But many "normal" dictionaries don't have the kind of slang so they can't always look it up. And my older students don't use computers so they wouldn't look there so yeah....they ask me! And you are right....Japanese feel free to ask us anything! I have been shocked by things I have been asked at bars etc-things they would never ask other Japanese! It makes life interesting!!FromJapanWithLovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02501843582871473733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859120836007416823.post-56612037764593185412010-06-14T17:19:47.822-07:002010-06-14T17:19:47.822-07:00Oh, it's not a laughing matter for a native En...Oh, it's not a laughing matter for a native English teacher. <br />I believe most students are just curious and innocent and feel free to ask teachers "anything" since a native English teacher is a walking dictionary for them.<br />Adults women of 60s and kids boys are really as they are. <br />That boy is beyond help! He should know his future girlfriend will never feel happy about this. <br />By the way I look up it in any dictionaries, when I'm dying to know "some words", from a paper dictionary to e-dictionary whatever until I said "Ah ha".Mekkanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07068317807601003956noreply@blogger.com
