With some help, I finally got on what I thought was the right train. There was only one other person in the car with me but I did my best and asked if I was on the right train. He responded with one word that sounded like "よろせ." I had never heard that phrase before, but I took it for an affirmative since it sounded like 宜しい. The train did indeed go to Miyanoshita after all, so it worked out great! So, what does よろせ mean? Was it slang?

Korekaramo douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu!:razz: Dominic-san, very interesting point. Nowadays 朝飯前 is used as a general term, but as you say, the term seems to have been very frequently used by 江戸っ子 when being asked to do something. So, there is a brisk air to it. また何か気づいたことがありましたら、是非コメントしてくださいね！:razz: iYensLoveit-san, thank you for the posts. Korekaramo douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu! :razz:
