    Yes, katakana is more straight line-y, and maybe easier to adapt to writing. Although it can be difficult at first to tell the difference between 'so' and 'n', and 'shi' and 'tsu'. At least...I found it difficult. Eventually it just becomes second nature, though.

    It's funny when people talk about grammar and stuff, because I end up like "wut?" when someone talks about the "participle" in english and stuff.

    Probably it's because I learned english without proper classes or anything, just from watching the BBC Channel as a kid and ignoring the subtitles (I think that the news were un-subbed but the shows were), so yeah, many times when people studying english ask about me of stuff like "past participle" I don't have any idea of what they're talking about.

    I guess it's because I'm used to self-taught, same happened with the guitar, english and now Japanese, but I'm thinking that I will need classes for that.

    Whenever you feel ready. I'm not grammar nazi, so don't worry.

    It would be La Naranja instead. But it was close enough.

    Or if you were referring to a guy who is nicknamed "Naranja" then "El" it's correct.

    Thinking about it now, alot of our matches were kinda like a game of keep the shield away from Ivolt.
    At the time, it felt more like 'Try desperately to survive. '. I'm too nervy for fighting games, really.

    ...

    Also, I can't believe I lost that. I had a full health Chun-Li and both of your team were nearly dead. ; I really can't play as her.

    ...

    Plus you're a lot better at timing supers correctly. ;

    It's funny speaking to people that don't understand you. You start talking LOUDER. AND. SLOW-ER.

    Hee, no, I'm the same with English really. It comes too naturally. My brother did a teaching course in English before he left for Japan, and he asked me a lot of questions. It staggered me just how little I actually knew. I mean...I knew everything he asked, but...none of the proper names for any of it. I didn't really pay much attention in school as a kid. I just read a bunch of books. ;

    "I fucked your mom last night."

    The "ed" in this is a past participle, as it makes the word "fuck" the past tense "fucked"

    "I fucking love getting oral sex from your mom."

    In this case, the "ing" would be a present participle, as it makes the verb "fuck" present tense.

    Basically participles are words that change when a verb occurs.

    ...

    I'd make the world's worst english teacher.

    Every time some one uses Chun-Li I'm like "Damn her and her legs."
    You destroyed Ryu there.

    Once I had to talk to some customer when I worked at the warehouse club. He was american (I dislike that term, it's like they own the whole continent, over here we call them estadounidenses, which I like better, but eh) and tried to talk in spanish with me. I did talk slowly to him.

    After several failed tries of saying "Cuanto cuesta?" (How much?) he just got angry and said: "Fuck your beaner language".

    I just smiled and told him: "I understood what you said, sir, have a nice day and don't forget to bring a dictionary next time."
    He got angry and left.

    I lol'd.

    You'd giggle whenever you were going through verbs and said 'to come', wouldn't you?

    ...

    Okay, my older brother totally did that too. ; He asked for a list of Japanese verbs before he left. And when I said 'kuru' meant 'to come', he just burst out laughing. Filthy, I say! ;

    I don't know what feeling hit me more upon reading this post. I'm torn between "Gosh, it's pretty shameful to be a monolingual English speaker..." and "Gosh, Fer is completely awesome!"

    ...

    Let's go with the second one.

    OMG I LOVE U. <3

    You need to open a school. And get lots of girls in it. With nice uniforms.
    I wanna be the coach of whatever sports team they create in there.
    I'll pick the uniform.

    Okay, my older brother totally did that too. ; He asked for a list of Japanese verbs before he left. And when I said 'kuru' meant 'to come', he just burst out laughing. Filthy, I say! ;
    So that's what it means!
