    What is The meaning in japanese Bringing and We?

    • @cosmonautyy
      @cosmonautyy 7 років тому +1

      This one is hard to get down because Japanese doesn't have rule specific cogitation like English I, We, Us, They for words like in Spanish Yo, Tu, Nosotros, Ellos. Dash -tachi is a signifies grouping but if you include yourself in the group then say simply it in relation to yourself.
      For example you are with two friends and are answering the question "What do you do on Sunday?"
      You can reply "Steven-tachi ga iru shigoto" or "Watashi-tachi ga iru shigoto" which literally means I-(in this group) go to work."
      Japanese is changing and now boys as well as girls use terms like boku so with younger people or in a casual setting you can say "Boukura ga iru shigoto." -ra is also a group signifier.
      Bring depends on where your bringing something to. If you are saying "Please bring me food." it's just "Mottekite wa tabemono kudasai."
      Hope that helps.

      ''Japanese themselves.' That statement right there tells me you obviously are not Japanese. Until an actual Japanese person comments on this saying that they do not like it, YOUR opinion of OTHER PEOPLE using romaji doesn't mean jack shit, and not everyone is as genius as you so clearly must be to install a Japanese keyboard onto their computer. How can anyone not know the meanings of all of those symbols and buttons everywhere?
      I know how to install languages jackass, but it still took me a few months to realize I even could.
      Another thing, if you're so in bed with Japanese people, why did you use the slur 'Jap?' You can't 'defend' someone and then insult them like that.
