Um, then would "Watashi wa desu" work better? I'm just starting to learn Japanese and thought I'd see if anyone here would get that.

Watashi desu translates litterally to "I be" or "I am" depending upon what you were taught.

Cantor no baka. Ii, Cantor no baka^2.

You'd be short a word. the format is A wa B desu. A is B. You'd have to call yourself something. Watashi wa Hazer desu. I am Hazer.

Baka.

Everyone should know what baka is. It's pratically the first word that you learn.... Oh, wait... you're taking actual classes to learn Japanese aren't you? Baka.... Go ask your local otaku about the word baka. It's such a useful word to know....

Where's Ja'Deth when you need him? He know more about this than I do....

Bah, any film buff, anime or otherwise, should recognize the word baka, since Kurosawa uses it as the name for one of the key characters in Ran. And since the name is also his job description . . .

Green Legend Ran?

It must have been a while since I've seen it... I don't remember there being a character named 'Baka'.....

Although seeing it written on Photon's head was rather amusing.... And him writing it on thoes 3 chiq's heads at the end....

I watch anime, and read MT. I know what it means.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

Oh dear.

Ran: Live action movie, Kurasawa's version of Shakespeare's King Lear. NOT ANIME. Ahem.

Akira Kurasawa: One of the greatest directors of all times. NOTE: Has nothing to do with any anime character that has ever been named Akira.

Ohhhh.... That's why it wasn't clicking. I know of Kurasawa Akira, but I haven't seen anything.... You just mentioned Ran and the first thing that came to mind was GLR....

My understanding of japanese is too limited to translate that... however I'd be willing to venture a guess that the word 'death' or 'die' appears...

And I know it's not "You are already dead"...

Why don't you just tell me what baka means? Or do you not know? Ha! that must be it! you say you know it but are too embarassed to admit it! Your pretend to know, but do not want to face the shame (of which there really is none) of not knowing it!

Either that, or you just think it's funny that I don't know it and want me not to know it because you derive pleasure from others misfortunes of which they cannot control!

Either on of those, or you just haven't told me for some other reason.

BTW, what's an otaku?

Baka is essentially a pervert, or something to that effect...

Otaku actually means obsessed, but it's become slang for an Anime-Fanatic..

baka == fool, idiot, dork, and several other things. Consider it to be the same thing as looking at someone and saying "Well DUH!"...

And otaku means home/house literally translated. However it also refers to someone that's obcessed with something and as of late has become an attachment to anime freaks. They're no longet anime fanatics/nuts, they're anime otaku or just otaku simply.... It's messed up, but it's the word we were slapped with...
