Chat in English (英語で雑談) Part 85

>How do I think?

I think with my eyes closed.

What do you think?

he is a gentleman enough so he woudln't force me or
anything. so that is not a problem here. I just feel
sad because I can't talk as same as before after
I actually met him in person. Maybe I think too much?
we used to have fun time talking on net before I don't know
much about each other.

I think " The Force " in Star Wars is based on the Eastern idea of "Ki"
which is a symbol that usually means an atmosphere.
Also "Ki"is referred as a power you sense
when you concentrate to have spiritual awereness.
The power is often used as somewhat psychokinetik
power in many of Japanese comic like "The Force" in Star Wars movies.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone! I've been having fun today. n_n

No, I wouldn't wear my Yukata, I think that would be too strange. People here aren't used to seeing a yukata. xD
Plus, even though they are nice and thin, it was still super hot today, so I'd probably want to die of heat if I wore it.

Regarding sibling names:
My Grandma is 4 years older than her brother, so when he was born, she called him "baby brother" instead of "little brother"
And to this day, she still calls him her baby-brother, even though they are both in their 60's! xD
I think that it's extra endearing to call a younger sibling your "baby" sibling, but it also might be embarassing for the younger sibling. lol

Igirisu-jin, that is a fantastic hat collection! Very snazzy! I was thinking about starting to wear hats more often, but they don't look that great on me.
Do you think that the type of hat you can wear depends on your facial build?

At least, when looked at from the above, westerners head-shape is oval, whereas
asians head-shape is round, therefore, the oval-shaped hats made to suit westerners
heads don't fit our (asians) heads, and it's true, lol

I guess people with smaller head look nicer with hats. And
probably the taller people look better.

>>928
Keira, is Yukata very hot? when it is very hot, I wear one
T-shirt only.

that's cute that your grandma loves her bro all the time and
treats him as a baby.

I see many ppl wear caps or hats to cover up
their hair. but I think if you like the hat, you'd be looked good
reagardless your size of head or facial build...^^;

>>931
>when it is very hot, I wear one T-shirt only.

*@.@*
No underware or skirt or pants or anything? Just T-shirt?
Sexyyyyyyyy!!!

>>932
yes, exactly without all the underware...
but you don't know me yet...I might look like an elephant lol

>>933
Could you specify which part of you might look like an elephant, lol~~

>>934
LOL
cute eyes, lovely thick skin and a heavy body lol~~
but a white T-shirt looks good on this brown skin lol~~

j/k

In Japanese, the sound that an elephant makes is usually written as
パォ〜ン(pawoon), but how about in English? (e.g. ワンワン vs bowwow for dogs).

I know only oink oink by pigs.
how about birds chirp?

Japanese bush warbler goes "ホーホケキョ" (ho-hokekyo) on a plum tree,
and little cuckoo goes "テッペンカケタカ" (teppen kaketaka).

>>938
teppen kaketaka sounds funny! ><

I know, but the birds really say that.

>>940
can't believe it...really? have you ever heard they say that?
teppen~~ lol

The Japanese name for the bird who goes Teppen Kaketaka, is Hototogisu.

>>941
Oh, yes, many times, and this spring as well.
You don't need to go into the full-scale woods,
suburban areas with some nature/trees will saffice.

>>941
What's really cute about them is that in the very beginning of spring of the year,
they are not used to saying the whole phrase properly, so they stop half-way and
the sound is rather weak because they are not confident,
but as the time goes by, with their practicing, they eventually become
able to say the entire phrase with confiednce!
Kind of touching!

>>943
nice! usually they sing in the early monining
it's nice to hear birds songs...yeah
hopefully many birds start to sing a song around my place (T_T)

>>945
Ditto!

>>944
so you must be a real birds watcher!
you must join the "kohaku utagassen" (Red vs White
music festival) in year end! lol

>>947
Will I get the binoculars and counter for free?

>>948
sure I guess NHK would provide you for free. ^^;

That would be fun to do.

Not only a bush warbler, but also 西川のりお cry out ホーホケケキョ.

He also cries out "Tsuku tsuku ho-shi", "Tsuku tsuku ho-shi"!!

lol conchs ホラガイare interesting too!
spiral shell...
unlike other gastropods which crawl, couchs move by jumping
and are carnivorous. I just read the article here ^^;

LOL
I never know from where those comedians
inspiration comes from. lol
recently I like "sausage is freedom! hot dog is freedom" by Inii something..><

>>953
In Japan, conch-shells are associated with warrior/mountain priests
from old time.
They used to blow on a conch-shell horns to announce e.g. start of a war.

yep yep. I'm aware of it. I like the living conch, yet the conch-shell is cool too.

>>956
I've never seen the living ones.
Can they easily be found on the beach, for example?

>>954
yeah, and don't forget, everyone must eat sausage when it's cloudy!

>>958
how come when it's cloudy?

>>957
dunno...hope to see them jumping lol

which one is worth watching tonight?
Yonekura Ryoko & Takaoka Saki vs Ito Misaki & Fukada Kyoko ^^;

>>959
The sausage thing maybe another urban legend, but I've heard that
a coulple of times, and everytime I hear it, I start to feel like
eating one, lol

>>960
Definately, the latter, cause I don't like Yonekura or Takaoka.

>>962
suppose the drama with Takaoka could be dorodoro shiteiru...
but she's got big boobs! lol

Saausage is freedom! hot dog is freedom! if you scream this way
you feel like so liberal! lol (I dunno if liberal is the right word) lol

I think you meant liberated. ;F Liberal would be used to say something like "And he applied a liberal amount of bukkake to her face and toenails."

why toenails?

why toenails...that is the question lol

>>928
Thanks! As for your question though, I do agree with you; I think it all
depends on finding the type of hat to go with the facial build, though hairstyle
probably fits into it too. A lot of people also don't really take into account hat
sizes, so if they buy a hat which is too big or too small, then it'll look strange
anyway. It's just really a case of trial and error.

>>929
Hmm... I've seen quite a lot of Asian people who do suit hats though. As with everyone
however, it depends on which type of hat they choose. I find that, say, Nakai Masahiro
from SMAP (I don't particularly like SMAP, but do watch Utaban usually) suits all sorts
of hats.

>>936
The elephant question is a really hard one... usually people make a strange trumpeting
sound with their mouth, which can't really be translated into letters. Kind of this this
(a random clip found on Youtube)!

Also, dogs here are said to either go "bowwow", as you said, or "woof".

>>937
As you say, birds go "chirp, chirp", apparently.

my little birdie charps in the morning woods, "fap fap fap"

>>969
is that how birds sing?

Liberty without learning is always in peril;
Learning without liberty is always in vain - somebody

Liberty within learning is always friendly
Learning within liberty is always pounding heart - me

Therefore I've always had both liberty and learning
just that I've forgotten to enjoy the both LOL

Didn't know that Fukada Kyoko had such gigantic boobs.
Are they real?
Oppai rulz.

rulz lolz
