That's all Folks!

So this concludes this academic year. Today was phonetics exam, the last exam of all. It went fairly well considering that I was pretty cream crackered and had to rely on Red Bull power.
Thanks to the inventor of that stuff...
And this leaves me for the other plans for the near future - getting more work, moving and getting wasted. lol




We're free! Woo!

  • In fact, there are kanji for Britain - 英国 － えいこく
    This usage, however, is fairly unusual. I at least stick to the common イギリス...

    Anyways, if you know 'igirisu' you don't really have to know the kanji-word. imho.

    What I wrote second was the very, very uncommon kanji for Austria. :)

  • Or in speach i have tend to find　イングランド　Becoming more and more widely used, especially amongst youngsters.

    英国 Is mainly going to be used in written form, and probably when talking about history, literature or other quite serious stuff right?

  • Probably. I only know it in the case of 米国 which I frequently heard in the news and when talking about economics.

    イングランド could be related to the football team too?
