Thanks for the reply but my vocabulary is still lacking and I only know around 150 kanji lol

英語　は　話せますか？

Do I speak English? Yeah, sorta....

umiXXshounen · (#5 (**permalink**))

cool! so what did you say exactly in japanese lol?

Nagoyankee · (#6 (**permalink**))

I said something like "I would like to be of help if you thought I was good enough." It's not easy to translate what I said because I used expressions of modesty/humility peculiar to Japanese.

あああ。。。　その　こと　は　知ります。　But yeah it would be a great help if you I could just ask you some questions. Its for a Japanese conversation course I'm taking.

Just post the questions here so some other Japanese will be seeing them as well. I'll answer either here or in a PM depending on the questions.

A couple of questions. Maybe you can edit.

5. By 学高, do you mean　学校 (school)?

7. I don't understand this question. お前のみらい means "you bastard's future". lol
