Typing Japanese character. I have communicated with pen pal and friends in the world in italki,skype, or anything in a while.Sometimes I'm asked how to type Japanese character in them computer.Now that you say that, I have never known how to set up a computer to type Japanese character.Because in Japan,A computer was already set up when I bought that.I can't explain well about Ime software.One more thing,We Japanese people have a special keyboard.But most of them don't use Hiragana input.You know we input Japanese character by Roma-ji input.

Feel an eathquake Last Saturday,An big earthquake occurred in All of Japan.It's long time no occurred as big as that one in Tokyo.It was long cycle, lateral vibration and long time shaking.Then on Sunday,I went to my English conversation school. I told my instructor about the earthquake.I want to get an expression of detail of an earthquake.However her explanation is not enough for me.That was like an one-dimensional for example:big or small,intence and a few words.I asked her that "I and most of Japanese people can feel and catch shaking of an earthquake that is long or short cycle,vertical or horizontal vibration,wide or narrow amplitude.Can you feel that?".She has not known there are some types of earthquake.Is that Japanese people specific? 先週の土曜日、日本全土におよぶ大きな地震が発生しました。東京であのくらい大きい地震が起きたのは久しぶりだとおもいます。長周期で横揺れで長い時間揺れました。翌日の日曜日、私は英会話学校に行きました。インストラクターと地震のことについて話しました。私は地震の（揺れ方の）詳細の言い表し方を習得したかったのですが、彼女の説明は十分とは言えなかったです。それらは一次元的で大きい 小さい、激しいとかそういった言葉でした。私は彼女に言いました。”私も多くの日本人も地震の揺れを感じて（揺れ方が）分かりますよ。周期の長い短い、縦揺れか横揺れか、振幅の大きい小さいとか。あなたは感じることが出来ませんか？”彼女は地震（の揺れ方）にいくつかの種類があることを知らなかったです。これって日本人特有のものなのでしょうか？

I'll bring my Indian friends to dinner. I'll go to dinner with my Indian friend tomorrow (It's at 3am in Japan.Should I say today?).He came to Tokyo from India for his job.I would like to entertain him and ask him what you want to eat.He said everything is okay however forced to say something spicy food is wanted a little.This time,I'll bring him to chinese or asian singapore food restaurant.And next time,I think we are going to have a Japanese food what he has never eaten and known. 明日（今日本は午前３時なので今日かな？）私はインド人の友達と夕食に行きます。彼は仕事でインドから日本に来ました。私は彼をもてなしたいので彼に何が食べたいか聞きました。彼は何でも良いけど強いて言えば何か辛いものが欲しいと言いました。今回は中華料理かシンガポール料理のレストランに彼を連れていくつもりです。そして次回は彼が食べたことが無くて知ら無い日本食を食べに行こうと思います。
