'Blacklisting' is by far a more used term than 'whitelisting'.
It was more of a wishful feature, I guess, than a practical one. The
administration functions would have to be modified, and there would
have to be people looking through whitelisting requests, which would
take a lot of time.

My family went out for Japanese food last night. Apparently the restaurant was
the first Japanese restaurant in Chicago, founded in 1967. The city actually recognized this
and gave the owner an honorary street name just recently.

Reality shows are those shows like Big Brother, where they stick a load
of people in a house and get viewers to watch and vote who they want to
kick out. Or a similar show where they ship people to a jungle and make
them do tasks like eat live insects.
As long as I remember, this kind of show was started first in
Netherland. This stuff has not yet gotten popular in Japan.
We had a few TV programs which is to the world. a Tiger of Money?マネーの
虎 was my fovorite. The concept of "a tiger of money" was sold to
all over the world.

To native English speakers
As you might know, we have custom to go to Shinto Shrine on New Years
holiday to pray for good lucks for a new year. Some poeple do omikuji
there. There are some types of omikuji. I think the most common one
is you pick up a foulded piece of paper from a box. After you pick up
one, you unfold the paper. Your new year's fortune is written on it.
It's like a fortune teller. It tells you lucks in rainging from business,
money, family matter and relationship, etc.
Your fortune is broadly divided into 大吉、中吉、小吉、吉、末吉、凶、大凶.
大吉、中吉、小吉、吉、末吉 are all good, 大吉 being the best luck, 末吉
being a little bit of luck. 凶and大凶 means you have to be careful
since you have no lucks the year. 大凶 being the worst, 凶 being a bad luck.
Now you seem to can try omikuji in 2ch, too. Just type !omikuji!dama
in your name section and 2ch tell's your luck for the year of 2009.

>>167 is most probably just a joke made by a native Japanese speaker, maybe a college student.
The contents of the email are grandiloquently expressed with the excessive use of inflated language
and in reality makes it rather hard to convey the original message written in a straightforward way.
In fact, however, it is well written and hyperbole is sometimes what you have to resort to especially
when you need to stretch a 2 page mediocre paper to a 5 page seemingly important one for school.
In short, someone busy wouldn't want to read that long ass email, but I kinda like it.

I tried translating this. It certainly explains the situation in more detail
than I could ever attempt. And there were a lot of useful vocabulary words
in there! I particularly like the sentence "何卒よろしくお願いします。"
It suits me, somehow.
But one question: how do you translate "よう", when it appears mid-sentence without
"に" or "な"? It looks like a conjunction, but I can't find anything about it in
my dictionaries.
For example, I wasn't sure how to translate the following sentence:
" 予めご了承下さいますよう、お願い申し上げます。"
"Please acknowledge this beforehand (referring to the inability to use Japanese), (very polite) please."
Is that close to the intended meaning?
218:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/01/02 11:47:48
>>217
(I'm not >>167.)
I can share your feeling when you see '～よう' and judge it as conjunction.
I think you are right.
>" 予めご了承下さいますよう、お願い申し上げます。"
>"Please acknowledge this beforehand (referring to the inability to use Japanese), (very polite) please."
Your translation is very good.
That's almost same as what is expressed in the original sentense.
'予めご了承下さいますよう、お願い申し上げます。' can be said
'予めご了承下さいますことを、お願い申し上げます。 '.

Please give me your suggestions.
220:ベイエリア人 ◆wI.9LiivDc

Is "Dog" not a good name for a dog, then?
How about "Ddog"?
The extra "d" is for "distinguished".

(I'm not >>167, either.)
A literal translation may be "I politely ask you to acknowledge this beforehand",
'よう' corresponding to 'to'.
You can add 'に' after 'よう', the meaning, I think, being the same,
but ように sounds redundant here, at least to my ear.
(I have no idea how other Japanese natives feel.)
But you can't add 'な' after 'よう' here, for 'ような' functions in an adjectival way,
as in '今日我々が知っている"ような"言語' 〔language as we know it today〕, denoting
'manner' because ような is 連体形 of ようだ. (What is 連体形 in English?)
The literal translation I presented above may probably sound a little harsh,
so it would be advisable to say,
"I would be most grateful if you could make allowance for this as you read".

