地獄

I teach English to a young girl (she's German) and I can't explain the difference between by and until.

Does anyone know a rule?

Like for/since - for is used when talking about a period in time, and since is used when talking about a point in time.

Thanx in advance ;)

I hope nobody is offended, and just to explain: I've just watched 'The Wave' (1981 I think) and I was just thinking about dictatorship, etc, etc.

Anyway: I'm not trying to glorify (or advertise) Hitler or nazi's or anything, I was just interested and loved this music...

Vielen dank im Voraus :)

Leider habe ich diese Möglichkeit in meiner jetziger Stelle nicht und es ist einer der Gründe für meiner Interesse an dieser Stelle.

Vielen Dank im Voraus :)

Die deutsche Grammatik ist ein Alptraum für mich :'(

Ich arbeite stets sorgfältig und verstehe mich sehr gut mit meinen Kollegen.

Das war's!! Vielen Dank!

(Bin nicht muttersprachler...aber möchte mich für eine Stelle hier bewerben ;))

Ok, I'm not the brightest but according to bbc's group tables england and america have the exact same points and there's no goal difference. How come america are group c winner and england runner-up? I was expecting a coin toss or something since there is no difference....

I think I remember there being a rule about when to use which - If you start Dear Sir/Madam then you end with yours sincerely. If you start Dear Mr.X (or Mrs. X) then it ends with yours faithfully.

Is that right or is it the other way around or did I just totally imagine that rule?

Please help!!

In englisch, wenn man die Person nicht kennt, kann man

"Dear Sir/Madam" or "To whom it may concern" schreiben.

Wie schreibt man sowas auf deutsch?

Danke :)

Where did I hear that?

And does it really make any sense?

Ich weiss man kann die 80er und die 90er sagen, aber wie geht das mit den jahren 2000 - 2009?

00er?

Ist ok wenn ihr nicht wisst wie man das sagt, ich möchte nur wissen ob man es so schreiben kann.

Entschuldigung für mein schlechtes deutsch. Ich bin Engländerin ;)

I am trying to say, "why haven't the japanese reacted (or protested) sooner?"

なぜ、日本人はもうすぐ反対しませんか。

I'm sure it isn't quite right, please correct it if you can.

Thanks xx

I'm trying to say, "People are becoming more interested in preserving the purity of their language."

A load of rubbish I know, but I just have to be able to say it in japanese...so this is what I've got-

人々は言語の純度の維持にもっと興味を起こさせたなっています。

Thanks again :D x

This time I'm trying to say, "France have had laws regarding the use of foreign words since 1911."

１９１１年からフランスが外国単語の使用について法律があります。

Sorry, Belie, I know I'm taking advantage... :)

Ok, I'm trying to say, "japan doesn't seem to fight the invasion of the english language as other countries do."

日本がほかの国のように英語から借用語に対して抵抗しないみたいです。

Again, I'm sure this is all completely wrong, so please help if you can!

thanks x

I'm trying to say, "why isn't there a reaction against english loanwords in japanese, as there is in countries such as france or germany?"

なぜ、フランスとドイツのように、日本語に使って英語から借用語に対して抵抗がありませんか。

I know my version is horribly wrong, please help if you can...

Thanks x

"Council on japanese language" which was created in 2002 to oversee the admission of foreign words into the japanese language. This has nothing to do with teaching japanese as a foreign language. It is just a council set up in Japan which oversees which foreign words are admitted into the japanese language. Thankyou :)
