For you, it's probably not suprising at all, that first Japanese phrase I learned was "Anta wa baka desu!" and then I learned "watashi wa baka ja nai" I think it was right.. I can write also like this too
あんたはばかです!, but usually not read, since japanese are lazy to, but breaks betwen words. So I did not but them too, because, If they like to do all hard for others, then I also do it as well. Well that's actually all what I know.

Oh Hardi, who taught you such a Japanese "Anta wa baka desu!" ?

By the way, do you know "Anta ha erai!" mean ?
This means "You are great!"

Try to use it for Japanese friends. :D

Are you sure? I knew "anta" is impolite.. but "anata" is polite.. It seems also logical, if I wanna shout to someone, then anta fits better. But aren't Japanese using names instead of "you",
My dictionary says that "erai" means also "great; celebrated; eminent; terrible; awful; famous; remarkable; excellent" All these! So better I don't believe what you saying. Maybe it means actually that you are awful?

Anyway, nobody taught me. That's all my own research, to get know how to say that sentense. Native speakers don't wanna taught such things to me... Well after asking something about many times. I got know the same sentense in chinese, but that was too difficult for me. Japanese seems easier... though japanese pronunciation I don't know yet.. some vowels seems to be same like estonian, but..

pretty?!!! that parse I wrote, means you are idiot. Its easy to get those words u must install a Japanese input method. I'm using linux here is Skim for that purpose.. But I remember that I have got Japanese input for windows98 too.. it was a part of Internet Explorer 6... it makes a little thing into systemtry near of clock, where u can change input method.. it convert all text you type into hiragana and with spacebar u can also switch text betwen hiragana, katakana and kanji.
