I write a lot back and forth with a Japanese guy and I noticed that sometimes (when he needs to use the pronoun you) he uses あなた and sometimes he uses ジジさん or ジジさんの instead of your (that is my real name). I started using it too (you know...we learner are very copycat  ) tho I don't know if this use is formal or if there are only certain occasions when you can do it...any explanation? |
Can you translate that hiragana? I'm cant really read hiragana yet
I can understand a little of your hiragana symbols but not all
