Yeah, being told from an early age that "you can't do that" or "it's impossible for you" kinda hits your self esteem in ways I didn't realise. haha Link to comment

The potential is there! It was very nice of him, even though he sounded more like a baby in that attempt, which is only natural when you know less than 10 words from a foreign language. Such a cute baby Russian from Yuzu Link to comment

KatjaThera Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 8 hours ago, Fay said: Ok, if in English you have one table and two, three, ten, hundred tables, in Russian you have to play a different game. A basic form of table is 'stol' (no articles in Russian) 1. So if you have one table, you have 'odin stol' - one table, then from 2 to 4 you have 'dva stola, tri stola, chetyre stola', from 5 to 10 you have 'pyat stolov, shest stolov, sem stolov' 2. From 11 to 20 you only have 'stolov' form. 3. Then come 21 tables - 'dvadtsat odin stol' (since it contains that word 'odin'), 22-24 tables (dva, tri, chetyre) - dvadtsat dva stola etc., 25-30 - dvadtsat pyat stolov. Then you put into a loop: 31 tables - 31 stol, 43 tables - 43 stola, 67 tables - 67 stolov etc. Right up to 111 4. Then 111-120 you get 'stolov' again 5. After which you enter the loop at point 3: 121 stol, 144 stola, 189 stolov Now this makes life difficult with the translation, because you've got to program the correct forms for replies, for instance if there are 1471 of them it's 'otvet', if there are 4362 of them, it's 'otveta', if there are 6787 or 5111, it's 'otvetov'. The numerals 1 and 2 also have gender forms... I wonder if I'm weird because it doesn't seem that hard to me It's weird, but it has its own logic... of course, if you pile more stuff on it... lol As for languages, Yuzu is probably naturally talented and prone to be very good at them, as others have said, due to musicality, but also, due to his very sensitive hearing - he can maybe pick up nuances more than the average person - and sheer ambition I think if someone actually showed him correct pronunciation - even in English - he'd be able to do it perfectly in no time. Grammar... you need time. I think he's already improved a lot, considering his main activities in Canada are training and a bit of university work (by comparison). Also, to learn languages well, you need really good teachers. And as far as I know, learning English well in Japan is pretty hard. Link to comment

yuzuthebest Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 RE: News about ICE RINK SENDAI There were news of the same details as translated before. ***************************************************************************** "J Channel Miyagi TV" : https://t.co/w0ltCql3V8 "Kahoku Shimpo"(Economic Page/Local Newspapers) : https://t.co/A3CYyoKtGa "Kahoku Shimpo-Online News" :https://t.co/xotVw6diCg **************************************************************************** For anyone who haven't had time to follow this Chat for a couple of days, please click below. Something interesting about the BEACH in the area of this Sports Complex which wasn't translated at that time as it had nothing to do with Figure Skating and it was too long and too late at night. It's an artificial 'white' beach where ones can enjoy having a barbecue as well as camping there. The word "Glamping" was used instead of "Camping". Yes, it's a new Japanese English (Wa-sei-Eigo) word. It stands for a "Glamorous Camping " . Link to comment

Dara Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 My guess is that this project is related to 24Hr TV. Plus that's the rink Yuzu trained short time after 3/11, because that's where Shoichiro Tsuzuki works after leaving Sendai. Link to comment
