Beating Myself with Japanese

[friedtoast]

Spending my day translating work-related material into Japanese.

I am so proud of myself for knowing over half of those without having to look at the meanings. And the ones I didn't know, the vast majority I will have use ever for, god willing. XD

You've definitely been studying. Me? I just talk, so my written Japanese is lacking. So when it comes translation time, I gotta stumble through. Some of these I've known, but just don't ever write down, so I wanted to write 'em down again in order to jar my brain a bit.

And, unfortunately for me, my job does entail using words like this. It's all work-related :(

Until 9月 that is. Put in my notice on Saturday. I be headin' the Engrish teacher route as of Fall.

Ahh, thou art finally leaving the Facility of Doom?

[friedtoast]

Oui, monsieur.

However, there's a LOT of things the boss wants done. In fact, we, went out to dinner last night and he handed me off more material that needs to be Engrishified (new word? I dub thee MINE!).

So if you're interested, I might have need of ya. Poke your head in from time to time. Not sure how it'll pan out.

Negatory, chief. Just a big air pocket that got crammed w/ information. Didn't say any of it'd stick :P

Can't wait till I can start getting better at Japanese again!

Just gotta use it, chief! 毎日使わないとダメ！
