I'm currently studying Japanese while living here in the US. I hope to meet some people here and improve my speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. Although I don't have a formal degree in teaching (I have a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science), I love reading and writing in my native language and may be interested in talking to people who are looking to improve their English.

    いったい Examples I have two example sentences that demonstrate the usage of the word いったい, but I'm having trouble understanding them fully. そんなにやせてしまって、いったいどうしたの？ To me, this sounds like "How on earth did you lose so much weight?" but I'm not certain if that's correct, since I've seen どうしたの used for "What's wrong?" type scenarios. いったいあなたは何を考えてそんなことをしたんですか？ I'm not sure what the 考えて is doing here, but it sounds kind of like "What on earth did you do?" otherwise.

    Perhaps one of these words would work for this: vain, shallow, boastful, egotistical. Vain or shallow would be the best, I think. They can describe a person who is "into appearances", who cares too much about clothing, accessories, etc. and how they (and/or their wealth) are perceived by others.

    This is a difficult sentence. It's basically saying that, if you are in this family operation, you will be included in discussions, or you will be a part of discussions. You can discuss things with the other people there. If you are not in this family operation, then you may not be included in discussions. Therefore, being in the family operation is a good thing.

    It likely means something like "She is very beautiful." But I have never heard this phrase before. Literally, "mink" is an animal and its fur is sometimes used in clothing (like coats). So "a sleek bit" of it would refer to a nice quality piece of that material, which is very expensive and highly valued by some. We would not use language like this to compliment somebody.

    "Drop off" isn't typically used for sleeping. "Drop off" is usually used to state that you are taking a person to a specific location and leaving them there. For example: Tomorrow, I will drop you off at the mall. For your second sentence, you would say "fall asleep" rather than "fall sleep."

    Where's Central park? - Good. What's the address of Central park? - Good. What's the Central park's address? - No need for the word "the" here, because we're referring to specifically named location (Central Park) and thus don't need "the" to further specify it. I would also capitalize "Park" in these sentences since "Central Park" is the full, proper title of the location.
