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)?

That being able to be looked up is just lucky, that slang is still everywhere and most of the time won't be able to be looked up. Dictionaries take too fucking much time to even use. I just use rikai-chan, and I smoke through pages and pages of Japanese in no time at all, picking up all kinds of kanji and vocab. Think of it like a test, if you find a problem that you don't know, don't waste all your time on it, just move on.
