Help with my mediocre Japanese skills

Anyone know how to say "school begins" in Japanese?

"Baka-ja nai, shiro."

But seriously; no.

gaku nomimasu I believe. Depends on how literal the translation.

If my memory serves me correctly, Japanese teachers begin class by taking a bite out of a bell pepper and shouting, "ALLEZ CUISINE!"

"Gakko hajimaru" is another way to say it, I believe. ^^

Exactly WHAT do you plan on drinking?

And Razi: What ever do you mean by "isn't white stupid."

Yanagi San is right.

Gakko Hajimaru - School will begin
Gakko Ga Hajimatta - School has begun

I mean exactly what, dearest Wiebe!

Aren't we white folk rediculously stupid?

...

In any case, yes I knew what I was writing.

Not to imply that you didn't!

And yes, we are stupid!

Ok. and how would one say: "I hate you, I hate your clothes, I hate your hair, I hate your tastes in fine wine, and your shoe lace is untied. Dick."

...Just wondering ^_^

Omae ga kirai da. Omae no fuku mo kirai da. Omae no wine no shumi mo kirai da. Kutsuhimo hodoketeru zo. Aho.

Substitute Aho (which means stupid) for:

Baka - Fool
Penisu - Male Reproductive Organ
etc. etc.

And now for the real question (which is actually what I meant) how do you WRITE it?

If you've got a Japanese language pack for your browser installed (you <i>do</i>, don't you?), you can go to <a href="http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/wwwjdic.html">this page</a> for translations both ways, and written examples (both in kana and kanji).

silly people. One can learn Japanese best through Dance Dance Revolution music. I recommend Butterfly, Nori Nori Nori (I think that's what it's called...), and Shooting Star.

Or, you could take those "classes" and watch "anim

'Shooting Star' is originally an Anabolic Frolic track, guy.

He's probably the most renowned Happy Hardcore DJ ever, and he's totally white to the max.

I'm off to see him on the 8th!

He's a Toronto local.
