It’s a much better number indicator of strength and skill than anything else. http://www.chasethegaijin.com/blog/2009/master-japanese-in-a-mere-37960000-days-lesson-13-how-many-12-year-olds-can-you-take-on-its-a-much-better-number-indicator-of-strength-and-skill-than-anything-else/ http://www.chasethegaijin.com/blog/2009/master-japanese-in-a-mere-37960000-days-lesson-13-how-many-12-year-olds-can-you-take-on-its-a-much-better-number-indicator-of-strength-and-skill-than-anything-else/#comments Thu, 17 Sep 2009 05:10:30 +0000 Chase The Gaijin http://www.chasethegaijin.com/blog/?p=622 Sometimes you win and sometimes a fish jumps out of the ocean and kills you when you’re on an ocean cruise. Let’s do 勝つ (かつ, win) and 負ける (まける, lose).

ちびっ子に負けても、我慢できて殺さなかった。
ちびっこにまけても、がまんできてころさなかった。
Even though I lost to the little brat I was able to stop myself from killing him.

試合を勝ったらアイスをおごるよ。
しあいをかったらアイスをおごるよ。
If we win the game I’ll treat with ice cream.

あいつを予想のつかないヤツだから勝つかどうk分からない。
あいつをよそうのつかないヤツだからかつかどうかわからない。
It’s hard to depict whether or not he’ll win since he’s so unpredictable.

Great. Now go play a sport with a little kid. When the game’s over you can yell one of the two words in their face.

I did the unpossible, which was made possible through the changing of potentitons into statitons.

This is also my score at the game of awesome.
My power level is over 9000.

It came as an early birthday present, which was nice. Now I’m planning to fail level two a couple of times, which should be fun.

Speaking of my birthday, it was quite birthdayish. I’ll be waiting for everyone to give me another birthday party whenever you see me. That’s how it works, right?

Further note. Your word for the week is 霜焼け (Shimoyake, Frost + Burn) which is what my fingers are recovering from because the owner of said fingers is a moron.
