Yes, the East Rand Mall isn't what it used to be anymore. But it's nice to get out of Secunda for a change. Our mall here seriously sucks.

People complaining about not enough dams during water shortages and now they complain when they're given more.

Government just can't win.

@IkariX That hole is filled with water, might as well call it a lake now.

I used to go to the mall every weekend back in the day.
But all the good shops have closed.

Yes, that hole sucks, and it sucks having to take the side road now. Because even that is starting to look like crap.

Me and my sister go to the East Rand Mall and flea market regularly. We have a mall where I live, but it's[censored].

We also have a giant hole here in Boksburg.
Sinkhole took out a whole road, been 3 years, still not fixed.
Think they should also make it an attraction now.

I have been a bit inactive, but I will now flood this thread with new words to compensate for my negligence.

Japanese Word Collection for 3 - 6 January

1)思う (To think, To consider, to believe (As in "I believe this to be true" for example)
2)思い (Thought)
3)思い出 (Memory eg. a good memory from my time in Australia)
4)思わず (Adverb- unintentionally)
5)思い出す (To remember, or recall) *note this phrase makes use of the verb ”出す" which in the case is used as an auxiliary verb. I will make a entry in the Japanese Grammar thread
6) 奥さん (Wife; your wife; his wife; married lady)

I would also like to thank everyone who has taken the time to view this thread. Even if you do not learn Japanese, I hope this has benefited you in someway. For those studying it, I hope you reach fluency or better yet proficiency at the language someday. Have a fantastic year everybody.

 I am really busy with studying now, so I won't be that active. I will not be posting word lists every day or even every week sometimes. Today I will list three JP resources I use to study from.

1)NHK Easy news (Reading practice)
2)NHK news podcasts on JP iTunes
3)http://gogen-allguide.com/

The third resource is all in Japanese, but a simple rikaikun extension can help you make sense of it if you have some knoledge of grammar. The website is an etymology site meaning you can look up the origin and history of words (Japanese ones) for example. Some words have an unknown origin, so just remember that when you don't find anything. Here is the page for ありがとう (Arigatou=Thank you) http://gogen-allguide.com/a/arigatou.html to show an example

General set-phrase of the day

Example

チンチンは子供に人気がある

Google translate that for fun.
