A Guide to Writing Japanese New Years Cards
.The Japanese send New Years cards (nengajo) rather than Christmas cards. If you want to send nengajo to your Japanese friends, here are common greetings and expressions you can write to wish them all the best for the new year. Happy New Year All the following expressions roughly translate as Happy New Year. Choose any of them to begin your card. The saying is listed in kanji, or Japanese letters, on the left and in Romajiâ€â€the writing of Japanese in Roman charactersâ€â€on the right. 明㠑㠾ã â€"㠦ã Šã‚ 㠧㠨ã †ã â€Ã£ â€"㠄㠾ã â„¢  Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu.æâ€" °Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã£ Šã‚ 㠧㠨ã †ã â€Ã£ â€"㠄㠾ã â„¢  Shinnen omedetou gozaimasu.omedetou gozaimasu.è ¬ ¹Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã¦â€" °Ã¥ ¹ ´  Kinga Shinnenæ è ³â‚¬Ã¦â€" °Ã¥ ¹ ´  Kyouga Shinnenè ³â‚¬Ã¦ £  Gashouè ¿Å½Ã¦Ëœ ¥  Geishunè ¬ ¹Ã£â€šâ€œÃ£ §Ã¦â€" °Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã£ ®Ã£ Šåâ€"Å"㠳を熳ã â€"ä ¸Å ã ’ã ¾Ã£ â„¢  Tsutsushinde shinnen no oyorokobi o moushiagemasu. Note that Kinga Shinnen (è ¬ ¹Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã¦â€" °Ã¥ ¹ ´), Kyouga Shinnen (æ è ³â‚¬Ã¦â€" °Ã¥ ¹ ´), Gashou (è ³â‚¬Ã¦ £), and Geishun (è ¿Å½Ã¦Ëœ ¥) are seasonal words that are not used in regular conversation. The rest of the expressions can be used as a greeting. Expressions and Phrases After the greeting, add words of thanks, requests for continued favor, or wishes for health. Here are some common expressions, though you can add your own words as well. The saying is presented first in English, then in kanji, and then in Romaji. Thank you for all your kind help during the past year.æ˜ ¨Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã£ ¯Ã¥ ¤ §Ã¥ ¤â€°Ã£ Šä ¸â€"è © ±Ã£ «Ã£ ªÃ£â€šÅ ã ‚ã‚Šã Å'㠨ã †ã â€Ã£ â€"㠄㠾ã â€"ã ŸSakunen wa taihen osewa ni nari arigatou gozaimashita.

Adding the Date When dating the card, use the word gantan (å…Æ'æâ€" ¦) instead of the date that card was written. Gantan means the morning of Jan. 1; therefore, it is not necessary to write ichi-gatsu gantan. As for the year, the Japanese era name is often used. For example, the year 2015 is Heisei nijuugo-nen (Ã¥ ¹ ³Ã¦Ë† Ã¥ ¹ ´), the 27th year of the era, Heisei. Although nengajo are often written vertically, it is acceptable to write them horizontally. Addressing Cards When sending New Years cards from overseas, the word nenga (Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬) should be written in red on the front side along with a stamp and address. This way, the post office will hold the card and deliver it on Jan. 1. Unlike Christmas cards, nengajo shouldnt arrive before New Years Day. Write your name (and address) at the left side of the card. You can add your own message or draw the picture of the present years zodiacal animal (eto). Who to Send Nengajou To The Japanese send nengajou not only to family and friends but also to classmates, coworkers, and even business partners. However, personal nengajou often play an important role in connecting people. There were many heart-warming stories about nengajou submitted to The Memorable Nengajou Contest (Nengajou Omoide Taishou). Here is the top prize-winning short story in kanji, followed by the story in Romaji. ã€Å'Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã§Å ¶Ã£ £Ã£ ¦Ã£ ªÃ£â€šâ€œÃ£ §Ã£ ™ã ‹ã€ æ˜ ¨Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã£ ‹ã‚‰ç § 㠟㠡㠨åÆ' ã å‡ ºÃ£ â€"ã Ÿå å… æ ³Ã£ ®Ã¥ °â€˜Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£ Å'Ã¥ °â€¹Ã£ ã Ÿã€‚æ ¯ è ¦ ªÃ£ ‹ã‚‰è‚ ²Ã¥â€¦ 憾æ £â€žÃ£ •ã‚Å'ã€ ä »Å ã ¯Ã© ¤Å è ·Ã¦â€" ½Ã¨ ¨ 㠫ã „ã‚‹å ½ ¼Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£â‚¬â€šÃ¥ ®Å¡Ã¦â„¢â€šÃ¥Ë† ¶Ã© «ËœÃ¦ ¡Ã£â€šâ€šÃ£â€šâ€žÃ£â€š 㠦ã â€"㠾㠣ã Ÿå ½ ¼Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£â€šâ€™Ã¨ ¦â€¹Ã£ ‹ã 〠㠆㠡㠮çâ€"…é™ ¢Ã©â€¢ ·Ã£ Å'è ª ¿Ã§ †è £Å"助å“ ¡Ã£ ¨Ã£ â€"㠦雇㠣㠟。 