Thank you for explaining that to me!
I enjoy trying to translate from Japanese into English, although
I am very slow at it, and I make a lot of mistakes.
Right now, I am reading (very slowly!) a story called "Silence" by Haruki
Murakami. One of my Japanese teachers was a big fan of his work, and
she gave it to me to read. I've been working on it little by little for
a while now. Recently I bought a book called "The Elephant Vanishes", which
is a collection of Murakami's stories translated into English (including "Silence").
It is interesting to compare the story in Japanese to the official English
translation. The translator changed some things, and even added material
to make it sound more natural in English.

I don't want to offend you, but I think above explanation is a bit redundant since it isn't
related to the meanig of the original one.

I hope you are feeling better.
Is it a male or female puppy?
I suggest a short name, so it's easier for the dog to learn its
name for commands. You could call it "Dawg".
(Or maybe not; Urban Dictionary lists some negative associations
for that word.)

But she said in >>217,
"one question: how do you translate "よう", when it appears mid-sentence without "に" or "な"."
So I judged that it would be more appropriate to mention 'ような'.

連体形 in English is defined as a "participle adjective".
I'm not familiar with the term, but when I checked it, it seems to
be a verb form (either present or past participle) that is used as
an adjective.
broken dishes, falling trees, interesting people etc.

You wouldn't use the preposition "in" after suit, so
"The usage doesn't suit this context." is better.
The other two sentences are fine grammatically.

I don't think New Year's holidays themselves have religious meaning.
But going to Shinto shrine have religious meaning, I guess, if Shinto

And almost no Japanese don't know much about religion.
After all, Japan is a country where they celebrate Christmas without
knowing much about the background of it and we don't recognize

Is HHH widely known in America? No? Only prowrestling geeks know of him?

"Heard of but doesn't know of him in detail and have little in terest in him". ?
Is WWE considered for the people of low IQ? Does chats about WWE
offend people, depending on the situation and who I talks to?

About the etymology and structure of "よう of 予めご了承下さいますよう、お願い申し上げます", I studied.
よう seems to the sound of 様, which means so, way , manner, fashion, status and as such.
As for the structure, 予めご了承下さいますよう seem to function as adverb clause
or adverb phrase.
Would "the direct translation" be like "please, stay so(on the condition) that you
acknowlege this beforehand"?
I know it's awkard and couldn't convey the original meaning well.
Few Japanese think what the structure of the sentence is.
Some might think "よう" sounds auxillary verb, よう which
indicates will and determination. We say "英語を勉強してみよう" I will study english.
Maybe these images are complicated in our minds. But there must be the right
answer. I guess the first theory is right linguistically.

よう in 予・・・よう indicates a modality, because what is expressed in 予め・・・よう
is not realized at the time when the speaker (or the writer) makes the utterance
and it is uncertain whether or not it will be realized in the future.
The English equivalent of よう in this particular case, therefore, should be a 'To-Infinitive'
or a 'that (clause) + modal verb', or as >>217 suggested in her translation, an 'imperative
mood'.
As for the structure of the sentence concerned, 予め・・・よう cannot be taken as an adverbial
element, because it is in the object slot of お願い・・・上げます, as >>218 implied in his/her

Really ? I didn't know that he was infamous person on the internet.
For me, however, he doesn't seem to be such a bad guy.
He has educated and preached on this thread by many anonimous and native-speakers, so his bad manner
has a bit improved, I think. So I think it's time to forgive him for the time being.

As for Sparky, as someone said he behaves well these days bacause
foreigners here told him to behave and controle himself before
acting like a spammer and troll.
He's something to talk about when there's nothing to talk about.
I mean, some people depend on him in a way as a topic of this thread.
We don't have to mention him when we have nothing to talk about in my
opinion.

Yes, I have heard some pretty... bad things about the English classes on your side of the pond...
If I'm not wrong, North Americans and Brtish people refer to "pond" as Pascific
ocean but in this case, you seem to mean Pacific ocean. Doesn't that
sound odd? It's North America and UK that are located in either sides
of the pond, meaning Atlantic ocean.

