hiragana - used mainly for verbs and adjectives

Doesn’t look that complicated. It’s not binary you know.

Humans are afraid of what they do not understand, of what they cannot control. Our only outlet is anger so we may hide our fear in hope of dominating what we do not knowLast edited 30 Jan 2008 07:15 am by NeonMan5 | |

konnichi wa, NeonMan5!!!
watashi wa Prince Zuko desu. Hajimemashite!!!
genki desu ka?
I get it, “wa” is telling you that Prince Zuko is the main subject. And “desu” explains that you are talking in the present tense, whereas Deshita (pronounced DESH ta) is the past tense.
And instead of past tense, the Japanese call it the “non-present”.
And putting “ka” at the end of the sentence turns it into a question.

Regular Rep: 5Joined: 14 Dec 2007 Posts: 578 OFFLINE | Oh, so the differnet sets indicate differnet uses. Cool.
Oh, I just finneshed my first lesson of Ninja School, and I was the only one there. I learnt Ichi, Ni, San, Shi, Go, Rokku (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). I learnt rolls and basic punches aswell. It’s pretty awsome.
They even have a sword shop. If you live in Australia (Preferably WA) look up 'Kevin Hawthorne' Ninja Schools.
Celebrate Ninja day on the 5th of December!
