W-w-w-w-wait a minute. I thought kaze (風) meant "wind" in Japanese. So let me get this straight: kanji can have TWO meanings?

[thejapanshop]

Not quite. Both are "kaze," but "wind" is 風 and "cold (sickness)" is 風邪.

[ryuzakilawlight]

watashi wa kaze o hiita - can i say this sentense as well? (pm me to let me know)

[thejapanshop]

Yes, that is fine.

[GameShowGuy]

In hanazumari, why is the tsu with the tick marks used for "zu"? Is it ok to use ず?

[thejapanshop]

Although it sounds the same, the づ and ず are different and you should be careful to remember which is which when you learn a new word. In this case these are two different words: 「はな」 and 「つまり」 . The つ adds the 'tenten' to become づ zu.

you guys think of some of the best lessons!

[PumpkinMozie]

Is "kaze wo hiita" casual Japanese? If so, what would be a more polite way of saying it?

[s3xyScorp]

SCRAP the supid music plz,so we can hear the japanese better!!

[ParamoreDeepRock]

is this correct for 'I've been coughing and sneezing.' 私は、咳やくしゃみしてきた。

So how come in a japanese video, the background music has a part of the National Anthem of Germany? I love that anthem tho ^^

[logicgirl09]

If I want to say "You have a runny nose."

Would it be "Anata wa hanamizu desu."?

I think I'm missing a partical or I got the ending wrong.

[PumpkinMozie]

@Choky555 thanks!! :)

[Choky555]

@PumpkinMozie I think it would be Kaze o Hikimashita.

[aimmaster18]

Nice Vids.. but why you use the german national anthem as the backround song? :P

[davethewave1223221]

i cant hear with all that bullshit music in the background
