    Wow!! I'm impressed sis Houda!

    Ohayo gozaimasu!

    O-genki desu ka.

    P.S. Konnichiwa can be used for "hello" as well as "good afternoon"

    Konbanwa is "good evening"

    So you're learing Japanese too?

    Asslam Alaikoum/ Kon'nichi wa

    La ya khoya I’m not learning Japanese. A friend from chuugaku-sei {Junior School, yep back in the olden days LOL} taught me a few phrases and it has stuck with me ever since.

    So why Japanese ya Khoya, if you don’t mind me asking ?

    Wa Salam

    Konnichiwa sis Houda!
    Hai, genki desu. Anata wa.

    The word for brother? I don't know...Actually, I looked it up in the dictionary but it gave me LOADS of words. I don't know which is the right one to use. The closest would be I think is "Oto" for younger brother or "Aniki" for older brother. I can't seem to find a simple word to just mean "brother". Aii! You started me off now! I have to know!!

    Better we ask Sakuracat don't you think?

    Why I'm learning japanese? Well...

    1/ I luuuuurve languages
    2/ I like foreign films including japanese but hate reading subtitles
    3/ would love to visit Japan one day inshAllah
    4/ Most Japanese are experts in politeness , diligence, respect and punctuality. In fact, I admire their culture - undeniably an example that "modernity" and "tradition" can go hand in hand. Sometimes, you'd think that they are muslims but lacking Islam - we can learn a lot from them indeed!
    5/ I practice Karate in which many japanese words are used
    6/ A personal challenge seen that japanese is often regarded as a very difficult language to learn!
    7/ Why not?

    Enough reasons for you sis?

    Mmm...sis Houda, tell me, this friend at "chuugaku-sei", would her name be http://www.japanese-online.com ...because I've just noticed that your name is Houda-k MILLER!!! Are you related to Mr. Jason Miller in any way?

    Just an observation

    Ja mata!
