I think it's like "is it right we're friends?" or "could we say we're friends" or something?

Anyway, I'm pretty sure those could be wrong, but everything else, I get.
It's just that one part I can't wrap my head around. @__@

-Rin :,)
As SianaRei stated, you need to provide some context as it is not something one would say out of the blue. There had to be an exchange of words before this particular line was said. It had to be said in response to some statement or question. Its meaning (and therefore its translation) would depend heavily on the context.


Your Japanese proficiency shall be in direct proportion
to your true interest in the Japanese Mind.
