先々週は、私のいしゃは私に新しいくすりをもった。
でも、あのくすりは覚えるのとてもわるいですよ。
いしゃは私に言わなかった。かなしいのです。
それは、今は日本語を練習とてもむずかしい。
文法と漢字と単語を忘れている。
五月は、日本へ行く。日本へ行く前にいしゃは見に行けない。
コンピュータと日本語を書くのやさしいですが、紙と書くのは。。。聞くのは。。。やさしくない。
私の日本語どうですか?よくないですか?

新しいくすりので。。。
Re: 新しいくすりので。。。
You're switching back and forth between plain and polite forms. You ought to pick one and stick with it.
でも、あの薬を飲むと覚えるのがとても悪くなりますよ。maybe.でも、あのくすりは覚えるのとてもわるいですよ。
医者はそれを私に言わなかった。いしゃは私に言わなかった。

I'd probably say あの薬を飲むと記憶力が落ちます。 but that might be too much of a departure from the originalrichvh wrote:でも、あの薬を飲むと覚えるのがとても悪くなりますよ。maybe.でも、あのくすりは覚えるのとてもわるいですよ。
( there is also the phrase もの覚えが悪くなる or もの忘れが増える・激しくなる etc but that may be too strong for this context )
Re: 新しいくすりので。。。
yeah I guess I am confused between polites and plain forms... my friend in osaka seems to switch between forms a lot when she emails me.. so i guess that's pretty much why.
But I don't know what to write instead of です in plain forms. I know about だ, but my friend told me it is very weird to do so..
My sentences are full of mistakes.. ugh.
about this medication story, it's true. I'm pretty mad and sad at the same time.

Re: 新しいくすりので。。。
It's not unusual for Japanese females to switch between plain and polite forms in casual speech or e-mail. Are you male or female? If you are male, do not avoid だ in casual speech, it will make you sound feminine.

Re: 新しいくすりので。。。
I'm male. She also told me to use 僕 not 私, because she says for male 私 is too polite.
like when I say.. やさしいですが
what would be the plain form equivalent? My textbook didnt teach it to me (not yet anyway) =/
I guess my level of japanese is what I deserve... I studied it in the totally wrong way for years (that is, without a textbook, and on and off). I've been using a textbook since last september. My japanese improved greatly, but is still pretty weak.

その日本語で、あまり困らないと思う。
