Yes, many high-schools here do have corridors with lockers in them as you
describe. But not all. My high-school, for example, did not have lockers
at all. They gave you a separate set of books in the classroom and you had
a set at home as well. Therefore, you did not need to carry any books.

>>349
We tend not to have lockers in classrooms here. If we had lockers (past
tense, I am no longer in high-school), they would be in hallways. Going
into another classroom in between classes would just be bothersome and
cause problems for the instructors.

-------

If anyone here plans on going to an American school, make sure to choose
one in a good neighborhood. Some of the others can be pretty rough. The
teachers won't care as much about your wellbeing in a school in a bad
neighborhood either, most likely.

Do not expect things to be as they are in high-school dramas. They're just
that, written dramas. They're completely fictional. Things aren't like that.

I heard somewhere White and African American don't mingle much at school.
They sure spend some time together but that's just bare minimum such as
after school football practice and other school activities.

Other than that in their free time, they don't really mingle.
In a class room, white and black people sit sperately unconciously.

at th bottom of their heart.

I can't really provide you with an accurate time-frame; first it started
with them banning everyone from my ISP (*.rr.com), so I began using proxies
to connect. Eventually they managed to ban every proxy I had, and I couldn't
find one that would work, and wasn't particularly motivated to try. It
was for quite a while.

>>368
Not necessarily. While this is certainly true for a large portion of
people of different races, there are many who do choose to intermingle
with those of other races. I was one of the people that would do this.
Many of my best friends growing up were of other races.

As for the others, I think it's more of a subconscious action than anything.
Most people are brought up amongst people of their own race, and tend
to flock toward them in social environments and otherwise. My mother
ran a daycare when I was small, and I was raised in a very multicultural
environment. I can only assume this had some impact on me, as I do not
feel the urge to mingle with people of any particular race.

>>371 put it rather well.

nvm, I'm an idiot. apparently my lines were too long. my ISP was blocked before tho.

So I go to a public school in Chicago and it is very very diverse. Here are my estimates: 25% white, 25% black, 25% hispanic, 20% asian, 5% other.
I hangout with tons of different people at school and I have plenty of friends across every ethnicity. However, it is true that outside of school I hangout mostly with other white kids.
My school is a little different from other Chicago public school though because you need to take an entrance exam and get at least a certain score to attend.
So pretty much everyone is intelligent and therefore we all have common academic backgrounds.
Also my high school teaches 5 different languages: Japanese, Chinese, French, Spanish, and Latin.

>>349
Actually at my school the girls wear less make-up then the girls at the Japanese high school I went to.
However, since we don't have to wear uniforms at my school the girls definitely show off through fashion. This of course is in general, there are also girls that wear lots of make-up/don't wear flashy clothes.

This idea is very impressive. Had I known about it!
I used to carry and bring back all the text books and note books everyday.
At least I could have left them at school. And bring them back home
if necessary. I wonder why I didn't come up with this idea.
And I'm not sure everyone had his/her own key to his/her locker. It shoud have been.

Mine was similar as well. It was a state-funded public school, but
you had to apply to be accepted, and that was dependent on your
record, etc. As such, it was pretty small, to spite the fact I live in
a populated area. The number of students was capped somewhere between
500-560 at all times, and there was a waiting line to be accepted.
A large number of people made it through the screening process that definitely
should not have, however. Most of them found out that you actually
have to do work, and its not all fun and games with the laptop they
lend you each year, and go back to their zoned school (this was
a magnet school).

Race estimates: 40% White, 30% Black, 25% Hispanic, 5% Asian. Yeah,
there doesn't seem to be many Asians here in comparison to those of
other races.

There were some middle easterners at my school as well, of course, but
not a significant number of them it seemed. Maybe 1-2%.

I can usually tell by looking at someone whether they are Caucasian or
from the middle east. Armenians kind of do look more middle eastern, I
know what you mean. It's kind of hard to explain, though.

So, is Jap really a derogatory term? I was guessing that Jap was _kind of_ like "gaijin".
To us Japanese, gaijin is just a normal word for foreigner but many foreigners think it's
rude/offensive.
We understand why, but we still use the word gaijin when just talking with friends.

