Kaito: at the moment, one dollar is equal to about 107 yen.
Greea: "no" is less formal.

Okay, and now my question is on the usage of 'amari'.
The thing I read said it was 'not very much' only if it was used as an adverb.
Can anyone explain the difference? sweatdrop
(Verb) amari ni would mean not very?

"Amari" and "amari ni" basically are two separate words. You have it a little backwards though.
As an adverb, for example... "Amari ni aishiteiru" (lol the drama) would mean to love someone a lot, with a connotation of "too much". Example:
彼は彼女をあまりに愛していて、銀行口座のお金をぜんぶ彼女に渡してしまった。
Kare wa kanojo wo amari ni aishiteite, ginkou kouza no okane wo zenbu kanojo ni watashiteshimatta.
He loved her so much [i.e. too much], he handed over all the money in his bank account to her. talk2hand
If you use it in front of a verb you get this kind of meaning, lol.
On the other hand, you have 'amari' that you use in front of a negative-form adjective (ONLY negative-form), which does mean 'not very' or 'not particularly'. Examples:
あまり高くない Amari takakunai -- not very expensive
あまり静かじゃない Amari shizuka ja nai -- not very quiet
あまり好きじゃない Amari suki ja nai -- I don't like it very much (yes, this is an adjective in Japanese!!)

Ah, thanks so much!
That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure if the 'ni' did something or... whatever, I've mostly only seen it alone or with 'mo'... Obviously, I haven't seen/heard it used much. xP Still getting used to sentence placement and such.
But that definitely clears it up on all times I've seen it used ^^

I have a question in regards to time duration which has been bugging me for awhile. How would I say something occurs for, say 15 minutes. Would it be 十五分 or 十五分間?
