| | Miki | In note contributed by jeina419, kanojou should be kanojo かのじょ 彼女 | | | Miki | Is this JLPT level 3? I guess this is level 4. | | | walter | I thought that kanojou should be kanojyo in "normal" romanji? | | | walter | ex 6194: Wouldn't the use of お父さん mean that わたしの is redundant? | | | KWhazit | In response to walter's questions:
-There are several ways of Romanizing Japanese. Depending on the system you use, かのじょ could be either 'kanojo' or 'kanojyo'. Miki's point is that it's not 'kanojou' because there's no う on the end.
-As for the second question...
...first off, you can use お父さん to talk about other people's fathers:
みちこのお父さんは親切です。 - Michiko's father is kind.
...and secondly, if you're being formal (which the example seems to be), you'd normally us 父 (ちち) to refer to your own father. But that's not stopping anyone in more casual speech, though I think there's a tendency to drop the お in that case:
父さんに部屋を掃除させられちゃった…
I got forced to clean my room by my dad... | | | tigert | I think this is more vocabulary than Grammar and its definatly level 4 | | |
