どーも。
俺がいないと、みんなが寂しくなるでしょう？ごめんごめん。
今日のミニ・レッソンが短いです。なぜかというと、今日のレッソンは文章だけです。 文章だけですから、あまり難しくないと思います。
さて、下記の文章を見てみましょう！

1. What is になる? Use in an example sentence.2. What is につれ・につれて？What’s the written alternative for this?
3. How do you form something like 固くなる？
4. What is the difference between （物）もの and （事）こと？
5. What is the answer to this question?
See you Sunday then?
1. “become” is about as close as I can get in English. 日本語が上手になりたい！
2. It means two things are positively correlated as one goes up the other goes up. The older I get, the dumber I get. I don’t know any alternatives.
3. Use the adverbial form of an adjective. For い adjectives, drop the い and add く. For な adjectives, slap a に after the stem instead of な.
4. 物 is for physical objects, 事 is for ideas and such. More or less anyway.
5. I’m not sure I can answer the question. It seems to be asking “What gets harder as it turns into H?” It’s either a typo or over my head. Does the H stand for hydrogen? Is it some play on a kanji that looks similar to H? (廿、日、工) You also might consider rewording question 5; is sounds a little more philosophical than you may have intended.“What gets harder as it turns into H?”
H as in エッチ？ 変態? What gets stiffer as things get more ecchi? I’m not sure I WANT to answer that question. =P I’m thinking this might be some sort of innuendo-laden joke, though.
You also might consider rewording question 5; is sounds a little more philosophical than you may have intended.
Hah, I thought it was something philosophical as well. I’m gonna answer that question instead:
Forty-two.
Haha, okay. Thanks for the explanation Joel.
1. になる = to become. 私は病気になった。
2. につれ = something happening (gradually) as a result of something else. に連れ。
3. It’s adverb (adjective + verb). な adjectives use に before verb (drop な); い adjectives change い to く. <- Koichi, be proud! XD
4. 物 is used for real things, 事 for concepts.
5. I don't understand ものってなんだ part at all, so I can't figure out the question :S But it's something pervy, right? I apologize if it's not, I was going by the "Ｈ" part, and dictionary has only one entry for it (エッチ).Don’t think philosophically, think perverted.
No, the philosophical question was “What’s the answer to this question?” Not that question, but this question. =)
Good work guys.
Unfortunately, you all got #5 wrong
The answer to the question lies here → http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsxfDVx_8VA
Aha. えんぴつです. Like I said, innuendo. =P
I don’t get it. I don’t get the joke. *cry*
Also, I still don’t understand ものって… How do you attach って to もの?
H is a rating of pencil hardness. The higher the H, the harder it is. The opposite is B (for “black”). 2B or not 2B, that is the question…
As for って, I understand it’s a quotation marker. As in, something like [ "As H becomes greater, the thing becomes harder" - what is it? ]
I see now XD Thanks Joel!

@Chado: Why? Just why… ¬.¬
Instead of making pointless posts, you should spend the time learning your kana. Come on, chop chop!
