"Don't say such hurtful things, please" and more from - Hirugao ep.1 (I)

Lesson for today is from a hilarious recent drama "Hirugao". I will post more expressions from the first episode soon.

Don't worry if you don't know all grammatical structures. Try to understand their context and read the translation!

Short expressions


そんな冷たいこと言わないで! 
sonna tsumetai koto iwanaide
- Don't say such hurtful things./Don't be so cold hearted.

あの、お怪我は大丈夫ですか? 
ano.. o-kega ha daijoubu desuka?
- Excuse me, but is how is your injury? (polite language)

結構です 
kekkou desu.
- I'm fine, thanks./Thanks, but no.

And now an advanced dialogue

A: あ、ごめんママ先行くよ! 
(Ah, gomen mama, saki iku yo!)
B: え?。。。本当はママなんて呼ばれたくありません。でも、夫は子供のいない私を喜ばせているつもりです。わざわざ傷つけることもないです。
(Ee?...hontou ha mama nante yobaretaku arimasen. demo, otto ha kodomo no inai watashi wo yorokobasete iru tsumori desu. wazawaza kizutsukeru koto mo nai desu.)

A: Sorry, but I'll head off first, mama!
B: E? (inner monologue begins:) Actually, I don't want to be called stuff like "mama" but, my husband thinks it makes me, who doesn't have children, happy. (non-having-children-me).
He isn't doing it to hurt me on purpose.

Japanese lessons introduction

Before we start, I wanted to shortly introduce the purpose of the blog and the best way you can benefit from it. How it started I've been learning Japanese for four years now. But besides studying I enjoy watching Japanese TV shows. Until now, I couldn't find a page, where I could learn Japanese dialogues from dramas or movies written down (you know, with proper kanji and so on). With reading and translation, so I have decided to do it myself. That's why I have started this blog. All expressions I translate by myself, so if you have any suggetions, let me know in the comments. How to learn from dramas The best thing you can do to learn Japanese with this blog is to study expressions in each post, and later try to hear them during watching a drama.

I will be including infomation about the episode's number only, so all the fun finding the expressio...
