Anyone need help from a native English speaker?
- 1 ：2017/07/14 〜 最終レス ：2018/06/16
- I'm a native speaker of Midwestern American English, and if anyone has questions
about English and English speaking nations I'd be happy to help as best I can.
English isn't terribly hard, but vernacular English is tricky, so hopefully this
will do some good.

- I appreciate your offer helping our studing English!
【Question about suffix】Diffeence between -ship and -hood
We say “seamanship”, “friendship”, “partnership” , we do not say
“neighbourship’ but say “neighbourhood”.
Woulld you explain us definition of two suffixes -ship and -hood?
- 3 ：
- >>1
Are you a Trump suppoter?
- 4 ：
- >>2
Great question! The short story is the difference comes from the
history of those words; -hood is from old English, -ship comes from
middle english. The words also come from different places; for example
both -ship and -hood have roots in German, but -hood is more closely related to modern
German.
They also imply slightly different things- -hood usually implies a single location being
important; if you move to a different town, your neighbours aren't your neighbours anymore,
but your friendship might stay the same.

No. I don't have a visceral hatred of him like other people, but I find him odd an trustworthy,
and I don't understand him. You wouldn't put someone you don't understand in charge of your nation.

- There are many words concern sea in English. England is the sea country.
we also have that kind of words because japan is surrounded sea all.
for examples "雑魚(zako)", this means small fish. but usually we use for
something wimp, loser , noob. such as >5,>6,>7>8.

- When words or sentences written in English (or alphabet characters) come into my sight,
if I'm not ready, they look as if they are just patterns, not language.
I can't recognize English words graphically which I can when I see Japanese (or Chinese) characters.
When I read English I have to pronounce each words in my head from left to right
which I don't need to do when I read Japanese.
I wonder people whose mother toung is not Japanese but who are fluent in spoken Japanese
can read Japanese sentences as Japanese peaple do.

Not really!
What great timing! ! I use it.

you shrimp and small fry!!

not graphically way.

In case your name is GGG, "名前欄 GGG#12345". "#12345" is a password.
so 2ch function change it's pass ward to ◆BvcplLXSGo and add after name,
then become something like GGG◆BvcplLXSGo. this is unique from other.
Of course password must be secret you only know.

Welcome aborad! We appreciate your kind offer of help. All my life I've been
struggling to find the answers to my millards of questions that never cease to
get born in my mind. I had no help from anybody, neither from my English
teachers at high school nor in college nor at home nor from anybody else.
So I've gotten used to finding the solutions to my questions all by myself
without help. After the advent of the Internet, especially in the past
couple of years, I've come to ask for some help from native English speaker
volunteers in questions-and-answers forums like wordreference.com.
Still I could always use extra help here on 2-channel as well. If any question
comes to my mind, I think I'll ask it of you. Thanks again for your offer.
By the way, what exactly are you most interested in? Science? Information
technology? Manga? Sports? Literature? Music? I'm asking you this question
because your answer may somewhat determine what kinds of questions
potential askers may want to ask you.
- 29 ：
- Hi 1, did you know a tripcode, didn't you.
I didn't know. I'm first time about it.
by the way which state do you live Midwest. I guss it , Michigan right?

Well, sure. Why not-
I have a background in literature and film, but lately I've been trying to
learn more about all things mechanical- engines, cars, trains, planes, watches ext. Right now
I'm in the middle of learning the parts of the small block chevy engine- a good place
to start, as it's basically found all over America.
I work at a local county reserve, as a conservation worker.
>>29
Close- I used to live there.
- 32 ：
- >>31
Thanks for your answer. So you're basically interested in film and literature.
That's great. Those are areas that excite me as well.
By the way, do you have a YouTube account by any chance? If so,
would you be interested to tell us the URL of your YouTube channel?
If you prefer not, I'll understand.
- 33 ：
- >>32
I don't. I've been thinking of making one though-
I just don't have the money for the recording equipment yet!
here's one I like though, and a video I like from him:

Close ? then Ohio or Indiana or Wisconsin
it may be Ohio or Indiana ,because there are big nature park
and your are working at that kind place.
My intuition tells Ohio.
Ohio is your place living in.
that's it !!!

