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)?

I  told you faggot that I needed context. I also considered 途中 meant part way in the middle of sex but I couldn't make a good sentence out of it. I'm not saying rikai-chan is perfect, it's just faster than a dictionary so you don't waste time, plus it shows you combined words you wouldn't think are combined. Regardless, with rikai-chan, I've still picked up 300 kanji, and probably 1000 words within a month, so that's good progress anyway you look at it.