Ã¥ ¹ ³Ã¥ ‡å ¹ ´Ã© ½ ¢Ã¤ ºâ€Ã¥ æ ³Ã£ ®Ã¨ ª ¿Ã§ †å ´Ã£â‚¬â€šÃ¥ å… æ ³Ã£ ®Ã¥ °â€˜Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£ Å'æ ¥ ½Ã£ â€"㠄㠨ã “゠㠨㠯æ€ 㠈㠪ã „ã Å'〠å ½ ¼Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£ ¯Ã¦ ¯Å½Ã¦â€" ¥Ã¥â€¦Æ'æ °â€"㠫や㠣㠦ã る。㠲ょ㠣㠨ã â€"㠦é› ¢Ã£â€šÅ'㠦æš ®Ã£â€šâ€°Ã£ ™æ ¯ è ¦ ªÃ£ ®Ã© ¢Ã¥ ½ ±Ã£â€šâ€™Ã§ § 㠟㠡㠫è ¦â€¹Ã£ ¦Ã£ „る㠮㠋。 Ã¥ ä ¸â‚¬Ã¦Å"ˆå Šã °Ã£â‚¬ Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã§Å ¶Ã£ ®Ã¦ ºâ€"備㠮è © ±Ã© ¡Å'㠫㠪㠣㠟。ã ん㠪ç § 㠟㠡㠮ä ¼Å¡Ã¨ © ±Ã£ «Ã¤ ¸ æ€ è °Ã£ 㠆㠪é ¡â€Ã£ §Ã¥ °â€¹Ã£ ã‚‹å ½ ¼Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£â‚¬â€šÃ§â€ž ¡Ã§ †ã‚‚㠪ã „。æ ¯ è ¦ ªÃ£ ¨Ã¤ ¸â‚¬Ã§ ·â€™Ã£ «Ã£ „ã Ÿé Æ'㠯ã€ ä ½ Ã¥ ±â€¦Ã£â€šâ€™Ã¨ » ¢Ã£â‚¬â€¦Ã£ ¨Ã£ â€"㠦ã „㠟㠨è žã „ã Ÿã€‚å ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã§Å ¶Ã£ ©Ã£ “゠㠧㠯㠪㠋㠣㠟㠮ã ゠㠆。 㠿ん㠪㠧ã “㠣ã ã‚Šå ½ ¼Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£ «Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã§Å ¶Ã£â€šâ€™Ã¥â€¡ ºÃ£ ™ä ºâ€¹Ã£ «Ã¦ ± ºÃ£â€š 㠟。㠟ã 㠕ん㠮å ¹ ¸Ã£ ݋ «Ã¥â€º ²Ã£ ¾Ã£â€šÅ'る㠓㠨ã‚’é ¡ËœÃ£ „。 ã€Å'åˆ ã‚ ã ¦Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã§Å ¶Ã£â€šâ€šÃ£â€šâ€°Ã£ £Ã£ Ÿã€‚å ¤ §Ã¥Ë†â€¡Ã£ «Ã© ¡ 㠫é £ ¾Ã£ £Ã£ Ÿã‚ˆã€‚ã€ ä »â€¢Ã¤ ºâ€¹Ã¥ §â€¹Ã£â€š 㠯å ½ ¼Ã¥ ¥ ³Ã£ ®Ã¦ ºâ‚¬Ã© ¢Ã£ ®Ã§ ¬â€˜Ã© ¡â€Ã£ §Ã¥ ¹â€¢Ã£ Å'éâ€"‹ã „㠟。 Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¨ ³â‚¬Ã§Å ¶Ã£ ¯Ã£ ™ã ¹Ã£ ¦Ã£ ®Ã¤ º ºÃ£â€šâ€™Ã¥ ¹ ¸Ã£ ݋ «Ã£ â€"㠦ã ã‚Å'る。 Nengajou tte nan desu ka.

Computer Literacy Is The Level Of Proficiency And Fluency
1. Explain computer literacy. Computer literacy is the level of proficiency and fluency someone possesses amid computers. Nevertheless, computer literacy commonly implies to the capability to manipulate applications rather than to program. Entities who are vastly computer literate are from time to time identified as power users (Computer Literacy , n.d.). Computers have affected each of our lives: the manner by how we work, the manner of how we learn, the manner in which we live, yet even the means we play. It virtually is unfeasible to progress complete a single day without coming upon a computer, an apparatus reliant on a computer, information created by a computer, or a word that was established or whose implication has transformed with the introduction of computers. However, because of the importance of computers in today’s world, it is essential to be computer literate. 2. Explain computer algorithms and its significance. A computer algorithm is a method or formula for deciphering a problem, based on accomplishing a sequence of quantified actions. A computer program can be regarded as an intricate algorithm. In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm ordinarily entails a lesser technique that answers an intermittent question. Algorithms are commonly managed thru every area of information technology. A search engine algorithm, selects search strings of keywords and functions as input, explores its linked database for applicable web pages, and returns findings.