- Hello 1, I have a question about "name ... after ..." when used
for someone, as in
I named my baby after my grandfather.
As far as I know only Macmillan dictionary says "especially the same
first name as a member of your family" in its entry's explanation,
while others don't.
http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/american/name-after
Looking up the web, there are cases in which "name after" is used and
the name given seems not related to their family at all.
I'm wondering whether or not the usage generally sound strange.
What do you think?
Thanks.

- I used to be a real estate agent and one day I showed one of my US customers one flat located on 13th floor of huge building in Tokyo.
He said that he likes its layout, condition, and rent, but he doesn't want to stay there only because of the floor number.
He continued telling me that he was first time seeing a room which is on 13th floor as there is no story between 12th and 14th floor in any buildings in his country.
I know the number of 13 is considered to unlucky number for somone in specific religion, but is it true that 13th floor doesn't exist in any tall buildings in whole western contries(Europe and North America)? (sorry for my awkward english)
- 45 ：
- >>43
Using "named after" is extremely common. So common, in fact, I myself am named after three people: A German artist,
A German scientist, and my Great-Grandfather and whenever people question me about it I always use "named after" in
my response.
The reason someone might not seem to be named after a person they're related to is because of two reasons:
1. They might not actually be named after someone they're related to, just someone who their parents admired. I have no direct
relation to either the Scientist or the artist.
2. The name they take as a reference might be their middlename, which is rarely written in signature. It's mostly
used in legal documents. You just wouldn't see it.
>>44
Your English is fine!
The superstitious fear of the unlucky 13 does exist in America, there's a wikipedia article on it here:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/13_(number)#Unlucky_13
however the people who believe in it are so few in number I have never met one in my life and don't believe I ever will. I have also never seen the 13th
floor/item/lane etcetera be skipped due to this belief.
In fact, that belief is so outlandish in most of America I can't help but wonder if the man was either a recent immigrant who may not have even possessed full
citizenship, or just claimed to represent America.
If you were to ever find a place that would skip the 13th floor, I would imagine it would most likely be in California, which has a lot of "new-age" hippie types
- 46 ：
- >>4
excuse me, I meant to say "odd and UNtrustworthy"
- 47 ：
- >>45
Thank you very much! What you mentioned is intriguing! I remmenber the guy is bit curious and loves his home country so much, so he just wanted to represent America I guess.
When it comes to the unlucky number, 4 is considered to unlucky only in Japan. We call 4 'yon' or 'shi', and this 'shi' has another meaning which is death. Sometimes I see buildings that skip room no.4 (ex' #101,102,103,105)
- 48 ：
- >>47
That's very interesting. Superstition is so odd and diverse from nation to nation, place to place
you could probably dedicate a phd to it.
One of the most common American superstitions is the belief in "healing stones."- special rocks
that are told to give "positive energy" to whoever possesses or is near them. I know no one that believes
in this superstition, but I have seen stores that sell such minerals.
- 49 ：
- Thank you for your great reply. I understand.
Your reason 2 is what I've never thought of.
Almost(all?) dictionary examples employ "grandfather" or other
relatives. I guess the reason might be those examples would be easy for
learners to understand.
As for Macmillan, a matter of frequency of occurrence, I think.
I learned a lot. Thanks!
- 50 ：
- I wrote about Macmillan above.
I read again and I've come to think I may be wrong about mentioning
frequency. The reason might still be ease of learning "name after".
- 51 ：
- >>49
>>50
I don't understand what you're saying about "Macmillan". Can you explain?
- 52 ：
- Macmillan dictionary says, "especially the same first name as a member of your family". in the entry.
Your explanation and the fact that other dictionaries don't write such a thing. I think the Macmillan's
definition is not very accurate. I guess they writes so because they might think it is better
for learners to understand the "name for" usage. What do you think about it?
- 53 ：
- >>51
I'm sorry I made an inadequate explanation at >>52.
What I wanted to write about Macmillan >>49, 50, 52 are below.
Your explanation and the fact that other dictionaries don't write
such a thing as Macmillan does(",especially...)
make me think Macmillan's definition is not accurate or misleading.
I thought the reason why Macmillan write that("especially...").
Then I guessed they might think it is better for learners to understand
the "name for" usage.
At first (>>49) I thought they write that in terms of how frequent "name after"
is used for names from relatives. But now I don't think it is likely.
- 54 ：
- >>52
OOOHHHH THE DICTIONARY.
Okay lol I get it.
I think they've tried to give an example but forgotten what it would mean
to a reader. You could actually contact them about it.
- 55 ：
- >>54
Hazzard, thanks for your comment. I agree.
I will contact them.
- 56 ：
- Tell me some famous American 2ch-like web sites such as 4chan, Reddit, etc.

