yeah, okay, and the last means, and you? or how are you?

I normally do not separate words, even in writing.

Eh. Romanji is crap anyhow. I hadn't noticed the error, although I've caught it now. I'll fix it. And you've never heard me speak. *shrug* I don't claim to have a high proficiency. I've studied the language on and off for about eight years. I won't need to speak English in Japan to get by, and that really is all that's important.

It does kinda.? I know it means it's a question. But even then there's a period after ka.

ah, ok.

thank you.

I wonder if it shouldn't be anata wa?

Because anata means you.
hmmm.. I know ogenki desu ka. -means how are you.

I'm guessing you mean something like "and you?"
which I think would be:

Anata wa ikaga?
That's what about.com says.

Is that right or wrong?

if you want formality...."anata wa ikaga" would be right...
for even more formal x3 you could use "-person's name- wa ikaga desu ka"
x3

thoughh yeaaah just "anata wa" ish okie~~~

probably wrote it as it sounds (cause the 'u' on 'desu' is silent as you know)

as for 'anawa' I think (s)he meant 'anta wa' which basically means "and you?"

...anta is colliqual/casual form of "anata"
