Though 金玉 is a word in Japan that means testicles, 金玉 is a word in China that means "important thing as gold and treasure" .

I was not in the front side but I got nervous and prayed I would not be
chosen.
Americans seem to be more positive and social than Japanese.
And Americans are more groovy.
Japanese are generally shy and person who was picked up by Copperfield seemed to
be embarrased and made a shy smile.
Nobody raised hands and appealed to Copperfield.

In all of my classes, nobody ever pipes up to answer the teacher's questions,
even if they are obvious. This may be because some people are half asleep and not

questions by myself. Americans may be more outgoing, but like hell are we more

We don't have the Valentine Day/White Day custom here, so anyone can
give a Valentines Day gift to anybody.
Most elementary school students here celebrate Valentines Day with a class
party, and everyone brings in valentines for everyone in the whole class.
(Usually these are cheap little cards with cartoon characters, and many people
put a small piece of candy in it).
But when you get to be an adult, then it turns into this big romantic deal,
which kind of takes the fun out of it for many people.
Yesterday, I read a most amazing letter written by a man to "Dear Abby" (advice
columnist) about how was sick of Valentines Day being only for couples, and
that we should revive the custom of giving valentines to everyone, just like
children do.
I must say I was impressed. Here is the link, if you want to read it:

I didn't know kids give a small Valentine gifts to every classmate in US.
I don't agree with your idea 100%.
It might be a good idea to give Valentine gifts and show affection
to loved ones even you are grown up.
But in reality, you don't feel so much affection to all of your coworkers.
You like some, you don't like some. So it's odd to give every coworkers
a present. Kids should be educated for them to get along well with each and
every classmate so the custom of giving a small candy to every classmate is good from
educational standpoint, but that idea can't be applied to grown-ups.
In Japan, as you may know, many female workers give chocolates to
their coworkers and bosses even if they aren't loved ones for them.
That type of chocolate is called "Giri choco," meaning something like
obligation chocolate. Some companies decided to ban the custom because
it is a burden to female workers and giving giri choco is just by
courtesy without any affection. I think this is a good move.
I buy the idea of giving chocolate or whatever on Valentines Day to your loved ones
such as your bf/gf, relatives, familiy members, people whom you really
feel affection to, but giving to coworkers just for obligation is odd.
We have custom of sending New Year's greeting cards to coworkers,
sending summer and year-end gift to boss in workplace.
Some companies told their workers to stop these customs anymore because
these customes are burdens to workers.

I agree with your idea.
By distributing chocolates to everybody without discrimination, every one feels happy, and
doesn't have to suffer from unneccessary worries or despair.
I knew first that not only women but men can give presents on Valentine's Day.
If I gave chocolates to someone here, people would consider me to be pretty odd person.

That reminded me of one the dialogues in my Japanese textbook.
The clueless American (Johnson-san) gets very excited when a Japanese
co-worker gives him some chocolate on Valentine's Day until one of his
Japanese male coworkers tells him about giri-choco.
You're right; that would be a big pain to be obligated to give everyone chocolate.
I guess I would just give relatives & friends cards.

The text book sounds good introducing Japanese modern customs.
>Men are lucky in Japan, they only have to give stuff to the women they
get something from.
Today, girls tell a boy they're secretly in love with that she loves him face to face
or by writing a letter or something on any day but long time ago,
when that's not so common, Valentine's day was a once in a year opportunity
for her to muster up courage to show her love to a boy they love
by giving a chocolate. Even today, I think Valentine day serves as
a day for a shy girl to muster up her courage to ask a boy to go out
with her. Giving a serious chocolate with a letter to him can start
romance with him.
There are very popular high school students who get more than two
chocolates which aren't giri-choco but serious ones.
If he's not interested in any girls who give him chocolate, and decides
he'll go out with none of them, he doesn't gives anything in return
on "White Day" to any of them. If he decides to go out with one of them,

