[konohamarutard]

So beautiful ^^

Arigatou gozaimashita!

[WildNaru7]

I have a question. I've heard of Arigatou Gozaimasu, so whats the difference between that and Gozaimashita?

[konohamarutard]

It's um.. well.. let me get my verb book...

Well I couldn't find why in my verb book.. I think it's just like ga and wa... sometimes you say ga and sometimes you say wa, sometimes masu, sometimes mashita, it's both polite I think... But I'm not sure.. yeah.. xD stop listening to me x_x

[WildNaru7]

I don't mind listening. I take an interest in Japanese words because i find it so fascinating. And, all of that was a little funny. xD

[konohamarutard]

Hai hai x_X

I tend to be quite the clown around people..

beats me, it's good to make people laugh, though I do get angry when they label me as 'dumb' like happened today..

-sigh- erm.. here I go talking about myself to complete strangers again...

[wanderingfox42]

In response to ga vs wa. wa represents the subject of the sentence, while ga represents the direct object. For example "I understand Japanese" is "Watashiwa Nihongoga wakarimasu." (Watashiwa = I, Nihongoga = Japanese Language, wakarimasu = understand in present tense)

[KarasuNoGoh]

You speak japanese?

Can you tell me if this is correct:

"Anata wa,

Tabidachi dakara,

Watashi no kokoro wa,

Shinda"

[uberpizza]

@wanderingfox42

Actually...'

While wa is indeed the topic particle, ga is not the direct object particle; that is "o" (sometimes pronounced 'wo'). So, "I understand Japanese" would be

Watashi wa Nihongo o wakarimasu.

However, you don't really need the "watashi wa" if you're already talking about yourself, it's considered a bit excessive. Like if somebody asks you, "Anata wa Nihongo o wakarimasuka?" You can just reply with "Hai, Nihongo o wakarimasu."

[wanderingfox42]

Arigatou Gozaimasu is present tense. In other words it means "Thank you for this."

Arigatou Gozaimashita  is past tense. In other words it means "Thank you for that."

The first one is usually used in conversation when thanking someone for something they are doing for you (getting you a drink, paying for a meal, etc.) The second is typically used for when someone has already done something for you. It's commonly used by store clerks to thank you for a purchase.

[konohamarutard]

Yay! So my use was good :D thanks for sharing the information!

[Fenrir63]

hmmm....usually those with ---shita is past tense. not sure, I might be wrong

[mattyjungle]

@WildNaru7 Present and past tense. Artigatou gozaimashita means roughly "thanks for that"
