                        Welcome, kapatid (sibling)! It's good to see yet another Filipino "builder of historical military miniatures" (as someone in another thread put it)! And a member of IPMS too... i can tell we'll be hearing/seeing nothing but good things from you!

                        Yeah, well, the only other japanese sentence i know is "watashi ha enpitsu desu." Neither of them are very useful in actual conversation.

                        as for the tagalog lesson: Walang anuman! (you're welcome)

                        Yup, very useful Japanese! Heck, it's made me smile twice already! Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]
                        And thanks for another Tagalog lesson.
                        So how do you say "thank you?"

                        While we're at it:
                        Come in: Tuloy po kayo
                        My name is...: Ako po si....
                        Thank you / thank you very much: Salamat / Maraming Salamat
                        You're welcome: Walang anuman
                        take care: Ingat po kayo
                        Are you going down (as in an elevator): Bababa ba? (seriously!)
                        I am a pencil: Isa akong lapis
                        I cut my foot a while ago and now my shoe is filling up with blood: Nahiwa ko ang paa ko kanina at ngayon punong-puno na ng dugo ang sapatos ko.

                        Maraming Salamat for the lesson, Shrikes!
                        I have to admit my fave is "bababa ba?"!

                        J-hulk: I think those will be very useful. LOL. You'll never know when you'll bump into a Filipino working there in Japan. Lot's of them there you know.