I was given only one serious chocolate by a girl when I was a high
school student. She was one of my classmates but I hadn't talked much with her.
She wasn't a cute girl (actually, she was kind of ugly. lol) but I gave her
something (I forgot what it was) to her on White Day because I thought ignoring her
would made her feel bad.
I told my friends about me giving her something in return. They all
said, "why did you do that? You didn't have to." I think I was a polite
boy. I couldn't run over her feeling to me.
She gave me a hand made chocolate with a letter. The letter said she wants to go out
with me. I handed her a letter with something. I wrote I've never imagined
going out with anybody. (That was true becasue I was shy in those days.) So, I can't go out with
you but thank you very much for your gift. I wrote 弓道 がんばって。
It was a few months later that I found out she belonged to 剣道部,
not 弓道部。This explains how much I didn't know about her. Uniforms
of 弓道 and 剣道 looks similar.
251:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/02/16 13:55:59
What she gave me was 8 pieces of chocolate in a box and on top of each piece,
one alphabet was written with edible addtives or something.
The eight alphabets were v, y, I, o, e, l, o, u. I didn't understand what
that meant first, but didn't take much time to understand what they meant.
I'm not boasting. Mind you, she was an ugly girl. But I have to admit that
even a present from an ugly girl like her made me feel proud of myself. hehe
>>248
Never heard of the comic. I guess American women aren't shy so they
don't need a pseudo-holiday like that. (Stereo type) But the concept
of pseudo-holiday is funny.

If you are a school boy, you may be on pins and needles on the day
in the hopes that a girl to your liking would give you chocolate
even if she hasn't communicate with you so much.
Moreover, maybe you wish that a shy and submissive girl who was secretly in love with you
would abruptly appear in front of you from nowhere.
But I warn you that, Japanese girls are, in general, extremely clever, as far as the dating game.
She would at least try to ask you various questions beforehand,
if she wishes to give you her serious chocolate.
Actually, your Valentine's Day has already ended before it really starts.
It's predetermined harmony base on your past behavior.
But you can't notice this fact when you are a kid.

Thank goodness. I thought I was the only one who was not able to catch it.
This led to popping up another question in mind.
I wonder if English speakers never fail to catch any dialect English, I mean like American people
and new zealanders have deffinetely no trouble understanding each other just because of accents (apart from specific words).
Just to make my point clear, concerning the japanese language, I don't think I can alway catch what dialect Japanese speakers say,
especially elderly people with strong accents. And I wonder something like this also applies to English speakers.

He is so angry and adamant about ufos existing and the government conspiring even though it is ridiculous.

"Airplane!"
In Japan, it was called "航空機！".
It had Japanese subtitles, but even I can tell that a lot of the dialogue wasn't translated exactly.
I can't blame the translators, though. A lot of the jokes were untranslatable.
English puns.
That sort of thing.
Still, when I watch fansubbed Japanese television, the jokes I like the most are those kinds of jokes--
The ones that don't translate into English, and the translator has to stick a note at the top explaining it.

And several people of such sort happened to post in 2ch.
Compared to Japanese Massmedia, they only believe in objective data analysis and lead to conclusion.
That's why they are far trustworthy. Among them, two guys have some finance books published, and one of them started

so I went up to New York City for the past few days to look at New York University
and Columbia University. I was hoping I'd be able to post here using my cousin's
internet but his ISP is blocked as well.
Funny story: According to URLﾘﾝｸ(www.washingtonpost.com) moot, the creator of 4chan.org, is applying to both NYU and Columbia
for next year, so maybe I'll run into him if we end up at the same school lol.
So how's everything here? I see the dismal economy spawned some discussion.
Not good news for college scholarships =(

I just talked to my american friend and she said they dont say "proper"which means 適切な in america
and british are more likely to say it.
I didnt know that. I had felt right with proper for 適切な.
but she said they say "right" instead of "proper" in america.
like "Do a right thing." not "Do a proper thing."
What else can i say besides "right" in american english?
328:名無しさん＠英語勉強中
09/02/19 21:41:15
So it felt proper to say 'proper'?
"Correct" is OK sometimes, but a lot of Americans use "right" more often. "Proper" is uncommon, but it is still used.

