I didnt go to bed
So instead of going to bed LIKE I SHOULD HAVE. I've been sitting here listening to my japanese cd thing. And this part has always bothered me. Ive listened to this whole thing 4 or 5 times now... and I could never figure this one part out. I even wrote a note in my notebook that says I have no idea what shes talking about because I cant find anything on google. (at the time I didnt have this English to Japanese/ Japanese to English dictionary.)
So, I tried the dictionary and still nothing. So, I sat here for five minutes or so just playing the pronouciation of it over and over. and I realized shes either saying it wrong. OR its one of those things where you eat the sounds.
Shes saying it "taskarimashita" I wrote it down as Tasarimashita in my notes but thats so wrong. She says it means "youve helped me, thank you."
I just realized its probably a SU sound thats being eaten by the ka... like how in sUki they sometimes eat the U and say ski. Figuring that out I found tasukeru in the dictionary... it says it means help; support. So I'm going to assume that this is correct... or better than what i had before, which was a whole lot of nothing.
I'm so confused though. Why is it being pronounced tasKARImashita when here: http://www.japaneseverbconjugator.com/VerbDetails.asp?JapaneseVerb=tasukeru%20&VerbClass=2&EnglishVerb=help it says its written in romaji as tasukemashita ... is the site wrong? or is it just pronounced differently from the way its written? Is there a rule that you add a RI sound when ke comes before mashita?
I dont get it. ><
/siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh. now Im really going to bed. Maybe Gakkun will tell me the answer in a dream LMFAO
