Hi im new.... want to learn japanese
Hello:) i want to learn japanese can someone give some good words to use??:D |
Well, instead of words I can give you the name of a program. If I remember correctly its 'bonjour' japanese. Taught me a little more than I do.
But in the meantime...konnichiwa is hello, Ohayoo is good morning, Kombanwa is good afternoon, and my favourite- Oyasuminasai is goodnight. |
"konnichiwa" is good afternoon, not hello. Just wanted to clear that up so someone doesn't think you're an idiot when you say good afternoon at 7:00 AM

Banana and Tomato are the same as English with a slight accent, and tomato is spoken using the british 'a' sound which is 'ah'.
Okini means thank you in Kansai, hidari means left, and migi means right, kawa means river, and cheeky means skebe. I could write a book but it's bed time on this side:) |

I was always confused with the L and R's.
Aligato sounds like it, but I believe it is Arigato. Is that correct? I remeber asking the Saty supermarket check out chick where the bacon was. With an Aussie accent, it tends to sound like Baicon, so she led me to the vege section and introduced me to a monster size daicon! We had a good laugh:mtongue: |
