Don't confuse the issue. My point was that you have never studied Japanese, so why should I help you?
Why not? I'm not welcome if I don't know any Japanese?

It means what you asked for. You asked for a translation, I gave you one. Why would I give you something else in Japanese you didn't ask for?

Heck, I even referred you to a dictionary entry for about 90% of what I said.
I meant could you please tell me the words as I don't know those characters, so I can't pronounce what it says.

I'm sorry I don't know any Japanese, but I really want to learn.
