I am very disappointed to hear that. Since I am currently using a 10" machine, I have extra 10" wheels and I would like to use them in the future. Have you already discontinued the line of 10" machines, or should I just wait for a while to purchase a new one?
"I'm fine, but it's kind of hard to get used to living here."
"I haven't been able to get in touch with him since yesterday, but do you know what's wrong with him? Can you tell him that I'm still upset? Looks like he didn't read my e-mail again."
>>60 I've been doing all right. But I haven't got to used to living here. I haven't heard from him since yesterday. Do you have any idea what's been going on? Looks like He ignored my e-mail again. Tell him I am really mad at him.
The video of the movie "Elizabethtown" was seen last night. The hero drives long and is . by chance with good music. If it is you, even how much other party who sits on the next : to might being though it is Watashif Omogi.
Even marrying at 30 years old or the ages of 31 : me though it is likely to laugh. Therefore, it is thought that it can meet the other party slowly. A good thing is not believed.
>>77 I watched a movie titled Elizabeth Town. The leading character happened to driving with nice music. I guess quite a few girls want to enjoy driving date with you.
>>79 You may laugh but a fortune teller told me once that I'll get married around 30 or 31, so it's about time for me to meet Mr. right. Matbe that's you. I'm optimistic enough to believe a fortune teller.
>>122 > スティーブは何をするために8月に大阪に訪れるのですか? > 観光?それともホームステイですか? Why is Steve going to go to Osaka in August? Is he going there for sightseeing, or is he staying with a host family?
My name is ○○ and I am ○○. I am emailing you because I have a question/request etc regarding ○○. I have sent you several messages through the university website, but I only received the same automatic response with a FAQ, which wasn't very helpful for me. : Thank you in advance for your help at this busy time of year. I look forward to hearing from you very soon.
Sorry I called you late at night today. I had to talk to you because I was really worried about her. I was so worried that I even sent you the same message twice. Actually, I didn't quite get what you were telling me in English on the phone, but I didn't ask you questions because you sounded so sleepy. It was good enough for me to know that she was not dead. I promise I will work on my English so that I can communicate better with you in the future.
I'm sorry calling at night late a little while ago. It worries about her thing, and it has put it by all means. And, the same message has been transmitted twice. To tell the truth, it did not ask back because it seemed to be too sleepy though your English was not able to be caught by telephone at all. However, I thought it was already good because it was able to confirm the thing that she did not die. It makes an effort straight to talk more.
>>156 In most cases I never feel diffculty to make myself understood in English. It's not that I'm saying I am perfect because it is my second language all the way, but you can't expect even your mother tongue to be perfect as well. So who knows?
I don't really have problems communicating in English. I am not saying my English is "perfect," though. In fact, I do make minor mistakes here and there because I am not a native speaker. However, I also make mistakes in Japanese, so I really don't know how good my English actually is.
>>159 Somewhere out there that comet shines on, in a place nobody can see.
人気のある歌なら歌詞のローマ字でググれば英訳は大抵見つかるよ
>>160 Well, I'm not him obviously, but your English is really good. There's some words you use strangely and your sentence construction is off in some places, but your meaning is very clear, which is more than a lot of people can manage...
>>161 How many of your followers would be willing to die for you? Not a single one, but I'd lay down my life for them in a second.
>>165 Some native English speakers have told me before that my English is "really good" or "very good." I don't understand what exactly "really good" and "very good" mean and the difference between the two. Maybe those two are better than "pretty good" but worse than "excellent."
On the scale of 1-100, 100 being a native English speaker's level, how good my english actually is? You can only judge from this post and 160, though.
>>168 Thanks. That's C+ or B-? Worse than I expected.
>>169 I heard shells-imbedded guitars are out of stock. Did they stop manufacturing that type of guitars or are you going to have ones in stock again? If you don't have any plans to sell that kind of guitars, then, I'll buy a guitar made of plastic.
>>169 It looks like the shell-inlaid guitars are out of stock. Have they been discontinued, or will you be getting more? If they won't be restocked, I'd like to buy the plastic one instead.
>>183 Thank you for sharing your story about you and Japan in the last e-mail. I understand how much you were grieved when you were faced with the loss of your son because of cancer five years ago. You are so fluent in Japanese that I thought you were born and raised in Japan and went back to Korea. I'm very happy to know that you love Japan.
>>192 I'm sorry to inform you that the Word file you attached was broken, and I was unable to see the content. Would you please fax your order form to xxx-xxx-xxxx? (A friend of mine let me use his/her fax machine.) Sorry to put you to the trouble, but I hope you will take good care of this.
>>194 You just wanted to learn past mistakes Japan made. You laughed with glee and mocked us once you learned them. What is the meaning of this? I don't get it. I guess It's time to put an end to this nonsense.
>>195 I enjoyed Karaoke with my friends last Saturday. I haven't seen them for four years.
>>196 Work earlier and leave earlier. Is that what you like?
>>194 You're only interested in finding out about Japan's mistakes and laughing smugly to yourself. I don't understand what it is exactly that you get out of ridiculing others, but I see no point in continuing this discussion.
>>195 On Saturday I met up with some friends I hadn't seen in four years, and we went out to karaoke.
>>196 It's much better to go to work early and get out early.
>>236 I love Japanese food the most/best after all.
>>237 Thank you so much, as always. You're a very broad-minded person. You have both technique and aesthetic sense, and I have a lot of respect for you. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your wonderful work.
>>266 You're welcome. Do you have any Jazz number you urge me to listen to? Let me know if you have any. I've been collecting jazz vinyl and CDs. I'm a collector. I have more vinyl than CDs right now.

