1. I am well aware that what is typed here is not actually Japanese, but for the purposes of this thread, let us just call it Japanese.
2. I understand that much Japanese does not translate well into English, and that some things don't really have a literal translation. Just give me your best translation, and I'll be satisfied.
3. Silent "u" in "desu"? Really? I knew "u"s weren't stressed much at the end of a word (gozaimasu, for example, I thought was gozaimas) but I didn't know they were left off completely. Interesting.
4. What does "hidoi desu" mean?
5. SB, you are only 13? And yet you learn Japanese in school? W00T! Do you live in the U.S., or in some country with a better educational system? If you live in the U.S., what state? Is this Japanese class some sort of extracurricular, or an advanced class? I envy you. I won't get to take Japanese till ninth grade, if it doesn't fill up too fast.
6. Oh yeah, what about "ganbatte ne"?

OK, thank you. I shall wait for more info.
