I pass on the word "交通事故" (meaning: traffic accident).

I might be wrong, but I think the kanji for "furu" is 降る. btw, what textbook do u use (u seem pretty good at japanese, that's why i'm asking )?

「あれっ、何かあったの。」What happened?
"are, nanika atta no?"
「ひどい交通事故があったみたい。たぶん、飲酒運転者 のせいだ」"hidoi koutsuujiko ga atta mitai. tabun, inshu untensha no seida" Seems like a bad accident. Probably because of a drunk driver.


I pass: 平気（へいき）

Thanks for that kanji correction on furu, I messed up again.
But anyway, I use the Youkoso! textbook series in my formal classes.
And about my Japanese, mada jouzu ja nai.

when you use 一番, you need to also state what it is number 1 for
e.g. you could say 「一番美味しい食べ物だ」- best tasting
or: 「好きな食べ物の中で第一番」- number 1 out of my favourite foods
umm theres some other ways you can say it but i cant think of them at the moment ><

hmmmm
im not sure ive used that one before >< but ill give it a go
