Another book added to my collection. Silly, but damn useful and fun, I will have to rank it up there next to my Kansai-ben book. A nice buy at only 10 bucks USA. Starting back up into school was a bit of a drag as the kids weren't really quite into it yet, until I got to the 1-12 class and spiced up the daily questions a bit. Going from "How was your summer vacation?" to "What's 'Oshiri pen pen' in English" was quite funny for me and the kids. I love this book, its my new evil English tool to make kids sweat. What is "oshiri pen pen"? Try explaining how you get spanked by your mom when your bad in another language in front of the class. If ya can do it, you are good. And well, the student did a good job indeed, although it seems that the "butt, aka ass" is referred to the "hip" in the eyes of the Japanese. Maybe I will teach them the correct terminology next class.
