otukaresamades-....dun really know how to describe the meaning...(can sum1 explain it?thx... )

ojou i think is more of a lady boss
i got it from Gokusen also

I knew some Japanese before I started watching dramas, but from dramas I learnt:
ikemen - hottie
tantei - detective
kyouto - head teacher (plus some other school related words)
yankee - ganster style
dachi - slang for friend
goukon - date party


i think variety shows are better for learning japanese. b/c in interviews they always ask the same questions 'whats your name, where are you from, when were you born, what's your type, etc' and those are the types of thing you want to be able to say.

Baka and nande??? were the first ones I learnt!!!! lol..

Then there is

ee-ay - no
Arrigato (gozaimas)/ Domo - Thanks
Ohiyo (gozaimas) - good early morning
Konichiwa - good morning/afternoon
Sayonara - Bye
Okaeri - Welcome home
Tadamai - I'm home
Watashiwa - I
Komennaisai - sorry
Kawaii - cute
ne? - right?
Demo - but..
Gambante - do ur best
itedakimas! - grace before eating
Ogenki deska?/Ikagades ka? - how r u ?
genki des, Oka-gay-sama-de - I'm fine, Thanks to you
moshi moshi - hello?
Sumimasen - Excuse me
Otto san - dad
Oba san - mom
Kumako - Shida's nickname in Seigi no Mikata which means bear

and a lot more.. which I don't remember right now.. I actually learnt some from a 'learn japanese' CD.. and the rest from doramas..

P.S - disregard the bad spelling of the words.. lol
