One more thing.
Watashi wa shukudai ga takusan arimasu kara, terebi o mimasen.
Is it correct to use “takusan” like this?
September 15th, 2009 at 10:52 am
Amari suki ja arimasen is the correct one. In English, it will be translated as “I don’t quite like it”
Takusan is correct. It means “many”

Yamada likes dancing. He goes to dancing school every night. The dancing teacher is pretty. Yamada is not good in dancing but he is happy to learn from the pretty teacher. He give her concert ticket on her birthday. She goes to the concert with her friends. Yamada is dissappointed.
