Confession from the heart.

SUGGESTED USAGE:

恥(は)ずかしいんだけど、寝言(ねごと)では僕(ぼく)は猫語(ねこご)がぺらぺらなんだって。

hazukashiin dakedo, negoto dewa boku wa nekogo ga perapera nandatte.
Ashamed to say it, but while I sleep I am fluent in catnese.

恥ずかしいん hazukashiin - ashamed; shy [the ん at the end gives it a more casual feel. It is a shortened form of のです; used often after -i adjectives. takain desu (it is expensive).]
だけど dakedo - however (conjunction)
では dewa - as for...
僕 boku - I, me [casual male form]
猫語 neko go - cat language of course, this isn't really a word, but you can make language names by adding 語
ぺらぺら pera pera - fluent [One reason Japanese is so much fun is it has so many of these fun onomatopoeia words]
なんだって nandatte - (emphatic explanation)
