Hello! My name is Rebecca, I'm an American who is learning to become an engineer, but I'm currently learning how to speak Japanese! Granted I don't have any certificates or degrees in English, I am a native English speaker, and have spoken it my whole life; if anyone is interested in an English language exchange let me know! ;)

    Is this translation correct? Would "phrase book" translate as "日本語の句本"?

    I would advise talking to as many people as you can in English. My mentor advises us to Skype with people who are fluent in the language, and use them as a living textbook! Also, something I find helpful, is that I ask the person at the end of the call [you can do it during too :) ] what or how could I improve (e.g. pronunciation/accent, grammar, vocabulary, correct word usage). Hopes this helps!

    Is my explanation correct for why locations CAN be the direct object of motion verbs? Both in English and Japanese, it is commonly agreed that LOCATIONS CANNOT MOVE, but instead we (as in ANIMATE BEINGS) move. But, in Japanese it ISN'T necessary to have a word like "through" to describe the direct object of motion verbs, because LOCATIONS ARE STATIONARY, and it's just a superfluous step. I'm paraphrasing this from "Tae Kim's Guide to Learning Japanese: Japanese Grammar Guide". She writes, "Unlike the direct object we're familiar with in English, places can also be the direct object of motion verbs such as あるく　and　はしる. Since the motion verb is done to the location, the concept of direct object is the same in Japanese."

    Who is this person?

    This boy is an intelligent, organized, and excelllent student. He learns how to take good notes, and he usually is *exaggerated.

     

    *I presume the context of exaggerated you're using is to describe the boy as worth of praise. If so, I would use the word <em>commendable</em> or <em>praiseworthy</em><em></em> instead.

    Is it possible to have a question with the particle は in it, and respond with が to it? I'm trying to come up with basic rules for my Japanese grammar notes, but I'm not too sure how to write it for this situation. I have a feeling it's not possible to ask question that has the particle は in it, and have the responder reply with the particle が.
