I think the "na" ending is more formal than just "i", but I'm not too sure, nihongo nuubu desu.

I thought it was just two different classes of adjective? I may be wrong... I don't know much Japanese...

Uh.. there's two different types of adjectives. I and NA adjectives.. an adjective can only be one type. So when you look up an adjective in a dictionary it will tell you which one it is, and when you use that adjective before a noun like in your examples, you put the i or na after the adjective.

Maybe he's writing from u"nterdevice, without proper input methods? (just like my PC on work and phone)

Where is our traditional "日本語 Ask a question thread"?
