are you a native speaker or you have learned it. I am using online sources to learn Jap language. So i can communicate with Japanese people kindly.

Would like to work in Japan in the near future...any quick way to achieve this??

Thanks

Marqus

There is no quick way to learn a language.
Also "Jap" is a racist word; you would do well not to use it.

Should probly be:
「何言ってんの」という文章は教科書には絶対に見られ ない
or
教科書には「何言ってんの」という文章が絶対に見られ ない

:)

Why is that? I haven't read all textbook. I can talk about personal experience, nothing absolute. I can't really understand if you were trying to correct me or being sarcastic. But you should have added something like そんな文 in the phrase, coz I didn't limit it to the sole phrase 何言ってんの :)

One thing I want to point out is this みたい (as opposed to 見たい) is a な-adjective, so it would be 〜みたいな文章, not 〜みたい文章.

If you're interested, you will get yourself a good introductory lesson on the colloquial speech just by re-reading the replies to questions asked by members like Snowrill and delacroix01 as they ask questions from manga.

I myself just explained the てん contraction a few days ago at http://www.japanforum.com/forum/japa...ekimasu-4.html.

glad to know that you have been there for such a long time....I didn't have any bad intense to use "Jap" word....but good to know the tradition before speaking or writing this type of word.

cheers
Marqus....:-)
