Club-to-death Angel! Dokuro Chan! *laughing her head off* What an...interesting anime. We watched in anime club but had to switch it really fast to 'Kogepan' when the teacher walked in *laughing*

Then we had a sub and he watched it with us o.O''

Thanks for the list, though ^^ Very useful.

i'' probably read that when i'm home and not in school.. here's one of mine to add..

子犬を飼った。

[i got a puppy.]

note: the katta here is from the word kau, which in this case means 'to raise' instead of 'to buy'..

oh well, its still a very useful list, thanks

3nodding Dame=stop it/stop
Itai=Ouch/that hurts


Dame means more of "bad" or "no good," but can be used as "stop" in some contexts (Like when the child wants to shake hands with fire). It works well as a rebuke or discouragement.
