Hi, My name is Minoru Yoshida. I am a Japanese guy, working at Tokyo. I don't have opportunity to talk in English so much in Japan. I would like to have chance to communicate to native speaker here. I like to watch TV drama in The US, say, LOST, GREY'S ANATOMY, The O.C., HEROES, and Desperate wives, and AGULY BETTY. I like playing soccer. More than anything, learning, Speaking English is the best thing I like. I can teach you Japanese, Japanese culture, History, whatever. Then, I really appreciate to you telling me English, your culture and whatever. If you are interested in me, please let me know. I work in the daytime, but, if we could arrange the schedule, we could grub a lunch or coffee. We could have dinner as well, if you want. Email : [email protected] Skype : bis-yoshida Thanks, Minoru Yoshida

    Valentine's day and White day February 14th is Valentine’s Day in Japan. Japanese women give men chocolates to show your love. (NOT from men to women like other countries). Some give chocolates with their real love but others give them as a business, or as an obligation. We call it “GIRI Choco” in Japanese. The White day takes place on March 14th in Japan. It is a special day to give gifts back to women in return of Valentine’s Day. But the Japanese have some negative image partially. Because they are supposed to give it back on that day with obligation for “GIRI Choco”. Godiva Japan thinks White day should be more positive day for all Japanese people. They should give it to women to show your love and thankfulness whether they get chocolate from women on Valentine's day or not. So, their campaign message is “GODIVA NEW WHITE DAY”.

    Image of OK I feel OK is the image of circle. Everyone in the world recognize that circle, ⚪︎ is positive, correct image as you know contrasting with negative image of X. Circle itself expresses correct, safe, right, agree acceptable, satisfactory, nice. Here is the commercial which tell the situation using the ok. http://youtu.be/zqKovGMx9xo

    Looking for Japanese friends, I need help with Japanese.

    私わ居る日本語友達です。


    Is this Japanese correct?

     

    ↓

    私わは居るいる日本語の友達です。

    ↓

    私は日本の友達がいる(居る)。→わたしは日本の友達がいます。 I have a friend who speeks Japanese.

     

    OR

     

    私は日本の友達がいる(要る。必要)。→わたしは日本の友達をさがしています。 Looking for Japanese friends.

     

    OR

     

    私は日本語を話す友達がいる(要る。必要)。→わたしは日本語を話す友達をさがしています。 Looking for friends who speaks Japanese.

    IMAGINE REAL DAILY LIFE In this italki site, I don't understand the difference between “Start a new discussion” page and “ask a question” one. It seems almost same pages. Let me imagine the discussion in our real life. It occurs at conference room. Several people argue about something excitedly on real time. So I think in this site, “Start a new discussion” page should be at least “live chat” and several people should participate at the same time. I believe you can see the truth of things (in this case, on discussion) when you imagine on your real daily life, But if you don’t, you can’t notice the something different.
