    missing: No, sorry. My nickname is Mo and I just happen to like Pink. So, there ya go. :)

    Noah: I asked my Japanese teacher about the “because” issue today and she made it sound like you would use “nazenara” if you wanted to put the effect first. I’m laughing “nazenara” something made me laugh. She said it’s not very common but acceptable.

    Sorry for the roumaji, people. My cruddy little netbook doesn’t have an IME installed.

    Noah, I’ve been wondering the same thing. So far I haven’t seen a way to use “because” in Japanese while stating the effect before the cause. I’m sure there must be one, but…

    Question of my century, even my Japanese teacher doesn’t have an answer for me. But she’s lived in the States for a while so I’m hoping there’s some new slang to deal with this. Basically, I need a word that has the same meaning as “turn-on” in English. Specifically, the thing you notice about another person that gets you interested. Dark eyes, big boobs, good sense of humor, whatever. フェチ feels a little too hardcore and I’m hoping to avoid any use of 萌え. I need a noun, or maybe some sort of verb+もの form.

    Anyone? Bueller?

    Thanks.
