So, have you been studying like good girls and boys?

You had better!

Now, you CAN look in the forums to help you find the answers.

SAMPLE
What does イヌ mean?
Answer: Dog.

I will know if you use Google translate, you cheater.
Why? I'm not telling. I have my ways. Let's just say Google translate isn't always as accurate as it seems...

Directions: For questions 1-5, write these things in Katakana or english.

1.Write your name in Katakana, then tell me what your name is.

2. タクシ Tell me what this means in english. To find out what it means, you can use Google. But I prefer you find out the pronunciation, first.

3. ネコ What does this mean in english? *same as above.

4. マリオ Tell me what famous Japanese video game character this is.

5. ワタシ What does this mean? What is the Japanese pronunciation?

私の名前はヴォクスです。 My name is Vox.

2. タクシ Tell me what this means in english.
Taxi

3. ネコ What does this mean in english? *same as above.

Doesn't mean anything. ねこ in english is "cat" but since it's a word native to Japanese, you write it using hiragana.

4. マリオ Tell me what famous Japanese video game character this is.

Mario!

5. ワタシ What does this mean? What is the Japanese pronunciation?

Same as #3, since the word for "I" is native to Japanese, you would write it as わたし or 私 which are pronounced "watashi"