Would you be able to ship them internationally to Japan? It would be great if you could give me a detailed instruction on how to order these products.
>>324 Dear Ms. Dean, I'm contacting you regarding the documents I requested about a month ago. It has now been over a month and I have not yet received them. Should I wait a little longer? If you need our address, I would be happy to resend it to you. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to expedite the process.
I am coming to an end with my third year of college.I have been really busy with my studies and trying to maintain a good gpa in order to keep my scholarship at school.My school is extremely expensive so it helps my parents out with the price.Since i came back from being abroad they started offering a new major at my school.So i switched my major from business administration with an emphasis in management,to specifically marketing.aspirations are to eventually go into advertising.The switch set me back a little with the credits so in order to graduate at the end of next year i need to really cram a lot of classes in this summer. I am taking three courses along with some specialty classes dealing with web design, graphic design, and web animation.It's really beneficial to be skilled with technology especially since it is going to continue to takeover the world.It will also look impressive on a resume.Well enough of the serious talk,let me tell ya about the other, more entertaining, areas of my life.

We are now in Hong Kong to try to complete the technical side of the CLO project. It will be important to have your reaction to know if we should continue to study the project.
We thank you to come back to us as soon as you can.
I want to carry this project successfuly with you. I have a lot to talk with you, I am glad if you spare your time to have a meeting including an interpreter.

>>375 Hello, Maple. Thank you very much for coming to see our club activity at the art room the other day. I'm sorry if I made you feel bothered because I couldn't make myself understood well in English. My name is Yoshizawa and I'm a senior. I'm not good at English but I'm happy to get to know you. I asked someone to translate this letter into English, by the way. Thank you for reading.
PS. You draw a picture very well. I'd like you to join the art club if you like.
>>379 I saw your site the other day, and I really want this product. Do you accept orders from Japan? That's where I live. I can pay with Paypal.
>>380 It had been a while, so I was really glad to hear from you. And your email was so long! I can tell how excited you are.
I like traveling to lots of different places, too. You can really feel the history in Europe, and America's kind of optimistic, bighearted. You get a completely different experience in every region, and that's what makes traveling so wonderful.
>>430 He's just one year old but he loves succor and kicks a ball very well. I want him to be a player like you. I want him to be a man like you.のどっちかかかな。
Kyoto is a gorgeous place to visit. I really want you to come here and see with your own eyes.
>>430 1) He's only a year old, but he loves soccer and he's very good at it. I hope he grows up to be like you. 2) Kyoto's really a beautiful city. I hope you have the opportunity to visit someday and see for yourself.
>>435 I thought I was thrown away. I thought I wouldn't be able to go OO anymore so I couldn't sleep well every day. Thank you for tell me that. 捨てられての意味がいまいちわからんが。ふられて、っていう意味かな。
I'm so hectic with my work that I feel like I'm almost dead. It's good to know you enjoyed OO. I hope you don't hate my hometown OO.
>>436 My work goes really quickly when I'm listening to music (on my headphones). The power of music is pretty amazing. Oh, and my favorite song is Star Wars Medley.
>>444 I've been to two countries, America and Canada. If I count in my own country, Japan, three countries. What about you? How many countries have you been to, including your own country?
>>461 I can't understand that you bothered us trying to find faults with the Japanese when we talked about the Japanese character. How would you feel if somebody tried to say the same kind of thing to you, when you are talking about the character of your own country's people? I'm afraid to say that the person like you are not welcomed in Japan. We never try to tell such a person what we really think, because we'll find it ovbious to be made full of even if we speak from our hearts.
>>461 How come you nitpick at the Japanese when I am talking about what they are? I just don't get it. Put your feet into my shoes. How do you like it? I have to tell this to you. You have no place in Japan. We don't open our heart to someone like you since you just show no respect to us.
Thanks for coming to our club meeting the other day. Sorry we had a difficult time communicating with each other. I'm Yoshizawa and I'm in the 9th grade. I am not very good at English, but it was really nice to meet you anyway. By the way, I wrote this letter in Japanese and asked somebody to translate it for me.
P.S. I think you are really good at drawing. I hope you can join our club. It will be fun!
>>472 > このCDはイギリスから取り寄せました。 > とても早く届いたのでうれしかったです。 > とても気に入って何回も聴いています。 > 1日も早く日本でライヴをしてくれることを願ってます。 I ordered this CD from England. I was so happy because I received it very quickly. This CD is my favorite now and I listen to it all the time. I hope you can come to Japan and give a live concert here very soon!
Well, thanks for you introduce to website.I bookmark it. and probably good pictures have put on wall in my office. because I think portfolios for hint of design are never lock up in clip file holder. all time see them and all time comparing than selfish create.
>>523 I'll tell you one thing, religion isn't just a hobby for Japanese people. If you insist on thinking it is, you can try telling that to my cousin, who goes and cries at our grandmother's grave every single day. I hope you realize what a cruel thing it is you're saying.

