Hi Allen,

Domo arigato!!

My wife is from Osaka, Japan, and I do speak a little Japanese (about enough so that I know what's going on around me when she and my in-laws are talking).

On the sentence above, I came up with what I thought was the translation, my wife corrected it, then I posted it and my explanation.

I studied Japanese for 2 1/2 years in college, but that's been around 10 years ago and I don't have occaision to use it in my everyday life, so it is a bit rusty. Just recently I dug out my old textbooks and have been photoreading them so that my wife and I can start teaching my 10 month old son Japanese.

Have Fun!
Mike
