野ブタをプロデュス?

[prof_jung]

I know that drama, but many friends think drama better than novel.

No buta means field (no) buta (pig), in Korea, this name straight translation....
...Produce field pig(?) wow, it's so weird.

I don't know this drama's English subtitle. (haha)

p.s
be careful about ending.................... ToT)/

I'm halfway through the drama, and I like it a lot.

Ha ha ha. Field pig. It's more of a---producing, like in a movie. But, Field pig is 100 times better : D

The book is difficult because of so many Kanji : X It makes me glad that I have lots of time, and a dictionary to read it.

I think it's the same case that I usually using English - English dictionary to study,
it's harder than English-Korean dictionary, but I like it.
(Collins Cobuild!!!)

Sometimes I shock about English idioms.

"My farther kicked kick the bucket, so I'm sad"

....kick the bucket? Why he sad 'ㅁ')?????? Is there delicious food in the bucket?

Yeah, it sounds silly ㅠㅁㅠ~

It's frustrating because the dictionaries that you can use to study (Japanese-English, Korean-English) never seem to have the words that you want. Pah. I have already found a bunch of words in Nobuta that my dictionaries don't have. So I need to go the library.

Kick the bucket is an ooooolllllddddd idiom for "has died." It's from old television shows (like I Love Lucy), and it was supposed to almost be a funny thing. A child would usually be the one to say it.

Wow, I didn't know that, thanks.

Oh, I heard about "No way!".
Originally it comes from John wayne, and many actor and actress makeing new idioms now.

Maybe it's their "bread and butter" (job?) to make new a word in fashion.