I feel that it's rather women who have a higher status in Japan. For example, there are "Lady's Day" discounts only for women at movie theaters and restaurants, as well as many places where men can't go such as women-only nail salons. In trains, there are cars exclusively for women, but none that are just for men.
>>543 My mother told me to go to bed before 11 last night, but I was up until 2 in the morning watching a Video. Consequently I was told by my English teacher this morning that I looked really sleepy.
>>545 It seems females enjoy a higher social status in Japan. For example, restaurants and movie theaters give special rates only to female customers and audiences on the day known as ladies' day. Also there are a lot of places off limits to males such as nail salons. Train companies operate women-only cars. But there is no such a thing as a men-only car.
>>548 I've been singing along to the CD. I just wonder whether this helps my studying. ;-)
>>553 There are rental services for kimonos in Japan. Even if you don't have a kimono, you can rent one when you need it so that you can use it for special occasions such a coming of age celebration.
>>556 Are you a writer? That's really something. I wish I could be like you because I am not cut out for writing a story. I hope something wonderful comes out from your writing.
外人の方と日本のレストランに入ったのですが そこには2つメニューが置いてありました。 彼は一つのメニューのある品を指さして、「これと同じ物はこっちのメニューのどこに書いてあるの?」 と聞いてきました。 私は「こっちにはないよ」と言いたかったのですが 何て言えば良かったのでしょうか? There is not one here. で良かったのでしょうか?
>>559 I believe this training/research will allow me to really grow and develop my skills. After I complete this course, I want to work in an area that will make good use of the experience I gained over the year.
>>536 >I've been developing a longing ... from my childhood onward. This sounds as if the person's been *developing* the longing for years, which is a little strange. Just "I've been longing ..." is better, I think.
>>583 花見に行かなかったことかな?サクラは見たけど? couldn't go to Hanami, a party under chery trees, which is a traditional Japanese culture みたいな感じ。 2番目の奴は意味不明なので翻訳する気にならない
>>596 What's the best way to have a good command of English?
>>597 How humiliating! I am so crushed that I cannot even fake tears. You are the worst human being I've ever met in my life. I just pity myself because I still love you.
>>611 I understand that you still have bad feeling on the Japanese. From the beginning, I kept explaining about the point of this work, and it still remains unchanged. But it took a lot of time to have you understand it, and I think it's because you assumed that everybody thinks in the same way. People have their own ideas. At least, I have a different way of thinking from yours. After all, the ways of thinking differ with countries.
>>599 Zenkoji Temple announced to the Nagano city on April 18th that they withdrew as the starting point for Beijing Olympic 2008 torch relay, which is scheduled on April 26th.
>>609 I believe the name of your band is a perfect match with your music.
>>610 Please stay friends with me, though we are in separate classes from now on. If I were as smart as you are, we could be in the same class. If you have any question about Japan, don't hesitate to ask.
>>617 Would you tell me a shipping fee to Japan by insured mail/EMS? Would you tell me a shipping fee to Japan if I select an insured carrier?
>>626 If you are nervous about your shopping and require perfect one, your attitude to this business is differnt from mine. I'm afraid you should refrain from trading.
>>628 Fuel cells are devices that directly transform the chemical energy resulting from the oxidization of fuel into electrical energy.
>>626 If you're the type of person who is nervous about shopping and requires perfection, then your attitude towards this transaction is different from mine. I'm sorry but I must ask you to refrain from doing business here.
>>622 I'm trying to grow my hair out right now. Please style it the best way you think is possible. You can choose the hairstyle.
>>621 1) I love animals and children. 2) I like you because you're such a wonderful person. My friend has met you in the past, and s/he was saying how kind and polite you are.
>>617 Please let me know how much it would cost to ship insured to Japan.
>>633 1) Plate tectonics can explain why the Earth is different from other celestial bodies, like the Moon, Mars, or Mercury. 2) The oldest rock on Earth is approximately 4 billion years old, but most rocks date from less than 2.5 billion years ago. 3) The faster glaciers flow the more water pours into the ocean, which may contribute to rising sea levels.
>>590 I included a little extra money in my payment, so would you mind inspecting the goods before you ship them? Apparently there have been many complaints about turntables not turning properly. I appreciate your help. Also, can you give me an estimate on when it will ship?
