Thank you so much for your lovely comment on The Clingy One

Thank you for your comment on my MoaB WIP pic XD
I had so much fun making her look utterly disgusted XD

Very good... I will read them as they come out. It's very interesting, I await future chapters... this is the first of your work that I've read I believe but I've heard good things about other works.

Hehe you were on my wall now i'm on yours! Kukuku. :B

Yeah! Florida buddies! I had fun chatting with you; I hope to talk to you in the future!

heheh I'm glad you enjoyed the "terrible" humor of "What Is It?" ^^ Its nice to know that there are other people out there with my odd sense of funny. I'm really glad you got a laugh out of it. Thanks to the great responce from Dokuga "What Is It?" is going from a one-shot to a short chapter series.

I really appreciate all the reviews and encouragement. Thank you.

thank you! i just hope i can do it right, but nice comments always help! ^-^

thankies so uber much for the review on my story, Entwined! it was so appreciated!!! *huggle* especially from such a writer as yourself ^-^

LOL I understand what you said about the dialects...being a Singaporean Chinese, I actually have A LOT of trouble understanding what the mainland Chinese (as in those who come from China) speak. Just like Sesshoumaru in the story, I do not understand a single word of the Shanghai dialect, and even the standard Chinese spoken by Beijing natives and other parts of China are too accented for me to understand at times. It is a difficult language to learn, I guess. It's just that I was born into it, so I never had a choice to begin with

Thank you for liking the story! I've just posted a new chapter, and I hope you like it all the same

Dear Momo, thanks for the lovely review of 'Shanghai' And yes, they actually pronounce the kanji of the characters' names in the Chinese version directly, which is why it sounds totally different.

As for this phrase which Kagome said, "Wo de ming zi jiao A-Lee. Ni ne? (My name is A-Lee. And you are?)" It's actually standard Chinese...LOL. Not that what you've remembered from your classes is wrong, because there are just so many ways one can introduce oneself. She could have said, "Wo shi A-Lee. (I am A-Lee)" and still make perfect sense. Or were you referring to the word 'jiao'? It actually means 'called', so it's something like, "I'm called Kagome", much like in languages like French where one says Je m'appelle instead of Je suis. I hope I've managed to shed some light on it!
