Thank you.
I'm just lazy in finding places to type in the actually hiragana/katakana/kanji, also because I prefer looking at English letterz when possible :wacko:

So......Touhou.

If it was me I'd say 計画は失敗した (keikaku wa shippaishita - the plan failed), or 計画は成功しなかった　(seikoushinakatta - didn't succeed), or 計画は効かない　(keikaku wa kikanai - the plan isn't being effective/shows no effect/isn't working out), or a new expression I learned recently, 計画は効を奏しない　(kou wo soushinai - the plan didn't bear fruit, sounds like a fancy expression to me and I haven't really heard it before :wacko: )

Although I'd take 効かない with a grain of salt. It's often used for military tactics (作戦は効かない), but for keikaku... eh, I dunno.

Hello all

So I have to give a demonstrative speech for my public speaking class which has to take 6 minutes. I would demonstrate how to take something to a vote and see if the majority of my class mates glasses in life half full or half empty I was going to come in with a glass of water and act like its my drinking water take a couple gulps and then get into my speech. Teacher like it what do you all think?

Having your eyes get used to kana is important in the long run. But at this point I'm not sure if you're actually serious about learning the language or if you're just lightly dabbling in it for the lulz. :wacko:

Also if you want to type in Japanese the same way you type in English, you have to use Microsoft IME.