>>591 With the coming of April Tokyo has become green with budding plants and people have begun to dress in lighter clothing. It really feels like spring has come. But we have an expression in Japanese, "Sunshine in spring never lasts three days," and this season is proving it quite true! Just when you think the weather's been nice and clear for two days, the third day ends up rainy or cloudy. There's one more thing that feels like spring to me, and that's the cherry blossoms. Seeing them all in full bloom makes me truly glad I was born Japanese. I went cherry blossom viewing in Ueno Park with some of my friends on the first Saturday of April.
>>514 I received a refund of the cost of the merchandise, but the postage fees were not included. The shipping cost for the first time I sent it back is shown in the image. The cost for the second time was the same amount. When I have confirmed a refund for the two shipping charges, I will place a new order.
>>671 Do you mind if I ______ to that picture you sent me the other day? Your picture really turns me on.
_____ = jack off / wank / fap / masturbate
jack off : slang, vulgar/coarse wank : same as above fap : net slang, if the girl doesn't spend a lot of time online she might not know what it means masturbate : standard term. kind of boring
Don't use "jack off" or "wank" unless you know she can take a joke and won't be offended.
>>699 Don't worry about it. Just live right now to the fullest. None of that, "Oh, it can wait 'til tomorrow." Whatever I can do right now, I'm going to give it my best.
>>701 Oh, I have ○○! They're a great group. I really like them, too.
Cultural differences includes differences in languages, life styles and personality traits. These differences are so large that they are immediately noticeable, if not plain shocking, when we interact with others with different cultural backgrounds. I personally think that it would be a huge waste if I confine myself in a comfortable environment and spend the rest of my life without familiarizing myself with foreign cultures because there are so many things I can learn from them and I should take full advantage of such learning opportunities. Moreover, in order to build meaningful relationships with people with different cultural backgrounds, it is crucial to understand the influences of cultural differences on interpersonal communication. This is precisely why intercultural communication is very important.
>>696 Ah, >>704 beat me to it. Well, just for reference, here's another version of the first para.
People of different cultures will, of course, speak different languages, and have different lifestyles and personalities. These differences are so pronounced that it seems there are always causes for surprise whenever we interact with foreigners. I think it would be a shame to spend my entire life ignorant of other cultures when there are so many things I could, and should, learn from them. Further, interacting with people of different cultural backgrounds requires the ability to effectively communicate with them, which is why intercultural/cross-cultural communication is so important.
In my opinion, good intercultural/cross-cultural communication is the kind that allows individuals of different backgrounds to learn about and understand each other's lifestyles, personalities, and customs. This could mean, for example, simply having a conversation and sharing different perspectives; spending a day together and getting a feel for each other's lifestyles and habits; or having a debate about some issue and appreciating differences in personality. I call this communication good because I don't believe we can (get along)/(have friendly relations) with people of foreign cultures unless each party understands the other's way of life, and these forms of intercultural/cross-cultural communication facilitate this exchange of information.
In some prefectures, using earphones or other devices while at the wheel is not considered to be a traffic violation. ...but it also has something to do with listening to music with earbuds...
>>702 1. Japan is aiming to decrease the annual growth rate of its energy consumption from 3% to 1%. 2. Even if we had had (or "we had been able to use") that new device/equipment/apparatus, this experiment would probably still have failed. 3. No matter what changes/modifications are made to this product, there is a chance of reducing manufacturing/production costs. 4. That education system is based on the premise that, if children are taught to investigate thoroughly, they can become capable of finding whatever they need themselves.
>>716 That was quite a surprise today! I was really glad (I ran into you out of the blue)/(I got a chance to see you). (It's too bad)/(I'm sorry) you lost the game... I'll come cheer for you again, so stop by and chat with me!
>>717 I heard that you were considered to have sufficient linguistic ability if you could accurately describe your symptoms to a doctor should you become ill in a foreign country.
>>723 As I wrote in the e-mail I sent last time, I completed order procedure again on the web site on 10th April. Please let me know when the items I ordered will be shipped.
>>735 I'm really glad that I was able to talk with you on Saturday. I do appreciate a phone call you gave me when you arrived at Narita. I would like to be faithful to you. I will definitely visit Paris again. Please keep me in your thoughts until then. From Tokyo with love.

>>751 There seems to be a problem to put on the clothes sold in Japan especially for someone exceptionally tall like you. You probably have a hard time finding your size of clothes because they are designed to fit Japanese.

Hi, it's been a long time. Sorry that I haven't contacted you for so long. I didn't notice your mail until now. I'm sorry if you sent me mail and I never reply. Actually, my mail address has been changed too. Please tell me your new residence, I'll drop you a line. Hope to hear from you again.

>>773 Looks like you downloaded the file. This was ripped from a vinyl record so you may hear some noises. Take it easy.
>>794 That's not a preblem because I have been doing overtime work often so far. I'm also used to work along with time in other country, so I don't see it's a big deal.
>>757 This is a very sentive problem ・・and this is a real story that happened in the past. The person who cruelly murderd all family can be got back on the right track? After he took some of lives who wished to live, is the sin of him cancelled just with his being rehabilitated? I don't think so. It's not that everyone can be born again, I suppose.

1・Goodwill's parent company, Goodwill Group Inc., said the same day that it has been told that the Tokyo Labor Bureau wants it to explain what it was doing before handing down the punishment. The company has been told to submit an explanation by Jan. 8. 2・The group said it has been told that, under the ministry's plan, 89 of Goodwill's roughly 800 nationwide branches will be ordered to suspend operations for four months and that its remaining worker dispatch business will be suspended two months. 3・In a statement, Goodwill Group said it "deeply apologizes for causing trouble and concern among the related parties and shareholders."

>>789 Every day is just the same thing over and over, a boring ordinary life. It kind of makes me pessimistic, but I haven't given up hope.
>>793 If you're still around, "this store does not opened" is incorrect. It's either "this store doesn't open" (much more common) or "this store isn't opened."
>>868 Whether or not 40 years old is young or old depends on the person, so I don't think you can generalize. There are probably people who look young for their age, and people who look old.

Scholey explained the improved performance in a range of memory tests could be the result of a higher heart rate coupled with an increase in the flow and the amount of insulin going to the brain.
1. There's something I want to talk to you about, do you have a minute? (Want to go see a movie on Saturday night?) 2. I'd like to but I've already got plans that night. (Then I'll ask you again some time.) 3. Please do. Thanks for inviting me. See you later.
>>884 1. What's your favorite kind of Japanese food? 2. Which do you like more, baseball or soccer? 3. What should I do to improve my English?
>>885 I understand that you treat unfair people unfairly. So when did I ever take an unfair attitude towards you? I've always logically explained the facts. I've tried to follow your advice as much as possible. Now and then there were times when I felt you were being unreasonable, but I believed that eventually you would understand where I was coming from, so I kept trying. You're simply judging that based solely on your emotions, not logic. If either of us is being unfair it's you, because you're not answering logic with logic. Please try to avoid bringing emotion into it as much as possible, because that will only introduce personal feelings (self-interest). Everyone has their own definition of right and wrong, so please try to grasp things not in terms of right and wrong but in terms of differences. I would appreciate you being as objective and logical as possible.
