Women may use atashi.] [NOTE 2: This guide does not use the most formal Japanese, but gaming typically does not require formal Japanese (which is more commonly used to show respect to elders or in a business situation). As a rule of thumb, it is good to be polite regardless of how informal this is, because Japanese are very courteous. Some people find all the niceties annoying � those people shouldn�t party with Japanese.] Inspecting Equipment --------------------------------------------- Excuse me.

(Otsukaresama desita!) --------------------------------------------- [NOTE: It is common to combine words in the Japanese language, (this is probably due to the way Japanese is written out in hiragana, katakana, and kanji - written without breaks). So if a word appears to be unusually long � try to break it down. For example, mata ne = matane.] [NOTE 2 : Although certain words have similar meaning, they may be used best in different situations. Like English, there are different ways to say the same thing. Keep in mind, some phrases are best used by females and some by males. On one gamefaq it said to use "Boku...", but boku is inappropriate for females to say, and should be instead used by younger males.] Coming and Going --------------------------------------------- Come here - Chotto kochi kite --------------------------------------------- Can you come - Koreru --------------------------------------------- I'm coming now - Ima iku --------------------------------------------- I can go � Ikeru --------------------------------------------- I can't go - Ikenai --------------------------------------------- I want to go - Ikitai --------------------------------------------- I don't want to go - Ikitakunai --------------------------------------------- Don't go - Ikanaide --------------------------------------------- Shall we go? � Ikimashouka? --------------------------------------------- Let's go - Ikuzo (Ikimashou) --------------------------------------------- Follow me please - Tsuitekite kudasai. --------------------------------------------- Don't go too fast please. - Anmari hayaku ikanaide kudasai. --------------------------------------------- I'm going back � Kaerimasu / Modorimasu --------------------------------------------- I'm not in a hurry - Isoide imasen. --------------------------------------------- I'm leaving soon - Mo sugu deru --------------------------------------------- Sorry, I have to go in 30 minutes. � Gomennasai, ato 30pun gurai de ochimasu. --------------------------------------------- Sorry, but I have to go now - Sumimasen, ima ikanakutewa ikemasen --------------------------------------------- I�m going to the toilet - Toire (toilet) ittekimasu --------------------------------------------- I need to reboot, be back soon - PC o REBOOT shte, sugu modorimasu --------------------------------------------- I'm going to get a signet - shigu ittekimasu --------------------------------------------- I'm going to my mog house - mogurimasu --------------------------------------------- Stay here please - Kokoni ite kudasai --------------------------------------------- Where are you? � Doko ni imasuka? --------------------------------------------- Where are you going? - Doko iku-no? --------------------------------------------- I don�t know where [place] is � [place] dokoni aruka shiranai. --------------------------------------------- Where is [place]? � [place] wa doko desuka? --------------------------------------------- How do I get to [place]? � [place] wa dou itta houga ii? --------------------------------------------- I went to Bastok- Basu e ikimashta --------------------------------------------- I am in Selbina � Watashi wa Serubina ni imasu. --------------------------------------------- This way � Kochira --------------------------------------------- That way � Sochira --------------------------------------------- That way over there � Achira --------------------------------------------- Which way � Dochira --------------------------------------------- To the right � Migi no hooni --------------------------------------------- To the left � Hidari no hooni --------------------------------------------- You turn right � Migi e magarimasu --------------------------------------------- You turn left � Hidari e magarimasu --------------------------------------------- It�s near � Chikai desu --------------------------------------------- It�s far � Tooi desu --------------------------------------------- Let's go back to [place] - [place] he modorimashou --------------------------------------------- We should go to [place] - [place] he modoru beki da --------------------------------------------- I'm going to [place] - [place] he ikimasu --------------------------------------------- Words and Shorter Phrases Adjectives --------------------------------------------- Cute � Kawaii --------------------------------------------- Cool � Kakkoii --------------------------------------------- Beautiful, pretty, clean � Kirei (na) --------------------------------------------- Wonderful, attractive � Suteki (na) --------------------------------------------- Fine, splendid - Rippa (na) --------------------------------------------- New - Atarashii --------------------------------------------- Old - Furui --------------------------------------------- Small - Chiisai --------------------------------------------- Big - Ookii --------------------------------------------- Dangerous - Abunai --------------------------------------------- Scary � Kowai --------------------------------------------- Pitiful (how sad) - Kawaisou (na) --------------------------------------------- Troublesome � Mendokusai --------------------------------------------- Exclamations --------------------------------------------- Hurray!