Except for the fact that I haven't lived in this area my entire life.
I've moved around a lot. Areas I've lived in previously have had quite
a few Asians. A failure of a jab at me, but nice try.

>>405
Yes, some foreigners that know its meaning do take offense to "gaijin."
It further separates us, singling us out as outsiders. People that take
offense to this will prefer "gaikokujin" instead. Personally, however,
I don't care either way. It doesn't bother me.

408:アメリカ人
08/10/11 23:13:40

"Jap" is most definitely a derogatory term since it was commonly used to refer to Japanese people in WWII
(i.e. "kill those Japs, piece of shit Japs, etc.").
As Ether said, some foreigners don't like being called a gaijin but I found it extremely funny.
I even referred to other foreigners as gaijin in Japan as a joke.
It's all about context.

Completely different topic, but here's a question:
If you (a Japanese person) would want a Westerner(American/British/Australian) to learn only one thing about Japan, what would it be?

Two seperate sets of books both in school and at home? Gimme a break.
That's a waste of state funds. Even a chimpanzee like me can calculate
that the budget needed bulges to twice as much.

I was a very serious student.I wasn't the one who tries to look cool by acting like a
delinquent. The delinquent type of students left textbooks
in class room if there's no homework on the subjects. I was a very serious student
so I brought back every textbooks I took to school on any day even there was no homework involving
the subjects because leaving textbooks in class room means that you don't
study the subjects at home. Yes, more often than not, if there were no
homework on the subjects, you don't study the subjects at home so it might be natural
to leave the text book but that means you don't review voluntarily what you learned
in the class on the day. So I brought back all the textbooks home.

Bringing back all textbooks home on any given day was tough. First
they were heavy and second, that made my school bag look very
thick and that's considered not cool. The bulged bag was called a "pig bag"
back then. In my school days and maybe even now the junior highg and high school
school bag is considered cool if it looked as thin as it could.

I would say that Japanese people aren't too assertive, too direct
compared to western people, especially American people.
I heard people in UK and German have kind of same kind of mentality as Japan,
being kind of reserved, though.

My image on American peoople is they speak what they think directly and
emotionally and that sounds sometimes arrogant and pusy and too direct.

Armenians are halfway between europe and east asian in geographical
aspect. Most likely they looks like middle easeasteners on west
coast like Syria and Jordan. Armenians are chiristians like europeans.

In census aspect they are white (even iranians and iraqis and
north africans in america are white).
In general they are sometimes welcomed in white society
and sometimes not white. some Armenians are not percieved as white
merely from outer appearance.
From nordicist point of view they are absolutely non-white.

That's my assumption.

Ether and other foreigners, who do you want to vote for
as the president.
As is expected do you guys plan to vote for Brian Holland?

Digressing from the subject, I wonder whether the name Holland comes
from Dutch people in netherland or British people from netherland.

And Dutch people seem to be pretty laughing stock of Europe and they
tend not to be fit in anger like Koreans.
They are many negative words from Dutch.
"go dutch" "dutch wife" "dutch roll" and so on.
Dutch's pride won't be hurt?


418:名無しさん@英語勉強中

And the word Dutch itself is doubtful. LOL

419:イギリス人
08/10/12 02:32:45
>>417
The surname 'Holland' originated Anglo-Saxon times, in Britain. It's
completely unrelated to the Holland region in the Netherlands (the region's
name comes from the old Dutch word 'holtland', whereas the surname
apparently comes from the Anglo-Saxon word 'hough' with a territorial
suffix.

The Netherlands itself is a really nice place, with friendly people. It
can be a bit crazy there, sometimes, though.

Personally I can't stand any of the candidates. I usually don't like
to get into political discussions, as they nearly always end in pointless
arguments, but I'll speak a little on the subject.

As far as the presidential election is concerned, either McCain or Obama
will win in my country. Most likely the latter. I have a fairly negative
opinion of both of them.

McCain seeks to continue Bush's policies, which
quite obviously haven't been working too well for us. He's essentially
Bush v2.0. Furthermore, his choice for Vice President, Palin, has absolutely
no experience and considers 'being able to see Russia' from Alaska as
'foreign policy experience.' The number of people she governs in Alaska
is fewer than many of the single counties in my state! She has no
significant experience, and avoids questions concerning policy. Another
problem is more of a liability issue; if McCain, in his old age and with
his poor book of health, up and dies on us... we're stuck with Palin as
a president! I can't imagine how fast she'd assist in driving this country
further into the ground.

