i would love for it to be in japanese.
Can you translate it to Japanese...

in exchange i can teach you english (i am a native teacher) using skype or msn.
skype: genius7001 and msn: perry7770@hotmail.co.uk
2 x 2 hour classes for the translation (add your name to it too)
and after you can earn more classes for other things

i briefly translated the 'for advanced students' page... but then there're things/ words i'm not sure which are highlighted in red... it's all in jap words instead of romaji, but i can re-type them if you prefer...

PS: i'm not an native speaker, merely high-school student who has learnt for few years

What are Jap words?

Also, how the heck do you type furigana?

Also, this guy is a spammer/troll who only came here to pimp his site. Better to not help him

isn't spam when people send random products to your email without consent?
promotion is a natural part of the internet and the amount of people trading links and giving free products to people who need them only proves this even more.
someone asks for an english book, i give it to them. this is the point of forums.
I hope you enjoy your complaint, because you
Just have done it for the last time.
Now, the top post is hilarious because someone translated it on the same page.
an idiom is needed.......
humble pie? put your foot in it? don't count your chickens?
keaton.... i eat spam like you for breakfast

You eat spam for breakfast? Gross. You should really try a small glass of orange juice and something from the whole grains group, I recommend Cheerios.

I've just complained for the last time - what, is someone coming to stop me?

I consider it spam when someone comes on a forum and markets their stuff without our consent. When your first and only posts are links to your book, it's obvious you're not here to engage in any meaningful discussion.

Promotion is a natural part of business - and no one likes promoters.

So you joined JF for the soul purpose of translating this? And how many years have you been studying?

I smell shenanigans.

1. as in jap words i was thinking hiragana/ kanji... sorry i wasn't paying attention when i typed it.

2. translating is not my soul purpose for joining JF, i love japanese culture [traditional culture/ language/ manga/ anime/ fashion]
but my school holiday has started only a week & i already feel bored... as my parents were pestering me about being productive... i thought doing some translation [which's also my hobby from time to time] can improve my jap skills + help out other... especially when some of my fds are going to japan as exchange students in the holiday, i have to do something to catch up with them... =.=

3. i'll say i've only learn 3yrs, 'cause the teacher practically wasted the 1st yr'... always being absent/ busy & ditched our class

4. about typing furigana in your PC... can't remember how did i install it but if you're using XP/ Vista, i think you can add it through the language bar...
