Good thing too, thanks.
I think this topic should be stickied. I’ll ask Bjarne.

Translation?

Also could you translate the following:
How Are You?
I’m Fine
What’s Your Name?

Also, could you translate the follwoing commands:
Sit
Stay
Come Here
Move
Stop/Halt
Get Over Here!

Oh and for each of them could you fill in where you would use a name?
Thanks.

I can count to 19, but if I learn 20 then I can count to 99. Once I learn 100 and 101 I can count to 999. It’s simple.

If you’re stuck read the first post.

No, I’m sure it isn’t that.

Got it:
20 = ni ju
21 = ni juichi
22 = ni juni
23 = ni jusan

So thirty would be:
30 = san ju
31 = san juichi

and so on:

40 = shi ju
50 = go ju
60 = rokku ju
70 = sichi ju
80 = hachi ju
90 = kyu ju
100 = not sure...maybe ichi ichi ju?

Great, to topic is offiially stickied! Thanks Bjarne.

I’m fine, which I don’t really know what that is in Japanese. I’ve just come back from holiday, so I couldn’t really post without a computer.

Anata Wa?