I saw somewhere in a book that, "appropriate" isn't a good word
for meaning something "proper". There wan't an explanation about
why it's not appropriate. I thought the reason why it's not
appropriate is because it's a bigger word than proper.
Could anyone give me a good explanation why it's not proper?

Actually I had read that web side before you read.
I had the same impressions as you had.
Eventhough he is not japanese as you pointed out but japanese American,
he is still non-white asiastic race.
>it is also a kind of a white supremacist group.
yes. In wikipedia it is explained that hell's angels membership is limited
to white people only. (oh, now the description of the requirement being white
is dropped from wikidepia. But it must be a tacit agreement in their circle)
I wonder why and how Mr.Fuki succeeded in entering Hell's Angels.
We can see typical american white chicks in Fuki's site.
I guess that in general white thugs are prone to be offended by a asian surrounded by
white chicks.
There is a biker-gang group which has international chapters which
include non-white nation.
The name is banditto? Correctly Bandidos. I saw a group of non-white
bikers on their web site.
Motorcycle clubs, especially like Hell's Angels seem to be
gang or mafia in reality, bike lovers on the surface.
In japan biker gang(暴走族) is regarded as one gate to yakuza
or inferior to yakuza. I guess most people will proceed to professions
other than yakuza though.
I wonder whether biker gangs in America can be attacked by professional gangs or
both usually keep off each other.

If you don't like her, why not?
Without biased ideas, she is a good looking girl with gorgeous body.
That's why some people like her. Some Japanese are atrracted by her
becasue she speaks Japanese.
What Japanese people get about her facts and figures are from what's written
and spoken in Japanese by her. Some Japanese people may know her what's called
e-begging, some not.
Nick writes about her in his blog and quite a lot of people gather there,
comment about her. I don't know what Emily's personality is like, which
from what I read in his blog doesn't seem to be commendable.
I would say some people in Nick's blog is jealous of her being able to live in Japan.
Quite a lot of people commented abuot her figure saying she has love handle or what not,
but those comments are rediculous. She has gorgeous body, actually.
Her body is on the high end of bikini models. I would say her figure is
almost perfect.
Do I like her? Not really but I don't understand why Nick's blog gather
such readers.

I'm filled with anxiety.
Now the economic downturn caused by global financial crisis is becoming worse rapidly.
Unemployment of the United States is skyrocketing, and what's more,
it will certainly influence Japanese labor market.
It is not difficult to predict that a good many people are likely to lose their job.

Either is acceptable usage.
The "no" is used as a direct negation of the previous statement, and what follows is what the speaker wishes to declare.
Putting "yes" is a way to doubly affirm the declaration, while the negation is contextually implied (as that usage can also be used to show agreement).

Long story short, she made a video clip that claims she would go to a university but doesn't have enough money,
and she requested donations from her viewers for that purpose. Technically, there's nothing wrong or illegal about it,
but she's never mentioned school or exams since then and shut down the comment function for the video.
Instead, she keeps reporting about the band she formed in Japan and her days of band practice. Again, I don't
really care what she does, but I could imagine her fans who pitched some change towards her tuition wonder where
the money went.
I'm fully aware this is a very stale way of enjoying gossip, so don't dis me on this one. I'm just replying.

09/02/21 00:51:11
I remembered the fact that I'm going to university by the help of a scholarship,
and I found there would be no neccessity of offering donations to go to university.
Just beause she is a bit cute, it doesn't mean telling a lie can be justified.
In retrospect, I've never heard someone demanded money just to go to university...
She made use of her beauty to exploit fan's property! What a sly girl!
This is a great lesson.

