You're right. に/で is still sometimes a careless mistake I make.

Also I see why JohnBraden thought of using 見る as the verb, since he was talking about 絵本, not 本.
That's a good point; I don't know the answer. I didn't notice the え before ほん, which is why my "corrections" all just said ほん.[/quote]

Could anyone tell me the meaning of these, please? I know it's Katakana and maybe it sounds like chiwija, anyone have an idea?

Thanks

It says "Chijira"



It's not in my Japanese dictionary so I don't know what it means though... Maybe it's a foreign (non-Japanese) word just written in Katakana?


Hey, does this rag smell like chloroform?

Thank you very much. Could you tell me about the meaning? It was supposed to be my name that is Itziar, but sounds like Ichiar...

I would phonetically spell your name in Katakana as;
イチアー
Which is pronounced "Ichiaa" (elongated "a" to act as the final 'r', if that makes sense.)

That clears alot of things up! Another case of broken japanese then? This one really baffled me. As always, your help and that of the forum is greatly appreciated. Thank you!


I'm sorry for all the bad stuff I said and all the feelings I hurt.. Please forgive me
