max,
maxの餌食っちゃったー。太太(タイタイ)って何だろうな。漢字が読めるけど、意味がわかんないなぁ。中国語だろ?説明してくれないか?(you asked for casual japanese last time, so hope that’s cool with you)
Mr.Jeffさん、

thanks for thinking of us while making your site! that means a lot to all of us!!
yes, we have a banner!! and you can make money from it, actually…
http://www.japanesepod101.com/affiliate-program/
as for the forum, i guess you don’t have to ask there now
but if you think your site will interest other listeners, maybe the forum is a good place to post something to invite them to check out your page!
i realize some people might feel dated by this one, but i’m a little curious…
what’s the first video game you ever played?
Q: 皆さん、 初めてやったテレビゲームは何でしたか?
A: 初めてやったのはPONGですが、一番好きなのはtetrisです。

Hmmm…this is a great lesson. I don’t find it easy.
There are a few things I don’t understand.
1. Can someone kindly explain to me しちゃだめ? How is it being used?
Wednesday at 1:10 am
They explained in the lesson that it’s a contraction of してはダメ, as in
テレビゲームはしてはダメです。
“Playing video games is not allowed.”
If you follow the てはいけない link you can probably find other lessons on this point.

ね、casualにしよう!敬語はどこでも聞けるから、casualのチャンスがあって、ちょっと嬉しい。不自然の気持ちですか?
ところで、太太は確かに中国語!奥さんと言う意味。ガランテ太太は「太太」と呼べれば、彼女は嬉しくなるかもよ!言って見て!

Funny lesson, poor guy, I know how does it feels when you reach a cool level in a video game and suddenly… the mysterious hand that turns off the video game console,
Haha, ironically, since I arrived to Japan I haven’t played video games, I want to but I shouldn’t otherwise I will be playing all day
