Rondillo sensei,

I heard of a sentence ending particle in a tv series and it went like,

Hai, so de gozaimasu.

and the translations said

yes it is.

How is this different from saying

Hai so desu?

What might be the difference between the both of them or is it just the same?


Adding gozaimasu is for when you want to make things more formal.

RE: Introducing Yourself in Japanese

Hajimemashite ... Watashiwa nina desu ... Douzo yoroshiku (^_^) ...


-- Is it "Doozo" or "Douzo"? ... I'm studying Japanese now and it has almost two semesters, but I do not really take it seriously hahaha ^_^ ... I saw the character/letter is 'u' not 'o', so it is 'Douzo' ... But, you spell/say it into: Doozo ... With a long 'o' ... Cuz, the letter of 'u' means you spell it with a long 'o' ...

--sorry if I make a mistakes here (^_^)" ...


still try something new ^^

Hajimemashite: How do you do?
Doozo Yoroshiku: It's nice to meet you.

A simple introduction, when meeting a person for the first time, could go like this:

Person 1: Hajimemashite. Rondillo desu.
Person 2: Hajimemashite. Lee Hyori desu.
Person 1: Doozo yoroshiku.
Person 2: Doozo yoroshiku.

Translation
Person 1: How do you do? I am Rondillo.
Person 2: How do you do? I am Lee Hyori.
Person 1: It is nice to Meet you.
Person 2: It is nice to Meet you.


You could also add a few of these greetings with the dialogue:
O-namae wa: What is your name?
Ohayoo gozaimasu: Good morning (formal).
Ohayoo: Good morning (informal).
Konnichi wa: Good afternoon.
Konban wa: Good evening.
O-genki desu ka?: How are you?
Shitsuree shimasu: Excuse me (as in good bye).
Ja mata: See you later.
Ja: See you later (informal).
Sayonara: Goodbye.
O-yasuminasai: Goodnight.

for more expressions, go to this thread.


That will be very helpful because I will be visiting japan next month.

Yep it's Doozo in romaji form but Douzo in Hiragana.

I'm not exactly sure why myself, but you pretty much got it. That's just how it is I guess. どうぞ hehe
