Okay, let's write something completely in Japanese here (with English translation at the end). :wink:

こんにちわ, どうしてる. (Konnichiwa, dou shi.teru.) (Hello, how's everything?) (It doesn't allow me to write shi.teru without a period or something between shi and teru. :roll: )

*This is all I could remember right now. :oops: :lol: *

Thanks Len. I think in correct japanese it's actually
こんにちは..... Don't know why, but they writing sometime は(ha) instead of わ(wa)... Partice wa(in english) is always written in japanese as ha.. maybe is word konnichiwa also actually a word "konnichi"(today)+ particle "wa"

:shock: I never realized it. Thank you. So, I've been learning that phrase in Hiragana wrong. Oh my... oh my...

And そんなにありがとう for the link in other thread, Hardi. I don't know how to say thank you enough. It's really useful. After you told me about the mistake, I used EC language tools to check the words to compare and I saw the mistake. Now I can use the EC language tools to get the correct words from English to Japanese, but I'll use your site to get the Japanese hiragana and translate it to English since the language tools don't allow me to use Romaji there. Words have to be in Hiragana or Kanji.
