Hello, I am an American-born Taiwanese girl living near New York City. My hobbies include cooking, traveling, watching Korean and Japanese movies/shows. I also enjoy playing online games, reading books, and digital painting. I was an English teacher in Japan so I hope I can offer my English teaching skills in return for any Japanese language help/conversation/exchange. Here on iTalki, I wish to exchange in a friendly, fun, and casual setting. Thanks much! Looking forward to meeting many people! こんにちは、始めまして。ニューヨークに住んでいます。英会話の先生だしたから、頑張って教えます。^^世界中人友達作りたいです^^ 友達になりましょうか^^

    1. sometimes we use 'whoosh' for the effect of something very fast flying by you. 2. for falling into water, 'splash' 3. and for sneezing I've seen it written 'ah-choo' or 'achoo' For what purpose do you need these kinds of words for? Perhaps with a certain purpose that you need, there are better specified words for these situations.

    Jajangmeun (Korean noodles with black bean sauce) Today I tried for the first time, jajangmeun! It's a Korean dish: noodles served with stewed black bean sauce (with vegetables). It was super delicious and I was so happy to discover a new noodle dish I really like. I just don't know how I've lived this long in my life and never noticed a good hearty dish like this. I love Korean food but that might the problem in itself: I always get the same Korean dishes and I don't venture out beyond my boundaries and try new dishes. Yet, today I was happy I did. Have you tried Jajangmeun? today's recording: ジャジャンミュンはすごく美味しい~チャンスがあったら、食べてみてください。 How's my intonation and pronunciation? Thanks!

    Alright! Skype! I was finally able to get my password back from my skype account I use for iTalki. Feel free to send a message for an add. My account name should be listed on my profile. I wish Skype allowed multiple logins like gmail does. I have so many accounts for different purposes: business, family, languages, gaming, etc. I have just as many for emails and whatnot. This whole creating accounts for everything is a little annoying especially with spam hackers and viruses getting smarter these days. And skype doesn't even do multiple video yet! Why do I pay for skype credit... では、スカイプで楽しみましょう! ヾ(*'0'*)マ!!ヾ(*'O'*)タ!!ヾ(*'。'*)ネ!! PS = testing this new voice recording option. It's pretty neat and I like it. Does anyone else use the voice recording option?

    Well I would suppose at times that these phrases, "Made in China" or "Product of China" can mean the same thing. However, upon thinking about it further, I seem to see more food items where I shop (in the USA) with "Product of China" because food is 'produced.' Whereas, "made in China" may refer more to a manufactured item. So I think in general it is simply a grammatical nuance.

    How does one "check out" at the supermarket cashier in your country? For example, do you bring your own bags? Is there a bagger or do you bag your own groceries? Do you usually pay in cash? Credit card? Is there a card swiper? What are the fine details of this process that a foreign visitor might want to know about your country. :)

    been so busy recently Sorry been so busy recently with work and daily chores. Can you believe how much time just daily chores can take up in a day!? Simply washing dishes, cooking, and cleaning takes up more time than the satisfying eating-dinner part which I wish could be better. Maybe in the future we all could just pop a pill and be full with a turkey dinner pill. But I'll probably be dead and gone by then... >teardrop<

    Happy 추석 to all Koreans :) So I learned tomorrow is 추석(Chusok), a Korean national holiday, similar to that of Thanksgiving in the United States, where families gather to say thanks and celebrate all kinds of wealth and givings of historical and traditional times. I think it's so wonderful to have this kind of holiday. It makes for a good excuse to get together with family you have not seen in a long time or just another reason to party on.