Obama also has no experience, and tends to avoid questions about policy
and about how he will handle whatever situation is in question. He simply
skirts around the question, yells the words "CHANGE" and "HOPE" at the crowd,
and the sheep cheer.

I must admit I haven't really paid much attention to third party candidates
this election.

Either way, both are bad choices. We can only hope we get the lesser of
the evils. Our economy, as well as many other economies around the world,
are falling at the moment. However, this isn't the first time this has
happened, and I highly doubt it will be the last. Just have to ride it out,
and pray the politicians will start making the right decisions (and retards
will stop trying to live beyond their means, piling up debt).

Have you ever seen Manaty with your own eyes? Your house is away from Evergray?
I saw on TV yesterday featuring Evergray in which they introduced
aligator and Manaty. They said that an aligator is not so ferocious then
we imagine.

Manaty is so friendly and two of them got closer to a boat in which
they film them. Some of them got in water with a snorkel and touched them.
Touching them with both hands is prohibited because Manaties
feel as if they were hold and they get scared. Some of them have scars
made by boats speeding.

In some areas they are suppoesed to run with idol speed noy to scare and
hurt manaties.

Yes, I've seen Manatees and Alligators. I live in Florida. There are
places where you cannot use a boat because of manatees, as they are
a protected species.

Alligators are usually only aggressive toward humans if they have been
fed by humans, because from then on they associate the scent of
humans with food. Otherwise, they usually do their best to avoid humans...
though they may aggressively protect their territory if they have

According to Voice Of America, Palin was speaking about Obama's
association with William Ayres, a college professor who founded a
radical group called the Weather Underground in the 1960s.
The group claimed responsibility for bombings on several government
buildings as a form of protest during the Vietnam War. Ayres never
refuted the claims, but was also never convicted, and later went on
to an academic career in Chicago that brought him into contact with
Barack Obama.

As for gaijin, gaijin doesn't have strong and offensive
meaning. It's just that abbreviation is an idle thing and can be
rude term for people and refrained from at news and newspaper
and as such.
We don't feel anything particular when gaijin is refered.
Rather gaikokujin sounds wierd cos it's so formal like NHK news.
Gaijin is not refering to particular ethinic group.
Gaijin is most likely to point at white or caucasian people, sometimes blacks.
It's just that gaijin look pretty different from average japanese.

Wouldn't you only want to play on Japanese servers? The latency for US/European servers would be really high.
Guess it depends on the game though.
The time difference is especially strange with how it has affected the global economy. Since Japan is at least 12 hours ahead of USA, your stock market closes for the day before the US market opens for that day.
This means Americans can use the closing points of the Nikkei exchange to estimate how our stock markets will do. Before this economic crisis the time difference didn't really matter, but you can be sure that the USA stock exchange will go down
significantly with panic sales as a result of the Nikkei dropping 10%.

If I use "Jap" at all, it's only when writing as shorthand, and I
use a period after it to specifically identify it as an abbreviation.

Ex:

"Studying the Jap. language" <- What I would use
"Studying the Jap's language" <- Clearly meant in an offensive manner
"Studying the Jap. student's language" <- Acceptable

Also, to whomever said that "Chink" and "Gook" and such are abbreviations,
you are completely wrong. An abbreviation is derived from the original word
with the purpose of making it shorter (and, thus, faster to write).

"Chin." for "Chinese"

It's not censored or changed in any way. The issue is, using "Jap" as a
derogatory noun and using it as an abbreviation of the adjective "Japanese"
is completely different. The only way I can understand it being found
offensive is if the person doesn't understand the difference between
its use as a noun and as an adjective.

Also, I don't understand what you mean by "don't you have your experience

South Korea officially threatened America at the G20 meeting held in
Washinton by saying S.Korea didn't care to sell America's Treasury Bonds.
As you know, the world is faced with the financial crisis and most countries
(including Japan, of course) tries their best to support America so as not to
let the world collapse.

I'm searching for the news article in English, but it seems that American media
haven't reported it until now.

* For those not in the know about why selling America's bonds means treachery,
to put it simply, if they are actually sold, values of dollar will depreciate,
meaning American people will suffer from economic downturn, which also means
the financial crisis will affect the rest of the world. In this respect,
what South Korea is doing is damaging not only America, but also the world.

"Britain's a terribly negative place. And it hammers people down and
it pulls you back and it prevents you. Also, with the issue of
immigration, it's very difficult because although I don't have
anything against people from other countries, the higher the influx
into England the more the British identity disappears."
"So the price is enormous. If you travel to Germany, it's still
absolutely Germany. If you travel to Sweden, it still has a Swedish
identity. But travel to England and you have no idea where you are."
The change in England is so rapid compared to the change in any other
country.
"If you walk through Knightsbridge on any bland day of the

The matter of how to speak to English-learners is a double-edged sword,
really.

On one hand, using simpler sentence construction and more commonly used
words allows the more basic and early-intermediate learners to come to
understand sentence structure better, as well as picking up a few words
here and there without having to take in too much information at once.
However, the more intermediate-advanced learners may not find it challenging
enough, and would probably like to read the more complex nuances available
in our language.

In theory communism is a good idea, the problem is it holds people to a very high standard and also requires the entire world to embrace the ideology.

If people are worried about their personal Skype information, I
could build a small-scale web-based voicechat application, capable
of supporting around 20 people simultaneously. Participants would
be able to stream at up to 512kbps, so there'd be very little loss
of quality...

When you say web-based, you don't need to install the application
in your PC?

What does it take to use the application and chat with all participants?
You get access to a certain URL that イギリス人 makes and people
who wants to participate in chatting go to the URL with mic incerted
in PC? That's all?

Will Nanako SOS guy join the chat?

That's exactly what I mean - it would run from your browser,
and you would be able to use it as long as you have Flash Player
installed, as well as a microphone.

As for your last question... well... I'm trying to think of
a way to control who can join, yet keep it completely anonymous.
All I can think of so far is to allow anyone to join, but allow
users to locally mute users they don't wish to hear.

That'd be pretty impressive Briton, but I thought of another idea (which would require less work on your end).
The person hosting the Skype call is the only one that needs the person's name.
If the host just posts his/her Skype name then anyone interested can just message them asking for an invite.
Of course, once in the call people can see each others names, but at least you don't have to add them to your contacts.

Lets see how many people are interested, specifically the Japanese posters here. Maybe someone could write a post in Japanese as well asking about interest?

Who here has enough upstream bandwidth to be able to host 20 users, though?

(Supposing we get that many at any point in time)

Ah, Flash Player is needed, too, but chances are most PC users have it
installed even when their PCs are on a store's shelf.
If イギリス人 doesn't feel bothered and he wants to practice making such
a software for him to improve Software making skill or anything, イギリス人's
idea sounds good but アメリカ人's idea is good.

I wonder how many Japanese here'll join. I think it is better to set
up a date which falls in to weekends or national holidays.

I have a shared license for Flash Media Server, hosted on a server
with a 10 megabit upstream connection - allowing for 512kbps for
each user if all users transmitted simultaneously - more than enough
for our requirements.

Of course, that's with the custom application solution. If it's Skype-
based, I hear that Japan tops the charts for highest speed broadband, at
a national average of 93Mbps.

It's a social news networking site for anything related to Japan.
I imagine it'd be pretty funny for 日本人 to see what us Westerners are interested in regarding Japan lol.

It was intended to be. I basically just simplified what I had said before.
My normal posts are how I usually write amongst people I do not know,
utilizing higher-level English skills. A lot of people here appear to
be on an appropriate level, so I didn't think to simplify things very
much in the hopes that conversing with one who knows English well would
help them with their studies. It seems like some here would rather the
simplified version, however, so I'm going to try to make an effort to
vary any complexities in my writing here as to try and net both crowds,
so to speak.

The social bookmark site is dubious in a way because photos of girls
there for matci-making or making penpals seems the ones picked up soewhere

Practice makes perfect. It's going to be difficult to write in a foreign language, but the more you keep at it, the better you will get.

By the way, you got it right: write something in English, not write something by English.