You know those generic Japanese ghosts you often see in horror movies?
I'm talking about the ones with the long hair over their faces.
I bet they'd look nice if they wore ponytails instead.
There's no point in looking nice. Ghosts have to look scary.
Hair covering their face is crucial because that stir up the audience's
imagination about how these ghosts look like. Chances are their faces
are distorted with agony or pain or have scars in their faces.
I read another thread but I take it is a fake thread so I post here
instead.
338:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/01/05 17:27:41
I'd put the case that "on your side of the pond" is one of the phrase.
then I googled it to define what it is.
As a result, google said it as "on the other side of the pond"
Besides, URLﾘﾝｸ(eow.alc.co.jp)
said it's one of the proverb.
339:名無しさん＠英語勉強中

I also had thought that another thread is a fake one, but this idea is out of date now.

I post on both threads without thinking much now.

Let me correct first.
XIf I'm not wrong, North Americans and Brtish people refer to "pond" as Pascific
ocean but in this case, you seem to mean Pacific ocean.
OIf I'm not wrong, North Americans and Brtish people refer to "pond" as Atlantic
ocean but in this case, you seem to mean Pacific ocean.
対岸の火事 is irrelevant here.
As far as I know, "pond" sometimes means Atlantic ocean.
So when British people say, "on the other side of the pond," or "on your
side of the pond," that means, "in North America" and when American (or Canadian)
says "on the other side of the pond," or " on your side of the pond,"
that means "in UK."
But in >>336, カナダ人 seems to mean Japan by "on your side of the pond."
I just thought when Canadian says "on your side of the pond" that has
to mean "in UK." So I just asked the question to make sure.

I'll give you more detaled explanation.
As you know, 2ch has lots of boards and there's one board called
ニュース速報VIP board, which can be translated as "News bulletin VIP"
board.
The title is News bulletin but in reality, there in News bulletin VIP board,
they don't discuss news at all. People there make threads randomly.
They sometimes do stupid things like people in 4chan's /b/ board such as
writing bombardment of comments in a particular blog so that it can't
function.
The call thmselves VIPPER, meaning very important person but some 2channelers
think they are just a crowd of stupid people.

Which mechanisms-convection, conduction, and/or radiation-best describe the following energy transfers?
1)a warm breeze blowing inland
2)a damp cloth cooling your forehead
3)a spoon warming in a coffee cup
4)a microwave heating a bowl of soup

Physics, oh my. Not my strong suit.
conduction--transfer of heat via direct contact of particles of matter
convection--transfer of heat via movement of a heated fluid
radiation--transfer of heat energy through an empty space
So, I would guess:
1) convection
2) conduction
3) conduction (but I'm not 100% sure)
4) radiation

if the question is written in English I found it really hard to

Somehow I understand what the word conduction means in Japanese and
I can guess the other two, the other ways of transfering heat.
After that it was pretty easy to answer the question. I think 米人
answered right.

We sure learn the three ways of heat transfer in elementary school.
I don't mean we learn complicated calculation of how much calories are
tranfered and all at elementary school, though. We just learn there are three ways of heat transfer
and each of the names, 伝導(conduction)対流（convection）and 放射（radiation)
and examples of wash of them.

364:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/01/06 17:23:10
>>363
I never thought about the differences between Cathoric and Protestant
or other fractions of Christanity in my daily life. All I know is Cathoric
people call a gathering at church "mass," while protestant people don't.
Other stuff I know is, Cathoric people are the origine of Christianity and
Protestant came later and was prosecuted and moved to New continent now called
America on Mayflower.
So what features of the characters in Japanese media makes you think
they are Cathoric? Maybe outfit?

To >>999 of the last thread,
I too think it's interesting. Apparently that's where even native speakers may get tripped up!
But my understanding is that a language is defined by actual usage, not by linguists.
So I think we don't need care too much about the "proper" grammar. What we speak is the actual, living language.
367:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/01/06 21:52:29
>>998(in another thread)
OK, I understand that the usage of 'country' is essential point, with regard to the my question.
Thanks a lot!
Then, do you think the following sentense is correct in terms of the usage of 'the'?
Generally speaking, people living in 'the' urban area long for the way of life in the country ?
368:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/01/06 22:17:58
>>367
I'd say "in urban areas" if the sentence means 都会人ってのは田舎の暮らしに憧れるもんさ。
But the urban area, the urban areas, an urban area are all grammatically correct.
Probably the meaning follows the general rule I described.
The point is the noun "area" also has various meanings and their usages can vary,
so articles (and whether it's singular or plural) depend on what you mean by "area."
Where's a native speaker!?

