(no subject)

How is it that being cut from the friends list of someone you really like actually hurts? I mean, come on, it's just a journal, right? *cries*

In other news, I failed my Japanese quiz hard today. I just can't seem to wrap my brain around some of the concepts. I still don't really know what the difference between 'ga' and 'wa' is. And placement... oh, lord. I'm surprised I haven't failed yet.

Well, I stil have two months in which to fail horribly, so here's looking forward to that. ;_;

I need to buy myself a kanji dictionary. And settle down to some serious memorization.

I would also feel hurt if that happened to me. *huggles*

And... I can help you with Japanese. These are the simplest explanations I can think of:

'wa' is primarily used to denote that the word/noun before it is the subject or doer of the action. Ex: Watashi wa kawaii desu. (of course i'm not cute but what they hey ^_^). Watashi/I is the subject right? And I know you know that.

'ga' is used to denote that that the word/noun before it is the object of the verb or the receiver of the action. Ex: Watashi wa anata ga suki desu. 'Anata' is the receiver of the word 'suki'. Meaning "I love you" so 'you' is the direct object. Another ex: Watashi wa nihongo ga wakarimasu. I (wa) understand Japanese (ga). See the difference between 'wa' and 'ga'?

I hope that made sense or else I would be really embarrassed. ^_^

Cheer up!

About the placements/prepositions, just give me a list of the particular words you need help with. That is, if you still need it. ^_^ Sorry about the kanji though. Cuz I really suck at that. Hehe

Oh, yes, that does make sense! ♥

As for the particles, I guess I just don't understand how they change the sentence. And that sounds really dumb. Gah. Like, I know what they're *supposed* to do. I know that 'wa' is a subject signifier and that 'no' is a possessive and 'ni' signifies.. direction? (I don't have my notes with me so I'm guessing on that one. ^^;; ) I'm just, sadly, not very good at creating sentences in Japanese. ;_;

*LOVE*

I suck at kana in general. But I'm getting better!

That happened to me. Someone I thought I was pretty close to in that online kind of way cut me without even a word. It stung. I hate losing friends. ♥

'ni' is more of a location than a direction.

Watashi no neko wa kono heya ni imasu. 'ni' is indicating that my cat is in the room.

Watshi wa daigaku (h)e ikimasu. 'he' or 'e' denotes direction. I'm going to the university.

In short, NI is for location (the object/subject isn't moving) and HE is for direction (movement towards another location)

^_^

lol at my typos. so sorry.

also, my cat is in this room, not the room. my sentences suck ass. ^^;

You're absolutely fantastic, you know that? *hug*

It really, really does. ♥

*preens* hahaha! *glompses*
