What are they saying? I can tell you.

I’m leaving for Europe and will be back early October. But I have reserved blog posts so that you can enjoy reading them even while I am away. But please understand your comment moderation may need time to be approved, as I am not sure how often I will check emails there.

You may think that I am such a frequent traveler, I wish I were. :p  This year is something special. I have not been travelling abroad for the past 4-5 years. Flying to Europe from Japan is not easy. It costs me much money and I have to struggle with jetlag. I don’t like the long-hour flight, either.

BTW, let me accept my apology for any inconvenience you may have had these days with this blog.  I found something was wrong with it, as it was not displayed correctly.  As for this error, I asked my host server to fix it yesterday, and so it’ll be no problem by now, I suppose…

My email address, the one in contact form, however, is not working properly at this moment, and I am trying to have it fixed.  Because of this, I am needing time to reply to those who emailed me during this period.  (I can receive emails but I cannot send them.) 

If I cannot have this problem fixed, I may not be able to send you emails from my email address for a while.  It’s so restless but I may have to leave tomorrow with this problem unsettled.  So please do not worry if you don’t receive replies from me for a while.  I am not ignoring your emails.  I am suffering from some technical issue.  (T_T) *crying*

I made a simple video to reply to the comment from Amanda, and it tells you how it’d be like to have Kanji name. You can have any combination of Kanji that you like! Hope she likes my suggestion better than other options she had.

Enjoy your Kanji!

Thank you so much for your comments to my Japanese video.  I was really wondering if I should ever start Japanese tutorial videos like this, although I have received requests from my blog readers from time to time.

I found comments from my blog readers sound so interesting, as I never know what you’d feel confused or difficult when you learn Japanese.  You know, when I mean I never know, which is because it’s a mother tongue to me and I am not a qualified Japanese teacher. But thanks to your opinions and comments, I think I know what I should explain in my following videos. 

BTW, I found an interesting Japanese site that lists foreign names (British, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Greek, Finnish, Russian and Korean) described in Katakana!  Now you know why these are to be in Katakana, and not in Hiragana.

Your name in Katakana

*Press the flag. 3 flags for one country means; 1st one for male name, 2nd one for female name, and the 3rd one for family name.

Your name may not be there, as there’s no way the site can cover every name. You may also wonder how your name can be described in Kanji. This is a frequently asked question all the time, but I’ll spare a post on that for next time!

Enjoy your name in Japanese!
