Here's my best shot.

1)To be in this world does not necessarily mean you exist@¨

‚±‚̐¢ŠE‚É‚¢‚é‚©‚ç‚ɂ́A‘¶Ý‚·‚邯‚ÍŒÀ‚ç‚È‚¢B

2)to live does not necessarily mean you alive@¨

‘¶Ý‚·‚é‚©‚ç‚ɂ́A¶‚«‚Ä‚¢‚邯‚ÍŒÀ‚ç‚È‚¢B
______________________________________

3)That is why i am dying in this world@¨

i‚È‚ñ‚©ƒMƒRƒ`ƒiƒC˜a–ó‚Å‚·‚Ë‚¥[EEEÎj

It's late, so my brain isn't working at the moment.@ :crazy:

Also, if you are using windows XP, then you should be able to just add japanese to the language bar with the control panel menu.
If you are using win98 etc, then you can download Japanese Global IME from the microsoft website.

Cheers.

what does kakkoi mean?
i see this word being used to describe many artistes..
but dunno what it means..
23 Jul 2004, 12:55 #246
kakkoii is actually two words kakko and ii..

kakko means .. can't really think of a word to describe it but it means [how you look like] or something like that

ii means [good] or anything related to that word.. so kakkoii means he's very good-looking, very cool, when you see a person who you describe as kakkoii.. you find his actions or face very pleasing to you in your view of what a guy should be like..

sometimes used for girls when meaning [cool]

at least, this is how i would explain it.. ^^;;

Yep, you got it arashinokoto :D "Kakko" refers to appearance. So it's kinda like "appearance [is] nice". That's gradually crossed over to descriptions of other things, like saying something's "cool", I think.

maybe around "koukou" school age during athletic events. i recall watching a dorama (don't remember which one) that some girl did really good in this event and her friends went like: "aya-chan kakkoiiiiii!!!"

Yes. The statement is a unisexual one. Gender doesn't play a factor whatsoever.

and might i add, that when little kids try to pronouce this word, it comes out like: "kat-chewi"... :mrgreen:
24 Jul 2004, 10:10 #254
"kat-chewi", for some reason I find that funny.
28 Jul 2004, 04:46 #255
Then [awesome] could be the right word for it.

You can say of a guy that he's awesome (how he look/act)
where [kakko] would refer to [appearance]

niko2x wrote:

in this case, i believe [kakko] would refer to [performance/display of skill]

in the end, it depend of the context.

Can someone confirm or adjust my statement above ?

BTW, i don't speak yet but i just learned something new ^^

"Kaeba Iijan" means, "It's okay to go home."

"Tarukunai", ... I haven't heard of such a word.

aho‚³‚ñA‚¿‚å‚Á‚Æ’ù³‚·‚邯‚ǁA‚²‚ß‚ñ‚ˁI

kaeba iijan means, "why don't you change (something) then?"

As for Tarukunai, if it's Darukunai, then it means "not tired."

Anyways, a little intoxicated here so i'm gonna hit the hay.

Night all and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
