Sounds like the Italian word "Mangiare" which I'm pretty sure means 'to eat.' So it must be the name of a restaurant. That's the only thing I can think of...
HTH,

However, I would really appreciate it if someone could give it and quick read and tell me what they think. I've enclosed the words which were left blank in parenthesis []. I've put in my words, but if you think there are words which are better suited, please let me know. Each blank space is being given a number so as to make referencing them in the future easier. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks to anyone in advance. Any help is much appreciated.
P.S. Ifm also hoping to move into translation work after my studies, so Ifm translating everything I can get my hands on. I translated the two conversations below, would anyone (who is obviously fluent in both Japanese and English) be kind enough to have a look and let me know if Ifve translated it correctly? Again, many thanks.
----------------------
CONVERSATION A:
A: How was your weekend?
B: I went to see a concert in the park on Saturday. It was very interesting.
A: Ah, really? It rained during the afternoon, didnft it? Did you take an umbrella?
B: No, I went without taking an umbrella. So unfortunately, I caught a little cold. How about you? How was your weekend?
A: I didnft go anywhere, I stayed at home instead (i.e. stayed at home relaxing slowly).
CONVERSATION B:
A: Teacher, how do I read this kanji? I looked it up in a dictionary as you taught me but it wasnft there.
B: Itfs read as gKIN-ENh.
A: Does it mean you arenft allowed to smoke?
B: Thatfs right.
A: This year Ifm thinking of studying even more kanji. Teacher, whatfs the best way of being able to memorise kanji?
B: The more you practise, the better you can memorise them. Writing them out several times is very important.
A: After the next class, it is possible for me to ask you a few more questions?
B: Of course. However, if itfs about kanji you should ask Ms. C. There are lots of kanji I donft know.

Aegigoe ga kikoemasu.
I can hear the sound of wheezing/coughing.
Oh, and ƒEƒbƒtƒ“ looks like the phonetic sound of "coughing/wheezing" witten in katakana, though I'm not 100% sure. If this is incorrect, someone please feel free to correct me (and that goes for anything else I've posted about).
Hope that helps.

Good morning in Japanese = Ohayo. To be more polite, you say Ohayo Gozaimasu.
