Kenny: Watashi no namae wa Kenī desu, *anata wa? * I am alittle confused, I am trying to figure out how Anata wa? is posed as a question without the Ka?. Kenny: Kochira koso yoroshiku onegai shimasu. Is the the context of the statement that is able to define it as a question? The two bold lines are what I am refereing too. I have only been at this for about a day and a Half so far and this is throwing me for a bit of a loop. From what I gather so far the ending with "ka" denotes a question. So how does the ending with "wa" specify it as a question? Thank you! And "wa" is to signify the topic, and one that both speakers would be familiar with or previously was previously mentioned, as opposed to using "ga" with would be for a subject and one that is within a larger topic or not previously mentioned. You have Anata ni wa saino ga aru talents Anatanara dekiru can do it Youare Anata wa totemo kirei desu beautiful ASHEICABMLES lhave Watashi wa anata o. :D What an excellent question and a very important one as well. You are correct that the particle KA at the end of a sentence asks a question. So, the phrase *Anata wa * is either incorrect, or missing some words and of course the *KA* if it is a question. The answer is that in this context, it is incomplete. Kenny: Watashi no namae wa Kenī desu, *anata wa?* I'd like to introduce to you the Japanese way of speaking which is - dropping all understood words between the speaker and the listener. *_Iku?_* - which literally translates to _*"Go?"*_ but may ask the questions "Are you going?" You will often hear Japanese people speak with sentences that consists of just an action word, such as: So, the complete version would be something like: In the example above, *Anata wa?* - _*"Yours is?"*_ has dropped the words _*"what"*_ and *_"name"*_ - that's *namae* and *nan desu ka?* Just as you do in English - _*yours is?*_ without any intonation at the end is simply stating a fact - like "yours is the big one" however, when it is said with a rising intonation _*yours IS?*_ - then it is clearly asking a question. I hope this helped to clarify the confusion.“Suteki" is a word that often appears in Japanese conversations. If a Japanese tells you something like the above, you should be pleased. In writing “suteki" in kanji, it is “素敵", and the word “敵" means “enemy". “Suteki" means “attractive", “good-looking", “handsome", “wonderful", “great", “nice", “splendid", “glorious" and so on. Then, the meanings of the above examples are as follows. study) kenchikugaku are: you are very kind anata wa totemo shinsetsu desu. I like you very much as you are so wonderful. put after the adjective: kanojo wa kireh desu (she is pretty) kanojo wa.

This word can be used in both casual and business situations. Konya no kanojo pafo-mansu wa totemo suteki da. Kare no sakuhin wa dore mo subarashii desu. The origin of “suteki" seems to have various theories.Īccording to the dominant theory, it began to be used as a buzzword in the late Edo period. The term was used by the common people and had the meaning of “very", “recklessly", “extremely" and “extraordinary". Nowadays, “suteki" is used in the sense of “attractive" or “marvelous", but originally it was not always used in a good meaning. Watashi wa Matsujitsu Seito Iesu Kiristo kyoukai no senkyoshi de arukoto ni kansha shitte. Originally it was described as “すてき（suteki）" in Hiragana, but in the Meiji era, the word “素的（suteki）" started to be used, and the meaning gradually changed to the one used today.Īs mentioned above, the “敵（teki）” of “素敵（suteki）” used at present means “enemy”. Then, in the Showa era, the kanji began to spread among ordinary people.ĭoesn’t it sound very friendly if it contains kanji meaning “enemy", does it? It is said that these kanji began to be used in the Taisho era. Gomenneīut if you have anything specific to ask I can help you here! I'm 15.There are various theories as to why “enemy" is included in this word. My favourite Japanese singers are Gackt, Miyavi, Klaha and Ayumi Hamasaki.
I like Japanese bands like Malice Mizer, Moi Dix Mois, Schwarz Stein, L'arc En Ciel, Pierrot, Dir En Grey and Psycho Le Cemu.
I'm interested in Visual Kei and the Gothic Lolita style. I'm not a gold member, so I can't contact any Japanese people. I know simple phrases like 'watashi wa daisuki desu' and 'anata wa totemo kawaii desu yo' but I really want to be a manga artist when I'm older. I'm a fourteen year old from Scotland and I was wondering if anyone would help me learn Japanese.
