Hello,

could someone who speaks japanese translate me some expressions, please ?

1- "sunflower girl"
2- "Veronica" (the flower, not the girl's name - if there is a difference in japanese, cause in french not - yes, I'm french)
3- "Iris"

Thanx for replies =)

Sun flower is himawari if you want to know how to right it and have a japanese encoding 向日葵 is the kanji.
ヒマワリ is the katakana and ひまわり is the hirigana.

Onna is women onnanoko is girl 女 is the kanji. おんな is the hirigana and オンナ is the katakana. and noko for girl のこ.

shoujou is also another way to say girl

as far as I know Iris is spelt アイリス or airisu

'tis "shoujo," not "shoujou," by the way. Good research on sunflower, tho'! WATCH that you don't write the long 'o' sound into "shojo" or you get virgin, a disastrous mixup. I recall at one poiny seeing way too many "Pretty Virgin Sailor Moon" sites crop up from Bishojo instead of Bishoujo. Hmm.....

Woah there thanks for catching that Maou. I had it right infront of me and I wrote it wrong. I was never really too fond of romaji :P

I use a Japanese word processor from NJstar

They also have a chinese one.
