					<description>That was very interesting! I really enjoy the culture lessons a lot.

By the way, this is kind of random, but is Peter from New York? You have a bit of a northern accent. Or is that from living in Japan for so long?</description>

   第二回目　だいにかいめ

thanks

					<description>there is no need to answer my question. Thank-you Jonas-san for answering my email with this question:grin:. Arigatou Gozaimashita (would this be the right time to say that?:roll:).
In case anyone was wondering:
ao and aka are nouns, while putting the i at the end (aoi and akai) makes them adjectives. For example: (sorry if these examples are wrong, someone correct me if they are)
Noun:
Ao wa ichiban desu.
Blue is the best.

Adjective:
Kore wa akai ringo desu.
This is a red apple.

					<description>Ah! this was a great lesson Peter-san and Sakura-san. Did you guys get my email? I didn't know that Rounin weren't frowned upon, that was interesting:grin: You guys are so funny the way you talked about Ryuunen. Thank-you for yet again another great podcast.
And now to the question part of my post:
I have seen blue as ao and aoi, and i think it has something to do with being an adjective or a noun, but i don't really know the what the difference is. Could you explain what the difference is if it isn't to much to ask for. Thank-you for your help.</description>

					<description>Peter, Nathan-san, Marvin-san, こんにちは:razz: It's nice and sunny in Tokyo today. As for Yokoko, I think the term is rather "Hamakko" (someone who was born and grew up in Yokohama; often considered to be fashionable, easy-going, and put "jan" at the end of the sentence, like "iijan" for "that's good"). Unfortunately, I lived far away from the center of Yokohama, and only lived there until I was ten, I don't deserve being called a hamakko:smile: Matane!</description>
