Oh, hey, look at me getting back on track. For ease of reference, the last entry was here. Ages ago. Oops. :/

So, let's start with some simple yes/no questions. Translate!
アメリカじんですか。
にねんせいですか。
せんせいですか。
かいしゃいんですか。

Slightly more complex questions!
しごとはなんですか。
せんもんはなんですか。
いまはなんじですか。
あなたはなんせいですか。　あなた = you (the second person pronoun is VERY rarely used)
これはなんですか。　これ = this

That's probably one of the most useful phrases you will learn in the Japanese language: kore-wa nandesuka. これはなんですか。

If you want to do some more --desu construction sentences and question and answer, the original vocabulary is here. I promise we'll move on on Wednesday. >.>


Hey look! Routines I can maintain them. Or at least start them up again. I have also repotted the sage into something with more room for its roots to go down and its plantness to go up. Hopefully up and not sideways. Sideways sage looks funny. Tomorrow I think I will start uprooting the shit out of everything in the front yard directly in front of the house, except the daffodils. I hope. I like the daffodils, but I'd like them a lot better if they weren't surrounded by shit I don't want to keep.

And now, writing. And possibly eating leftover stew if the boy doesn't get his sleepy ass down here so I know to grill chicken. Or have a reason to grill chicken. Because right now I have more lazy than reasons to grill half-frozen chicken.
