Japanese - Ask questions thread

Basically if you have a question about the language, ask it and fellow 4channers might see it and answer it for you.

To start it off. When an animate object (iru) dies, is it considered inanimate(aru)?

what's this?
今度こそ
I know that they're "ima" and "do",
but don't know the meaning of the phrase

and this
あつ毎度ありがとうございます
or this:
あっ毎度ありがとうございます
what's the exact meaning of毎度 ?

thanks