09/02/21 01:54:38
Asking for donation for the benefit of personal goal is more common in US but we Japanese aren't
familiar with it. If a person who's asking for donation is suffering
from a serious desease and has no money to be hospitalized or to go
through surgery or anything, then Japanese people feel sorry about her
and some people might donate some money.
But in case of Emily, I just thought why do I have to give some money
for her tuition. Lots of Japanese people apply for scholarship or
work hard part-time after getting into university to pay university
tuition.
One organization supports students who lost their parent(s) because of traffic
accidents and can't afford to go to uni. I don't mind donating some money for them.
Emily on the other hand, doesn't seem like being thrifty. She goes to
Starbucks often, buys whatevery she wants rainging from video games,
CDs to nice clothes. All she has to do now is settle for coffee sold
in vending machine instead of expenisive Starbucks, sell CDs and video
games. She has to earn some money on her own if she's serious about going to university.
Asking for donation without making any effort? Give me a break.

According to the Korean newspaper, many Korean girls are flying to America after Bush agreed on Korean entering America with no visa
and in order to enter the country without fail, they ask (Korean) doctors to issue a certificate of being phisically challenged and sitting in a wheelchair
to make sure American people will be nice to them. They say that American people let them claim baggage without pain (no waiting)
and so they take advantage of American conscience. After they pull through, they stand up and start walking out of the airport.
The newspaper says that the problem is, such girls go to America because they are going to
work as prostitute in LA.

I have a lot of experience in live fighting. I'm not saying I'd win for sure,
but I think I have a much better chance than someone with little to no experience. Being a
lot stronger than me doesn't matter if you have never actually thrown a punch at someone
before (or taken one, for that matter). Win or lose, I would still have tried to take the
criminal down on principle.

Boasting about having lots of live fighting experiences is based on DQN mentality and what's not
praised for.
Having lots of live fighting experiences means either you aren't good enough
to solve problems without relying on phisical fights or you are a kind
of person who tend to put yourself in danger situations where you have to
rely on physical fights.
In a nutshell, this kind of person have a low crisis management skill.

By the way, I think trolling native speakers on the internet are one of efficient ways to learn language.
Some responds to my stupid posts in "bad" language and some try to educate me by using polite words.
It's better if you sock puppet to support your stupid posts in polite, educated language.
Retards keep yelling at me, and patronizing fags remain polite so you can learn two different registers of your target language.
On top of that, those trolled speak sincerely and voluminously, which is difficult in real life.

What do you mean by DQN mentality?
I don't think you know what it is like to live in a place where crime actually
exists. For example, say a man starts running towards you with a knife and plans
on mugging you? Are you going to talk him out of it when he is already sprinting?
That happened to me a few years ago.
This may not be the case in Japan, but in a lot of places in America, there is a
chance you may be assaulted at any moment. In fact, as I was saying earlier, a woman
was assaulted just down the street this morning.

Hi, アメリカ人. I'm glad your test post was accepted.
But this doesn't mean your next post will also succeed, is it?

Haha I can post using my neighbor's wifi connection and my iPod touch!
Typing is pretty easy so this is ten times easier then getting a damn proxy
to work.
Regarding violence in America I can only talk about my personal
experiences. Around my school some kids have been mugged
but they're leaving late after sports practices. My school once had
a problem where someone kept pretending to be a student and stole
a lot of stuff. The worst was when during class the principle announced
there was an escaped convict in the area.
I think USC is my top choice then NYU, Columbia and Cornell University.
I got 2 letters yesterday, one saying I got accepted to RIT(decent school)
and a letter from WPI(I was excepted a few weeks ago) saying I got
60grand in merit scholarship over 4 years. That's a really good offer
but WPI is far and away my last choice...

I've already known that you're a smart boy before I read 407.
It can be said that ou are deserved to being offered merit scholarship, because
there are not so many people who can write and express their own opinion as well as you,
considering you're still in your teens.
I'm pround of there being such a competent English speaker like you here!

