04:15:53 phreadom 02:24:09 It means "Happy New Year!" :)
06:53:44 john2 I figured that out on my own thanks,
08:41:07 phreadom 06:53:44 I wasn't talking to you. :) (mouse over the timestamp to see who I was responding to.)
08:23:46 M Utley Go rudeness and an intelligent rebuttle!
09:19:04 john2 If I contributed to that I am actually quite proud, I can't bare people who enjoy their mannors served on what persumably must be a mercury coated golden platter.
08:32:23 M Utley ummm k I have a question... When asking would you like something to eat would Nani tabetai desu ka? Be incorrect... the lesson i just used says Nanika tabetai desu ka?
12:15:58 ebear215 明けましたおめでとう!
15:36:04 gabi in japan M Utley - Nani (o) tabetai desu ka? would mean What do you want to eat? But Nanika Tabetai desu ka? means Do you want something to eat? The difference in meaning is slight, but it's there!
18:12:03 M Utley ah i see thank you~^^~