"Mass" is actually the name of a specific rite, not just any gathering.
Differences between Roman Catholics and other sorts of Christians?
Le me see what I can come up with off the top of my head...
I may get some facts wrong, but I'll do my best to be accurate.
Roman Catholics consider the Pope in Vatican City their leader.
They believe that a person must be baptized to enter heaven.
"Confessions" (the admitting of sins, taking place in a small booth) is primarily associated with Roman Catholics.
It is mostly pre-Reformation forms of Christianity that have nuns.
Roman Catholics are more likely to cross themselves.

We don't know anything about Christianity, and Catholic just sounds cool and hawt. Thats why. I think.
About the only thing I and most of Japanese people know about Christniy is Jesus. He got burned
on a cross and revived himself in a blazing rage. Moses used magic to split a river and killed the Egyptian
Army. Then after the river got back to normal, Jesus turned the water into wine and walked on it.
Then he had a dinner with his men and Brutus betrayed him and poisoned the food and Jesus died again.

It's just that we Japanese lump all Christians altogether.
We don't even know differences between fractions of Christians
although some people know vague differences between Cathoric and
Protestant. The gesture of making a cross in front of your chest is
our stereotype of Christians that's why you thought all characters
in anime are Cathoric.

No, none of them did anything that could cause a ban, I suppose.
They say those 3, comcast.net, dyn.optonline.net, res.rr.com let their users make proxy servers
on their domain so easily that even a Japanese spammer could take advantage of them.
They just want to block as many proxies as possible.

(1)Someone/Something -ga somewhere-ni iru/aru.
(2)Someone/Something -ga something-o suru.
(3)Someone/Something -wa somehow-de aru.
These are basic 3 formulas of Japanese language.
Do you know why the post position is wa with (3), while with (1),(2), they are ga?

Normally we have two 45 minute multiple choice tests in class before our official final.
One is more heavily reading comprehension based while the other is straight grammar/vocabulary.
Then we usually act out a dialogue with a partner during the final period. However, for some
reason my teacher decided to only do the multiple choice tests this time.

450:片岡数吉 ◆WBVlJkFAFk
09/01/07 13:16:18

Those 3 formulas consist the subject and the predicate, each representing existence, function and state.
(1)Someone/Something -ga somewhere-ni ari-masu.
(2)Someone/Something -ga somehow-shi masu.
(3)Someone/Something -wa somehow-de ari-masu.
These are how you add axiliaries to the subject and the predicate.
Do you know the formulas?
451:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/01/07 13:23:18

452:片岡数吉 ◆WBVlJkFAFk
09/01/07 13:26:13
(1)Someone/Something -ga somewhere-ni aru-de-aro-u.
(2)Someone/Something -wa somehow-shuru ni chigai-nai-de-aro-u.
(3)Someone/Something -wa somehow-de aru-ka-mo-shire-nu.
These are how some axiliaries are added?
Are these fascinating?
453:片岡数吉 ◆WBVlJkFAFk
09/01/07 13:42:12
Someone/Something -ga somewhere-ni aru-no-de, someone/something -wa somehow-shuru koto-ga-dekiru.
Someone/Something -wa somehow-de aru-kere-do-mo, someone/something -wa somehow-shuru.
Thus, adding auxilliaries can directly lead to another clause, making the earlier clause the subbordinate clause.
Isn't this Japanese grammar wnderful?
It is also wonderous because it have been given me by Christ the Lord.

Hmmm. Well it's all interlinked right? I'd say writing/speaking on the fly
is the hardest for me (which is a problem since it's on my AP test in May...). I'm pretty good at memorizing vocabulary and grammar usage
so reading comprehension isn't too bad. I think this is pretty normal for a any foreign
language learner though.
455:片岡数吉 ◆WBVlJkFAFk
09/01/07 14:05:55
>>454
This has been all created by Kazuyoshi Kataoka who is I.
You say writing/speaking is the hardest for you.
My formulas can be applied in all the listening, the speaking, the reading and the writing.
1.existence
2.function
3.state
4.auxiliaries
5.subbordinate clause

What an atrocious translation!
Mr. Kataoka seems to be unable to grasp the meaning
and grammatical function of 'with' in this context.
There is no point of enclosing syntactical units with brackets
if it does not help you understand the meaning of a sentence.