No offense to Tennessean but yeah you're right he sounds stupid (and I'm American). It's pretty easy to see what he's trying to say about himself.

( ・ω・) That's cool! I applied to Cornell as well. However, I don't think I will end up going there. I always hear bad things about how competitive it is. I wonder if that's true.

You can buy her DVD to support her. Don't know if that would help her save up for school,
but pretty sure it's gonna be one of the rarest DVDs since it'll probably be discontinued soon.

Slut.
...ah, I just realized this strange thing.
When I hear the word "slut" in English, it's a very very strong word and sounds extremely rude.
I'd never say it in real life unless she's cheating on me or something.
But I don't think the Japanese equivalents such as だらしない女 and あばずれ are as offensive.
Certainly I wouldn't say those words either in a normal situation, but they could be used as a joke if she's your friend.
The same goes for some other offensive words.
Calling someone a "racist" sounds extremely offensive, but 人種差別主義者 sounds less offensive to me for some reason.
Come to think of it, I just found there are more striking examples.
Who cares if a person is 無神論者 or 不可知論者?
I suspect some Japanese adults don't know what those words mean,
but it seems words "atheist" and "agnostic" could be sometimes provocative, which is surprising if said in Japanese.
You call me a sexist? I take it as an offense.
You call me a 男女差..., um, I don't even know what the Japanese equivalent of "sexist"!
Is 男女差別主義者 a word?? I don't know.
Actually I looked in my dictionary and found 性差別主義者 is the proper term.
I don't think I heard this word more than twice in real life.
Could you let me know your opinion? I appreciate comments from both Japanese and people of different cultures.

When I hear the word ‘人種差別主義者’, I have the impression that he is an extreme racist, who believes his race is
superior to any other race.
He wouldn't distort his idea no mater what happened to him or no matter how logical persuasion he would receive.
It seems that I cherish a negative image on the word, unlike you.
As to the words 無神論者 and 不可知論者, I sometimes hear the former one though I never say or hear it in daily conversation.
When I read books a bit related to philosophy, I came across the latter one. Its meaning is so complicated and sophisticated that I couldn't grasp it though.
性差別主義者・・ I'm not familiar with the word either.
This word sounds like a little strange, probably because I seldom hear this.
Well, these are all my arbitrary opinion, so please don't take them seriously.

I really can't tell if any right word in japanese, for this english word "slut" (I mean, in the daily conversation level).
だらしない女 or あばずれ might be that, but still they aren't really used in usual talk, at least I don't use them.
Probably, some other words like... ehm.. don't ask me what the exact expressions they are.. anyway, you say slut could be used
for friends, not in the insulting way but japanese version expressions might not be used the same way.
For you, "racist" sounds strong and 人種差別主義者 doesn't much, I see.. interesting to me. Since both do sound
very strong to me, just the sound of 人種差別主義者 "jinshu sabetsu shugisha" is too long and not being used
as a name..like, "Hey, you racist. ..." but "おい、人種差別主義者！" sounds a bit too much and odd. I have seen it was said
like "レイシスト", again some people might use the kanji version but i have never seen it.

I think, many many people in Japan are not very much religious (I am one of them). As you know, people go to the shrine on
the new years day. And they go to the temple in summer (Bon season in August), and they say Merry Christmas
in december... And still, these are now like the events in year, still the bon season praying could be a bit serious
though.
So, these words atheist and agnostic, or 無神論者 and 不可知論者 don't give me any feeling as the words.
Maybe, could sound strong and provocative for some religious people.
Literally, yes 男女差別主義者 is a right word but I understand you have heard it not too often in real life.
As the impression for me, only some "feminists" sometimes yell this word out loud on some media but actually,
it doesn't appear to me the exact 男女差別 but simply the differences between men and women. (You know, often
these two definitions get mixed)
Well, the language wise, again "男女差別主義者 danjo sabetsu shugisha" sounds too long and not really used
in the daily talk.
I might be wrong, but this is my opinion. I hope it makes sense for you.
