I see. So, is "tte" used correctly in the following sentences? 1. Ano toki utatta uta tte moo wasureta kedo.
2. Dewa, COCA tte abunai mayaku da soo desu. 3. Zaikin tte matsurigoto ni harawareru okane desu. 4. Aburamushi tte nan desu ka? 5. Kishiyanagi Hidezo-san tte nan da yo? 6. Ashita ichido koi tte iimashita. 7. Inotte kooshi katanai zo tte iu otoko, ima wa doko ita no? There may be some mistakes here, so if any show up please let me know. Much obliged in advance. - Arian I. --- In [email protected], Aaron Ackerson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Saturday, December 30, 2006, at 03:53 AM, ai3131 wrote: > > > Greetings.
