Wow, that sucks, so interesting is omoshiroi, and interested in kyoumi? Can you use omoshiroi here as well, or it has to be kyoumi?

[Gimmeaflakeman]

Not interchangeable.

It is just like English.

That is interesting. = Sore wa omoshiroi.

I'm interested in that. = Sore ni kyoumi ga aru.

Haha I like when Tomoke is on, she's fun/funny =P

[AdmiralGreenscreen]

@Gimmeaflakeman no, wa, ga and others are all punctuation. I don't know the precise meanings, but that's why.

[mountaincritter]

Ah! I didn't know this, thanks for sharing!

[Sunkan86]

Hehe I see, didn't seem impossible just never heard of the form before :) Thanks! I guess it's the same form that originates from phraces like: 何々するの　が　好き、洗うの　を　手伝う など。　Just different particles after the phrace I guess, right? :) You look like a native speaker so I trust your wisdom fully :P
