It is correct.

It's the 'watashi no shashin' bit that I'm dubious about.

I'd have a tendency to think of the sentence as "My father likes taking my pictures." rather than "My father likes taking pictures of me."

Hmm....it seems sorta correct, but it sounds a bit funny (to me). I'm not quite sure how to make it right, but would it be possible to change the particle after Ž„ (watashi) to ‚ð (wo)?

>When I was a kid I ate very slow, so my mom usually got mad at me.

That would make it-

"chichi ha watashi wo shashin wo toru no ga suki desu."

Which is incorrect. However, given the sentence in context,

"chichi ha watashi wo toru no ga suki desu." By negating 'no shashin' the sentence is correct in this way. (^^)::

Ok, this is gonna sound stupid, but can someone tell me some dog commands in Japanese (sit, stay, lay down, be good, speak/bark, give me your paw, etc)? :hehe:

Hey hon,

:crazy2: :crazy2:


J/K!
*LOL* (and I mean that! :love_eyes: )

:hehe:
I'd assume that there wouldn't be no special way or anything.

I've never had a "Japanese" dog before. (Y'know, the kind that goes 'wan wan') I only have an "American" dog. (the kind that goes woof woof)

Anyone care to enlighten us?

LOL, my dog was trained like 6 years ago....she was trained in mostly English but some commands were in German. This is common. I don't know any German, so I forget the commands (except for "plotz" but she probably forgets too, hehehe). I forget why they do it, but it keeps them from getting words mixed up with other words that sound alike in English. So I thought it would be neat to teach my dog some Japanese commands :mrgreen:

Plus my sister has 3 dogs, one is an Akita Inu. I thought it might be fun to teach her some too. She doesn't go "wan wan" though ;) She doesn't really bark at all.

Oh my. Brings back some memories. My good friend back in elementary school had an Akita. His name was Bunji. That dog lived till he was 15 years old. :nut: Felt sorry for him as he was so frail before he died.

Personally, I like smaller dogs. :D

My dog is a real dog! Small, but a real dog! =P

She's a mix of Jack Russell and Lab and something else. Smarter than I am too! :D :beaten:
