scenario is OK. A lot of people might still ask "How old were you then?" but for the situation "how young were you" would fit; because the stress of the conversation is that the kid was exceptionally young to be going skydiving! |

I heard an american man said the other day "She go...and He go..." instead of S/he goes/ Quote:
I see... so the word "more" can be used for counting numbers? so if I want to use 5.5 % or something like that kind of number I should use "over" ? Quote:
It will highlight their age and some wouldn't like it. Quote:

what's よゆう in English?
Hi;)
Can any one tell me how to say "気持ちに余裕がなかった" in English? I wanted to say this when I... I had a few demanding customers and I was very upset and tired and all... so I was totally stressed out and could get angry so easily. I am usually a happy person but at that time, I was not smiling much... A friend of mine mentioned about it so I wanted to tell her「あの時は気持ちに余裕がなかったんだよね~」but I couldn't ! English is not easy! I learnt new words today. "cob" and "cod" but easily forget which is which... which is fish!? |
