I don't know why you would bother to even type a message out in English using Japanese output when you could just press Shift+Alt and do it without the annoying dotted line and having to press the enter key every two seconds but whatever
...I just switch back to English when I want to type in English. It takes 2 clicks.
I'm surprised they even knew the word "Watashi" or, are you just being generous? Tell them Kisama means 'super cute' get yourself an inside joke. [sp]kisama means what I think it means, right...?[/sp]

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;24835516]Oh god help me... Someone at my school saw my avatar art for roleplaying on my computer, and for a month they would always refer me as, "NEKO!"

What the fuck does all this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ mean anyway?
I went to Japan (I'm white), and I met a Japanese guy there who I hung out with and whenever he saw a dog or cat he'd yell, "Kawaiii!!". Every time he did that I cringed so hard, and he's Japanese.

I tried to learn Japanese. Shit is hard so I quit. quitter4life.
[QUOTE=Unreliable;24835458]One fourth of my school is scene kids. Three quarters of the scene population wants to be Japanese. All of that population is obese.

I personally learned hiragana and katakanaa and a little grammar just so I could play jap pokemon. One of my friends is a serious weeaboo and he has been learning japanese for 3+ years, he is fluent.

I'd punch anyone straight in the face who would say "nyaa" in public.
To be honest, I'm roughly 1/8th Japanese, Yet I don't care so much about learning the actual language. I took Japanese class a few times, Three years to be exact, Failed each time.... Everyone in the class only wanted to be there because they watch anime or read manga. I'm doing it because it's the only language that's was legal in my school system, otherwise I could have been speaking general Filipino like the rest of my family does. I hate weaboos mainly because they disgrace a whole race. Regardless of if they are that race or not. I don't care if your Japanese, Don't go ahead and think everything you learned in Animes reflects off current day values in Japan. Don't don't even argue about how you know more then me just because you can say shit like "Desu" and "Konnichiwa". Do proper research. My point mainly, They only shoot so far for Japanese Class, then bomb it because they assume that It's easy to learn. "Oh, I can watch Japanese Anime and it has subtitles so maybe I can learn this way". They don't understand that learning a language takes years. Not a week. Even if you were able to complete one year, You only know about the same amount of crap a grade school child knows in Japan. Kawaii~Desu Desu, ^____^ and ~Nyaaaaaaaaaaa. is all fucking sunshine and rainbows. But there's a fine line between real Japan, And all that stuff you see on TV. But seriously, some people just get caught up all in this because everything seems so easy as learn like how to use chopsticks, watch anime and read translated manga and actually read it correctly from right to left.
OP, show them [url=http://ichi2.net/anki/]this[/url]. It's a pretty good japanese learning tool. Also tell them to at least the kana and some kanji first.

Sounds about right.
I am quarter Irish, Quarter Polish, Quarter Italian and Quarter English but I live in Scotland. I don't know which accent to pick. And the only language I have bothered to learn is Polish, I kept speaking Polish in French class to piss off the teacher.
[QUOTE=Atchell;24835425]This thread made me >____>;[/QUOTE] I'm sorry, but what does that even mean? Japanese emoticons confuse the hell out of me.

[QUOTE=zerothefallen;24835353]Who actually says all that kawaii desu shit in RL[/QUOTE] WARNING! THIS VIDEO MAY MAKE YOU CRINGE! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VW0LVEeb0WA[/media] She literally says 'kawaii' in the first 30 seconds. And that's not the only video that she does this shit in.
How can you be 'quarter' a nationality? End of the day your blood isn't running around with a flag in it's hand, you're a person from where you were born. Not from a combination of where your parents were born however great it sounds.
Can I ask OP, does ChinChin really mean dick? I got a detention for it in compulsory Japanese once
[QUOTE=kurry;24837328]How can you be 'quarter' a nationality? End of the day your blood isn't running around with a flag in it's hand, you're a person from where you were born. Not from a combination of where your parents were born however great it sounds.[/QUOTE] I have asked myself this question. I have come to the conclusion that there are two types of nationality; where you were actually born, and the type of national blood. Because there are many types of people from German or Japanese ect. families. There is a case of this as my friend who has a Russian family (mother and father moved to America from Russia) but was born in America. Does this make him American and not Russian?
If it does, tell them its a different way of saying cute except more meaningfull
[QUOTE=teeheeV2;24837334]Can I ask OP, does ChinChin really mean dick? I got a detention for it in compulsory Japanese once[/QUOTE] You'd be correct. There are some other slang ways to say dick. chinko chimpo chimpoko Just letting you know. They pretty much sum up to saying things like Johnson and wiener in English.

It's random depending on if it's morning or day (Because somehow when I wake up, I have that authentic Filipino accent then as the day progresses I have that normal stereotypical American Accent. However, that's Natural. I can also force a semi-decent British accent and a pretty convincing Australian accent. I'm still trying to get down the Brooklyn Accent but it's kinda hard to sustain longer then a few minutes.
[QUOTE=TurbisV2;24837070]I'd punch anyone straight in the face who would say "nyaa" in public.[/QUOTE] I say nyaa, but only as a reflex to express discomfort. I have no effing clue what it's supposed to mean in japspeak.
