*not replying...* and on with class! atashi no namae wa Mahotou! (my name is Mahotou) America jin desu yo. (I'm from america) Jyuusan(13) sai desu. (I am 13) watashi no okaachan wa nipon desu to watashi no otousa wa america jin desu yo. (my mom is from japan and my dad is from america.) Yoroshiku anata tachi! (nice to meet you all) (don't mind me, Be right back) ore no namae wa arvind jyuugo sai desu okay...nows where it gets interesting ...fyi, ill be the question student... "America jin desu yo. (I'm from america) Jyuusan(13) sai desu. (I am 13)" why in the first one do you have yo but in the second you dont, it seems desu is the verb "to be" and jin seems to be from also, you said: "atashi no namae wa Mahotou! (my name is Mahotou)" i thought in nihongo, the last word is always the verb, but here you have your name as the last word...

In Japanese it's VERY confusing you could say watashi wa mahotou or watashi no namae wa Mahotou. but i donno about the verb thing and so you're a boy? you said 'ore' meaning you're a boy B/C only boy's would say ore ----- and as a correction you said ore wa no to say 'my' you don't need 'wa' 'wa' is like the word 'is' 'ore no' means 'My' and off to food!!!(i'll be right back!!)

To say 'i don't know' or 'I don't understand'
wakaranai or wakarimasen ____ the oppisite of wakaranai-- is -- wakarimasu.
notice that the 'nai' at the end of wakara- mean not or no (and stuff like that) and the same with '-sen' but all i've seen of this is when it was put at the end of a word