I don't really like a lot of them, and very few are used,
but 4chan, 7chan, 8chan are the most used ones.

- I got a question about accents of different parts of English speaking countries.
Any accents that you have trouble understanding as American?
Not sure if this is because I'm most familiar with American English from watching American shows,
but I get the impression that accents in the us are not as varied as ones in the U.K..
I know southern accent too. could it be just because of the fact that I can barely understand British English?
I am finally starting to catch Scottish English and
am wondering if it's just a matter of time that I understand it without frustration.
Im asking this on the assumption you know of some accents. If not, never mind
- 77 ：
- bump
- 78 ：
- >>76
American accents are much more complicated than ones from the UK, mostly because of how big the US is and how many different people live in it.
The media probably doesn't pick up on that so much because well, you need to, you know, *understand* the English, lol.
Chinatown and koreatown English are very difficult for me, as well as Vietnamese English.
Sailor's English is very difficult for many people. Others have trouble with "deep southern" or some forms of it.
I think this will better come across in video. Here are a few examples:
Appalachian and mountain English:

People make fun of this constantly. Comes from Irish and New York.
That is, New York the people, not the place. Very close to New York (the place this time) and "old City English"
I'll post some more later

Actually, diversity in English accents is far greater in the United Kingdom.
In the UK, it is possible to guess the accent of someone from 10 miles away while it takes a far greater distance to do that in America.
Moreover, even within America, diversity in dialects decreases the further west you go.
An example of linguistic diversity in the UK:

And America:

>America, diversity in dialects decreases the further west you go.
That is a stupid thing to say and I am now going to spend the next few days working to prove it
- 84 ：
- >>82
>>83
Actually I'm getting ahead of myself
You wanna know the reason why things seem to get really boring in the west until you reach California? (which is severely misrepresented though)
Because *nobody* lives there. Seriously. Most of those states are out populated by cities.
And it makes sense that a small country would have every aspect of distance shrunk. It's why some of the small, old American states seem so eclectic.
But uh, yeah keep in mind that the "decrease in diversity" toward the middle-west is true, but for kindof unfair reasons. Those states are often completely empty for hundreds of mile.
I'm still confused why they completely forgot about cali accents, especially surfer and hispanic ones, balling up one of the most populated states with some of the least and declaring them to be similar enough to be unimportant. Odd to me.

I am completing my education; such a depopulated state doesn't have the academic community I need. That state is mostly empty, with a few farmers, if that.
I may move there someday if I ever want a place detached from complicated life; it might be a nice place to retire.

Are you an American?
If so, it was such a terrible thing that has happened in Las vegas.
Were you OK?
- 91 ：
- >>90
Yep, I'm fine. Its disgusting and slightly terrifying, but I guess I should be grateful that it wasn't worse. There were 22000 people packed into a stadium not much bigger than a large gym. If it had been a bombing attack it could have killed hundreds
- 92 ：
- >>91
I'm glad you're safe.
but it was a tragic incident,
Even the Japanese media that has been hardly covered overseas news,
did the case extensively.
I hope that the bereaved can recover from the heartbreak as soon as possible.
