On the other hand, when something is far from both of you and the person who you are speaking to, you would use "ano." :wink: kiki-chan,

It’s confusing!!! Japanese actually pronounce the "r" as something very close to "l" anyway. So it is good that you are pronouncing it this way. :) Robyn-san,

the simple answer is

desu = it is
desu ne = it is (right?)
deshou = it might be (isn’t it?)

it’s a bit more complicated than that, but that’s a good place to start. keep listening and with exposure you’ll get down pat! :mrgreen:
