One of my students wrote a paper using examples in Japanese, with English glosses. The problem is that I want to give him feedback, but I don't understand Japanese script! Please help me by translating the following phrases/sentences into Japanese and writing them in romanji.
older brother (one word)
younger brother (one word)
older sister (one word)
younger sister (one word)
It is not impossible for me to think that he did not come to school yesterday. (Please translate literally, with two negative phrases.)
I am going to give sweets to children who will wake up early tomorrow.

Okay, this is going to be a 3-part question but if you follow it you'll see where it's heading. I'll ask the 2nd part tomorrow and the 3rd on Saturday.

The only thing you know about me is that I am a Pagan.....

Upon meeting me face to face would you, according to your beliefs and religion, really tell me that I'm going to 'you know where' and the reason why I am headed in that general direction?

Go ahead and speak your mind, I do not get offended very easily.

Blessed be!

I dont care if he was really married to mary magdelene, but wouldnt it be nice if jesus was a family man and we could see through his relationship with his kids and wife? Dont get me wrong. Hes is very divine without the marriage life. But wouldnt it be nice to see jesus as a humanbeing for once? To finally see him as a simple man trying to spread God's word? Just imagine how great that would be.

Truth (n.) (pl.) (trthz, trths) -
1. A statement proven to be or accepted as true.
2. Sincerity; integrity.
3. The opposite of falsehood.

"What is truth?" Pontius Pilate once asked Jesus. Do we even know the truth when we actually hear it? Do we even recognize the truth when we actually see it. Do we even believe the truth when we are confronted by it? Those who know the truth about God, stand by the truth about God.

"You are a king, then!" said Pilate. Jesus answered, "You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me." - John 18:37

"Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me!, Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don't you believe me?" - John 8:45-46

"He sighed and said, "Why does this generation ask for a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given" - Mark 8:12

Why can't I just people to accecpt me for who I am? Not that I really care what they think but still...I can't even get other Goths to like me. I would prefer to hear from actucal Goths, which have been for about 2 years now, it's not like I'm a ******* new Goth who just crossed over from like Prep or Jock just to act cool...that pisses me off when people do that. There was one quote said by Rosane that I like "I'm really good at judging people, that's why they all suck."

I’m sorry if I offended some of you with the dinosaur question; it was not intended for people of faith that actually have common sense. But the rest of you; come on lets get real! If scientists are so wrong, then why do so many science inventions work? You can believe any thing that you want, but I’m sorry to say that belief is not always fact. Here is a fact, you sitting their answering question on your computer that happens to be the product of science.

Why do or say something that intentionally hurts another human being? Just because you are online and faceless, doesn't make the pain any less. It doesn't make it any less cruel. So, why?

I just had sex in 80 degree weather, and I'm 80 years old.
I just fell asleep, but now I see Jesus at the end of a tunnel (naked, except for a fedora) yelling for me to follow him.
I'm typing this in my sleep, all other questions were typed during sex (my husbands kind of slow).

What should I do?

1 john 2;18-19 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrist; whereby we know that it is the last time .
They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt they would have continued with us: but they went out, that they manifest that they were not all of us.

I was wondering about all religions, except atheist (that is a religion), concept about conducting your life on earth. Is it part of your everyday life and practice or is it something you do one particular week, month, year. If it is part of your daily life tell us why? Most of us take religion as a 'service' for us or to make us 'feel good.' I think it is more than that. It should better us as individuals and bring the best in us for the betterment of next life, and ultimately to please God. This is time to share your religion without the insults. If you have quotes from the religous books please give them.

I am going into a career in international relations (specifically, a diplomat) and plan to travel internationally throughout my life. I am already studying Spanish and French (English is my native tongue)but would like to learn at least one more language, preferably one a little more "exotic" than a standard European one. (Though I think I'll learn Italian some day...)

Anywhom, I was thinking either something Middle Eastern, like Farsi/Persian or Arabic. Otherwise, someone suggested Korean...

Any input on the various difficulties of some of the languages listed above? What about how applicable each is in relation to the others? I want something that'll prove useful. As I said, I plan on traveling all over the world, not centralizing in one certain area that might otherwise help me make this decision.

Thanks for any suggestions! I really appreciate it!

atheists don't believe in god. Why do they find it so horrible and unbelievable? I for one can't understand how can CAN believe in god but I respect your choice. You believe and I don't. Anyways, I don't care if you want to choose to believe in god but why can't I be left alone about my choice? Remember all people all you can is speak for youreself. No christian can speak for all christains, just like no atheist can speak for all athiests. And remeber I say most, I do not say all.

George W. Bush or Jesus?
But here's the catch, it's not the normal Jesus, it's Jesus with no arms, legs, or capabilites of speech.
